Featured article images are not shown as featured image like in the demo but they are shown instead of the header image in posts. How can this be fixed?

Hello, Ece1!

This is a default behavior when you select the Header Background Image in Customizer. You can remove the Header Background Image and featured image will show up just like in demo.

It was made because the featured image after the header image ruins the aesthetics of theme design.

If you would still like the featured image to be under the header image you can go to Appearance – Editor select “Theme Header” (header.php) and replace file contents with this file: https://hastebin.com/raw/ruviruposu

Thanks, this worked perfectly!

The Norway theme is not working properly with IE 11. There are error messages when using the demo version and on my site the logo (.png, added via theme customiser) is not shown and the header background image is displayed distorted.

Will this be fixed and if yes, what is the timing?

Thank you!

Hi Max, we have already built a child theme and the first header issue is solved. However we still have the issue that the logo is not shown in the header. How would you fix this issue? Our developer will integrate it in our child theme accordingly.

Please also note that IE11 is still supported by MS. IE10 support has stopped 2 years ago, IE11 is a current Windows browser.

Unchecking the “Retina logo” in Appearance – Customize – Header solves the logo issue.

IE11 don’t support “srcset” for retina images:

Thanks, this worked perfectly!

Hi again, your previous comment solved my problem with buddypress on desktop and tablet versions. However, the registration form on mobile version mixes with footer picture and some part of the form cannot be seen on the screen when using mobile. Do you have any comment or solution for this problem?

Okay, I removed featured posts from main post loop and fixed the BuddyPress register form on mobile.

Great. Everything works very well. Thanks a lot

You’re welcome! :)

Hi there, i’ve been using norway theme for while and almost finished the setup of my blog. Finally, i decided to add register/login widget and page via buddypress plugin. I attached the wigdet to the sidebar and it works well. I also i included a registration page, which is linked with registration widget. However, registration page doesn’t show the registration form and the registration page is blank. I checked all support forums and reinstalled the buddypress but the problem still continues. I think the Problem is somehow related with the template. Do you have any solution for this problem?

Hello, asonmezyildiz!

The theme does not support BuddyPress officially. BuddyPress was not tested with this theme and I did not guarantee that it will be working with this theme at all.

BuddyPress has some weird way of injecting it’s content into pages, to make it work go to Appearance – Editor – “content-page.php” and replace everything inside with this: https://hastebin.com/raw/ojubikevos

The content will be visible. I recommend also changing using the child theme for edits, because after next update all changes will be replaced.

Hi guys, I have a problem with the theme font. I tried to change the browser but when I open the site does not display the default font and replace it with another, how can I solve?

Hey, Roberto!

Some fonts don’t have the same font weight as others, you can check first here: https://fonts.google.com/ and test the one you want.

Most of them have the weight 400 (Regular).

This should help :)

I’m experiencing issues with the header in my posts. The photo is being stretched and looks both blurry and pixelated. Is there a way to fix that? I’m tried resizing my photos several times and nothing seems to work.

Hey, 1kmileboots!

I recommend using image with dimension 16:9 or 16:10 with a size over 1920×1080 pixels or higher.

This should make your featured image look great both on retina, mobile/tablet and standard displays :)

If this won’t help please send link to your website at support@major-themes.com i will try to figure out what is causing this issue.

Max

Hello,

how can I disable the Norway-Theme-Gallery? I want to use Easy-Fancy-Box. Many thanks for your help.

Greetings Uwe

Hey, Uwe!

I can help you on this :)

Go to Appearance – Editor, open folder “JS” and edit “site.js” file. Remove the following lines (from 8 to 20) see the screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/tenbOm0.png

Hope this helps!

O, and:

- Can I change the caroussel / top featured layout to a static image?

- Cam I change the grey coloured overlay of the pictures on the homepage?

1. Yes, you can edit the theme files in Appearance – Editor – Main Index Template (index.php) – Remove the code https://i.imgur.com/VpVFnTZ.png and insert this code replacing IMAGE with the image URL:

<div class="top-featured-posts-image">
    <img src="IMAGE" />
</div>

The code will look like this: https://i.imgur.com/hKmA1Bd.png

2. To remove grey overlay copy-paste the code to Appearance – Customize – Additional CSS:

.featured-more-link { display: none !important; } 

If i correctly understood this will be removed: https://i.imgur.com/E4Dx6rz.png

Hey! Thanks for the previous help! A few other questions:

- I would love to add a black border around the top Feautured layout (caroussel). Can I do that?

- Can I also change the width and height of the caroussel?

- Can you give me the shortcode to change the meta data font?

- How to move the Instagram plugin from the side bar to the footer?

Thanks!

Hey, shintalempers!

1. The code to add the border around top featured layout go to Appearance – Customize – Additional CSS:

Example1:

.top-featured-posts { border: 1px solid #000; } 

Example2:

.top-featured-posts {
    border-top: 1px solid #000;
    padding: 10px;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}

2. The same way you can change the width and height of top featured container:

.top-featured-posts {
    max-width: 1000px; /* width */
    height: 100vh; /* VH - percentage of screen */
    min-height: 0; /* reset */
    max-height: none; /* reset */
}

3. To change the post meta font you can use this code:

.post-meta {
    font-family: "Font Name";
    font-weight: 400;
}

4. You can move widget to footer area https://i.imgur.com/JyBQ8ZR.png Or insert your Instagram username in Appearance – Customize – Footer – Instagram Username (it will look like on demo).

This should help :)

I also want to change the main navigation menu font. Let me know how!

Yes, here is the code:

.main-nav {
    font-family: "Font Name";
    font-weight: 400;
}

You can use Logo / Heading or Body font family used from Google Fonts as the font for navigation: https://fonts.google.com/

Or any Web Safe Fonts: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_websafe_fonts.asp

Hi! Great theme. Can I change the logo size, and the body font size with additional CSS? Do you have the code for me?

Cheers

Hey, shintalempers!

Thank you :)

Yes, absolutely.

The logo font size can be changed in Appearance – Customize – Header – Logo Font Size.

The logo image size can be changed by copy-pasting the code to Appearance – Customize – Additional CSS:

.logo-wrap img {
    width: 150px;
    height: auto;
}

Body Font size can be changed by pasting this code in the same location:

body, .content p {
    font-size: 14px;
}

Hope this helps :)

Hello,

I would like to know if your theme allows to have Full posts with links on the homepage. I would like to have all my recent blog post to be displayed in full on the homepage including any links I have in those posts.

Thank you.

Hello!

Yes, you can list full posts on home page, but it is only available for Standard blog layout (Not a default grid).

Just don’t add the “more” tag in post and the posts will show up with links, images, etc. on the home page

Heya! I’m having an issue with sizing the featured photo on my posts. No matter what pixel size I use, the featured photo comes out a little blurry. Is there a specific size I should be using that works for the theme (in WordPress)? Thanks! :)

Hey, 1kmileboots!

I recommend using image with dimension 16:9 or 16:10 with a size over 1920×1080 pixels or higher.

This should make your featured image look great both on retina, mobile/tablet and standard displays :)

Hi, i have another problem with the title. My SEO Tools find four H1 on your Site. The First is an empty one (leere Überschrift).. How can i fix it?

Thanks JJ

H1 Leere Überschrift H1 Reisemagazin | breitengrad53.de H1 Kategorie: AIDA H2 Leere Überschrift

Hello, JJ!

As you can see on Norway demo there is only one H1 – Site title and Post Title if inside the post.

Can you send a link to your website at support@major-themes.com i’ll try to figure out what is causing this issue.

Announcement

If Instagram images are not loading Instagram Widget needs to be updated to v. 2.0.3

You can do this in Plugins – WP Instagram Widget – Update Now

For some reason, when I click on Plugins, there are no recommended plugins listed. I’ve browsed your documentation and comments for the answer and I can’t find anything regarding the Instagram, Twitter or MJR plugin that should be installed.

Is it possible that something isn’t working properly because I’ve installed Norway in a custom WordPress setup? https://roots.io/bedrock/

It’s not in “Plugins” directly.

Try first accessing “Appearance” menu and then selecting “Install Plugins”

Here is a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/gKUbHWn.png

Can you senx access to WordPress admin panel at support@major-themes.com

I will try to figure out what’s causing this

Max, i think I found the reason why the icons disappear.

I changed the URL from “andre.klose.com” to “www.andreklose.com”. When I change it back, icons are back.

So what I have to do in order to have www.andreklose.com and see the social icons.

Thx, ANdré

Hey, André!

Actually i can see all the social icons, here is a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/KRJ6BVL.png

The screen is from www.andreklose.com URL.

Can you try accessing your website from incognito mode or other browser?

Max, thank you. I really works. Sorry and thanks for looking it. André

You’re welcome, André! :)
