Is there a way that I only have the red menu but the featured posts remain blank? currently I keep the whole block in red.

Can you send me a screenshot at support@major-themes.com

Hi,

I have a question regarding one UX issue.

When the article is open, the number of comments on the page is not visible until you actually click on the button here: http://prntscr.com/t2h9if

Is there any way to show the number of comments on that button? So it will look like this: http://prntscr.com/t2ha4l

If there is no comments on the page, no number should be shown. If there are comments, their number is shown in brackets.

Is there a way to do it?

Hello Eolit,

In WordPress Dashboard > Themes > Theme Editor open file comments.php and after line 12:

esc_html_e('Show comments', 'aena2');

Insert this code:

echo " (".get_comments_number().")";

Hello,

Thank you!

I have one more question if you don’t mind. The button “Back to top” doesn’t appear on the mobile viewports – is there any way to add it there?

Please let me know

Hello Eolit,

You can add this code to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

@media (max-width: 823px) {
    body button.scrolltop {
        display: block !important;
    }
}

Click “Publish” and try incognito mode or clear cache of your mobile device.

“Back to top” should be visible.

We tried to install the aena theme that we bought on pavloselenis.com but it doesnt work.

Seems like the theme is installed and activated on the website you’ve linked. Hope everything is working correctly.

Just in case you need help with installation or customization you can contact me here in comments or at support@major-themes.com

Hey guys, I have a question: How do I remove this reading time counter: http://prntscr.com/sc1zfn?

It is not working properly with Cyrillic localization. Also, I can’t translate it in Loco translate.

Is there any way I can hide or disable it?

I cannot disable it from plugins in WordPress as it seems it is some sort of in-built feature.

Thank you

Hello Eolit,

The easiest way to do this is to show the actual sizes of images (not cropped)

You can use the code below for this:

@media (max-width: 823px) {
    .blog_layout-list .blog-feed article .post-image-wrap .post-image-cover {
        display: none !important;
    }
    .blog_layout-list .blog-feed article .post-image-wrap {
        height: auto !important;
    }
    .blog_layout-list .blog-feed article .post-image-wrap .post-image {
        display: block !important;
    }
}

Thank you! I’ll try this.

Will you please have a look at my previous message? Here’s the copy:

I’ve noticed that the date of article publication is an actual link and it links to the same article.

For example, if there is an article “Article 1” with a date of publication 5th May, the “5th May” text is also an anchor text for the link to “Article 1”. See here: http://prntscr.com/sgfm2n

Also, this link has “rel=bookmark”.

Is there any way to remove that link?

Without editing the theme files you can use this CSS code:

.content-singular .post-date-min, .content-singular .post-date { pointer-events: none; }

Hi, just purchased theme and currently modifying it. There is lot of glitches. For example, if im in ‘edit’ > ‘content’ and changing the blog layout from grid to masonry, contect stacks in top of eachother and everything is a big mess. Another problem is when i save settings for example sidebar ‘left’ and leave the edit mode to see site live, the settings have not been changed. Any ideas whats happening?

Few other questions:

1) How can i disable the top bar (bar where the social networks logo are on demosite)

2) Can i manually set line-height for sidebar items for example latest posts and archive

3) Can i disable ‘read more’ button in bloglist -> I want to show full content of the short texts in there.

4) Where can one adjust font sizes for post titles and body font?

5) Can u disable the line under the post title?

Hello eljago,

Great support! All the questions were answered and problems solved. Thanks again :)

You’re welcome, let me know if there is anything else i can help you with! :)

Hello. I just installed WordPress from scratch, and your theme (in “aena” configuration). I cannot change the header style: I change it in config panel, but i cannot get the “header two” layout (the one with logo in the middle). what am I missing?

thank you in advance

The theme is beautiful, the problem of changing the header I solved it, but I am convinced that the import of the demo was not successful. The demo home page was not imported correctly, the 3 blocks and other configurations do not come out like the demo! I purchased license, and in import I see myself, media import failed. Can you help me? Also because I liked to reproduce the three category blocks on the home page. Thanks

Hello befaro,

1. You should set style set to “custom” in WordPress customizer to modify the pre-defined settings

2. Unfortunately media files (images) can’t be imported because the license only applies to theme, images are soled separately.

3. To reproduce three category blocks you should create a category, for example “Featured” add posts to this category and go to Appearance > Customize > Content > Top Featured Category, and select the category you’ve created.

I can help you configure everything, just send me a message or let me know if you still have questions at support@major-themes.com

Hello,

I just installed the theme and started customizing in Wordpress. All my legacy content looks fine. Only open question: I cannot figure out how to turn the buttons (read more, “by”) into German ones. Is it possible at all?

Hello meerbuschfresh-begi,

Yes it’s possible you can use Loco Translate plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/

And here is step-by-step guide on how to use this plugin in documentation: https://major-themes.com/doc/aena.html#4.4

- Luke

Luke, thanks for the quick response and the support. It worked beautifully!

Great, let me know if you will have more questions :)

Hello,

I’m currently having issues, i’ve just installed the theme and i’m trying to make changes using the customiser. However when I make the change, it doesn’t save it on leaving the editor?

Hello jcshharvey,

In order to make changes in pre-defined settings in style sets you should first deselect the style set in Appearance > Customize > Style set > Set it to “Custom”.

Let me know if this helps.

- Luke

Hi guys,

I am using the Atlas layout.

When I go on Customize >> Header >> Header layout >> And choose “Three” , the layout doesn’t change and keep showing the “Five” layout. I click on save, refresh, do it again and nothing. Can you help me?

Thank you and have a good one.

Hello mvcpm,

Probably you’ve set the style set that overrides the customized styles. You can select the custom style set or message me at support@major-themes.com with access to WordPress admin panel so i can fix this.

- Luke

Hello, do you post somewhere what’s new and what’s been updated in the latest release? Thank you

It’s new version with new design, you can install both of them or use only previous version.

It was made as separate theme so you won’t loose your previous customizations in case you’ll replace it.

Could you please advise how to update the theme without losing previous customizations and settings? I use Aena-child theme. If I overwrite the folder Aena with the newly downloaded one, all settings are lost.

New version does not add any new feature except the Retrowave design:

https://demo.major-themes.com/aena/retrowave/

In case you want to use it, you should re-configure the theme. If you want to stay on previous design you don’t need to update.

Hi there, is this template compatible with RSS feed aggregator like these or others? - https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rss-aggregator/ - http://rssmixer.com/

Thanks so much!

Hello, daniellebushrow!

Aena theme was not tested with this plugins, but let me know if there will be some issues.

- Luke

I love the theme and I’m considering to buy it. I wanted to ask if you’re planning to add an automated dark mode based on the OS light/dark theme.

Thank you! Can you also tell me where I can see the theme’s changelog? So I can keep an eye when this or other features are going to be released

I will keep all future updates in the theme description.

Also i will notify you when the dark mode will be available.

Thank you ☺️

Hello. I just installed WordPress from scratch, and your theme (in “atlas” configuration). I cannot change the header style: I change it in config panel, but i cannot get the “header two” layout (the one with logo in the middle). what am I missing?

thank you in advance d.

Hello, beccoblu!

First of all i want to thank you for purchasing Aena theme and i will happily answer all your questions.

Indeed, when selecting the style set it automatically changes every option to pre-defined. So to make changes to the design you should select “Custom” style set. And after this you’ll be able to customize the design for your needs.

I can set up all options to match the “Atlas” design for you if you wish. Just send me a message at support@major-themes.com

I sincerely apologize for this minor inconvenience and in the future updates this issue will be fixed.

Can you tell me why pictures would not show up on pages or blog posts? Do I need to adjust some setting?

Hello, Melissa!

Can you give more details on this issue? Or send me a link to your website at support@major-themes.com

If you’re imported demo content and demo pictures are not showing up, that is because pictures are licensed only to show on demo website and they are not sold together with the theme so they can’t be imported.

- Luke

Hi there. Absolutely love the theme and we’ve been using, but unfortunately we aren’t getting the social media icons to show up. Can you assist as to why it’s just squares instead of the logo icons?

Hey!

Thank you, that’s very nice to hear :)

Can you send me a link to your website at support@bekento.space so i can check what’s wrong with social icons.

- Luke

HI,

im trying to change the fonts using customizer. issue is the changes are not getting saved. Changes get lost after i exit the customizer:

Saved https://screencast.com/t/h4kIO20GRIXf Changes lost: https://screencast.com/t/b6eGfhax7XaB

Hey, raja314!

Sometimes this happens when font you’re about to use does not have the font weight available. You can check all fonts at https://fonts.google.com/

You can set the fonts you want to use in Customizer (that are not working) and send me access to WordPress admin panel at support@bekento.space and i will check what is causing this issue.

Hello! Thank you so much for creating this wonderful theme. I am brand new to this and not very good with technical things, however I’m loving it so far. I’ve encountered an issue, at section 1.3 of the documentation. It says “Download “Demo Data” from Marketplace and unzip it, you will see the .xml files” – is this referring to the marketplace on bluehost? If so, I cannot find “demo data” anywhere on this tab. Any help would be appreciated! Many thanks, Maddie

Hello, Maddie!

In ThemeForest Downloads section you can find 2 zip archives – one is just the theme itself, the second is full archive that includes demo data, offline documentation and child theme.

Here is a link: https://themeforest.net/downloads

Hope this helps :)

- Luke

Hi Luke, thanks for your help. I have another stupid question to ask, I’m afraid. Whilst editing some things around, I have moved the little section that holds my picture (in a circle) and my bio to the top center of the page, rather than the right hand side lower down on the page where it originated. I’ve got no idea how to move it back, I have had a play around with the widgets but with no avail. Sorry for the lack of technical words, but I hope you understand and can help! Many thanks, Maddie

Hey, Maddie!

Send me access to your website at support@bekento.space and i will help you with this issue :)
