I uploaded the theme then activated it and installed all the required plugins for it. Then I imported the demo data from appearance. It imported successfully but then nothing appears on the page. Its all blank pages that come from the demo data of the theme.

Can you share a link to your site?

Try this;

Appearance > Customize > Site Identity

If you see the demo.dat or xml file in there. Remove it and upload your own logo.

Thanks – Steve

I noticed that the side share buttons on a post are only visible, when “display sidebar” is turned off. It this normal?

That’s correct, to save space side share buttons are not visible when using the sidebar.

This may change when I release the next major update.

Thanks – Steve

Pinning with the pinterest button does not work, I keep getting the error: Sorry! Something went wrong. Please make sure the URL is correct and try again.

www.mariskavos.nl

Any idea how I can solve this?

Well I tried with the firefox pinterest function (that gives an option to pin a photo from a webpage to pinterest) But that does work.

That’s not the same thing.

Can you pin this page? http://www.3forty.media/ruki/an-delighted-offending-curiosity-my-is-dashwoods/

I have no issues pinning it.

Thanks – Steve

The web host solved it, thank you!

How can I change the text “Ago”? Loco translate plugin does not appear either.

You need to translate Ruki Theme Boost plugin

Thanks.

Hi! Two questions:

Can I hide the Site Identity entirely?

I was wondering if it was possible to hide the title of pages on the actual page?

If not, I’m thinking I could do it through CSS.

Hi,

What do you mean by site identity?

The option to hide the title is in the next update. Until then here’s some CSS;

.page .single-page .entry-title { display:none; }

Thanks – Steve

Thanks Steve!! I meant site title, correct. I said “Site Identity” because that’s how customizer referred to it; apologies for the confusion.

But I’ll use this CSS until the next update. Appreciate your help!

Hi! Just purchased your theme yesterday and already loving how much I can do with it but I have quite a few issues that I am hoping you can help me with.

1. I am trying to put a pic of myself for the “about me” widget that goes on the side and I can’t get it to work with this theme. I have tried even using a media and text widget but that’s not working either. I’ve seen 2 bloggers that have this widget working fine so I don’t know what I am doing wrong.

2. Is there any way to change the color of the main navigation (not the sticky header)

3. I have no idea what “post blocks” are for because they aren’t working even when I enable the block.

4. Is there a way to change and increase the font? I’ve tried to use the custom CSS code you gave someone else (to increase menu font size) but that’s not working either.

5. When I try to edit a specific widget using shift-click it doesn’t do anything at all.

Sorry that it’s so much stuff but I am just trying to get it to look a certain way :) Please help. TIA!

Please help :)

Hi,

Thanks for your message.

1. Ruki does not include an “about me” widget so I’m assuming this is a third party widget. Can you share a link so I can see what the issue might be?

2. The header colour setting affects the entire header. You can then set an alternative sticky header background that is triggered when the header “sticks” after scrolling down the page in Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Color Settings > Header Colors

If you want to change the just the primary nav background without changing the header you would need some custom CSS for the specific header you are using. What header layout are you using?

3. You need to enable post block in theme settings. Here’s a short video for one of my discontinued themes that shows how to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htoDfBp4G7A

4. Do you just want to increase primary menu font size?

5. Ruki widgets use content escaping (for security) on all widgets, I’ll modify this in the next update to re-enable selective refresh of Ruki widgets

Thanks – Steve

Hi! Thanks for replying back to me.

I have attached a screenshot about what I am talking about with the “about me” widget at the bottom. This is what I am trying to get in my homepage and I see no way to put it.

I also followed the video you sent to help me with the post block but like I said, it isn’t working. Since you said it is from an older themes, there are things that shows up in the video that isn’t in the post block setting so that isn’t working either. The post block setting is enabled and nothing is showing up.

I am using Demo 7.

And yes, I would like to increase the font size of the menu only. Where exactly to do I put the custom code and how?

Thanks!

Hi,

This isn’t a widget it’s the author page header set to display inside the loop rather than at the top of the page.

It takes the author avatar, social sites and bio and dispays them as you see.

Users > profile

Set you social media urls, bio and avatar

Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Theme Settings > Archive/Category Settings: Archive Header

Set position and toggle elements.

It looks like you have set specific posts in the block settings but have not entered your post ID’s. Change the post type to Recent Posts and thay will show your recent posts. If you want to use Post ID’s enter a comma separated list if post IDs in the post ID’s field.

Demo 7 does not use post blocks, but if you want to use them; Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Theme Settings > Homepage Settings > Post Loop Display Type: Custom Post Blocks.

Then set you blocks as you like.

Custom CSS goes in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS

.primary-nav li { font-size: 0.875rem; }

Change size to whatever you need.

Thanks – Steve

Hi!! Is it possible to add a social media icon for Twitch to the Ruki Social Media settings??

This would be extremely helpful! Love the theme btw.

Hi,

No problem, I’ll add that in the next update.

Thanks – Steve

It seems there is a bug with the Posts Widget. When I chose the option Specific Posts and select some writing their ID, it just doesn’t work, and random posts are being randomly picked at each refresh. Could you please fix it, or if I do something wrong, to tell me how to proceed? Thank you

Hi,

Post ID’s should be comma separated (E.g. 153,79,125) and select “Specific posts” as the post type. That’s all you need to do.

I’ve just tested this and it works.

I hope this helps.

Thanks – Steve

Hi,

I just installed the Ruki demo and imported the demo data (demo7). Now, the top header menu is very large (see screenshot): https://ibb.co/5ktK2tQ

Instead of having all menu items in one line, they are suddenly arranged below each other. I did not configure this on purpose. How can I fix this?

Best regards

It looks like you need to assign your menus.

Appearance > Menus.

Assign Primary Menu to Primary Menu: http://3forty.media/docs/ruki/#navigation

Thanks – Steve

That helped! Thanks Steve!

What this plugin do – Ruki: Theme Boost Pack

Read time, category slugs, human readable dates, image quality

Hi my ruki related posts plug in is not working, it continually says it needs updating but doesn’t properly update

Hi,

That’s fixed. I’ve updated the download file. You can now download and install the latest version.

Thanks – Steve

Hi thankyou :)! that helped, unfortunately i’m having another problem where the demo data content isn’t showing up after i install it.

Have you installed data via one of the demos using One Click Demo Install? Depending on your server limits it may time out or abort demo data if the data exceeds your maximum upload or execution time.

Hello Team, How can I add tags below the search bar on the search modal. Link – https://ibb.co/kMRCzq7 Thanks in Advance

Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Theme Settings > General Settings > Show Tags in Site Search (You need to actually have some tags)

And how to add this search icon on search widget?- https://ibb.co/vLn6bvr

That’s the classic/legacy search widget. There is an update coming that adds support for more of the block widgets (inc the search block).

Thanks – Steve

I will add support for both styles in the next update.

Thanks – Steve

1. How to add this Section? – https://ibb.co/CbJj37B 2. How to remove website input field from comment section?

Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Related Posts

Website input field is part of WP core. You can try this plugin to edit/remove comment fields: https://wordpress.org/plugins/comment-link-remove/

I am receiving an unidentified http error at wp-content/themes/ruki/ruki.template#template on line 43

Please advise.

“ruki.template” is not a theme file. Are you running a modified version?

If you can share a link I will have a look for you.

Hello. Can you advice to add back to top button at bottom corner without adding additional plugin?

Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Theme Settings > General Settings: Show back to top on scroll

How to remove the featured image from above the post?

Ref: https://snipboard.io/7jIgLW.jpg

You can remove featured images on a per post basis.

New/Edit post: Settings Panel: Ruki Single post Options > Disable Featured Image/media

Please have option at site level single.php and page.php

Hi, pre sales query. I’m checking the demos. It appears that the entire page loads at once. Like entire content is being lazy loaded. Can this be changed to disable lazy loading?

Hi,

Lazyload is now part of WP core (since wp5.5). There are some plugins available that disable it although I have not tried them. Ruki uses native WP lazyload and only loads media/images when the content is in the viewport..

I hope this helps

Thanks – Steve
