Hello Ruki, How can I change the font globally?

how can I upload own font and use it on the site?

That’s beyond the scope of theme support but there are plenty of guides available online.

Thanks – Steve

hi! how to add a social button with the name “Share” (in Polish udostępnij) at the end of the post, like here: https://imgur.com/a/RoRQoHQ ?

Ruki theme includes share buttons as you see here: https://3forty.media/docs/zosia/#upgradetfmthemeboost

If you want different buttons or options you will need to install a custom plugin

Thanks – Steve

Hi, I have this error, could you help me fix it?

Form elements must have labels

Fix all of the following: Form element has explicit <label> that is hidden<input type=”search” id=”wp-block-search__input-1” class=”wp-block-search__input” name=”s” value=”” placeholder=”” required=””>

Hi,

This is the Wordpress core search block not a theme element. If you are getting an error you would need to direct this to WordPress support.

Thanks – Steve

Hi , do you plan to update the ruki theme for the newest wordpress version at least 6.1 or 6.2 ? I saw your change logs documentation but you stopped recently updating this theme and I’m worried. The previous changes to the wordpress version were made much faster… Please let me know because Im considering purchasing this theme

Hi,

Ruki is fully compatible with WP6.x. I released an update on 20th Feb 2023 that fixed wp6.x editor compatibility issues and another minor update on 8th March 2023 https://3forty.media/docs/ruki/#changelog

I hope this helps

Thanks – Steve

I’ve updated the “software version” compatibility in the item details.

thanks ;) , i just purchased

Hi! I have purchased this theme. When I share links on my facebook page the image won’t show. And when debugging the link I get an error message saying:

Inferred Property The ‘og:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.

What can I do to solve this?

Thanks in advance, Teresa

Is it possible to change the line-height of the text in the single post without adding a plugin?

Yes of course. Add this to your custom CSS;

.the-post .single-post .entry-content:not(.custom-excerpt), .the-post .page .entry-content { line-height: 1.5; }

Change the value to whatever you need

Thanks – Steve

thank you!

I am trying to host the mulish font locally to save loading time. I have added the code to the additional css and the fonts are in the correct locating on the server. I think it is working. But the instructions tell me to disable the google fonts. Is there an easy way to do this?

I deleted all the things I added to the header and style.css and installed the child them. But where do I put the things I added to the header.php now? Like the Meta pixel code, trade tracker code etc. Can I copy the header.php to the child theme?

Hi,

Yes, you can add any template file to the child theme and that will be used instead of the parent theme. S copy the header t the child theme and edit that.

Or simply add the code to the parent functions.php file if you don’t want to copy/paste template parts . You will need to add it back in again whenever you update the theme.

Thanks – Steve

Thank you very much!

Text with numbered list is very large in posts and also text to quote https://i.imgur.com/Qrk1QK5.png

You can decrease ordered list marker font size with this;

.entry-content ol li::marker { font-size:10px; }

Quote font size is set in Gutenebrg editor, select, small, medium, large or a custom font size.

Thanks – Steve

After one days of checking everything on my website, I finally figured out what was causing a Cumulative Layout Shift of 0,998 . When I disabled my logo, the pagespeed was much better. the CLS changed to 0.014. But of course I want a logo on my page. pagespeed insight is saying the problem is that the logo image has no ‘expliciete breedte en hoogte ’ this is in dutch, I think it is in english: explicit height and width. What can I do to change this? My website www.mariskavos.nl

I updated the theme, it did fix the missing height problem. But now the logo is stretched in height in mobile view. To fix this I choose an alternate mobile logo for mobile view, but that gives the problem with missing height and width problem in mobile view.

Hi,

You do not need to upload a mobile logo. You need to clear browser cache (or delete site cache if using a cache plugin). There is a new CSS file with this update and it sounds like your browser or site is caching the old one.

Thanks – Steve

Thank you, that worked!

I am trying to optimise my website with pagespeed insight. I am getting the message that fonts should be visible while loading and that I can achieve this by using font_swap. The message is about this font: …font/fontello.woff2?37224863

Were can I add this? When I googled, I read that I could add “font-display: swap;” to the @font-face in the style css, but I don’t see a @font-face in the style.css.

Hi,

You can’t add font-swap to icons as there is no fallback.

For example; You can swap any Google font for a system font until the required font loads. But there is not a system font that can replace a twitter or Facebook icon for example while that icon loads.

This is why I use fontello icons and not a full icon library as it’s only a few kilobytes file size and does not suffer from slow loading.

Thanks – Steve

thank you

Hi, when I change the default homepage setting from Post loop display type to default from custom post blocks and have avatar enabled, it shows duplicate avatars. Is there a way only have 1 avatar photo show up and not 2? I don’t want post blocks for now, it causes display issues so would prefer default.

Sure, I’m not sure I don’t recall having a plug-in generate a 2nd avatar. It only shows up with default layout but I only have avatar clicked on. I tried author avatar and it was the same thing. https://moneywithoppa.com/what-is-salary-transparency/

Hi,

The issue is with Lazyload plugin generating an additional fallback image. (you might have enabled Lazyload with Jetpack or other plugin) you don’t need to as Lazyload is now part of WP core.

This will hide the extra avatar;

.entry-meta .avatar[data-lazy-fallback="1"] { display: none; }

Thanks – Steve

I turned off lazyload and it worked. Thanks so much again!

how to place adsense ads ,???

Ruki does not contain any dedicated Ad areas but you can use HTML widgets to add your Ads in any widget location of which there are many.

Thanks – Steve

What can I do so that instead of my posts displaying the recent publish date as “1 day ago” etc, it would actually have the date such as February 02, 2023. For some reason Google struggles with understanding the date of the post, and instead pulls the date out of my comments, which has it in the conventional format.

Appearance > Customize > Ruki: SEO & Misc. Settings

Uncheck: Human Redable Entry Date

I hope this helps

Thanks – Steve

What a champ. Thank you.

How come some posts has a photo of the author but some don’t? I would like them all to have a photo of the author. Using the demo data so for instance, any-delicate-you-how-kindness-horrible-outlived-servants doesn’t have author photo.

I may add Like buttons to posts.

What plugin are you currently using for Like buttons?

Thanks – Steve

It would be nice to have a simple like button next to social media buttons but for now I’m using WP Like Button that shows up on top below author so I guess that’s fine. That one requires social media fb login but it would be nice for one that didn’t.

I’ll add it t the feature requests :)

Thanks – Steve

Hi i was wondering how I can update the footer font size? I created 2 menus, footer-left and footer-right and added them into the footer-bottom navigation menu but they’re too big. So was wondering how I can update the css for it to make it smaller?

Hi,

You can so that with CSS. Add this to Appearance > Additional CSS;

.footer-widget-area.footer-bottom .widget ul li a, .footer-widget-area.footer-bottom .widget ol li a { font-size: 16px; }

Change to whatever you need.

Thanks – Steve

Thanks Steve that worked! The font is now smaller. However, the footer bottom seems to not be the width of screen, it seems to be using only the center part of the screen. Is there a way for it to expand it so the footer bottom uses the page width? I used 3 columns, so I was hoping to see left | middle | right instead of X | col 1/2/3 | X.

The widget area in that location has a max width of 728px (it’s designed for the mailchimp or similar widget).

Try adding this to your custom CSS;

.footer-widget-area #block-25 { width: 100%; max-width: var(--container-max-width); margin: auto; } }

I have not tested this but it should work :)

Thanks – Steve

The theme is now showing up as BLANK. I can’t view or customize anything. It’s just a blank page. It doesn’t happen with any other theme.

Have you installed the latest theme version?

Yes I have downloaded the latest version.

If you can access it, try this;

Appearance > Customize > Site Identity

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

Option 2; Enable debug mode and see if any errors are returned;

Otherwise I can take a look for you if you want to send me a temporary wp-admin login to 3fortymedia@gmail.com

Thanks – Steve

1. When I select “home” while on a post, the home page has no posts on it. It’s just a blank home page. That isn’t a problem with other themes.

2. Is there a way to make Presto Player work with this theme? It works with most other themes.

Hi,

1. Make sure you have set the homepage to display latest posts. Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Theme Settings > Homepage Settings > Post Loop display type: Default

Or if you want to use post blocks select that option then go to Appearance > Customize > Ruki: Homepage Post Blocks and activate each block you want.

2. I have no specific support for Presto player so I can’t guarantee it will work as expected. What specifically is not working? I’ll have a look at it.

Thanks – Steve

I love the theme. I like to purchase it but can you please ask the author what is the meaning of Ruki in english. Thanks.

It’s a Japanese name

On this theme, is it possible to disable thumbnail’s from showing on blog posts? But so that they show on the index page only?

Hi,

Yes, you can disable featured images on single posts on a per post basis.

Thanks – Steve

After installing the demo im stuck with a blank screen. Nothing loads

Well this is a first for me and I get no further insight looking at your source code. If you want me to have a look for you, send me a temporary wp-admin login and I’ll see if I can find the cause 3fortymedia@gmail.com

Thanks – Steve

Something you can try;

Appearance > Customize > Site Identity

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

Thanks – Steve

Awesome! That worked!! Thanks so much!
