Since the latest Wordpress Update, the theme is totally destroyed, only the header is showing. Will there be any update to the theme or is this theme no longer maintained?
is it possible to duplicate any page and customize individually with native wordpress page / post tools?
Greetings! Love the clean design of your Norway theme. Please let me know what else I will need to implement your theme. (plug-ins etc) I plan to host the new site with Godaddy simply because I’ve used them for many years with multiple domains. Although more expensive than other themes, if your customer support is as good as other reviewers have written, then I consider it a bargain!! Thanks so much Mark
Hi Mark,
You can try it and if this won’t work I will make an instant refund.
Hope this helps

That’s a very fair and generous offer—thanks! but my question is will I need any additional plug ins to use the theme??
Hello Besides the version I’m still able to download here (norway8 – Version: 16.140122) I’ve installed another version of this theme in my Wordpress years ago (Norway – Version: 1.3.9a). Actually not sure where I got this from.
As my website is built on this theme and those two are quite different in the way they look I was wondering if there is updated version of the second theme as well? I’m forced to make an upgrade as norway 1.3.9a doesn’t work with PHP8 and changing to norway8 is messing up the whole design.
Hello, could you please tell me the answers to a few questions on your topic? 1) What plugins are needed for stable operation of the theme? (Since we saw the shortcodes from wooссomers) 2) When fully installing the topic (as written in the manual) encountered with the fact that not displayed footer and duplicated menu in the header

Hi Luke, We’re having trouble with the internal links on our site. Clicking on internal links either goes blurry images or vertical letters. Is there something we should be doing on the draft page to post internal links? We haven’t noticed any problems with this in the past. This only happens with the mobile google browser but not safari. Desktop is fine. Thanks so much, Sarah
Hi Sarah,
Seems like this issue is related to WebP images generation. You can go to Settings > WebP Express, scroll down to Conversion settings and select the Jpeg conversion to Loseless and Loseless/Lossy quality to 100%.
This should solve the issue.

Hi there, I have a series of errors that have appeared on my website since updating to php 8.0, so I have reverted back to 7.4 for now. Looks like this:
Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /customers/5/3/e/talatgokdemir.com/httpd.www/wp-content/themes/norway/view-post.php on line 166
Is this something I can fix from my side? Help would be appreciated
Hi silenzio01,
You can download the new version of Norway theme and install it, the issue seems to be related to older version.

HI, How do I get the featured image for a page to appear above the heading and also can I get it to show in full length just as the logo picture does (hence also above the sidebar)
And also how do I link the picture?
Hi Cathinkaingman,
When adding a new post or page in the right side there’s a section named “Featured Image” you can select previously uploaded one or upload a new one there.
- Luke
Hi Luke Yes I know that much but how do I get the feature picture to appear above the headline instead of below?
Hi, I am having trouble setting up the home page. How can I make it the same as the demo? The “Features Categories” section and the three posts that should be at the top seem to be missing. Do I have to create a new page or is there an option to bring up these two missing fields?
Hi naiara83,
To add featured posts section: Go to Appearance > Customize > Content > Top Featured Category select the existing category you want to be featured. You can add new category in Posts > Categories. Make sure you have featured images set in posts for best experience.
To add featured categories: Go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Featured Categories select the categories you want to feature (Multiple values can be selected using cmd/ctrl click. Deselect using cmd/ctrl). You can edit each category and add an image to it in Posts > Categories.
Let me know if it helps.

Great Theme. Was wondering, if I’m the only one with broken focus points on cover images. Cheers, Alex
Hi Listencareful,
Can you please send me a screenshot at support@major-themes.com Would be nice to know also the browser you’re using so I can fix this.

Hey is the theme compatible with WordPress 6?
Cheers
Hey AuWeH,
Just tried upgrading it and all seems working fine!

I’ve set this up with Header One, but I’d like to remove the row above the logo/menu (i.e. the bit with the social icons and search) as I don’t need it. How can I do this please? I’d also like to change the background colour of the header, again how can I achieve this? Are you able to provide answers and/or CSS to the above please.
Hi digitalknave,
Absolutely!
In Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS copy-paste the code below:
header.header-main .social-wrap,
header.header-main .search-trigger-wrap,
header.header-main .lead {
display: none !important;
}
header.header-main .header-essentials {
padding-top: 0px !important;
border-bottom: 0;
}
header.header-main:before {
height: 105px !important;
background: #fea !important;
}
You can change the color by changing background: #fea hex value.
Let me know if this helps

Is there any way to specify which articles are shown as Related Posts? We have an older post showing up which we don’t want to feature. I tried removing it from the Category, and also switching it back to a Draft rather than Published, but in both cases it still showed up as a Related Post elsewhere.
Thanks as always!
Hi sarahjaneirvine,
Can you send me a message at support@major-themes.com with the link to the page that is showing the “Related Posts”.

Hi just install your theme with a child theme, when I put a css in my style.css file in the child theme it does not owerite the parent style, I need to put an !imprtant in my css, I cannot do all my css with !importantin css, can you tell me what is wrong ? my child theme is activated.
thanks
Hi Cybergraph74,
You can override it by inspecting the element you want to change and adding copying the full classes structure of the selector and adding .wrapper class before it, for example border radius of categories:
.wrapper .post-category a {
border-radius: 64px;
}
Please let me know what exactly you want to modify and I will help you with the code

// Removing the loading of helper scripts from parent theme
function norway8_remove_functions_child() {
remove_action('after_setup_theme', 'norway8_load_scripts', 1);
}
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'norway8_remove_functions_child', 0);
// Adding the loader of helper scripts to child theme
function norway8_load_scripts_child() {
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/init.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/api.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/articles.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/blocks.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/customizer.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/styles.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/tgm.php');
require_once(get_template_directory() . '/main/theme.php');
// Path to replaced social.php file, can be in any directory
require_once(get_stylesheet_directory() . '/social.php');
}
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'norway8_load_scripts_child', 2);
And you can put social.php file directly in the child theme directory without creating additional folders.
Hope this helps!
Perfect! thanks
Hello!
We’re enjoying this theme a lot!! But we’re having an issue lately.
The main logo on the header bar is not appearing in any circumstance (appears only an X). It is uploaded in the dashboard, and we changed it to another image to see if it’s working but still not showing I’m afraid. We cleared cache and tried with a private tab but it doesn’t work.
What can be the problem with this? Thanks a lot!!
Hello Sigundr,
Please send me link to your website at lukestateson@gmail.com
I am sure I will be able to find the issue and fix it

Hi Luke, thanks for your swift answer! We believe that it was an issue with SSL. We installed Real & Simple SSL and now seems to work! Thanks again!
Great, I’m glad that everything is working
Please let me know if you have more questions!
Hello, I am wondering what the changes are to the theme for this latest update, please?
Hi samanthab333,
There has been an update to admin panel Gutenberg post editor styles.

Hello, I’d like to change our homepage to a fixed image like this: https://lionsinthepiazza.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=3805&action=edit Then underneath, the usual columns of pictures for posts. A few problems: 1) It says that I need to create two new pages, one for the homepage and one for the posts. I tried setting the “homepage” to the above image, and leaving the other option blank—but wound up with the latest posts on top and the homepage image underneath. The other posts disappeared. 2) On the homepage image, the font color goes from the orange custom theme color to black. Also it doesn’t resize for mobile viewing (maybe that’s not possible?) Please let me know if I can clarify anything, and thank you!!

Hi, I would like to import the demo but I think I don’t have all the data. I don’t find the xml file “Demo Data”. Would you please help me ? Thank you.
Hi jeanpaulpopulu,
The demo data should be in the full theme archive, in case you don’t have this archive you can download it here: https://major-themes.com/files/norway8/demo-data.zip
Just unzip it and use posts.xml and pages.xml files or everything.xml in case you want to import everything including WooCommerce store demo data.
Please let me know if this helps and in case you’ll need help with, for example widgets setup or other questions please let me know at support@major-themes.com
