Dear Customers! We're out of the office from the 6th of October to the 11th of October. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. For WordPress 5.5.* related issues, please visit this article.
I was hoping i could get some help removing the author, date, category, comments, and even trackback url from my blog posts. I have aready tried editing the custom CSS in Appearance and adding "display:none" to the "vntd-meta-section" and "vntd-meta-author" classes but it did't seem to work.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm sure there's something i am missing.
You can remove the meta information from the blog posts by some custom CSS. Looks like you have most of it done already?
To remove the trackback link that needs to be done via the post editor as that is a default WordPress setting.
In the top of the post editor click the 'Screen Options' tab, check the 'Discussion' checkbox, then at the bottom of the post editor the Discussion meta box will show.
Uncheck the 'Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page.', then save the page.
To change the featured image size you will need to edit the code in the theme itself and then re-load the thumbnail sizes within your website. If you would like to do this let me know and I'll show you where the code is
The meta data that I only see on the page is the post tags at the bottom and the date on top of the image.
To hide them you would need to target their CSS classes.
.post-tags, .blog-extra-meta {display:none;}
I would recommend just changing the CSS for the blog images. You would need to make sure that your new images are already set to your specific dimensions for best results.
.single_item.mp-image {width:800px;}
Then for the responsive sizes you can adjust it to go 100% when the screen size is smaller.
@media screen and (max-width: 860px) {
.single_item.mp-image {width:100%;}
}
You would need to play around with these sizes until you reach the one that you are happy with
It seems like the css i coded yesterday hadn't kicked in and now the author and date info is gone.
Thanks for responding. Where can i edit the CSS for the blog images? I could not find those classes within the custom CSS in the appearance editor. Are they in the original theme files?
I'm just pushing an update with additional options regarding the blog post meta section under the Theme Options / Blog menu that will allow you to fully customise your meta section:
It will be available for download in few hours or you can grab it right now here:
I'm unsure if i update now if i will lose the custom CSS or if the theme settings will move back to default? I changed some of the default colors for text, links, header etc.
BTW i also had to resize the container of the featured image via:
.post-media-container {width:600px;}
because i was getting an overlay with the zoom in icon that would take up the whole screen. Had to resize it to the widthof the featured image.
It seems like my content is still there because i can see it in the code and when i hover over hyperlinks, but for some reason the white background is being applied over the slider and all content and nothing is visible. I tried removing the white background from Appearance but no luck.
I was able to update most plugins except Visual Composer.
I received a message stating that i need to purchase a license in order to update to the latest version which is compatible with the theme. I'm not sure if this is included with the purchase of the theme or i have to buy it separately?
I just have one more question. Is there any way to customize the "read more" text for blog posts?
I have a blog carousel in the home page with several blog posts i am using to show events, but the website will be in spanish. I am wondering if there is any way to customize the excerpt text to spanish.
I will attach a picture to better explain what i mean

Sorry, and if possible some guidance on how to reduce the size of the featured image? It is very big.

Sorry i thought i posted a link for reference. Here is a blog post that i made in the site:
http://www.test.manases.org/2015/12/08/claritas-est-etiam-processus-dynamicus-qui-sequitur-mutationem/
although i have edited the Custom CSS of the meta to Display:none, it is still appearing. Perhaps i have edited the wrong line of code?
Thanks for your response on how to remove the trackback. If possible yes i would like to know how to reduce the featured image via the code - thanks.

Hi Kevin,
You can just copy and paste those CSS snippets I added in my last message into Waxom > Advanced > Custom CSS Styling box.
They are my edits copied of the original CSS stylesheet within the theme.

Hi Kevin,
You won't lose any custom CSS when you update providing you added your CSS into the correct places:
Either:
Waxom > Advanced > Custom CSS Code box
or
Waxom Child Theme Stylesheet (waxom-child/style.css)
Here is the update instructions if you need it:
How to update Waxom and it's plugins
You also won't lose any settings from the Waxom settings.
Kind regards,
Joanna

Oh great to know.
Thank you Joanna.
Edit:
After the update my home page appears white :(
http://www.test.manases.org/
It seems like my content is still there because i can see it in the code and when i hover over hyperlinks, but for some reason the white background is being applied over the slider and all content and nothing is visible. I tried removing the white background from Appearance but no luck.
Any ideas?
Hi Kevin,
That's odd! Add your wp login details and I'll investigate and debug what's going on here for you.

Appreciate the help
Hi Kevin,
I've just logged in thanks.
I can see that you haven't updated any of the plugins that come with Waxom. They need to be updated as well for the theme functionality to work.
Just give them an update and your content will appear again.

Found it in the appearance section!
Thanks again for your help.

Hi Kevin,
You can use a translation plugin such as WPML or qTranslate to change the language of the text within the theme
