I have just bought your great theme and I've got a couple of questions :
1. Any of my thumbnails (those from the classical wordpress featured image) are displayed on the front page. I have my blog from years and can't imagine take all the posts individually to put a new thumbnail for each one :( Have you got a solution to set them automatically ?
2. I really like the default presentation on the first page and I have purchased your theme to have this presentation. But if I set the post on "center", the home page display them on all the "white surface", and I don't want this. I don't want too the mansonry presentation. Is there an option that I didn't see ?
I really hope you will help me because I'm a bit disappointed.
1. Unfortunately right now there are no out of the box option for that. Because the theme uses different way of representing the post image(s) that can accept multiple images. Sorry for that.
Anyway, I will see what I can do in the next version to add a new option to load the post image from featured image instead.
2. I am not sure I understand it correctly. Did you mean that you want the post image to display with the post? If so, please open the edit screen of the post then scroll down to the "Post Format Settings" box and you can then upload the post images there.
I would recommend to read through the provided documentation especially under the section of "How To" for more idea on how to manage the post content. You can also import the dummy data to another instance of your WP site to use them as examples.
It would be a very very very very great option for those like me who change theme with so many posts. Now, I need to spend hours and hours to check each post. When do you think you will have the next version ? Perhaps I can wait for it ?
An other question. For the "normal" layout post format, how can I do to give the possibility to open in a lightbox the images in the left column when we click on ? It would be also a very great feature. I suppose that I should find the solution in the plugin "option tree" ?
I plan to update all my themes in the second week of March (Mon 7). So the update for Calmer should also be finished within that week. I might add a global option to append any uploaded featured image to the post's image list as the first item.
For the lightbox, unfortunately there is no option for that. It would require custom modification of the theme to add such functionality.
I have noticed that on a tablet the search icon is not well displayed (it comes under the grey line). It is a detail, but I would like to clean this.
I would like also translate the word "back" in the menu when we are on a small device. Where can I do that ? I use the plugin Loco translate but I don't find this word.
1. Please go to "Style Customizer > Others > Custom CSS" and try applying this code:
@media only screen and (max-width: 960px) {
#search-icon {
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
right: 0;
float: none;
}
}
This should fix the position of search icon on tablet screen.
2. I personally have never used that plugin but you can directly edit the "Back" word in the "/js/foundation.min.js" file. Just open the file and search for the word and you can edit it there.
Just to let you know that the theme has been updated since the last Wednesday. You can now enable a new option to prepend Featured Image to the Post Images. You can find the option by going to "Theme Options > Blog".
I also have made the word "Back" translate-able via PO file.
Everything works perfectly, but there is one problem : When I use the default wordpress thumbnail, it doesn't appears in the "related post" at the end of the post. There is only the title. How can I fix this ?

Thank you very much Paul for your response.

For the rest, I found a solution.
Thank you so much for your help !

Fantastic !!! For me it is a really very great news ! So I'm waiting for this release :)
For the lightbox, perhaps you've got an idea to help me make this customization ? It would be very very great.
In any case, thank you very much for your quick response !
Hello, it's me again.
I have noticed that on a tablet the search icon is not well displayed (it comes under the grey line). It is a detail, but I would like to clean this.
I would like also translate the word "back" in the menu when we are on a small device. Where can I do that ? I use the plugin Loco translate but I don't find this word.

Thank you very much !
I put this code and it seems very well on all devices :
@media only screen and (max-width: 960px) {
#search-icon {
position: absolute;
top: 25px;
right: 40px;
float: none;
}
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
#search-icon {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
right: 40px;
float: none;
}
}
The plugin Loco translate is very usefull and works exactly as poEdit, but directly on the wordpress dashboard, so you don't need an FTP transfer.
Thanks again !
You're welcome! :)
