Hi there,

I’d like to set a static homepage but when I do the header image/logo causes the site to blink and flash when scrolling down. I think it has something to do with the way the header changes size when scrolling down. it doesn’t do this when the static front page is set but does when recent posts are selected.

i was playing around with the css and used some code i found in these forums to make the header not adjust size–and now i can’t seem to see where any changes were made and the change only appears when the static page is selected.

I don’t mind the header and log changing size when scrolling down the site, though i’d prefer it not do this, but i really want to use a state page and not recent posts

here’s the site: http://www.hobarthandbooks.com/

currently set to a static page.

Thanks!

actually, sorry, it does do this when static page is selected in the customizer. NOT when recent posts are the front page. sorry for the confusion.

@JWBeach: I see that you have changes style.css and edit the height of it which is causing script issue. Can you restore the height of logo in your style.css and it should work fine.

[JWBeach]

Thanks for getting back to me! I changed it back to 41px in the parent theme css style sheet. but it still does it, even after refreshing the page. i think it has something to do with the static front page… also, the logo image is too small now. the image i uploaded is quite large (approx 1600 x 600).

Thanks!

@JWBeach: If you make the logo large then you need to add more content in your static page About. We are in the process of update with this issue to be fixed in small content and large logo.

Thanks, @Sakin. In the meantime, should I experiment with smaller logo images?

Thanks for the awesome theme and the generous support!

[Sakin]

@JWBeach: Yes, I guess. Let me know If I need to help you directly. Thanks 🙂

Hi Sakin

I want to reduce logo size, so that it doesn´t take up so much of the of my page. How to?

And, I have tried for several days now to contact WordPress due to the fact that I can´t translate Theme Options with Qtranslate-X that I have installed. How do I fix that?

My website is: http://www.houseofrecruitment.dk/dk/

@Michael: Logo size depends on the image that you upload. If you upload small image it will load small image.

You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box to reduce padding top and bottom:

#site-logo, #header-right { padding-top: 20px; }
#hgroup-wrap { padding-bottom: 20px; }

Hi Sakin

What do I do about the other thing?

“And, I have tried for several days now to contact WordPress due to the fact that I can´t translate Theme Options with Qtranslate-X that I have installed. How do I fix that?”

No one knows about the Theme Options, and I thought you might as you have developed Catch Kathmandu…

[Sakin]

@Michael: We haven’t use Qtranslate-X but our users has been using mqTranslate, WPML and Polylang. WPML has officially certified as WPML plugin compatible. So, an you use other plugin.

[Michael]

Hi Sakin

You told me a while ago to use mqTranslate. qTranslate-X is the “newest” part of mqTranslate. This is what shows on mqTranslate: DEPRECATED in favor of qTranslate X. Based on qTranslate, adds userfriendly multilingual content management and translation support, with collaborativ.

I know that WPML is certified, but you need to install all kinds of plugins, which is very expensive.

Isn´t it possible for your company to develop so that all of us that has installed mqTranslate, doesn´t have to install a new plugin for your Theme?

We installed your Theme because it had a good price and Translation ready with multiple languages already up and running.

[Sakin]

@Michael: Ok then we need to add compatible with qTanslate-X as well. We will go this in next version update. Thanks for the info.

For now you can open functions.php file and edit the following code:

/**
 * Add Suport for qTranslate and mqTranslate Plugin
 */	
if ( in_array( 'qtranslate/qtranslate.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins' ) ) ) ||
in_array( 'mqtranslate/mqtranslate.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins' ) ) ) ) { 
	require( get_template_directory() . '/inc/catchkathmandu-qtranslate.php' );
}

With the code as below:

/**
 * Add Support for qTranslate X, mqTranslate and qTranslate Plugin
 */	
if ( defined( 'QTX_VERSION' ) || in_array( 'qtranslate/qtranslate.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins' ) ) ) || in_array( 'mqtranslate/mqtranslate.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins' ) ) ) ) { 
	require( get_template_directory() . '/inc/catchkathmandu-qtranslate.php' );
}

[Michael]

Hi Sakin

That would be great if you have qTranslate-X in the update! 🙂

The codes you provided, will they make it possible to translate into another language switching between the flags in my website?

[Sakin]

@Michael: Yes, I check in with qTranslate-X i and that code will make our theme compatible

[Michael]

Hi Sakin

I just tried to install. All my Menu was messed up and I couldn´t edit them.

I think I will wait until you have updated in the next version Kathmandu. Do you know when that will be?

[Sakin]

@Michael: Not sure about it. We need to test it first. But it shouldn’t mess your menu. can you me let me know what happen to your menu in details.

[Sakin]

@Sakin: Oh wow qtranslate x is nice. So remove that previous code and add the following

/**
 * Add Support for qTranslate X
 */	
if ( defined( 'QTX_VERSION' ) ) {
	require( get_template_directory() . '/inc/catcheverest-wpml.php' );
}

[Michael]

The Menu´s dissapeared on the right side in WP. Simply wasn´t there… No other way to describe it.

[Sakin]

@Michael: Did you try the new code that I have just posted in .
