    • Sorry, I’ve had a car accident and have to rest for a while. I’ll have a look at this when I am healthy again!

    • Hi Tunji,
      do you still have a problem with that? I’ve just checked my theme but I couldn’t find a mistake, all posts are shown on the category pages. Can you send me an url, etc?

  2. Hi Marion , hope you getting better….it would be nice if you can help me in 2 things on neni: 1 why cant use bold and 2:change the background color of the menu items…Thanks
    Terry

    • καλημέρα! I still need more rest but it’s getting better each day, thank you. To change the background color you have to look at the functions.php. I will give you detailled information within next week. And I’ll have a look at the problem with bold too. Marion

        • Hi Terry,

          1. to change the background color of the menu items, you have to:

          a) functions.php
          remove lines 125, 126, 132 (#branding #main-menu....)

          b) style.css
          change the hex-code in the following lines:
          246 and 708 (#branding #main-menu ul li a -> background-color),
          290 (#branding #main-menu ul ul a:hover, #branding #main-menu ul ul ul a:hover -> color)
          and 713 (#branding #main-menu ul ul li a:hover, #branding #main-menu ul ul ul li a:hover -> color)

          2. for bold you have to add

          strong {
          font-weight:bold;
          }

          to your style.css. I will add this to the next version of neni.

  3. Hi – Marion …

    Enjoying the clean look of your Neni theme … may work well on my site.

    I was wondering how easy it would be to eliminate the byline along with the date, on post? Would that be easy to do?

    If I decide to allow comments, I assume it would not effect the name of the person leaving a comment.

    Anyway – nice clean design. Any advice appreciated …

    Thanks

    • Hi Moz,
      sorry for the late reply – I have been on holiday the past 2 weeks. It is not difficult to eliminate the byline on posts. Give me 2-3 days because I have just came back home and I’ll show you how to change this.
      Marion

  4. Hi Marion,

    I’m using Neni on the above referenced site. Like the previous commenter, I’m also interested in eliminating the byline on posts. Can you please tell me how?

    Thanks!

    • Hi Toni,

      thanks for using Neni. :)
      Take a look at the end of “content.php”. Here you can delete the lines you don’t need. For example to delete the Social Sharing Links you have to remove lines 39-44, to delete also the Permalink etc. remove lines 39-48. It’s important that you don’t delete the last 3 lines ( ).

      Cheers,
      Marion

  5. Hi,
    I’ve been working with your template and I’m trying to make a child theme out of it. I’ve got a few questions:

    1. I can make a child theme from it can’t I?

    2. When I follow the recommended procedure to make a child theme I never lose the formatting (i.e. before I add the @import url(“../neni/style.css”) any reason that’s occurring?

    3. My new style.css never seems to override the old style.css any idea why?

    4. What’s the best way to remove the site title area? If I leave the area blank it leaves a large empty space.

    Thanks for your time.
    Rick
    First off, is there any reason I can’t make a child theme out of it?

    • Hi Rick,

      thanks for using Neni. :)

      1.-3. it should be possible to create a child time. If you can’t overwrite all the styles you need, take a deeper look at the folder “/includes”, especially the end of “theme-options.php”. Perhaps you have to add some of these styles to your new css-File and I think you have to overwrite the “neni_insert_custom_color()” too.
      4. To remove the large empty space take a look at the styles for #blog-title and #site-title. I think this will help you.

      Cheers,
      Marion

  6. Hi Marion,

    I hope you are fully recovered from the car crash now.

    I’ve started using the Neni theme, and love it. Thank you for creating the theme.

    I’ve currently got my latest blog posts displayed on my ‘front / home’ page. The home page lists my latest four blog posts. Is it possible to edit the theme, to only show the excerpt of my latest blog posts, rather than the whole blog post on the front /home page?

    Best Regards

    Andrew

  7. Hi Marion,

    It’s okay, I’ve worked out how to modify the theme. Thank you again for a wonderful theme.

    Best Regards

    Andrew

    • Hi Andrew,

      thanks for using neni. :)
      Thank you, I’m fine again. Great that you’ve found what you were looking for.

      Cheers,
      Marion

  8. Hi Marion,

    I really love your theme but I’m using my blog to host a podcast and it looks like the theme is changing the title of my RSS feed. Is this anything you would be able to help with? Instead of the feed title being the same as the title of my blog, it is changing it to simply read “Feed: ” Any help would be great but I understand if you’re not an RSS feed expert cause I’m definitely not!

    • Hi Danny,

      sorry for the late answer. I’ve had a lot of work and I’ve overlooked your post. Do you still need some help?

      Cheers,
      Marion

  9. I love Neni!

    There are just a couple tweeks I can’t figure out. I am trying to change the width of the sidebar and main posts together (making the posts wider, and the sidebar thinner). I would also like to change the background color of the sidebar widgets. Right now it’s set to gray. Is this in the style.css?

    Thanks.

    • Hi Christopher,

      thanks for using Neni! :)

      First of all – try to use Firebug to inspect the CSS. It’s a great tool to find everything you need!

      To remove the colored bar at the top just delete

      #branding {
      border-top: 8px solid #EC5F00;
      }

      and perhaps you have to delete line 160 in theme-options.php too.

      To change the width of the sidebar and main posts could be a little bit difficult, because Neni is responsive and you have to change a number of lines. You will find everything you need in style.css and in theme-options.php. Firebug will help you! ;)

      To change the background color of the sidebar widgets is quite easy, you will find all the styles in style.css. I’ve seen that you’ve found most of them, you still need to change the .tagcloud.

      Marion

      • Thanks! I got it all working. I like the gray in the cloud, it works, just not with the categories.

        So one last little thing, is it possible to right justify the widgets? I found the float right, but I don’t think that’s correct.

        -C

        • Hi Christopher,

          great! :)

          Yes it is possible, but you have to look for all individual styles. Try to use Firebug to find them all. You’ll need aside.widget, aside.widget ul, .widget h3.widget-title, etc.

          BR,
          Marion

  10. Hi Marion,

    I got in touch with you some time ago about the menus and the top of the page being left-justified in later versions of Friefox. Would you be able to take a look please?

    Thanks.

    TJ

    • Hi TJ,

      which version do you mean exactly? Neni is responsive, if the browser window is smaller than 1200px the menu is left-justified, if it is larger the menu is right-justified.

      BR,
      Marion

  11. Hello,
    When you mention you can change the colors, does this entail the colors of the headlines and other border colors?
    Thanks!
