Hi Clumi,

Thanks for writing in.

Kindly go to Appearance > Customize > Ethos and find the settings for Post Carousel: Display, Post Slider for Blog: Display, and Filterable Index: Category IDs.

Kindly check the first two settings that they are set correctly. The options available should be Most Commented, Random, and Featured and what shows in the homepage will depend on what was set on those settings. By default they are set to Featured. If you don’t have featured posts which you can set in the individual post setting, nothing will show up in the homepage’s carousel and post slider. Try setting them to Random and you should see some post be displayed.

As for the third setting which is the Filterable Index: Category, you can leave it blank or set some specific category IDs.

Hope this helps.

How can I change grey color on sidebar. I’ve tried some changes on custom css, but there are still some grey parts. Thanks!

Hi,

You can try this code instead.

body,
body .x-sidebar {
   background-color:#fff;
}

Hope that helps.

Hi There,

That is a background pattern, to remove that navigate to Appearance > Customize. Then on Customizer under the Layout and Design panel, set a random image as a Background Pattern when the images shows on the preview (right side) simple remove it and save.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks.

Thanks. It works. I added an white image to background, although it was setting white color as background.
For another problem I need your help: Main menu doesn’t appear on mobile version.

Hello There,

Thanks for the updates! The mobile menu icon is invisible to the eye because it has a white color. In order to change it and have a different color, please add the following css code in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.masthead-inline .x-btn-navbar,
.masthead-inline .x-btn-navbar.collapsed  {
    color: #000;
    margin-top: 50px;
}

Please let us know how it goes.

Thanks. It works. I like to work on my website with X-theme and your help step by step. I have another issues to solve:
1. I don’t know what I have to do for appearing latest posts / any posts on my Homepage?
2. For social media on nav bar I copied this code on child theme _navbar.php
https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/how-to-put-visible-social-media-icons-on-navbar/
But nothing happened. I would like to have social icons buttons (like on this website http://jamesb.com/ ), but near search button, not on the topbar.

Hi Clumi,

Based on the sample link you have provided, the social icons are in the topbar. You can simply go to Appearance > Customizer > Topbar > Miscellaneous > Topbar : ON.

Hope this helps.

1. Social button on navbar
To be more precise:
I asked for help to put social buttons on navbar, near search button, not on top bar. I used above example to show the style of social icons, not the place.
So, to put social buttons on navbar, I’ve copied _navbar.php as I see on this forum (you can see below the link), and put it in child theme, but nothing happened.
https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/how-to-put-visible-social-media-icons-on-navbar/
What I have to do?

2. What I have to do for appearing latest posts / any posts on my Homepage?

Hello There,

#1] To put your social buttons next to your navbar, since you have your child theme active and ready, please follow the following steps below:
1] Using Notepad or TextEdit or Sublime Text or any text editor, please create a new file in your local machine.
2] Insert the following code into that new file

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/GLOBAL/_NAV-PRIMARY.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Outputs the primary nav.
// =============================================================================
	
if( function_exists( 'ubermenu' ) && $config_id = ubermenu_get_menu_instance_by_theme_location( 'primary' ) ):
	ubermenu( $config_id, array( 'theme_location' => 'primary') ); 
 else: ?>
 
<a href="#" class="x-btn-navbar collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".x-nav-wrap.mobile">
  <i class="x-icon-bars" data-x-icon=""></i>
  <span class="visually-hidden"><?php _e( 'Navigation', '__x__' ); ?></span>
</a>

<nav class="x-nav-wrap desktop" role="navigation">
  <?php x_output_primary_navigation(); ?>
</nav>

<div class="x-nav-wrap mobile collapse">
  <?php x_output_primary_navigation(); ?>
</div>

<!-- The social icon here -->
<div class="navbar-social">
	<?php x_social_global(); ?>
</div>

<?php endif; ?>

3] Save the file named as _nav-primary.php
4] Upload this file to your server in the child theme’s folder
wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/global/

And then you also need this custom css in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

@media(min-width: 980px){
  .navbar-social {
    position: absolute;
    right: calc(1.25em - 0.071em + 5px);
    top: 60px;
    min-width: 250px;
    color: #fff;
  }

  .navbar-social .x-social-global {
    float: right;
  }
}

@media(max-width: 979px){
  .navbar-social {
    display: none;
  }
}

#2] To make sure that the latest post appear in your homepage, please disable the filterable index in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Ethos > Blog Options, This setting allows you to specify categories to highlight. Upon selecting this option, a text input will appear to enter in the IDs of the categories you would like to showcase.

Hope this helps.
