thank you then how do I link my posts to my blog?
Jessica can you elaborate on that?
I’m trying to put borders around the featured images of posts when they’re shown under the category tab but the borders keep getting cut off & I can’t show overflow content around the image without it looking really messy. Is there any way I can just get a border to appear in the small area of image that is shown?
Try adding this to your stylesheet:
.lay1 .imgwrap{border: 4px solid #eeeeee;}
Can I change the text above the feature image to be a summary of my post, and not just a beginning of sentence fragment of my post? Awesome theme, truly.
While editing the post, in the post editor page notice there is a button on the top right of the page called “Screen options”. Click it and then check the “Excerpt” option and notice a box named “Excerpt” appeared under “Post Editor”. Write your post summary there. This will overwrite the default summary.
Hi,
Thank you for the great theme free theme you made
Could you please help solve a problem with your theme :
The bottom widget area appears on some pages only a few seconds and suddenly dissapears ! Please reply this question on the email I provided for this reply.
Thanks
You will have to open up zenon.js via ftp and remove this line:
jQuery(‘#footer:has(.widgets ul:empty)’).hide();
You can use “wp file manager” plugin to access that file if you dont know how to use FTP.

I love the theme, Man! Thanks. Question, i’d like the theme to look more like a website so I want to remove the post months, archive, meta menu on the right side. How do I do that?
Thanks again!
Did you edit the template files? your template has a broken version. Try reinstalling the theme.
Hi there, just needed a bit of help getting your Zenon Lite theme to work if that’s ok. I am trying to get a standard blog section working on my site but cannot seem to.
I have created a page called ‘Blog’ and in the Settings > Readings chosen that page to display my posts.
When I hit this page, it seems to simply load the frontpage, not the blog. Is there anyway to have a seperate standard blog page with Zenon lite?
you can simply create a category called “blog” and then mark the posts you want to display in blog page and then assign that category to your menu. when you click the “blog” menu item, all the blog posts will be displayed.
It seems there’s bug with the slide (WordPress latest 3.3.2, Hebrew version). I’ve created 3 slides, it only showing the last one and when clicking the number of slide – nothing happends, still shows the last slide only.
Theme: latest Zenon lite.
Whats your site address Hetz?
Oops, I meant 3 pictures in slide.
My blog is only showing 5 posts per page instead of 6. There is one row of 3, and one row of 2, instead of two rows of 3. Am I missing something?
Go to Settings> Reading and set the number of posts per page there April.
RE >> you can simply create a category called “blog” and then mark the posts you want to display in blog page and then assign that category to your menu. when you click the “blog” menu item, all the blog posts will be displayed.
Thanks for the help, but I want to create a page that has a column and regular sidebar widgets like a normal blog. Following your method just brings up the same homepage blog excerpts. ( ie the grid of boxes )
This layout is only available in the PRO version.
Hello, I was wondering how i control the metadata, title etc… for my homepage.
I know how to for all the other pages i’ve created, but not my homepage…

Hello,
I would like to delete the sentence: Theme by Towfiq I.
, in the first page, how can I do?
Thanks,
Philippe LASSERRE
Go to Appearance> Editor and select “footer.php” from right and find that line and delete it.
Hello and thank you so much for this great theme! as i`m a newbie working with themes and wordpress in general, could you please tell me how could i change the text color from grey to black?
thank you again!
Monica
Monica you are adding the slides in the slider the wrong way. Go to Appearance> Zenon Options>Documentation to read how to setup the slider.
And to change the font color, Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add this line to the very bottom:
body{color:#444444!important;}
Great theme! Only thing I have a problem with, is the compatibility. Pictures posted on pages are proper viewed in Safari, but in IE and Firefox it doesn’t render. What’s wrong? Thanks!
thats odd. whats your site address?
ilovesweethearts.com
Do you know whats causing this defect?
Thank you so much for your help!! I love this theme!
After i upgraded my theme some things changed – a drop down menu randomly appeared below the main nav and the slider. how do i remove that? http://iamtonywilson.com/events/
It looks okay to me….
how do i change the color and size of the tagline below the main headline/logo
Go to Appearnace> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add this line to the very bottom:
.desc{font-size:14px; color:#333333;}
Thanks for the theme! Having trouble changing the font size for the header logo and the top menu. Any help?
Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add these lines to the very bottom:
.logo h1 a{font-size:34px;}
body #topmenu ul li a{font-size:16px!important;}
How do I change the font size of the logo h1?
Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add these lines to the very bottom:
.logo h1 a{font-size:34px;}
I had already tried that and it doesn’t work. It stays fixed
Mike whats your site address?
http://www.olywalters.com
Try this:
body .logo h1 a{font-size:34px!important;}
really loving this theme as I’m setting up a new site — I’ve got 2 questions
1.) so far i’ve not found how to change the max number of slides in the slider (i need more than 10)
2.) i’d love to be able to make the text overlay on the slider to be transparent — is that possible?
thanks again … absolutely LOVE this theme! very very classy!
okay, disreagard #2 — i hadn’t yet even thrown images in, so didn’t see that it IS transparent … lol ..
Tracey its better not to use more than 5-7 slides. Because when you add lots of big images your site’s loading time increases and your users become annoyed. Users who is viewing your site with old pc may get their pc frozen…
thanks for ur feedback — you’re probably right … i’ll see if i can’t get them to see it that way … (i did finally just find it, in options.php)
LOVE this theme …. <3
Is there any way to replace the top header text with a logo?
I’m meaning like a jpg or something
Only possible in the PRO version Crystal.
Thanks. You have awesome support for your theme!
Towfiq … is there a way to make the text area displayed in the slider any smaller? (shorter)
Try adding this to your stylesheet:
.slider-content{width:344px!important;}
.slider-content p{width:300px!important;}
.slider-content h2{width:300px!important;}
Your template is exactly what I was looking for!
Is it possible to adjust the home page so that the featured image is from a URL rather than from an uploaded image?
If the answer is yes, then how?
You want to upload images via url? You can do it when you are adding “featured image” to a post.
Hey there. I have another question. Is it possible to change the social networks in the share line? I want to add pinterest.
Also, can you look at my page? I messed up the right sidebar somehow and it is halfway down the page.
It might have been in the share editor when I was trying to add pinterest. Thanks!
OK, figured it out. Was missing a . Still need help with adding pinterest though.
its not possible, Pinterest do not allow custom icons. You will have to embed their code directly into the post. or maybe try a pinterest plugin.
I just purchased the Zenon pro template. How do I remove the text below the header image that says, just another word press site?
Go to Settings> General and clear the Blog description field.
Thanks. Another question. Since Jetpack seems to conflict with this template what do you recommend for keeping track of blog stats? The WordPress.com stats seems to be the only one I really like.
The theme conflicts only with the ShareDaddy plugin that comes with Jetpack, not with Jetpack itself. Can you install Jetpack and disable ShareDaddy feature?
Cool! Thanks!!! Again.
How do I enlarge the font size for menu (the one below the text header. The one above the slider.. Thanks
Mal. This was posted few comments above:
Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add these lines to the very bottom:
.logo h1 a{font-size:34px;}
body #topmenu ul li a{font-size:16px!important;}
Worked with many wordpress themes before and delighted to discover this one. It looks very clean and professional and is very easy to handle.
I have a few questions though.
- can you change the order of the slides?
- how to change the font size and color of the tagline under the logo? I followed your advise posted before but that didn’t seem to work…
Thank you!
Btw; just upgraded to the PRO version, curious to see the extra options!
Sarah,
1. you can try changing the slide order with this plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-types-order/
2. Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and this line to the very bottom:
.desc{font-size:16px!important; color:#FFFFFF!important;}
Hi there. Thanks for your previous help. I wish to know how to change the url… the end of the url..

http://www.thepitch.ie/whatisthepitch
How do i do this? I keep getting a 404 in my posts when i try to change the permalinks for the pages.

Go to Settings> Permalink and change the settings. If it doesnt work, you should ask your host.
I’m trying to set up the social link on the Zenon Lite theme, but they don’t link to the social sites, but to http://www.websitename.nl/www.facebook.com/username
How do I fix this?
Add http:// at the start of your links.
thanks
how do you move the slider from one page to the other?
What page are you trying to move it to? please provide the page link.
Hi towfiqi,
I would like to know where can I check the contents sent through the form in the contact page, since it doesn’t seem to appear anywhere.
The contact form sends the email to your wordpress admin email address.
Towfiq, this is my problem
http://ulilahsan.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/problem.jpg?w=300
please help me.
I think this is about the lower internet access. But i try to upload image from my other wordpress blog, the picture can uploaded.
But in my website, i think it’s about the editor. That’s the problem, i can’t find the way how i set the HTML.
There’s something wrong with your web host. WordPress are not generating thumbnails. Maybe your host has the GD Library disabled. ask them about the issue.
I’m working on a site for a client and wanted to give her an example of how your theme would look for her site. I actually really like the theme.
I have at least one question: Where do you change the “We Work Efficiently,” “24/7″, etc.?
It’s probably staring me right in the face but I am feeling very dumb…
Go to Appearance> Zenon Options> Front page> Blocks to change those texts.
Never mind. Found them. It was staring me right in the face!
Hi nice theme, think I may have found a bug, the google plus badge keeps adding a “>” to its link
Any ideas how I can fix it? thanks
Go to Appearance> Editor and select “header.php” and find this line:
<li class="soc_plus"><a title="Google Plus" target="_blank" href="<?php echo of_get_option('gpsoc_text'); ? rel="nofollow">>">Google Plus</a></li><?php } ?>And replace it with:
<li class="soc_plus"><a title="Google Plus" target="_blank" href="<?php echo of_get_option('gpsoc_text'); ? rel="nofollow">">Google Plus</a></li><?php } ?>Hello! I was wondering, is it possible to change the size of the buttons in the main menu? I’m having a bit of a problem reading the text on my site. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Purdue, Go to Appearance> Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add these lines to the very bottom:
body #topmenu ul li a{font-size:16px!important;}
I need to completely remove the comments box from all pages. I’ve made the necessary edits in under Settings>Discussion, but the boxes themselves are still there. I know how to make this change in the twenty eleven theme, but I can’t figure it out in Zenon Lite. I need to eliminate the box completely.
Nevermind. I just realized that changing those settings doesn’t update existing pages. I was able to change all of those using “Quick Edit.” Thanks again for the great theme.
HI ! Really nice theme !
I would like to know just a little thing : when i have more than 3 posts, how do i set up the theme to just show the last 3 posts in the index page ….
Thank youuu!
Go to Settings>Reading and set the number of posts per page.
hi,
thanx for the great theme!
how can i make the email address, in the contact page, look like a link? (blue + underlined)?
gili
Go to Appearance>Editor and select “stylesheet” from right and add this line to the very bottom:
.single_post .post_content p a{color: #D73A36;}
hi again,
if i buy the pro, am i limited for the domains i can use?
it on
thanx …
gili
3 domains.
Why is there no picture box or button to add a picture like we see in the ad? This is pretty lame if there’s no picture. Very misleading. And there also are no social media buttons, which is very 1992. I ordered the upgrade but it’s a 6 hour wait for it? Not sure this is worth the headache – the template does not look like the ad.
I guess you are talking about the slider. Please Go to Appearance> Zenon Options > Documentation to read how to setup the slider pictures.
I just checked your site and noticed the social media icons are working fine, although you forgot to add http:// at the start of your link, thats why they are leading to a error page.
And Just sent you the PRO version. Check your email.
I had 2 comments from visitors about my sites:
“Just to let you know your web-site looks a little bit unusual in Firefox on my computer with Linux “, and
“The structure for your weblog is a tad off in Epiphany. Nevertheless I like your blog. I might have to use a normal web browser just to enjoy it”
Would you please give your comment about that..
What do you mean by unusual? can you elaborate?
that’s because I don’t use Linux. I’m sorry Towfiq, but those were not my comments, those came from my site visitors. For me, this theme is truly awesome. But, is this theme looks different if someone use linux and not?
I an sorry to say, I have no idea…
Hi – My hompage isn’t showing any of the homepage elements (slider, blocks, posts) even though I’ve created content for all of them. There’s just a big 404. Not sure what the issue is…
Note this is the test site so the “Home” link goes to where the site will eventually live.
Thanks.
Jane there’s something wrong with your permalink settings. Go to Settings> permalink and set it to default.
Then go to Settings> Reading and select “Your Latest Posts” as your front page.
My wp-admin was working fine yesterday while running your theme, but just tried to log in at
http://www.benchplane.com/wp-admin
to come up to a blank page. I haven’t messed with any of the files or theme files at all. Any idea what might be going on? Thank you!
Go to wp-content/themes/zenon_lite
and remove the entire “zenon_lite” folder with a FTP application. if there’s a problem with the theme, the site will come back to normal withe default theme.
Thank you! I found out that it was one of my plugins. I renamed the plugins folder temporarily and was able to access my admin.
Totally unrelated – do you know why I would be able to access “http://www.benchplane.com” and not just “benchplane.com”?
Thanks!
