    Hi, I have one question on Japibas: it is a very nice theme, and I’m trying to set it up for my blog. Actually I wrote a post to be shown in the slider, and it works well, with the clickable header.
    But if I make the same associating it to a 900×220 image, the image itself is not clickable thus I can’t get to the article. How can I make it clickable? thanks a lot!

    Hello,
    My question:
    How to set categories defined in WordPress (last version) in the menu bar of Japibas theme?
    Only pages appear in the menu bar…
    On Setting, I did not exlude any pages from Categories but categories do not appear in the menu.
    Thank you

      Hello,

      As said in the post, the theme hasn’t been updated since 2009. So it’s currently not using the WordPress 3.0 menu editor.

      I’m working on an update for the theme right now but I don’t know when it’s done. Try to google some tutorials on the new menu and edit the header.php and functions.php yourself.

  11. Awesome, man! :-)
    Thanks!

      1. I don’t know. I haven’t tested the theme with bbPress. You could try to follow this guide

      2. Is your browser width lower than 1050px? The scrollbar shows then the width is lower than 1050px. It properly should be lower

      You can create a child theme and add this in the child theme style.css:

      @media all and (max-width: 1050px) { html, body { overflow-x: hidden; } }

      It will be changed in the dev version of Japibas soon.

      • Aravind siger:

        I’m using mozilla firefox version 11. is its width less than 1050px? And i can’t create a child theme. Can i edit any code in the parent theme itself. if so which one please specify. Thank you.

      • Aravind siger:

        Problem solved buddy. I’ve edited that code in the parent theme style.css itself.
        BTW its a very good theme. Thanks for such a nice and fast response. Awaiting for more free good themes.

      • Jesper siger:

        Great! And thanks :)
