    [b]My media files won’t play[/b]

    It may be that the server doesn’t recognize the media types. You’ll have to register their MIME types. Add this to your .htaccess file:

    AddType audio/ogg .ogg
    AddType audio/mpeg .mp3
    AddType video/ogg .ogv
    AddType video/webm .webm
    AddType video/mp4 .mp4
    AddType video/x-m4v .m4v

    [b]I can’t upload large files[/b]

    This is a limitation from your hosting provider. Try adding the following to your .htaccess file:

    php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
    php_value max_execution_time 800
    php_value post_max_size 128M
    php_value max_input_time 800
    php_value memory_limit 128M

    128M is the maximum file size. 64M should be enough if you’re uploading Video and 16M if you’re uploading Audio.

    [b]I uploaded more media files, but I only see one[/b]

    Post formats are designed so only one media file is shown. The other detected files are used as fallback sources for the first one. If you would like to embed more media, a plugin may be more helpful.

    Tried to make changes here for the images to be framed in the slider. Didn\’t find the right one to make it look like the demo. http://www.ssserv.com/MarkScheyerPhotography/ Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Hey Daniel,

    thanks for your great theme!
    Unfortunately there is a problem with the gallery view when showing just one or two articles. Then the images are not getting big enough on a mouse over. Even in the demo this issue occurs. How can I fix that?

    Thanks!

    #3412

    I’m having the same problem:

    http://thisbeatisyourbeat.com/?cat=31

    For any galleries showing less than 3 photos, when you hover over the image, the slider doesn’t expand all the way. I haven’t seen any solutions posted on your forums about this.

    Please help!

    Thx,

    Add at least 4 posts and the problem will disappear.

    #3450

    Hi Daniel – I realize that adding at least 4 posts is a workaround to my problem. But I was hoping there was another way to address the problem (the way I’ve got my categories and sub-categories set up, it’s likely I will have a new sub-category which starts with 1 post, and will take some time before I have enough content for 4 posts).

    I’ve been using Firebug to examine the CSS and try to find workarounds, but I’m hitting a brick wall (the closest I got was to make the overlay property “visible” instead of “hidden” but that introduced other problems…).

    So, my questions are:

    1) Are there plans to release an update to Minimatica that addresses this bug?
    2) If not, can you provide some quick pointers as to which part of the CSS I should muck around with to come up with a workaround in the meantime?

    Thanks much!

    Daniel,
    Loving the website and my vistors are too.
    Wondering though if theres a way of moving the navigation bar from bottom to top, above the gallery?
    It would mean the world to me to move it and not have to change theme due to the particular feedback.

    Hi Daniel,

    I am having the same issue as Michael, where I made my own 940 x 100 logo, but now it does not redirect to the home page when you click on it (like it was doing before I changed it). Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Thanks!

    Hello

    When I cut and paste my beautifully formatted Word doc into a post, using the little tab for “Paste from Word”, the formatting is there until I click the insert button, at which point, it all looks like it has been produced using a typewriter. Why can’t I keep my formatting? (coloured tables, different sizes of fonts etc)

    Hello

    I have just installed Minimatica to WordPress, I am not really too advanced in web building, however I could work it out…

    I was looking at adding images to the slider, however I can not work out the way to add them… can someone please help… you can see the site at http://www.philipjriley.com and you can see what I mean …

    Many thanks!

    Hi Philip

    The photos on the front page are featured images of each individual post. When you create a post, if you scroll down, at the bottom on the right hand side is a box saying “set featured image”. Follow the instructions and this is the image that will appear on your home page for that post.

    Hope this helps

    Hi,

    How do I manage the settings so that some posts do not show up in the feature slider on the home page?

    Thank you!

    Best,
    Xiao
