Can you provide a step by step tutorial of how i can link a post to those drop down menus (the horizontal links at the top: home download social etc etc)
You can link your labels as categories in the menu, by fetching the label url and just replacing the # with the url.
Help my drop down menu in mobile version is not working. Your fast reply would be helpful 🙂
my blog is linked at my disqus profile 🙂
Add the menu code again from the documentation. Please do it again.
The odd box is not appearing too. Please help
Hello dear, you have changed the code of the template or added your own code, I would suggest you to please use the original code of the template and it will work fine. Still you have any problems contact us at oddthemes@gmail.com.
Thanks
How do I do that just reinstall again?
Open the .xml file and copy its contents, now goto blogger Edit Template and replace the template with the new copied and then Save the template.
Thanks! Best template ever!
Thanks 🙂
You have wrongly copied the Menu code, the UL CLASS is TOPMENU1 not MENU1.
Use this:
Use this instead of in the layout section main menu.
I’m so happy it works now! Thanks so much! ❤️
Hello, I’m using a free version of this template and odd box is also not appearing. I haven’t changed anything in the code, I entered the same label that is used in posts and nothing appears. Could you help me fix this?
Please contact us at oddthemes@gmail.com with your blog URL and stating your problem. Thanks
Dear Oddtheme Team, I installed the template (and I love it!), but I can´t edit the main menu bar. I´ve copied the HTML-Code in this discription (as discripted at point 5) in the content area and tried to replace # with the label url. It´s not working. It says “page doesn´t exit”. And the URL is shown as this: https://happyandcity.blogspot.de/happyandcity.blogspot.de/search/label/happiness
How can I fix this?
Thank you for your answer!
Greetings from Germany,
Bibi
Edit your menu widget and delete the (” “) double quotes and again put the double quotes. It will work fine.
Please help. I purchased this template and receive a zip file to download – the template file is empty? Also, I purchased the licensed version and the documentation says I am unable to edit the footer – I thought by buying the license I would be able to edit? Please advise.
Upon purchasing, you can edit the footer.
How do I code the follow us area?
<span class="follow-us-sidebar">
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-heart"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a>
</span>
Hi, the odd box won’t work, it was literally working an hour ago except i changed the word and labels to match the new one, and still it doesn’t work

I just have a question about the instagram feed. I followed the instruction but is does not seem to work. How can i do ?
Thank you very much for your help!
Hello dear, please share your blog url so that we can check that everything is okay or not. Also you check for these 4 things on your blog yourself:
1. Blog Feeds are set to FULL
2. Your blog is PUBLIC

4. You have Google Plus profile associated with your blog.
Thanks
Hello,
Here is the address of my blog : http://evangelines-corner.blogspot.fr. As ou can see, my Instagram feed does not appear.
I don’t know where i made the mistake
Hello~First, thanks for the great theme.
It’s easy to use and clear to manager, only I can’t get odd box working….
http://www.healthstartsat40.com/
A little bit help, please !
I guess you’ve resolved your issue on your own. Thanks for using our template
Thank you for this amazing template! ^^ It looks awesome.
I have a question: Is there a way to change “Read More” text?
I’ve been trying to change it but I couldn’t find how to do it.
Hey Thanks… You will be able to change the Read More text in full version as free version template is encrypted.
Thanks for replying. ^^
Thank you for this awesome template, it has been incredibly useful!
I was wondering if you could please help me out with my oddbox and instagram feed? I’ve tried following the instructions carefully, but it still doesn’t work unfortunately… Thank you! 🙂

My featured boxes at the top are not showing the same box effect as the author image and the post image – how do I fix this? http://nolovelike.blogspot.co.uk/
Your featured box has white image, so the borders effect is not visible. Just add more posts.
The box is already there inside the image – I can see it, it just doesn’t appear when you hover over it, it is just constantly there
Yes the demo also has this thing on featured boxes. They don’t have the effect on hover but all other things have. Please check again. Thanks
Oh, I thought it had the effect. Okay, thank you for your fast reply
Also, is there a way to get social media buttons in the follow us box in the side bar?
Here is the code:
<span class="follow-us-sidebar">
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-heart"></i></a>
<a href="#"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a>
</span>
Do I just put this in the edit box of the layout section?
Thank you for the code!
Also, is there a way to get social media buttons in the follow us box in the side bar?
So, for some reason, I can’t figure out the Oddbox.
http://www.tiffanysbookblog.com/
I figured it out, thank you.
Love the template, makes my blog look so professional.
To the top menu (home, about me etc) how do I add a page to that so when I click on about me up the top it goes to a page all about me?
Thanks
Thankyou. Add a page in blogger, open the page in browser to get the url of the page. After copying the url, paste it here like this:
<ul class="topmenu1" id="masthead">
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yourwebsite.com/p/ aboutme.html">About Me</a>
</ul>
Yay! Thank you ?
Hi ! The menu doesn’t appear on my phone. It works on my computer. How can I fix this problem ?
Make sure your UL has the class TOPMENU1 and ID = MASTHEAD. Recheck your code.
<ul class="topmenu1" id="masthead">
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yourwebsite.com">About Me</a>
</ul>
the main images are opaque and unfocused, and even moving the mouse to the effect of edges it is still opaque as tidy to this standard size in html

Hello, I am unable to understand what problems are you facing?? Are you talking about the Homepage or Postpage? Please elaborate more…!
in the homepage, the image is not in the correct pixel. The image is blurred because of the expansion to stay on the homepage. ex: wrong> http://prnt.sc/cn1ycq Right > http://prntscr.com/cn1zgo
the pixel stay wrong because of the homepage display standard
It was basically not to be out of focus, but with a larger viewing because of the image of 3000px I use in every post.
If you do not understand no problem XD can survive it. The template is very good, congratulations!
sorry about my english :/
The design has 2 columns and the width are equal so the image will stretch a little to fill the width of the columns. So I suggest you to please use at least 350px width image in post. Thanks
Thank you for replying 😀
Hello! It seems the delete option for comments on posts are gone. How can I fix this?
Hello! I am in love with this theme. Do you happen to have social icons for email and snapchat? If so, what are the names for them (e.g. fa-fa-snapchat)? If not, would it be possible to add these social icons to the list? Thank you so much!
– Linda
http://www.SmallStepstoHappiness.net
Hi, yes snapchat code is : “fa fa-snapchat”
You can get whole lot of social media icons from here: http://fontawesome.io/icons/

.header {margin-bottom: 10px;}
</style>

Hi, I purchased this theme few days ago, I love it and it works fine. Nevertheless I’m facing a couple of little problems:
1. in the home it display only 5 posts (2+2+1) even if the settings are 6 or 8. Second page is fine, third or fourth again same issue, I don’t know what may cause that, maybe an alignment issue?
2. when a category is selected from the category box, it disappear from the list and shifted on the right side of the box, I saw that the same happens in the Couture live demo.
3. and most important: since when I updated with this new theme the links in the posts are not changing color, this is a problem cause people miss the links.. please help me figure this out! thank you!
