Hey Chao,
Ikebana envisages only one template for the portfolio page, and all pages with that template will display all “project”-type items. One possible workaround is to use portfolio tag archive pages, e.g. this one in the demo. The tag archives are generated automatically and display portfolio items belonging to a particular tag; they have an URL of the form: yourwebsite.com/tag-portfolio/name where “name” is the name of the portfolio tag. You can add portfolio tag archive pages to the menu in “Appearance -> Menus” (in case tags are not shown among the menu insertion options, please click the top-right “Screen Options” tab and choose both “Tags” checkboxes from the list.
Please let me know if this addresses your needs!
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioDear Gina,
I’m glad the masonry issue has been resolved!
Regarding the menu positioning – full-width logos were not envisaged by the theme’s architecture; you can try inserting the following code into the “Style: Add Custom CSS” tab of the Theme Options panel:
#logo-wrap { position: inherit !important; }
yet in general this qualifies as a theme customization and I would recommend hiring a specialist with knowledge of HTML and CSS to tweak the menu into the desired way (Fiverr and Tweaky offer some very attractive pricing on such tasks).Thank you for understanding!
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioHey Gabriel,
the blog page of your website looks like this in my Chrome browser – and it seems to be displaying all elements as intended. If this is not the case on your machine, please send me a screenshot or tell me which browser (and its version) you are using. Thanks!
Regarding the background image cropping – the current mechanism is the most efficient known rule, based on the CSS “background-size: cover” declaration. Since there are so many different possible screen sizes, any non-automated rules work less efficiently, according to experience; moreover, the background image will be cropped differently on various screen dimensions, i.e. the way it looks on your machine is not necessarily the way it will look for other users. You could try cropping the bottom half of the image before uploading it as a background image as well.
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioHey Lee Ann,
please download this archive, unzip it, and upload into the theme’s folder via ftp (/wp-content/themes/Ikebana/) replacing the existing file. Let me know if this fixes the problem!

Andrew / Satori StudioDear Lee Ann,
– Regarding the logo positioning: this is a known issue, this bug has been fixed in version 1.4 of the theme; I’ve updated your website’s files and now the logo displays correctly. Please accept my apologies for any inconveniences! Note that I’ve adjusted the “Logo width” and “Header section height” fields in the “Page Elements” tab of the Theme Options panel to accomodate the existing logo image most efficiently; you can change them back to “175” and “100” if you deem necessary. I would recommend uploading a new logo image with wider margins on all sides so that the header could be made thicker without losing in the quality of the logo.
– Concerning the “Social Media” tag filter: it seems that the filter only accepts single words, which is why changing the “Filter” field in the relevant icon menu item on the “Icon Menu” tab of the Theme Options panel did fix the issue. I will think of a way to eliminate this source of confusion in the next version update of Ikebana. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioHey Gabriel,
– Regarding the order of items on portfolio tag archive pages: please note that it is not a bug but rather an intended behaviour – sticky posts appear before everything else, as envisaged by the WordPress guidelines; however, if you wish the tag information boxes to appear first, here is a custom file for you: please download it, unzip the archive and upload the contained file into your theme folder.
– Concerning the second question: does the page including the header appear displaced permanently or only during the loading time? If the latter, then it is not a bug – the margins of pages in Ikebana are set by using jQuery to ensure that they are always in agreement with the width of the content; jQuery can only start calculating the margins when all HTML elements are loaded, which may lead to such behaviour.
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioDear Leslye,
– Regarding the Twitter widget: please try downloading this archive, unzipping it, and uploading the resulting folder into the following directory:
/wp-content/plugins/
replacing any existing files. Then go to “Appearance -> Widgets” and apply the Twitter widget to the sidebar of your choice. The new version of the widget should ask you to create several tokens and keys using the Twitter API.– The URL of the development website that you’ve provided does not work – could you please double-check?
– Which URL do you have in mind in your last question?
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori StudioDear Reiner,
I will test your website on an Apple device as soon as I get a chance, so far I’ve tried to open it in Chrome on my Android-based smartphone, and it seems to be working.
Meanwhile, I think I have one potential reason for the crashes: your website is very large in size (14.8 MB, mainly because of images, e.g. this one alone is 3 MB). This makes it quite slow by any standard (see detailed results of speed test) and might also contribute to its operation on mobile-devices, which are in general more sensitive to resource-consuming websites and applications. I highly recommend optimizing the images on your website to reduce their size to no more than 500 KB per image, and trying to reduce the size of the entire website to a maximum of 3-5 MB (the less, the better!). Please let me know if by any chance the website stops crashing on mobile devices after that (you’ll need to refresh your mobile browsers to check it out).
Sincerely,
Andrew / Satori Studio
