 * I am currently using…instead trying to use Matala theme by Matt. But from the
   start i am having series(DAMN!) of problems,when i solve one, next is there, 
   now the final problem is not getting over even after soooooooo long hectic, so
   THANK God i find you, can you please guide with the following 3 problem(s)
 * 1. I want to have picture gallery functionality like that of Ma.tt ,for this 
   i created a catagory named “Gallery” and posted photos in it , i made another
   post same way ,but in both posts only the date of post as title is appearing ,
   not the “title” as in Ma.tt . How can i make appear “titles” as album titles 
   instead of “dates”??????
 * 2. Although i have 2 albums, when i click on “view more albums” in any of the
   two posts, there appears a 404 page not found error. How i get rid of it?
 * 3. when i click on the “gallery” menu the the address URL appears in not “…/gallery”
   as Ma.tt have, instead there appears “…?cat=11” type URL. How can i get like 
   yours or Ma.tt ‘s ???
 * My blog is : [http://grammaticalmistakes.encorbus.com](http://grammaticalmistakes.encorbus.com)
 * Please you being the last resort, dont disappoint me:(

 * The latest 1.5.7 version is a slightly modified copy of the one on .com. We’ll
   be uploading a newer version shortly which will sync a few more of the most recent
   changes.

 * Next Q how do I translate the theme? I want it in Swedish… Do I have to go through
   all files or can I use a language file? If I can translate through a file I could
   share the file with other Swedes.

 * I customized the background for a friend’s blog but when we uploaded the theme,
   the menu strip doesn’t seem to be expanding like it should and the little ink
   circle selector is acting all wonky. Not appearing on pages other than the home
   page. The site I’m having issues with is [http://evelynlafont.com](http://evelynlafont.com).
   If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thank you!

 * Stephanys: Your cusomheader looks cut of in my resolution 1900 wide. Otherwise
   it looks great and seems to be working fine now.
 * BellerBaker: There are several widget areas for you to place your social media
   Widgets I have Twitter there for ex.

 * I’m having trouble with the ‘bottom bits’ of the columns. Can someone tell me
   what I’m doing wrong or where to look? I thought something was wrong with the
   bg-secondary-bottom.png/bg-primary-bottom.png, but the css looks ok to me.
 * Any help much appreciated! Thanks!

 * desibel: Did they work before you started to change background and top?
    And 
   did you replace the top and Bg from the admin panel or through FTP?
 * If you change it through the admin panel it will strip it too lok like yours.
   But if you replace the original images through FTP I think that might change 
   your problem. Not sure where you went wrong though, this is just a guess from
   my side.

 * [@miss_ww](https://wordpress.org/support/users/miss_ww/): I replaced all files
   through ftp and i remember them being there before i replaced the images. It 
   seems as if they’re only visible if the text in both columns is long enough, 
   so they’re back now! Thanks though!

   org and I am happy with everything except when you change the background it just
   becomes white squares. Can I design a background on photoshop which has the torn
   edge look and if what is the best dimensions (pixels) so I can redesign the top
   atleast?
