    The theme author no longer provides support so I am posting here. I would appreciate any instructions or tips on how to resolve the points below.

    Point 1
    When I go to the homepage, the post images that are located above the button Load More Posts do not overlap, but when I click on the button Load More Posts, the post images that load below the button overlap. What’s causing the post images to overlap and how could it be resolved?

    Point 2
    When I open any single post, there is a lot of whitespace between the post title and the post’s feature image. What’s causing this and how could it be resolved?

    Point 3
    When I open any single post, above the post title, there are date, author, category, and comment count listed. How could this be hidden?

    Point 4
    The website is one language and that is Serbian. However, the ‘Share This’ and ‘Load More Posts’ texts are still not in that language. How can the ‘Load More Posts’ pagination button text be changed to some other text? The ‘Share This’ text is located at the bottom of any single post, how could this text be changed?

    1. I don’t see an issue with the images on the homepage.

    2 Customizer –> Additional CSS :

    .main-content--m-plus .single__header .post__head {
    margin-top: 30px;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
}

    3. Customizer –> Additional CSS : 

    .article-single--post .post__head .post__meta {
    font-family: "Montserrat",sans-serif;
    font-weight: 400;
    font-style: normal;
    font-size: 18px;
    line-height: 1em;
    margin-bottom: 15px;
    display: none;
}

    Sorry, @corrinarusso I didn’t realize you had responded already. You can blame the coffee for that… I started writing and paused for coffee 😀

    As much as we’d like to help, it’s really difficult (and sometimes downright impossible) to help when we don’t have access to the theme in question to be able to install it — as is the case with a commercial theme like Sleek.

    Point 1
    When I go to the homepage, the post images that are located above the button Load More Posts do not overlap, but when I click on the button Load More Posts, the post images that load below the button overlap. What’s causing the post images to overlap and how could it be resolved?

    I spent quite some time on your site, but I couldn’t figure out what’s causing this or how it can be resolved.

    When I open any single post, there is a lot of whitespace between the post title and the post’s feature image. What’s causing this and how could it be resolved?

    That space is there by design, and it’s coming from the CSS code below in the theme. If you want to reduce this space, copy this CSS code into APPEARANCE => CUSTOMIZE => ADDITIONAL CSS, but change the values from 80px to whatever lower value you desire. 

    .main-content--m-plus .single__header .post__head {
margin-top: 80px;
margin-bottom: 80px;
}

    Point 3
    When I open any single post, above the post title, there are date, author, category, and comment count listed. How could this be hidden?

    Use this CSS code to hide them all:

    .post__meta {
display:none;
}

    Point 4
    The website is one language and that is Serbian. However, the ‘Share This’ and ‘Load More Posts’ texts are still not in that language. How can the ‘Load More Posts’ pagination button text be changed to some other text? The ‘Share This’ text is located at the bottom of any single post, how could this text be changed?

    These English language texts are coming from the theme, and the only way to replace them is to edit the theme files. And as we don’t have access to the theme files, we’re unable to help you at all.

    Good luck!

    corrinarusso and George Appiah,

    1) The images of the articles which are located at the very bottom below the load more posts button overlap one another both on Chrome and Edge. Is there any specific theme file I could provide that could help with troubleshooting?

    2) The following code of yours solved it

    .main-content--m-plus .single__header .post__head {
    margin-top: 30px;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
}

    3) The following code of yours solved it

    .post__meta {
display:none;
}

    4) Upon being told that the texts come from the theme, I checked and found those strings in the theme/languages/en_US.po file. Translating the strings and renaming both the po and the mo file to sr_RS solved it.

    Thank you both for your guidance and for helping me resolve this. How can I repay you for your support?

    I still don’t see this – in Opera.

    Using a laptop, I click on the Load More Posts button and the images below the button overlap each other. But if I manually reduce the browser window size and then maximize it, the images stop overlapping and the layout becomes fixed.

    What could be causing this?
