Hi @johnworthy,
Thanks for using my theme RedWaves lite!
Well, you don’t have to edit the theme functions.php or anything like that! From your WordPress dashboard, Go to Appearance => Customize, open the “Article Settings” tab and scroll down until you see “Post Author Box” option and the fancy switch/checkbox just below it. Uncheck it to hide the Author box and Check it to enable the Author box. Just that simple!

Sorry for the late answer mate! if you like the theme, please rate it!
If you still need help, please create a new topic at our Support Forum.

Regards 🙂

Well, change

'mid_size' => 2,

to:

'mid_size' => 0,

Or use the built in pagination function. To do so change:

<?php // if WP version 4.1.0 or above use the_posts_pagination() built in function.
		if (4.1 <= floatval(get_bloginfo('version'))):?>
		<?php the_posts_pagination( array(
			'mid_size' => 0,
			'prev_text' => __( '‹ Previous', 'redwaves-lite' ),
			'next_text' => __( 'Next ›', 'redwaves-lite' ),
		) ); ?>
		<?php else : ?>
		<?php redwaves_pagination(); ?>
		<?php endif; ?>

to:

<?php redwaves_pagination(); ?>

Hi uebas, Thanks for using my theme RedWaves lite!

I have 2 fixes for your issue! choose the one you like more:

Fix1: This will add a bottom padding to the pagination buttons so they won’t stick vertically to each other again:

Go to Appearance => Customize => Design & Layout and put the following CSS styles in the Custom CSS textfield then save.

.nav-links .page-numbers {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

Alternatively, you can add them directly to your style.css file.

Fix2: This will shorten the pagination buttons by removing (in your case) the “1” and “5”:

open index.php from WordPress file editor (Appearance => Editor then select index.php from the sidebar) or using FTP or CPanel and find this block of code:

<?php // if WP version 4.1.0 or above use the_posts_pagination() built in function.
		if (4.1 <= floatval(get_bloginfo('version'))):?>
		<?php the_posts_pagination( array(
			'mid_size' => 2,
			'prev_text' => __( '‹ Previous', 'redwaves-lite' ),
			'next_text' => __( 'Next ›', 'redwaves-lite' ),
		) ); ?>

and replace it with this:

<?php // if WP version 4.1.0 or above use the_posts_pagination() built in function.
		if (4.1 <= floatval(get_bloginfo('version'))):?>
		<?php the_posts_pagination( array(
			'mid_size' => 1,
			'prev_text' => __( '‹ Previous', 'redwaves-lite' ),
			'next_text' => __( 'Next ›', 'redwaves-lite' ),
		) ); ?>
