Short of rewriting you theme probably not.

What are you using to validate your html?

<div out="fadeOut" in="fadeIn" style="height: 259.767px; width: 479.767px; top: 0px; background: url("http://xn--canyoningallgu-iib.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Canyoning-Allgaeu-Gunzesried-Familie.jpg") no-repeat scroll left top / 100% auto transparent; margin-left: 0px; right: 0px; transform: rotate(0deg);" entrance="effect" id="square-lit" class="squareLitDemo shape animated fadeOut">

‘out’, ‘in’ and ‘entrance’ are not valid attributes in html mark up. their there to communicate with the javascript (probably a plugin) used by the theme developer on how to animate the div’s. the correct way to do this would have been using data-* i.e. ‘data-in’, ‘data-out’, ‘data-entrance’ which is valid html5 however changing them will more than likely break the javascript plugin doing the animating as it will also need to be changed to look for correctly named attributes.

Their not the end of the world as any browser that doesn’t know what to do with them will ignore them, it’s not neat or efficient but it shouldn’t break anything which is probably why the plugin/theme developer(s) haven’t noticed/fixed the issue.

If you bought the theme maybe raise a support tick if you can, pointing out that the theme doesn’t validate and uses non standard attributes. But the response will probably be its the javascript plugins fault

Hi

Translation of WordPress are just that, you just need to install the necessary language files. In fact the next version of WP 4.1 currently (beta) will let you install languages from the dashboard.

If you don’t want to wait.

Go to your wp-config.php file, near the bottom you should find lines that looks like:

/**
 * WordPress Localized Language, defaults to English.
 *
 * Change this to localize WordPress.  A corresponding MO file for the chosen
 * language must be installed to wp-content/languages. For example, install
 * de.mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to 'de' to enable German
 * language support.
 */
define ('WPLANG', '');

modify this to :
define('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');

then go to the dashboard > updates and hit check again,

You should then have the option to reinstall wordpress 4.0 fr_FR

NB. However this will only translate the UI of wordpress’ dashboard, your menus, tags, categories, and content will all still be in the language it was entered into the site.

If you want to translate that you’ll have to do it manually, there are plugins like WPML that support inline translation of content and multi lingual content.

Also you need to check that your theme actually supports translation, if it does you may have to create language files for it if french versions don’t exist.

Hi,

Theres a couple of ways to go about it depending on your skill level and how confident you are at editing your theme.

Option 1. – uses CSS to hide them.
Option 2. – edit the relevant template files in the theme to remove or change the parts you want to update.

so Option 1 – without editing your theme

1. Install the WordPress Jetpack plugin.
2. activate – custom CSS (should default to on, i think) – this will add a custom CSS menu item under Appearance in the admin area.
3. add the css below

body.category article.breadcrumbs {
    display: none;
}

NB this only hides the panel on category-archive pages.

body.single-post article.art-post.art-article:first-child {
    display:none;
}

this second block removed the nav block on single posts templates, however this second block is CSS3 which only work in modern browsers i.e. ie7+
see browser support

if you don’t want to install jetpack you can add the css to the very bottom of the style.css in your folder theme.

Option 2.
Is more complicated as you need to figure out where in the theme those blocks are coming from and edit them to change what they output.

So for categories template order

1. category-slug.php
2. category-ID.php
3. category.php
4. archive.php
5. index.php

one of the follow temples is generating that content, probably not the first two, 3 and four are most likely, if 3 doesnt exist then its 4 ‘archives.php’

Once you figured out which template is being used you need to find some code that looks like:

<article class="art-post art-article  breadcrumbs" style="">
         ......
</article>

and delete it or comment it out. trouble is it maybe wrapped in/contain various <?php .. ?> code sections which may make it harder to spot.

and rise and repeat for the second one, this time you need to edit ‘single.php’ and find and delete something that looks like.

<article class="art-post art-article " style="">
     <div class="art-postcontent clearfix">
     <div class="navigation">
     <?php posts_nav_link(); ?>
     </div></div>
</article>

Without seeing the actual templates files its hard to explain exactly what to delete.

Hope that helps.
