 * Is this still happening for you? We’ve never been able to determine why the Eventbrite
   API gives this error (Eventbrite themselves don’t have a clear response as to
   why it happens either). It tends to just go away.

 * Hm, I can’t replicate this, not in Chrome nor Firefox.
 * It does sound like you have some JavaScript-related as the issue (that could 
   cause the buttons in the Customizer to not work). Any other ideas?

 * Hello,
 * I believe you have the wrong theme; this Debut doesn’t have a hero slider at 
   all. You’re probably looking for the [Debut theme on WordPress.com](https://wordpress.com/themes/debut/),
   which is by a company called Cedaro. You can post to the WordPress.com forums
   [here](https://en.forums.wordpress.com/).

 * Hi,
 * That front page doesn’t seem to have the Eventbrite Events page template applied
   to it; does that fix it? You can find additional details on how to set the page
   template in the “Assigning a page for your events” section here: [http://automattic.github.io/eventbrite-api/users.html](http://automattic.github.io/eventbrite-api/users.html)

 * Hi, glad you got the search widget sorted. Yes, it shows the search widget by
   default, which gets removed if you set your own widgets.
 * To stop people from commenting to other users, you would need to make a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes),
   and then remove the Reply button from comments. That way, users could only use
   the main comment box, and not reply to any certain comment.

 * Assuming you want the menu open (with its highlighted menu icon) when a page 
   loads, and then everything to function normally from that point on, you’ll need
   to add:
 * * `display: block;` at L1179 of `style.css` (which you’ve got already)
    * add
   the `active` class in `header.php` on L37: `class="toggle active"`
 * Your child theme needs a full copy of `header.php` (with that change above), 
   then it will override the parent theme. No need to muck with JS files.

 * Oh! I see what you mean. That widget area is fixed at a certain percentage width
   to make sure it doesn’t collide with the site title and description, regardless
   of screen width.
 * If you want to have banners across the top of your header, you would need to 
   [make a child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes), then modify header.
   php and the necessary CSS to go with it.

 * Hi there,
 * How did you insert the image in the header? Debut doesn’t support Custom Headers,
   so maybe there’s some CSS affecting what you’re doing?
 * If you can add a screenshot or live demo page, that can help too.

   In reply to: [[Twenty Fourteen] Featured Content: Limited to 6? Possible to randomize?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-content-limited-to-6-possible-to-randomize/)

 * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-content-limited-to-6-possible-to-randomize/#post-4417120)
 * Ah yes, I see; there’s also a hard-coded maximum that needs to be changed for
   greater than 6 posts (apologies, I was testing with 1-5 posts). Also change line
   475 in `inc/featured-content.php` to match your desired number of posts, and 
   you should be good.

 * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-content-limited-to-6-possible-to-randomize/#post-4417054)
 * To have Featured Content show random posts, we would need to add an `orderby`
   parameter to the section at line 169 in `inc/featured-content.php`, so that it
   looks like this:
 *     ```
       // Query for featured posts.
       $featured = get_posts( array(
       	'numberposts' => $settings['quantity'],
       	'tax_query'   => array(
       		array(
       			'field'    => 'term_id',
       			'taxonomy' => 'post_tag',
       			'terms'    => $tag,
       		),
       	),
       	'orderby'          => 'rand',
       ) );
       ```
   
 * Now, as Kathryn mentioned above, the proper way to make these changes is in a
   child theme. However, the above changes will not currently work if done in a 
   child theme; [we’re fixing that up](http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26660).
 * If you want to use the above changes, they’ll need to be done in the Twenty Fourteen
   theme itself, which means you’ll risk losing those changes when Twenty Fourteen
   gets updated. If you’re comfortable doing it anyways, you’ll also need to comment
   out two lines, also in `inc/featured-content.php`: lines 154 and 190.
 *     ```
       // $featured_ids = get_transient( 'featured_content_ids' );
       // set_transient( 'featured_content_ids', $featured_ids );
       ```

 * Hi,
 * This has been corrected now – you can download the fixed version on the [Able showcase page on WordPress.com](http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/able/).
   The download link is at the bottom right.
 * Thanks for your patience, let us know if you have any further problems.
