 * That was all it took, I had started on it in December and .. it had expired, 
   that was the only reason why it wasn’t listed. Looks like I am all set, will 
   launch the site as soon as I load it up with content now.

 * I am using the code you created in the new site. I am adding tide charts to the
   custom post type. The one place I am stuck is trying to display, what after reading
   the docs, looks like the ‘archive’ page correctly. The first post has the url:
   /
   tidecharts/january-2015/ which works and shows the page.
 * However when I pull up /tidecharts/ it says there is nothing in the archive page
   to display.
 * 1. I want to get that url working if possible. 2. I would like to ensure that
   it display the posts in the reversed date order. I see in the code, the query
   is already re-sorted to display in oldest first order. So it looks like I just
   need to figure out how to display the data that gets loaded in the $tidecharts_queries
   variable in the last line of the function on the /tidecharts/ page.
 * This may have something to do with adding a file called archive-{post_type}.php
   or archive-tidecharts.php file in my case to the child theme. I am not sure exactly
   how to structure that file. I figure I may need to reference the tidecharts_queries
   variable in it somehow.
 * I cannot yet provide a working url, its on a development server. Shortly after
   figuring this out, I am going to switch the dns over soon.. wanted to get this
   working first but really I have an idea how I can at least make it work in the
   interim another way which would allow me to go ahead and switch the dns, then
   I could post a url ..

 * It seems like its a font display issue that is related to firefox.
 * After reading the thread, I tried to recreate the issue in chrome and they display
   fine.
 * Will keep messing around with it.. must be some minor issue. I tried checking
   the ‘let sites choose their own fonts’ but it was already enabled..

 * >Sometimes, you need to refresh the browser, and wait until the page has loaded
   completely.
 * The page is loaded. Literally in the source code ( I looked ) it shows no html
   markup, literally just a “-1” and thats it.
 * >You could also click “Enable Support” at the top of the admin page, and I’ll
   take a look for you.
 * I did already the other day before posting. Maybe the setting didn’t go through,
   when I clicked the button at the bottom of the page that loads the diagnostic
   info, the same page refreshed again.. I was wondering if something else was supposed
   to happen.
 * Do I need to send you the information that it loads to the page in an email? 
   I can do that as well..
 * edit – updated to the current 2.5 version. still no luck with the run now version
   but I see the plugin is working and backing it up automatically everynight and
   the full weekly one as well.

 * >The settings should show up in a modal window ( lightbox )
 * This is very interesting, I actually did not know this plugin was supposed to
   work from a lightbox / modal window. So far, all the sites I had used it on (
   even ones where the run now button was working), the plugin loaded on an all 
   white page. Could it be a browser issue? I am running FF 27.0.1
 * I guess I could try and recreate the issue in another browser..

 * [@breisi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/breisi/) – Are you running the 
   plugin Nexgen gallery by any chance?
 * I was thinking about my issue and remembered that plugin has caused compatibility
   issues in the past. From what I understand it adds a bunch of database tables,
   thus may complicate the process.
 * I also had Simple WordPress Backup plugin installed ( but disabled ) on this 
   site when I had the error.
 * [@paul](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paul/) de Wouters – I just updated
   to the latest version and still experienced the error. I just clicked “enable
   support” as you requested. Please advise when you have a chance and if there 
   is anything I can do to help message me or post here and I will respond asap.

 * Thank you for the response. Nice to know this is on the way.
 * I am starting to like this theme, its functional in a lot of ways. Wish there
   was a little more direct way to edit the home page content.
 * Can you give an estimate on when those features will be available?
 * The one I am using this theme on is ready to launch the site… I may just have
   to make it work for the time being with an inline slide show or custom code one
   in for now.

 * Same thing happened to me.
 * Did you customize the header.php file in your child theme? They recoded that 
   file a fair bit. Make a new copy of that file in your child theme, re-insert 
   your customizations and hopefully you will be back on track.

 * Hrmm.. works in my child theme. I am not using the custom css box that you inserted
   the code into. Maybe have to add some more !important declarations to it:
 *     ```
       .carousel .item {
           line-height: 500px !important;
           min-height: 500px !important;
           overflow: visible !important;
       }
       ```

 * > Link to your website?
    The site I am working on currently has a coming soon
   page activated, thus its hard to link to a working example. We will be launching
   this week.
 * > Where did you add this code?
    The code is in my child theme.
 * > why does it say 1200px? The best width is 1170px right?
    I thought I saw 1200
   in the theme docs, but I saw the 1170px width suggested in the forum, maybe this
   helps with that situation, I should try it.
 * I will post the link to it when its live. the people are happy with the css mods
   I implemented in this post.. they really were upset about the clipping as they
   are making some pages with a single image collage at the top and you could only
   see about half the images in the bottom row when it was displaying full screen
   and sometimes when resized.
 * I posted because I figured someone else had tried to mod the theme in this manner
   and was looking for general feedback on the subject. Thanks for taking a look
   at the thread.

 * For those in this thread still seeking a solution, in the thread I linked to 
   in my last post, a member was kind enough to post a solution and it also worked
   for me:
 * Go to Gallery Settings and set templates for all the display types. I am not 
   sure which one fixed my problem, I just set the first one for each place it offered
   a selection ( each one was blank when I first looked ). Save and go back to your
   funky looking page, should be all better now.

 * Thanks for posting this. I have a backup of the 1.9.7 version which is what I
   used when I built the site & was considering this option as well. Glad to hear
   it worked because my first question was if doing so would cause other issues (
   say the database structure had changed).
 * I know its not a sure thing, but nice to know that you fixed your site using 
   this method.
