The default theme is light. But you can change to your preferred color scheme on your user navigation options, or at the bottom of the website if you're not logged in.

No problem I can do a translation of the theme in Arabic after buying it
Is this allowed,Would you let me do that??

Oh, my bad. I only understood now what you were asking.
Yes, you can have whatever language for your Q2A platform, it will automatically translate.
Arabic is on the list of supported languages, already translated.

Your theme is very cool. I'm using a plugins called "advanced tag descriptions" which is important to me.

Just wanna ask you if it works well with your theme.

Is your theme a one-year subscription or life-time one?

Answer 7

donut theme

muffin

It s with all posts where text formatted. If I change to normal it s ok. Can you resolve this please.

Comments

I use WYSIWYG Editor

---

I've checked your website. It appears your Editor outputs code differently.
While in Markdown Editor and other Editors the code is outputted like this:

<pre>
    <code>

Yours is just a raw <pre> without a <code> tag as a child element. To fix this problem just give the ability to scroll to the <pre> tag instead of <code> by default.

Open muffin theme folder, go to CSS > custom-styles.css and paste the following bit of code and save it.

pre {
    overflow: auto;
}

If you can't see the changes after completing the steps, open the file qa-theme.php
On line 54 - At the end of the link, change this link part.

css/custom-styles.css
change to
css/custom-styles.css?v=2

Adding this little version formula at the end, will notify your browser that there's a new version of this file and will force to clear website cache and update the modifications for everybody that previously visited your site.

---

Rather than scroll, CSS should do linebreak as done in Donut theme.

Answer 8

There is an issue with Muffin theme on smaller screens. Sometimes the qa-sidepanel is coming above the qa-main (bad user experience) and sometimes below as expected. I'm not sure whats wrong here and how it can be fixed. This can be seen by reducing the window width at https://gateoverflow.in/questions

Comments

Yea, I did that first and couldn't replicate this. Only when refreshing the page the theme changes for mobile theme and DOM elements get rearranged accordingly.

---

Please see this link on mobile now. I have disabled aven theme for now. So it's all Muffin

Ahh I can see it now.
I don't know what's going on, but a lot of things are going on, on your site xD

I'm thinking somewhere around your code or your plugins, you're cloning and rewriting DOM parts. I can't tell which parts, but the rewriting probably starts around the element "qa-main-wrapper". Probably your <link> tags as well, that's where I think the problem is coming from. So the CSS styling computation when rendering gets "confused".

You have a "float: none!important;" property set to "qa-main" , which should resolve the problem, but somehow the site isn't even reading the !important statement as it should be. It's acting like a normal "float: none;" without the !important part, and it's acting like this rule wasn't even defined there. It's not reading it at all.

But if you inspect element and toggle the "float: none!important;" on and off. You'll see that the sidebar goes to where it's supposed be, as now is reading the property as it should be.

This issue doesn't happen on normal Muffin as you can see in demo site. The "!important" statement it's not even necessary there, because this rule, comes at the very bottom of the CSS stylesheet, to apply this only for smaller screens.

--------------

How to solve it?

Open Muffin theme, go to: CSS > custom-styles.css
and paste the following code:

    @media (max-width: 1050px) {
        .qa-sidepanel {
            display: table-footer-group;
        }
    }

Save it, and Re-upload file.

Cheers

Thanks a lot, it works  AFAIK except for the custom home page there should not be any DOM rewrite done via plugins. That "important" was added by me but was not helping. I'll keep this issue in mind if something happens again.
