Archives and categories
Hie,
Very good theme ! My customer can really edit pages and make it responsive ! It changed my life !
I noticed that templates for archives and categories do not work the same as the whole website. And that theme options do no work completly.
Template for archives (month) : generates a page with an article without title or link and lists articles at the bottom of the page, no sidebar.
Template for categories : same thing.
Theme options for blog not working : excerpt does not work (no excerpt at all), no translation for "do you like it", no way to customize easyly an article block.
For categories I found a workaround with mod_rewrite, redirection 301 on a self-crafted page with visual composer or muffin builder using "blog" object. But the slider blog object has no drop down list to choose a category (not user friendly for my customer). I redirect /category/<category_name>/ to blog-<category-name>/ and I must create a page for each category. Inconvenient is that I can't do it for categories without articles because muffin builder/visual composer blog object does not find empty categories.
But for archives, I did not find any workaround, so I cannot use both archives and calendar : it serves something no one can understand.
Take a look :
- http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/blog/ => self-crafted page with blog object listing all articles, because default blog page is non intuitive
- http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/category/evenements/ redirected to a self crafted page http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/blog-evenements/ so I can avoid this silly template
- non intuitive archive page : http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/2015/01/ generating something unreadable and not intuitive => no sidebar, no link, no title, no excerpt but full article etc...
Have you got solution or suggestion I did not find in the documentation ?
Thanks a lot !

1. http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/blog/ - and what you want to do on this page? Because we do not understand.
2. If your pages are redirected this must be related with wordpress installation because .htaccess is responsible for that. You can try to click "Save changes" in Settings > Permalinks section and see if this will help. If not, then something must be wrong with .htaccess file on server.
3. http://www.corinne-allemoz.fr/2015/01/ - Looks like you did not selected page for posts in Settings > Reading section.
2. We do not have anything like that so we really don't know how this can be done.
3. As we mentioned above, they will show you the same posts as blog page. This is how archive works with wordpress and you can't do anything with this page. Archive means that this is the same page as blog but with posts but different dates.

http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/date/2014/05 - Archives page
And if this does not work the same way for you, it meas that you did something wrong. We recommend to look at http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/documentation/#blog where everything has been explained about blog page creation.

P.S. We have the same theme version and as you can see on http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/date/2014/05 everything works fine what means the problem is on your side only.
About unnecessary elements on single portfolio page, please look at http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/2895/deleting-unnecessary-elements-single-portfolio-page-modifications where this has been explained.
Sorry but this is not possible, the category pages are generated automatically.
thanks
