Yes, that worked Brad. Thank you very much!

[Bill]

sure thing Brad! I am not ready for it quite yet, but when I am I will reach out to you to see if you can and are willing to adapt this to use assigned pages or CPT's instead of tags, with ability to edit the button titles. (probably need to be a plugin) I like how the original example has the title within the image which encourages the click to get to the buttons.

Nice work Brad!

[Bill]

Heya Brad!
I just saw this on your site! Looks like this is a really good start to what I was asking about!

[Bill]

Thanks Brad! Looks like a little JS as well. Not sure I have the time to take on.

Maybe I can hire someone to make a genesis plugin that accomplishes the goal as in the original link.... with url fields built in to use for the buttons destination links within the image

Thanks!

Bill

[Bill]

Yep, upon a quick test, that seems to have worked Brad!

I will test a bit further. Thanks so much!!!
Bill

[Bill]

You're a genius Gary.

That's it. Thank you so much!

[Bill]

yep Victor,
I am embarrassed to say that did it. I couldn't imagine what was going on there. THank you for your assistance!

[Bill]

Victor,
That was exactly what I needed! Thank you so much for taking the time to do that.
Very much appreciated!!!

Hi Andrea! yes, I know the data is coming from the plugin....I am just curious if there is a creative way to somehow target these IDX pages somehow to force a full width just on these idx pages. I didn't think there was, I do know how to do WP conditional statements, but there is really nothing to target. The plugin uses ajax to populate the listings on a page it creates itself. (no dedicated wordpress page)

I DO have the option to dedicate a wordpress page for the idx plugin to use instead, which would solve the problem as I can easily target a page in genesis to force full width for that page....but the MAJOR issue I see in doing that is that the H1 tag will always be the name of that one page I created, and not the property address of the listings. If I don't create my own dedicated page for the idx plugin to use, the plugin gets it right and uses the property listing address as the H1 tag....which is how it should be for seo reasons. But if I had created a blank page called PROPERTIES for the idx plugin to use to display the listings on, every single property listing page will be served up on that same PROPERTIES page I created, and will have the same H1 tag called, say PROPERTIES. I know that is NOT good for seo.

So, on one hand, if I don't create a dedicated page in wordpress to display the properties on, the plugin created its own and uses the property address as the H1 tag...all is good...EXCEPT it takes on content-sidebar because that is what Genesis is set to by default... but if I really want full width pages for listings, I CAN create the page manually to be used by the plugin to display idx listings, and I can easily set that as full width, but then the H1 tag will always be the name of that one page I created....regardless what listing is displayed....bad for seo

...so that is my problem. I was just wondering if there was any crazy way to target a url string and force a full width layout based on the url string starting with websitename.com/properties/*****

[Bill]

Thanks, ...but I have no idea how to do that.
I discussed this with the plugin developer, but they are not genesis people... I was hoping genesis has some magic filter 😉 that would allow for forcing full width on a url string. I wouldn’t know how to do what you are talking about.

[Bill]

they are not on my site

[Bill]

Thank you.
Yes, I understand, but what I meant is that there is a wordpress page created already, so its east to target with conditional statements. THe property lsitings do not have pages created in wordpress, so conditonal targeting is challenging. There is not even a page template to target.

Here is the search result grid where homes are listed. This is an actual wordpress page I have set to show the search results for this particular small town. I have many of these pages in wordpress, with the shortcode used by the IDX plugin to pull in the appropriate properties for that particular page's area.

This however, is one example listing from that grid. There is no existing wordpress page for this. The plugin created this page. If you notice every listing has the same beginning url to the the word "properties". Iw ant to see if there is a filter or statement available to target a url structure, and serve up a full width page in genesis for that url structure.

[Bill]

Hi Brad... that didn't work either....but, I was able to accomplish it by going about it a different way (not sure why it took me so long to realize this method)....

I eliminated the second array for the page templates in the functions file, and then just removed the widget in the actual page template itself. ....Works like a champ.

Thank you for your assistance!!!

[Bill]

Hi Brad... that didn't work either. whether or not I have the .php at the end for each template name makes no different.

Let me ask this then....if I eliminate the page template array and leave it as this....

// Add after entry widget to posts and pages
add_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'mcq_after_entry' );
function mcq_after_entry() {

 if ( is_singular( array ('page','cpt1','cpt2') ) )
        genesis_widget_area( 'content-bottom', array(
            'before' => '<div class="content-bottom widget-area">',
            'after'  => '</div>',
        ) );
	} 

is there a different function I can use to eliminate this sidebar on the two different page templates?

[Bill]

I created two genesis page templates to be able to display property listings generated from a real estate idx plugin. I created the templates, then assigned the templates in the idx plugin admin area.

one template is for listing results like this:

the other template is for details for individual property listings like this:

Here is a link to the actual template files
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kgste23wj4oiy6b/AACUW81wm5k2xOzHAbn_f94va?dl=0

in my initial inquiry above, I changed the name of the cpt's and the page templates for simplicity....but in my testing I do change them to the appropriate CPT names and appropriate template names.

FYI: The sidebar (found and assigned in these template files) is not the widget area I am talking about in my inquiry. Those are assigned to switch out the primary sidebar for these template pages. MY inquiry is about eliminating a content-bottom widget area for these template pages.

[Bill]

Thank you for the reply Brad. I looked at the conditionals for the page template...I thought that was right when I wanted to include two different page templates to exclude. What do you see wrong with it?

Also, I thought the || was for the term "OR", not "IN ADDITION TO". I need it to be treated like "IN ADDITION TO". Am I wrong in thinking that?

[Bill]

Hi Victor,
Thanks for your response. I did try to do that, but there was no response. 🙁

[Bill]

Thanks Carasom. The site-header z index of 1 solved it. It's not just Envira that was the issue, other elements were an issue as well, so it had to do more with the theme css rather than envira.
We are good. Love this forum!! thanks again everyone

[Bill]

thanks guys!!!! That did it. I tried a bunch, but didn't think about the site-header.

[Bill]

Hi Brad,
Thanks for the reply. I don't want to no index the blog posts themselves for seo reasons, but Is there a way to no index just the genesis featured posts amplified widget entries in the after-content widget area?
