Hi,

Yes , I have done that search as well and clicked thru most everything but it all seems to be coding tutorials to implement masonry.

The only Genesis theme I have found that come with masonry built in already is the Pin It theme which I am currently using, it just does not have a separate home page which I want

There is one other theme on Mojo themes but it seems to need updating by the developer.

So I am trying to solve the issue of wanting a masonry lay out to show my work using a Genesis theme with a home page.

I just emailed the developer to see if the plugin will work with regular post types and Genesis.

Aside from that, is there any pro or cons one can see to add masonry grid viewing of post thru a plugin VS coding into the theme?

[gmb]

But under the FAQ for the plugin I notice that the developer said the following:

5. Can I use my existing custom post types (portfolio)?

Yes, when you create a portfolio you should select the post type for the portfolio. The selected post type taxonomy (category, tag, etc.) can be used for filtering as well. You can use your regular blog posts or other custom post types (other portfolio, WooCommerce products, etc.).

Am I missing something?

[gmb]

Yea, those tutorials are a little beyond my scope of capacity.

I wonder if any of the sharp programmers out there might create a theme with query masonry integration 🙂

[gmb]

Thanks all for the insights!

A Genesis user friend put the fear into me, saying things like the hassles of an ssl certificate, and a host of other daily issues that take you away from the focus of selling.

It sounds like a Genesis site with a woo commerce plugin may not be such a headache for someone like me who is a creative, not focused on programming and just wanting an easy and good looking site to sell our creations.

I am curious about this as well...

[gmb]

thanks for the info, looks somewhat complex for my level of knowledge.

In your opinion, what is the wiser choice...

Keep my theme which has the pinterest like layout of masonry and build my own homepage or get a theme with the homepage I want and add the Masonry for the pinterest layout?

I found this tutorial on how to add Masonry:

Thanks!

I downloaded media rename and it seems to work for the urls but when I click on the file in the post and drag it to the desktop, it is still the original file name, not the changed one.

Am I mistaken in thinking that it is designed to also change the actual file name?

That is what I am looking for, so that I get the proper search results from google image search.

[gmb]

Oh, that site template is different now...

[gmb]

I love it!!

What theme did you use / modify?

Are you utilizing jQuery Masonry?

Great creative feel and aesthetic.

I think I just found the issue, I still had enable comments checked under Genesis in the WordPress settings.

Is it difficult to add a roll over effect then with this:

Also, what is the better approach, using the grid loop plugin or cut and pasting code?

[gmb]

I just love the look of the Mosaic look from Jetpack. (although would consider NextGen if I need to) Is it a simple enough process to set something up using Mosaic? I have no problem outputting a folder of web friendly jpegs and uploading via FTP but you lose me after that with  your IMG tags stuff. I am a bit green when it comes to this stuff 🙂

I meant my posts that are scrolled thru in grid view like this:

http://www.gregorybeylerian.com/all-works/

I was able to remove all the extra info with this code:

// remove post meta post info – basicWP.com

remove_action('genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta');

remove_action('genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info');

add_action('template_redirect', 'child_conditional_actions');
function child_conditional_actions() {
if( is_single() ) {
add_action('genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta');
add_action('genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_info');
}}

[gmb]

OK, this newbie figured it out, instead of cutting and pasting, I went thru and swapped out the numbers inside the CSS. All negative side effects removed and working as desired.

 

A walk in the park for you seasoned pros, but for a guy who never saw code before a few weeks ago, I feel like a just climbed Mount Everest 🙂

If you can imagine, I have installed S2 membership and uninstalled it twice so far, thinking thats my solution, then becoming over whelmed how to get this function plus its just so much plugin and complexity for such a simple task.

Seems like it might just be my one plugin solution if I can not find anything else.

[gmb]

Yea, the peters login is one of the ones that is suggested to be used with an other plugin called members. If I can not find a single plugin, I may have to go this path. Or as you say, get some one to code it for me.

 

FYi - here is the link if you are interested in one of the few options I have found to create a client portal:

THANKS..

So after watching a 15 minute  S2 tutorial video a few times, I have decided it is a too complicated solution with a plugin not originaly intended to do such a task (as stated by the lead developer).

So I am back in search mode.

It is hard to believe that no one has created a simple plugin to do this:

Click on a page, input your own username and password and be redirected to a new URL automatically which in my case would be a web gallery of images that I manually uploaded via ftp.
