PorterParticipant
Are you setting it to use a custom page, and selecting which page that is? If so, does that page have any content? Is the page content showing, but simply with the format of front-page.php?
PorterParticipantYou should be able to use something like this in your functions.php file:
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'wpsites_after_header', 20); function wpsites_after_header() { echo'This text has been added using the genesis_after_header_hook'; }
I know the title is added using that hook, so I assume setting a later priority (20) should make whatever you add happen after the title, though I'm not 100% on that. Try adding that, and if the text shows up where you want it, simply change the echo line of the above code (everything in the function) to output your icon instead.
PorterParticipantThe first step is to register the widget areas, which you can do by following this tutorial:
The second step would be supplying the proper CSS / classes when you actually display the widget area, specifically here in the above tutorial's code:
'before' => '<div class="after-post widget-area">', 'after' => '</div>',
That's basically wrapping your new widget area in a CSS class, so "after-post widget-area" can be any class / classes you need to provide to get the widget area displaying where you need it.
As for changing the bottom widget area to have three columns rather than 4, that's likely pertaining the CSS classes provided for that widget area, which you can find by inspecting it in your browser (right click > inspect element), and then look that up in style.css to see what's provided. If you need to change the classes, you can likely see the registration of these widget areas in functions.php, done in the same fashion you're about to with your new ones, so simply swap out the classes in the above code area to what you would need to change it from four to three.
PorterParticipantWhat exactly is your goal? From what I'm seeing, it looks like you attempted to make a fixed footer, but stopped half way through a tutorial haha. See this:
footer.site-footer { position: fixed; }
That line is making your footer stay on the page at a fixed position, and I'm not sure why it's there, or what you're trying to do.
PorterParticipantCan you supply a mockup image that shows what you're trying to do? I believe I can help, I'm just not 100% sure what the end goal is. Nothing fancy, just a quick sketch / edit is plenty.
November 24, 2015 at 9:17 am in reply to: Presales question – how is the support / documentation?? #171916PorterParticipantThe documentation for all hooks filters, etc, is very good, and easy to follow.
Ticketing is 1 to 1 support, and responses are fairly prompt. What information they'll give you via support, I'm unsure of (only used it once, and wasn't asking questions directly pertaining to Genesis).
Between the support, documentation, and these forums, I don't think you'll have any trouble. Genesis is quite popular, and the amount of information and documentation on the web alone is huge, while this forum is active enough as is.
PorterParticipantNo problem, literally the same exact issue.
In style.css, locate:
.site-inner, .wrap { float: none; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 1200px; }
Change it to:
.site-inner, .wrap { float: none; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 100%; }
If you want to only have this effect on the home page (not full screen everywhere else, for whatever reason), add something like:
.home .site-inner, .wrap { float: none; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 100%; }
November 23, 2015 at 9:57 pm in reply to: Remove Date on Post Byline in Home Page Widget / Church Theme #171890PorterParticipantNovember 23, 2015 at 9:45 pm in reply to: Remove Date on Post Byline in Home Page Widget / Church Theme #171886PorterParticipantAs you can see, the copy and pasting is turning certain characters into different text. You have no ', you have ' in place all over, which is breaking the code. What are you using to view this forum, and do you see the code in a grey box, with code formatting? Essentially your copy / paste is breaking it, where it doesn't for me, so something is going wrong there, as those characters shouldn't be converted.
November 23, 2015 at 9:10 pm in reply to: Remove Date on Post Byline in Home Page Widget / Church Theme #171883PorterParticipantWhere are you adding that code? I've just tested it on a live site, and it works perfectly, definitely no syntax error. Copy this exact code, and add it to your theme or child theme's function.php file, after the opening <?php tag.
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info','porter_remove_home_post_info'); function porter_remove_home_post_info() { if (is_home() || is_front_page()) { $post_info = 'By [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]'; return $post_info; } }
PorterParticipantYour css seems to be minified, but I imagine the source file is still style.css. Either way, search for this in whichever file you're using:
body { background: #e1dfd4 url(/wp-content/themes/going-green-pro/images/pattern-light.png); color: #7a7768; font-family: 'Lato',sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 1.625; }
Change it to:
body { background: #e1dfd4 url(/wp-content/themes/going-green-pro/images/pattern-light.png); color: #7a7768; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.625; }
The arial font doesn't need single quotes around it, as it's a default font, but just in case we keep in sans-serif as a fallback. The font-weight is what makes it darker, and 600 is darker than 300 - feel free to keep arial at 300 to see how you like it, then try 600 to see if that font being darker works for you.
Like I said, these changes should go in style.css - the inspector shows a modified file, but I don't know of any themes not using style.css, so it should go there, and that file should be reuploaded to your server. If you're editing css by another means (directly through the editor, plugin, etc), I'd advice against not doing that, and you should make it a practice to edit the stylesheet, and then upload it.
PorterParticipantOpen style.css, and scroll to the very bottom where you have your media queries. Add the following to whichever size(s) you need:
.site-container .content h1 { font-size: 24px; }
That will contain the h1 titles and make them fit on mobile, if not, lower the font size until it fits.
In the same area(s), add:
.content .page-title .entry-title { font-size: 26px; }
You'll have to play with the font sizes you use, and which media queries have which values, but that'll get you where you need to be. If those changes don't show up for whatever reason, add !important after each line, and they should.
Additionally, you can add the following selector to make these changes happen ONLY on this page:
.page-id-879
So it would look like this:
.page-id-879 .page-title .entry-title { font-size: 26px; }
Let me know if you have any question!
November 23, 2015 at 2:37 pm in reply to: Custom CSS for shortcode recent post carousel font #171862PorterParticipantIs that not using the Shortcodes Ultimate plugin already? 😛
Either way, you can add the following to your style.css file:
.su-carousel .su-carousel-slide-title { font-size: 25px !important; }
Change the font size of 25px to whatever you'd like, 28 and 32 seemed to look good to me.
PorterParticipantWell text should always be crisp, due to how text is rendered. An image, is locked to a resolution, which can distort depending on the space provided, dpi, etc.
Zoom could definitely be the culprit, though it's hard to say.
PorterParticipantAre the excerpts being used on the front page widgets created manually, or grabbed automatically?
PorterParticipantI'd request a screen shot from the client, or at least get the resolution of the screen they're using (or device they're using). Maybe from there you can see what exactly is going on.
PorterParticipantIt looks fine to me on my 1920x1080 monitor. If the tad bit of blurriness is indeed there, does it appear here as well? http://www.krizzydesigns-test.com/test1/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/cropped-AFP-720.png
Either way, the source image looks identical to the on page image, so it's an issue with the uploaded image if so, not the site code.
For higher resolution screens, you can use a logo-2x.jpg image and specify when to use that, I believe the Genesis Sample theme does this by default, so you could check there for implementation.
PorterParticipantYeah, doesn't look like there's a simple way to decouple that, and really, as long as you're writing specific rules that apply only in certain circumstances, there's no need. Glad it worked out for you!
PorterParticipantI have no idea why both are showing, especially if there's an option in the theme settings to do one or the other - it sounds like a theme bug / potential conflict (though that's an odd one if so).
A quick fix, and it's a tad dirty, is to make these changes in style.css:
Find:
#header { margin: 0 auto; max-width: 960px; padding-bottom: 20px; background: transparent !important; overflow: hidden; position: relative; }
Add height: 120px to the end of it:
#header { margin: 0 auto; max-width: 960px; padding-bottom: 20px; background: transparent !important; overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 120px; }
Then find:
#title-area { padding: 48px 0 0; }
Change it to:
#title-area { padding: 48px 0 0; display: none; }
That'll remove the title and description from the page, and then add space for the image to show properly. You may need to tweak some values in the media queries (bottom of style.css) to make that work on mobile, not sure. I'd really try to figure out why you can't just turn that off though, as that's quite broken / odd. In the meantime, if you're on a tight schedule, this may suffice.
PorterParticipantWhat exactly is wrong with it?
The only issue that I see, which you'll laugh at if this is it, is that your menu item text color is the same as your background. If you hover the mouse over the top, you'll see your menu items, they're there. The issue is this:
.genesis-nav-menu a { color: #333; text-decoration: none; display: block; padding: 30px 24px; }
Change #333 to something that'll show up on that background you have now.
