    Hi,

    I have three questions:

    is it possible to display only the book images in grid view and not the links below? Similar to the option in the widget. The image shows the title already and also links to the single book page anyway.

    Some themes align the retailer logos quite nicely in pairs. The theme I want to use displays them more like a list, which looks odd. Is there a way around that?

    I would like to display the images of other books by the author on single book pages in the additional information field, but the look is rather random. Sometimes the content appears underneath the box with the publisher etc. sometimes the text appears beneath the box, but the image appears further down the page leaving a big gap. Can this be fixed

    Thank you.
    K.

    For your first 2 questions you’d have to write custom css. There is not a way within the plugin settings to do what you want. The title in the grid has the class mbdb_grid_title and the retailer logos are wrapped in a div with a class mbdb_grid_title.

    Keep in mind that the title in the cover image may not be readable, especially if the user is accessing the site via a mobile device.

    For your third one, can you show me a couple of examples? It could be the setting you’re using on the images or something the plugin is doing or something else, but I can’t be sure until I can look at the page and see the code.

    Thank you for your reply. I’ll have to find out how to do that. Could you let me know in which file I can find mbdb_grid_title, please? Btw is the above meant to say mbdb_grid_title for the retailer logos too?

    I’ve checked the book covers on a smartphone and they look great. ??

    Here are a couple of examples for the additional info issue.

    Example 2

    Oops, sorry. Copy and paste error. That should be mbm-book-links1 and that’s actually an id not a class.

    You don’t put anything into the code. It would get added to the stylesheet of your theme or if your admin dashboard has a place for custom css. You’d have to know css to do it. If you don’t know css, you’d have to find/hire a designer to do it for you.

    To your 3rd question:
    In Example 2 that is happening because you have set your image to align to the left. If you turn that off, I think it will revert back to what’s happening in Example 1.

    The reason it’s happening in Example 1 is because the Additional Info display right after the summary, excerpt, etc. and you don’t have any of the information set. So it’s just showing up after the last data you entered. If you want it at the bottom of the page, you’ll have to again add custom css. The class is mbm-book-additional-info and the style you want is clear: both; (if you are not familiar with css, a designer should understand what that means and be able to do it for you.)

    Hi,
    sorry for the delay, but I had to take a break due to a very bad flu.

    No, I won’t put anything in the code. I’m using a child theme. I just wanted to see the code in context. ??

    All of the images looked fine in my previous theme. I’ve removed them for now. They are displayed too closely to the cover image.

    It would be great if you could include a button for displaying/hiding the title in grid view though (just like in the widget).

    I’ve figured out why the retailer logos were displayed in stacks rather than in couples like in my previous theme. I was using a full page to display single book pages, so there was enough space. Dooh! ??

    Sorry to hear you’ve been ill.

    All of the images looked fine in my previous theme. I’ve removed them for now. They are displayed too closely to the cover image.

    I’m not sure what images you are referring to here.

    Do you still have questions, other than the request to be able to turn off grid titles?
