I would like to add CSS to the page linked above that has worked well on Part 1 of my website (which you can see by clicking the link in the site menu).

The CSS below worked well for gallery images in Part 1.

figure img { width: 100% !important; height: auto !important; border-radius: 0 !important; object-fit: unset !important;}

How can I make this work on Part 3 also? DO I need to tweak the above code?

I have a google adsense ad added after first image that is not showing up. even when I try simple text, it still shows nothing.

Hi,

I’m hoping someone can help me out with a niggling issue with my site when rendered on mobile devices.

On a desktop the menu bar is visible with the contents of the drop-downs closed until clicked on.

On a mobile device the moment you click on the ‘hamburger’ menu all of the menus & sub-menus along with all the individual items on them (and there are a lot!) making it almost impossible to find anything!

I’m using the ‘Expound’ theme & the ‘Top level’ primary menu

Any help would really be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hi! i would like to centre all page and post images across entire blog using CSS. Some of my older images are smaller and sit on the left side of the blog in an untidy fashion. I managed to do it with the below code BUT it affects other things too. For exmample, tt also undesirably centres the icons on the comments. How do I pick out the images from the gallery only?

.site-content img {

max-width: 100%; /*some screens look weird above certain amount*/
display: block; /*centre… */
margin: auto;/*…image*/
}

I would like my photos to appear as large as possible on a smartphone display. How do I use the CSS ‘Editor’ to achieve this? Can I reduce or remove the black margin and the white margin?

Many thanks.

I have used expound on wordpress.com and am now migrating to .org.

I am very happy with how I can set featured posts to always appear at the top of my .com site.
However the same functionality does not appear to on .org.
The ‘featured’ posts on .org merely seem to tbe the latest ones

Is that correct?
How can I create featured posts please?

Background is obliterating everything in mobile view https://cardtherapy.co.uk/

First post in a while but don’t think it behaved like this previously. Any ideas how to fix?

Thanks

Hi!
Normally the email subscription widget appears on the side in my Expound theme. However for the mobile view and narrow screens the user has to scroll down to the bottom. How can I display the email subscription box at the top of the page (but not the entire sidebar). Is there some code I could post in the CSS editor? I’m new to www.ads-software.com but have basic css understanding.

Using the Expound theme and my website is nicholasgault.com

Thanks in advance.

I exported/imported a blog from blogger to wordpress.com. I chose Expound theme. I cannot find the comments from import. I see them in the xml export but they are not importing (or the theme is not displaying?)

I see someone else had this issue but the resolution was not noted. I checked the dashboard for settings/reading/etc. Comments should be enables. What am I missing?

Does something need to be modified in the template?

Hi,

Before the text <div id=”header” onclick=”location.href=’https://www.tjitskeypma.nl/&#8217;;” style=”cursor: pointer;”> helped to make the header clickable.

I think since the WP/theme updates, this text doesn’t work anymore. How can I make the header clickable?

Best,
Eva

Hello –

I too have an issue with my mobile dropdown menu not being clickable. Another user posted that removal of the footer call resolved this for her. Unfortunately, my client would like to maintain the footer; so I didn’t test this workaround. Any other resolution? The site is here: https://www.atlantascifiexpo.com

I’m trying to set up a landing page that focused on email signups. Using Expound 2.0.1. Couple of questions:

1. Is there a way to hide the header banner on this page only?

2. Is there a way to delete or hide the page name that appears under the banner?

3. Is there a way to make text larger than the Header1 option?

And, should I upgrade to a newer version? I’m not too techie (I’m a writer), so easy is best.

Here’s the page. I don’t want it linked to any other pages.

I’m new to WP and coding but on a steep learning curve. I’m using the Expound theme. I was wanting to change the gallery text and image borders but can’t find the css code.

The stylesheet is this:

*/

@import url('css/reset.css');
@import url('css/expound.css?v=20140129');

There’s a rtl.css sheet as well with coding but it doesn’t seem to relate to general appearance. I did a CSS interrogation to help identify the relevant code which came up with:

<style type='text/css'>
                    #gallery-2 {
                    margin: auto;
                    }
                    #gallery-2 .gallery-item {
                    float: left;
                    margin-top: 10px;
                    text-align: center;
                    width: 33%;
                    }
                    #gallery-2 img {
                    border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
                    }
                    #gallery-2 .gallery-caption {
                    margin-left: 0;
                    }
                    </style>
                    <!-- see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php -->

After identifying “border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;” I then ran a “find” though the rtl.css code (in the absence of anywhere else to look) and could find anything matching. After reading up on templat hierarchy I decided in the absence of relevant code it was defaulting to WP.

Having already set up a Child theme in anticipation of being able to make some changes I input the following code string into the child theme style.css sheet:

img {
	border: 2px solid #000000;
}

When that didn’t work I figured maybe I’d set up the child theme incorrectly so I turned instead the Jetpack Custom CSS editor and tried the same code string there. Still nothing.

FYI…I can’t provide a link to the site as it is still in development and not live. I’m self-hosting not with WP.
Please help – this is driving me insane!

With using the Featured Content on the Posts page, the sidebar gets pushed down and the page looks garbled. I have no need for a “featured” anything, so I am looking for a way to disable this feature completely, or at least reduce its width so the sidebar remains the same on all pages.

I have looked at the author’s notes on GitHub, but that addresses “sticky posts”, which I have checked that box for any post either.

I am using a child theme, so I figured I could copy the featured-content file, delete all code that is in it, and then paste the new file into my child theme… this would be a last resort.

Thanks!

Hi there, first i want to say that i love the expound theme for its featured post section, so thank you for all your work.

I’m posting here because i wanted to filter the home page articles by their categories. To do this i wanted to add a select tag in the “site-navigation” nav with all the existing category (already did this) and then filter the post to be seen based on user selection.

I’m progressing step by step and I didn’t assigned the selected option to a variable yet, but i was trying to filter the posts by modifying the “expound_get_featured_posts()” function.
I tried adding a new argument to the array passed down to the wp_query, like this:

....
if ( empty( $sticky ) ) {
		return new WP_Query( array(
			'posts_per_page' => $count,
                        'cat=3',
			'ignore_sticky_posts' => true,
		) );
	}
...

i made the change in both the array (with and without sticky posts), but the home page always displays all my posts without filtering them by the category with ID = 3.

Any clues?

p.s.: im working on local right now so i can’t link the site

Hi y’all

I’m super new to this whole thing, but have these last days used this forum extensively. So far, so good.

I do have a couple of issues though, that I have so far not resolved.

First problem:
I’d like to have full control of my front page. The posts should be limited to one sticky post (A generic welcome) at the top, and four featured posts, shown with their featured images. Pretty much as is the case right now: dsftm.org
BUT I’d like to have no more posts after the four posts stacked next to each other. Is it possible to do that without affecting the number of posts showed on other pages, such as post category pages?

Second problem:
I really like the layout on the front page, with the posts w/ featured images stacked next to each other. However, I do think the featured image, showing up to the left of posts on all other pages looks terrible, due to the way I have organized the posts. Any way to alter the rendering of posts on category pages, so they don’t show the featured image in this way? (example: https://www.dsftm.org/da/category/farmakologi/farmk_symp/)

Thanks!

Hi, I have been really struggling to get a footer to work and have messed up my website/blog. I now know that footers are not supported by expound theme, so after editing the footer php I have put it back to what I think is the original code. But for some reason my wp google maps plugin won’t show on my website/blog. Please can you help me. I am not competent in code, so no doubt I have done some thing wrong. HELP!!!

I’m having problems on the individual pages I have created, there’s a huge space between the first paragraph, which lines up with the float-right attribute to the img, but then the following paragraphs all appear below the img, instead of to the left of it.

This appears on posts as well as individual pages that I have added to the menu.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi!
I like the Expound theme. I use it on https://sprachkurslinden.wordpress.com/ At the frontpage the featured images are shown. But inside the post (single view) the featured image is not visible https://sprachkurslinden.wordpress.com/2015/10/03/nachrichtenangebot-fuer-fluechtlinge/ .

How to make the featured images visible inside the post(s)?

On the posts list page, when them mouse goes over a post section, it lightens slightly. I dug around a bit and i suppose it has something to do with the .less file and the lighten function (if we can call it that).

My question is how can I disable that using my child theme?

Hei,

Iv’e tried searching for this and found very similar posts and answers, tried it all without luck. So hope someone can help.

Im trying to change the blue background color on the menu tabs and text within it at my website – https://www.rkgruppen.dk
Right now just the “Forside”, but got the same problem on my other website.

Cant seem to find the rigth place to change it in the editor.

Here are the translation files, I’ll keep you posted with any modifications, please tell me if there’s another way to add them too
thank you very much.

Hi,

I recently switched from the Suits to Expound theme on my blog. Comments made on previous posts are gone and the comments box is disabled for new posts.

All the boxes are checked in the Settings/Discussion menu and Allow Comments box is enabled for each each post.

I’ve checked for a solution in this forum but no such luck. I don’t believe it has to with the theme conversion but I would like for readers to leave a comment.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Guys,
I have a page here: https://ilase.co.uk/blog/iLase_wp/

I have two rows each containing 3 columns, which in turn, each contains an image which links to another page. all looks well on the computer and even the iPad, but does not display well on my iPhone. The header logo also looks off on the phone. I’m sure I’m missing something regarding a widget of some sort but I am baffled. Any help would be massively appreciated

I am trying to put into the header links the the social media accounts i have set up for the club.

When i go to the editor part of the theme it shows the following:

<?php if ($papercuts_options_db[‘papercuts_header_facebook_link’] != ”){ ?>
“><img src=”<?php echo esc_url(get_template_directory_uri()); ?>/images/icon-facebook.png” alt=”Facebook” />
<?php } ?>

But i don’t fully understand where i should be editing and how i should be editing it to get it to work.

I have tried and when i upload and preview the site, it says errors on lines 41/42.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gary

For the header, I wanted to use an image that has both text & image as a logo/header but when I upload it via the theme itself it crops on mobiles. I’ve read in the forums that there’s no way around this in Expound except to add a custom logo via CSS, so I’ve tried doing that but can’t get it to work. The image doesn’t show up.

This is the code I’m using, in the Custom CSS Manager plugin, based on Konstantin’s answer to previous askers of this question:

.site-title a {
color: transparent;
display: block;
background: url(‘https://www.spunkymisfitgirl.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Spunkycropped.jpg&#8217;) 0 0 no-repeat;
width: 691px;
height: 154px;
text-indent: -9999px;
}

The width & height are the image size; is that correct? Are there limitations on what size it can be?

My site is here: https://www.spunkymisfitgirl.com/

I mainly just want it to look right on mobiles as well as on a computer so I am open to other suggestions as to how to make that work.

I’m not a programmer so please explain in detail. Thank you!

It’s a while since I WordPressed and a bit confused by changed link colours that seem to be from an inline style…all my links have gone red (#F00) – https://cardtherapy.co.uk/

Seems to come from inline:794 / inline:542 but can’t figure out which file!

Do I just need to modify in my child theme??

Hi,

I am having a problem right below the top article where the posts run vertically across the page. For some reason the post categories are writing over the top of the featured graphic for the post.

Has anyone else had this issue and how did you fix it?

Thanks!

Hi all –

I’d like to remove the hover feature on the Social Menu – I’d like the social media icons to just appear white always so they are easier to see.

Tried tinkering in the CSS and couldn’t figure it out, though I’m sure it’s an easy switch. Help, please?

Thank you in advance!

I’d like to make a link within the second post on the frontpage of this site
