Home page on Pilot Fish

A found it, when i had a clear moment:

To remove the the home_banner.jpg and its features delete row 14 till 20 from home.php

Hi Danni and all,

I’m using your great theme since 1 week now and am pleasantly surprised by the high level of customization ??

I have one question, which has already been asked above, about how to delete date and authors in articles and pages. Danni, I’ve tried your advice by removing the <?php pilotfish_entry_meta(); ?> in the page.php file on line 56 but unfortunately it didn’t change anything: date, author and category are still visible.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi swaani,

you also need to remove the <?php pilotfish_entry_meta(); ?> in all the files that has a prefix “content-“, like “content-standard.php”, “content-link.php”

Hi Danni,
It works perfectly now, thanks a lot! ??

Hi Danni,

Love the site, its exactly what I was looking for! I am a complete newbie and have been sat here for the past two hours trying to change the tree image.

I have been to home.php a few times and cannot even find images to edit. I have also tried to change it through the appearance upload, no luck.

I have been through all the code in editor and cannot find “home_banner.jpg” to edit.

Apologies that this is such a basic question, I did try the ways you have suggested for others, what am I doing wrong?

Thank you in advance. J

Hi Jacki,

You need a FTP to change the home_banner image, or through your hosting account. Try filezilla ??

Hi Danni,

Great theme!

I’m trying to figure out how to change the color of the bars under the selected main nav menu items (and the thin bars between menu items.) I’m new to Word Press, so I don’t know where to look for that…

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

@ bonzocat:
To modify the thin bars:
In the “editor” section, under “Appearance” menu, you can go to the CSS style sheet line 509:
#access
menu a {
border-left: 2 px solid #000000 —> right here (line 511) you can change the border size of the thin bar(in my case 2 px) and you can also change the color by insering your color code #

I highly reccomend you to use Firebug (a free Firefox plugin very useful) if you want to make some tests on the theme before doing it for real on the CSS editor.

To modify the color of the bars under the menu items you have to change the “menu-bg.png” which is located in /web/wp-content/themes/pilot-fish/images. It’s a background image that you can modify and you need a FTP like Filezilla to find it and change it.

Hope it will help you ??

@ Danni: I’m trying to modify the white background by adding frames with a colored background. I guess it takes place in the CSS editor but I don’t really know how to proceed and how the background is customisable. Do you have any tips?

Thanks a lot!

Thank you, swaani!

@swaani, what do you mean by “adding frames with a colored background”?

Hi, Danni.
Sorry for the long abscence! But things got wild at work and had a huge demand on events (which is what I work on). Afterwards I left the job to keep my own business on eents with games and technology.

Again, to attend a huge and crescent demand of work.
I thank God for that! ??

Have you been able to adjust the template code, concerning the sudden dissapearence of the “think/design/develop” pictures when we change the settings in the sidebar-home.php in the wp editor?

I am now going back to finish the settings and all the customization! ?? New clients coming!

Best regards

Hi Danni,

I am having a problem where if I have children pages then I can no longer click on the parent page text to open the page. If you click above the text then you can still access the page but I think this will make it difficult to navigate for the users.

If there a solution? I have tried in both chrome, firefox and opera and I get the same result.

@ Danni: I just solved my problem about customization of the background. I wanted to put a different background in the body and the header but with some CSS lines everything works now ??

How do I remove the parallax scrolling effect on the home page? I would like the home_banner.jpg (photo) to display in full and not scroll. This is my first time to create a WordPress website, so simple instructions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

hi, i would like to remove scrolling effect too and just have a fixed image, can you please let me know how i can do this?

many thanks

ps lovely theme:)
