• I customized my site to my needed requirements and on my desktop and tablet it renders perfectly but when viewed from my iphone the featured image circles totally hide and squish for lack of a better description the images.

    Here’s my site link: https://www.nickcannonarchives.com

    Does anyone know if for Google rankings if a site tagline is necessary? I would include it on the backend but when I do it automatically displays in my “logo” which I don’t want.

  • @cherie: See one workaround here.

    @nikeo: The image display is is a big problem on iPhones, where just pixels are at a premium with just 320 to spare. The blog-post layout looks really squashed up because the theme tries to keep the text side by side with the image and there simply isn’t room on an iPhone.

    This summarises the current problems (Cherie’s problem above is explained by problems 2 and 3 below.

    Problem 1. The slide captions don’t work on < 480px screens. See effect here. Solution here.

    Problem 2. There is extra padding of 20px in the body at < 767px. You can see the effect of this in the first image above and (more evident) here. The solution to remove it is here, which results in a much better image—see before and after.

    Problem 3. Removing the extra padding, using the solution to problem 2, gets rid of some of the cropping and “squishing” that Cherie describes above. However, it doesn’t resolve the fundamental problem that on the iPhone / Blackberry / many Motorolas, there simply isn’t enough room to show the circle next to the blog post extract in portrait mode (<480).

    Additionally, the circle is now so small that the image viewhole /peekhole is so small that it is meaningless. For example, I have an image of a chair in one of my posts; by the time it’s reduced to fit side-by side with text, all you can see are the legs of the chair—not very useful. On the Customizr demo site, the pencils image, which is lovely on the desktop is no longer meaningful once reduced to iPhone circle-size.

    Would it be possible—in media < 480px—to flow the circles so that they appear below the post? Or alternatively—better—below the heading but before the post content?

    If it’s not possible to do this for the theme as a whole, could you (or anyone) tell me how to modify the code to achieve this on my sites?

    Thanks, as ever, for all your hard word and responsiveness—pun intended ??

    Hi @electricfeet, I appreciate when you give me some additional work like that!
    ??
    More seriously, your analysis of the 3 problems is absolutely right.
    This must be fixed in the next release.

    As you are now a Customizr expert would you be interested to become a beta tester of the next release before I upload it to the repository?
    Looking forward for your answer.
    Best regards,
    Nicolas
    PS : You can contact me in private if you feel like it

    Sure, happy to beta test—though my site’s pretty basic, so I may not catch much. I think there are probably a few here who would be happy to do so if you put out a general call for volunteers (who could check a “happy to beta test” box on your contact form, for example).

    I tried the workaround and the featured images still are not displaying properly in portrait. Is it at all possible using CSS to not have them show at all in that mode but just for the iphone?

    Nikeo has fixed this in 3.0.10. Should be out soon.
