layout?

  • Hey There, great looking theme, having a little trouble though and sorry if this is basic stuff, but are you able to tell me how to achieve the following?

    1- The mouse over border, overlay and title effect that is used in the example site.
    2- How to make the text align in a left column as per the example site.

    Here’s my draft…

    Any help much appreciated!

    Also, possibly another silly question, but am I able to customise fonts for this theme?

    Not silly at all! The simplest way to add a new font is via a Google Fonts plugin. You can then apply the new font to specific elements using custom CSS. If you need help with the CSS, you can ask in the forum here, specifying which element(s) you’d like to change, on which page/post.

    Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten every time the theme is updated.

    Since you’re already using Jetpack, an easy way to add custom CSS is to activate the Custom CSS module. You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.

    I’ll answer your other questions separately.

    1- The mouse over border, overlay and title effect that is used in the example site.

    I see your portfolio page here:

    https://jonathansander.com/portfolio/

    But the rollover effects aren’t working.

    I think this may be because the errors at the top of the page are preventing the page from rendering correctly.

    You see this:

    Warning: array_unique() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/jonathan/public_html/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 757

Warning: join(): Invalid arguments passed in /home/jonathan/public_html/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 546
class="">

    Those errors are preventing the body tag from being output correctly, which you can see if you view the browser source:

    <body <br />

    Did you make any changes to the theme files directly? (That’s not something that should ever be done.) If so, try reinstalling a fresh copy of the theme via FTP.

    If you didn’t touch the theme files, try temporarily deactivating all your plugins. Does the problem persist? If the problem is gone, reactivate your plugins one-by-one, look at the site in between each reactivation, to find the conflict.

    2- How to make the text align in a left column as per the example site.

    This should happen automatically when you add media like images to a single portfolio project. Try adding an image within the body of your portfolio post, in addition to the featured image.

    Thankyou so much for your help Kathryn, HUGE help. I have another annoying question though, when I edit the actual project page, My images and text appear to the right and above each other…

    https://jonathansander.com/portfolio/digital/

    Are you able to tell me how I am able to get the text to sit left and the image right like this?

    I fear this is a terribly simple one but I can’t figure it out!

    Thank you so much in advance, your support for this theme is fantastic.

    Cheers

    Try uploading a much larger version of the image – the one you’ve added is only 300×258, which isn’t large enough to trigger the side-by-side layout. Try an image that’s at least 924px wide.

    Thank you so much in advance, your support for this theme is fantastic.

    It’s my pleasure. ??
