Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Moving wordpress from one server to anotherIf you end up wanting a less painful way to accomplish moving the site at this stage (or at least in the future), I can suggest you nuke the production site and perform a fresh, manual FTP installation of WordPress and then use the free Duplicator plugin to replace the newly installed production site with a clone of your dev site.
Check this article and go to FTP method: https://www.wpbeginner.com/how-to-install-wordpress/
Then install Duplicator on your dev site and follow this tutorial: https://lifeinthegrid.com/support/knowledgebase.php?article=10
If you’re repeatedly doing local-to-live dev work, then consider checking out DesktopServer by ServerPress in the future.

article h4 span { color: #000; /* Change hex code to desired color */ }
Remember to clear/purge any caching systems you may have installed and refresh the browser.

In reply to: [raindrops] Child theme plug inHello cscan,
Child themes or customization/code snippet plugins are invaluable if you plan on customizing the look or functionality of your website through code (such as changing colors and font sizes with CSS or tweaking how your website works with PHP code snippets).
If you were to make these changes in any of your theme’s files, they would be erased following the next update.
If you don’t plan on doing any of that, then you don’t necessarily need to use a child theme or customization plugin.
Should you at some point want to add a bit of custom CSS/PHP/JavaScript to modify your site, then you can check out the following plugins, which will allow you to add your code outside of your theme’s files:
- Simple Custom CSS (CSS)
- Code Snippets (PHP)
- Theme Customizations Master (CSS, PHP, JavaScript) (requires you to know how to manually install a plugin and is better suited for experienced users)
Hope that helps!

In reply to: How to change post title font size in ValentiAdjoined classes aren’t sufficiently supported in older Internet Explorer versions (6 and earlier). So if most of your visitors happen to be using that, then you’ll have to consider making a minor tweak.
Alternatively, you can try using this:
.cb-slider-b h2 { font-size: 30px !important; }

In reply to: How to change post title font size in ValentiHello!
You can try this in your custom CSS:
.cb-module-header h2 { font-size: 2.1em; /* increase or decrease as needed */ }
Hopefully that should do the trick.
EDIT: I noticed that the CSS selector you tried using actually targets the title that appears over images within the navigation drop-down menus. Is that what you actually wanted to change?

In reply to: Can't change my backgroundYou’re very welcome! Glad we got it sorted out. ??
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Can't change my backgroundInteresting.
Assuming you have the Simple Custom CSS plugin installed, here are some options you can try:
-
1.) If you’re using a caching plugin, purge/clear the cache, refresh the page and check again
2.) If you’re viewing the page in question while logged into your site, try refreshing the browser
3.) If either of the above don’t work, try this in Simple Custom CSS:.odd { background-color: #000 !important; }
EDIT: If trying step 3, remember to repeat steps 1 and 2 just in case.

In reply to: Can't change my backgroundOne more thing.
If the theme provider releases an update to your theme, you will lose your CSS changes following the update as all the theme files will be replaced.
So I suggest you install a plugin like Simple Custom CSS. This will give you a separate style.css stylesheet to work with.
Then just go to Appearance > Custom CSS and add this code and you’re good to go:
.odd {
background-color: #000;
}Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Can't change my backgroundYou can ignore the ‘border-bottom’ and ‘padding’ properties.
The rgba stands for (r)ed (g)reen (b)lue (a)lpha. Basically, the first three determine the color, while the alpha controls the transparency of the color.
To get pure black using the RGBa model, use this:
.odd { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0); }
With that said, you could also just replace the rgba with the equivalent hex code as mrtom414 suggested above.
Change this:
.odd { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0); /* RGBa model */ }
To this:
.odd { background-color: #000; /* HEX model */ }
In full, the .odd rule set will look like this:
.odd { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0); border-bottom: 0 none; padding: 20px 20px 40px; }
Or this:
.odd { background-color: #000; border-bottom: 0 none; padding: 20px 20px 40px; }
Pick whichever one you prefer and apply the changes in your theme’s style.css file.

In reply to: [Customizr] Removing header space changing page width?I have no experience using the Customizr theme, so I can’t tell you how flexible it is with respect to replacing the slider with a fixed image (and how to do so).
As for the width, I’ve been unable to adjust it without having to commit a bunch of “CSS hacking.” So, unless you can adjust the width via the WordPress Customizer, this doesn’t seem to be a straightforward fix.
Sorry I couldn’t be of further help with the theme.
