My own web host said that they have protection in place to prevent mail being send via another email address from a website, in order to reduce spam.

So while I might like to have a gmail account in there because I check it more often or whatever, unless the sender is “@abc.com” for a form hosted on abc.com, the mail will be blocked.

This was happening for the Gravity form that I had set up on another site.

Okay, never mind … I switched the notification email address to be the ones branded by the domain and the mails came through.

Will message you offline, Chris, via WPMission site, I assume.

Chris,
You are brilliant! And of course the custom template idea is a bit beyond my comfort level to create, though I did see your notes on it in another post, looked at it and said “oy!” and sighed deeply. ??

I hear you about the fact that I need to create a view for each single testimonial that I choose to place here and there on the site. And thanks for the CSS code that allows them to NOT overlap. Is the CSS code to be added to a file that is in any particular subfolder of StrongTestimonials plugin?

Where do I set/create gradient color defaults that can be set for testimonial views? I see that you have a few defaults created, am just trying to have something that matches the site colors a bit better.

So, for the kudos page where I have a slew of testimonials (and am going to ask client if she’d go for the masonry look, eliminating need for custom template), I can use your strong.view.default CSS above, or undoubtedly better yet will be to contact you for help. I thought that using the Genesis column shortcodes and putting View shortcodes into the columns would enable the page to respond to mobile devices in a way that I can plan on, since i am committed to Genesis themes.

I’d love to be able to set-and-forget the testimonials on the sites where I have your plugin installed, am hoping that the changes using View will make that more possible.

addendum, I tried adding a full-width testimonial in the 3rd row and it shows up partially behind the row above. Since this is a production site, I have to put everything back to the old shortcodes until this is figured out.

Everything has been moved to this test page https://www.carolynscarborough.com/kudotest/

The first several rows are using Views .. made one for each of the 4 testimonials displayed. Only the first one has gradient displaying, and #2-#4 are overlapping.

According to what I read here, the admin cannot specifically choose where Related products comes from. I’d love to hear if there is a workaround.

https://docs.woothemes.com/document/related-products-up-sells-and-cross-sells/

“Related products is a section on some templates that pulls other products from your store that share the same tags or categories as the current product. These products can not be specified in the admin, but can be influenced by grouping similar products in the same category or by using the same tags.”

Chris,
This is happening on other sites where I previously had your plugin installed. I guess the plugin would be the better choice. If I restore default fields, what happens to the data in the new fields I added?

Chris,
Not sure where the issue is but this isn’t resolved yet. I’ve upgraded both of these sites to 1.20.1 and both are at WordPress 4.2.5. Both are using Genesis child themes, if that makes any difference.

the screen options on one site has
order
excerpt
category
shortcode
date

the other has
excerpt
fullname
thumbnail
category
shortcode
date

the latter is obviously better because when trying to insert single testimonials, it is easier to find by name than the title or excerpt. Also this shows me where I need to get the rest of the thumbnails.

thank you,
Liz

yes, Chris, that’s exactly what I’m talking about. On each of the testimonials I have entered, I have a full name in the full name field. I have featured image thumbnails on two of the testimonials so far. I have not deleted any fields.

That would be an explanation if the theme was different but this is simple a matter of creating the new site on a test space and then transferring the content and installing the exact same theme and copying WP files pertaining to the design. I’m just going to use another player, this one is taking more time than its worth. Thanks for your help.

This is the test site, where it looks fine

On the live site, since it wasn’t viewing properly, I placed a downloadable link for the time being.
Here is the code on a separate page to show you:

I have buttons after posts, and yet Facebook share only shared link to home page and general site logo image.

brilliant! so sorry that I was so clueless, Chris.

Changed to this:
.sub-footer-right {
height: auto;
}
.tcycle .testimonial-widget {
margin-bottom: 0;
}

Subfooter right is correctly over at right now and only displays one widget, that’s great! Widget displays white space that is probably as tall as tallest widget so on short testimonials there is a lot of white space, but I understand that is the solution that needs to be in place.

Hmm, are you perhaps recommending this within a Media Query. It makes the subfooter-right layer right on top of subfooter-left when I use the above code. Will erase out of regular CSS and add to Media query 860 and under.
