Blasted,

There really isn’t a way to replace the image posts on the homepage with a NextGen gallery without modifying the “page-home.php” template and replacing the main query.

If you do so, use a Child Theme so you don’t lose any changes with future updates.

You can change the order of the posts on the Home page by navigating to Appearance > Customize > Home Section and selecting either ascending or descending.

Thanks!

Hi Karen,

The theme was designed to show off photos within an animated light box effect. You are right, it would take a bit of coding and a custom field to include a URL to link to.

You will need to modify the template file “page-home.php” and edit the main query. You can surround the entire “figure” element with your custom field link and that should do the trick.

Also, make sure to do this with a child theme so you don’t lose your changes with a future update.

Best of luck!

merlinjobst,

Grimsby does not have infinite scroll built in to it. You may find a plugin more useful if you would like to accomplish that functionality with the look of our theme.

Thanks!

13bgarli,

You are in the right place, you can control the entire hero section from within the WordPress customizer.

Navigate to Appearance > Customize > Home Hero Section and make sure to add an image. You can also add overlay text, a button and a button URL.

Please let me know if you have any more issues.

Thanks!

I’m sorry I must have misunderstood your issue originally. Yes, we have a full width template for pages which you would like no sidebar. Sorry!

Hi rloftis,

I am assuming you got your method from the Justin Tadlock article here: https://justintadlock.com/archives/2009/03/06/disable-widget-areas-without-touching-theme-templates

If so, that is the extent of my knowledge on this issue. You might have more of an audience that can help out if you post in one of the main WordPress support forums: https://www.ads-software.com/support/

Sorry!

Hi Patipetri,

The only custom image sizes that Gridsby uses are:

add_image_size( ‘gridsby-gallery-thumb’, 450 );
add_image_size( ‘gridsby-gallery-full’, 600 );

Grimsby Gallery Thumb: 450px wide and unlimited height.
Grimsby Gallery Full: 600px wide and unlimited height.

Hope that helps!

hythere,

It looks like you made some changes to the CSS of your theme.

I noticed that img.archive-image on line 962 of your style.css has been changed to 50%. This is making the images only stretch half way in the archive.

Also, the theme is set up to use the “Large” image size within your WordPress settings. I would make sure your “Large” image size is at least 800px wide in Settings > Media.

You will have to regenerate thumbnails after for this to take effect:

Thanks!

Hi rloftis,

Try adding that code without the <?php and ?>

add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’, get_stylesheet_uri(), array( ‘parent-style’ ) );

add_filter( ‘sidebars_widgets’, ‘disable_all_widgets’ );

function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) {
if ( is_home() )
$sidebars_widgets = array( false );
return $sidebars_widgets;
}

Hi Thenis,

With the simple custom css plugin, you can add the following and it should be good on mobile.

.site-title, .site-title a {

font-size: 42px;

}

Hi Jack-o’ Latern, did you try setting a page to the Home Page template then adding some posts to an image post format? If you need to follow along to a video or some documentation all the steps are found here:

stokely10,

I am unable to duplicate the issue. Perhaps try resetting your permalinks? I would also recommend disabling each plugin one at a time to see if any are causing these errors.

If anyone else has this same issue, it will be resolved in the next update once it is approved by WordPress.

@torirterhune

I spoke too soon. We are currently waiting for WordPress to approve our update. Once approved, the update will automatically display in your WP dashboard. The option will be available in that version.

Thanks!

If there is a theme update, first update your version of Gridsby.

If not, or if the problem still exists, send us a login to [email protected] and we would be happy to take a look.

Thanks!
