MoochCat

Yes I did and it works except that it strips all the titles and such from the blog posts and this results in the blog page looking a holy mess.

With a custom page template I could assign those pages to that template and then blog posts and blog pages would then work.

Tom

For the time being I took them all out:

h1.entry-title, h2.entry-title, h3.entrytitle {
display: none;
color: #4682b4;
width: 100%;
}

.featurette-divider
{
display: none;
}

Seems to work for now.

Tom

For some reason this CSS fix worked, and my earlier one as well, and then just stopped working.

The CSS is being overridden by something and the .entry-header keeps populating.

I tried going back to my original CSS, no go, and even tried adding it to the Customizr custom css box.

Any thoughts?

Tom

Thanks,

That is a great suggestion.

I could not see a way to target that specific featurette divider and if I did not remove it then it inserts a blank space at the top that was not wanted. But as I don’t think it shows up much elsewhere in the theme it should be fine for now. I did it back into the second line of CSS for inclusion in those pages with an entry header, looks good.

Thanks again for your help!

Tom

PS

I am happy to pay for the plug-in even though I am not using it. In this case I am using the theme for a paying customer and I am happy to support the developer… so I bought both his theme plug-ins!

Tom

Thanks, for the moment it suffices.

There is a zoom as it shrinks but at least it does not go to the round effect, it stays a square. I shrank it way down and the zoom aspect was acceptable.

I have bigger issues and deadlines on the site so will let this one rest till down the line, I am just glad to have the little “portholes” gone!

Tom

Thanks,

I will check that as well.

I don’t use the plug-in, its deactivated and could be deleted.

I will have to figure out how to add that code to the responsive or media all aspect of it. There is not supposed to be any zoom effect at all, just a resize.

Tom

Just as a note to Nicholas, the theme developer.

The premium plug-in, FPU, still overwrites this styling. I reactivated it, saw that it put the round-div styling back and so deactivated it.

Really should be an option.

Thanks, Tom

Thanks,

It now works beautifully.

I had multiple issues beyond this with caching and some plugins that someone else added that was preventing changes from the style.css sheet taking effect, hence the duplicate CSS. A mess to clean up but after a few hours and some help from wpengine (big thanks) it was all clear.

Added your simplified CSS and it is good.

Tom

Hmmm, this is interesting.

Electricfeet, you are right that the images link but as the other fellow commented they only link in the upper left corner.

This is not a plug-in conflict, as that likely would not allow any linking at all.

It may be with the CSS I had to come up with to disable the “round div” default styling as I want the full square to appear and also I had to disable the default zoom effect.

I used code snippets from the documentation but there must be a user error on my end or a mod that needs “mod-ing”

Anyways, thanks a lot to you both. At least I now know which tree in the forest to bark at.

Tom

Hi Electric Feet,

I apologize for not leaving a link to the site, big oversight.

It is https://www.greatoralhealth.com.

Thanks for repeating the answer, it helps.

I do believe I followed that path of instruction, but the featured image being pulled does not link, only the read more button.

Tom

That would work, if the the image had a link.

I am trying to figure out how to add a link to the featured image.

This is easy of course in any media placement, just add the html. But I cannot find any place to add that to the featured image in the customizr theme.

Should be a simple fix but I haven’t found it yet.

Thanks, Tom

Thanks for the response, I do appreciate help!

I don’t have any problem getting the images to show up on the front page, I do know about that.

What I am trying to do is to make those images “linkable” so that viewers can click on the image and be taken to the relevant page.

In other themes and media management this option exists, but I can’t see how to do it here.

Nicolas says that he will include this feature in the future plugin release but in the meantime is there a simple way to do this?

If it requires a code snippet I could not find one on the TC site.

Thanks, Tom

Changing to another Genericons font for facebook social icon in Customizr

Can’t figure out what is wrong here. Trying to substitute another facebook icon from the Genericons fonts. I have all the fonts loaded and added this to the Child Style sheet:

.icon-facebook:before {
content: “\f203”;
}

Thought this should change it from the font f204 (as in theme) to another font f203 within the Genericons font set.

But it won’t work.

Any thoughts?

Note: site is being developed locally so can’t post an URL

I kept getting the same problem and tried the following and at least the backup worked;

Check off the ‘Restart the job on every main step on a running job’ option on the JOBS tab found under the BackWPup settings.

I don’t know why it works or what the underlying problem it but for me this provided a workaround that got the job done.

It took twice as long as my last backup, but it did work.

Tom
