Thank you kindly that was it ????

????

Gotcha!

My apologies! I thought a link to the author was permitted. Thank you for clarification @jdembowski !

Success! ??

Nicely done, Anders. Appreciated the effort and the skills to get there!

Be well,

Hello @anlino !

Thank you for the reply and taking the time to test.

I’m on a Pixel 4XL running latest Android and Chrome browser.

Chrome: 80.0.3987.1499
Android: version 10

I sent 2 screenshots to your email. When I click on dropdown menu it shows it in ‘active state’ with highlighted border but that’s it.

But no worries! If it doesn’t make sense after this reply I’ll resolve the issue in the thread and see if I can track down the issue on my end. If it’s not reproducing for you then I might have a conflict due to my apps/configuration possibly.

Regardless, thank you again for your time, Anders.

Thank you @anlino !

Yes, it is an Android mobile phone as my main driver. I actually am creating all my sites right from there.

So yes, it’s Chrome on an Android with main issue.

Link to new site I just set up
https://coreskateboard.com/

I left it as is.

Apologies again for the question, I see so much of your time here with things there are answers to! I searched for Android, Chrome Mobile, etc, if there I missed.

Thank you again!

*My other sites I’m using default 2020, so how I got here ?? https://markandrewskates.com I love the simplicity of that theme, but want to support you directly so figure go with Chaplin as it seems your ‘main’ effort? Regardless, I digress, thank you again!

Yes. Specifically, most people use the internet in most of the world on older browsers, computers, and phones. They are unable to render the whole spectrum of colors, which means when you do what you’re trying to do, while it may look good and work for you, it’s not going to across the board. Not only will your website be effected on the user level, Google will rank you lower for doing things that aren’t compatible with the people’s searching browsers/device.

You ranted on multiple replies about your inability to use the color picker,I say again, that’s your issue with your mouse pointer. I can slide my picker precisely, then asked others to do the same here with me, no one had an issue picking the right color.

I’ll digress, but that you would threaten to lower your rating on a theme because you don’t like the replies from the community only shows your opinion is biased and doesn’t matter regarding this.

Basically, your ignorant on what’s going on so that’s your problem, not the theme’s. ‘Ignorance of the law is no excuse to break it’. Ignorance of UI is no reason to blame others.

@cinematic I can understand your wanting more control, but the first response answered it: the colors are limited to what will work all the time. That you can’t pick slight variations in shade is because, again, those variations are not ‘standard’ and will create UI issues across browsers/devices.

As for not being able to make an adjustment with your mouse, that sounds like you have your mouse pointer settings up too high, which has nothing to do with the slider. (There’s also a thing that every single browser has, called Zoom. Make the page bigger and the slider can fill your entire screen if you want it to.)

@enigmie The entire point of the 2020 theme is that it is a blank canvas to use the block editor/new editor with.

The editor’s purpose is to be able to create any type of site you wish. There is, as mentioned above, a multi-column block just for the 3 column you refer to.

If you are looking for a static theme with just 3 columns the 2020 theme is not for you.
