The images that appear in the footer/featured are the Featured images of the post. I set the featured image to be a much larger image and while it is cropped down, you can see that it’s still quite pixelated. (It’s the first picture titled “Pin Up America”.

Is the only solution to crop the images down to exactly 280×280?

That definitely helped. Thank you!

Exactly, I can paste the message I keep getting via the form but I don’t want to bring its spam to the forum. I’m not really sure how the spammer is able to get through security settings, they are obviously not using a “known” email provider (one email is 664728034 @ qq.com), the topics and name are just a jumble of letters and symbols (rDpbXeZXzJ) and the message body contains links.

I checked back through my email to try and narrow down the time frame of when this started. For me, I didn’t see these spam emails before 4/23 – could it be a problem with version 3.1.2?

My contact form looks as follows now:

<p>Your Name (required)<br />
    [text* your-name akismet:author]
Your Email (required)<br />
    [email* your-email author_email]
Subject<br />
    [text your-subject]
Your Message<br />
    [textarea your-message] </p>
 [captchac captcha-57] Enter the text or numbers you see here into the box below
[captchar captcha-57]
<p>[submit "Send"]</p>

This hasn’t resolved the issue. I continue to receive the same spam messages through my contact form. The interesting thing is that it’s the same exact message each time. I have also tried blocking the specific keywords the spammer leaves via Akismet. In testing the new form, I pasted exactly what their email says into my contact form and it went through without problems.

The standard way? I’m not s`ure what you mean.

<p>Your Name (required)<br />
    [text* your-name]
Your Email (required)<br />
    [email* your-email]
Subject<br />
    [text your-subject]
Your Message<br />
    [textarea your-message] </p>
 [captchac captcha-57] Enter the text or numbers you see here into the box below
[captchar captcha-57]
<p>[submit "Send"]</p>

Then you sengwad, that did the trick. I saved a copy of it just in case I need to put it back.

Update: I was able to remove that text from my excerpts by removing the popup text in the Share & Follow menu under Sharing.

I am encountering this problem as well. I can change my excerpts back, however. Any advice as to what we can edit to remove this problem?

OP – I fixed this by changing:

#branding img {
	height: auto;
	margin-bottom: -7px;
	width:100%;
}

To

#branding img {
	height: auto;
	margin-bottom: -7px;
	width:auto;
}

In the CSS file. Yes, be sure to use a child theme and it’s easy to set up but I thought I’d post an actual answer.

Thank you, sorry for the trouble then.

I actually did do that originally. It didn’t give me any different results. I changed it back to what you see above just so I could pick up where I originally started. I should have clarified that, my apologies.

I too have followed the directions of editing the comment.php file but without any difference. My main problem now is that whenever I share a link to my site on Facebook, the description of the link is:

You may use these HTML tags and attributes: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b>
<blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code><del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <strike> <strong></strong></em></code>

I first searched the forums and found this thread. This is where I followed the directions but that hasn’t changed my Facebook problem.
Any ideas what I’m doing wrong or what else I might need to do?

Thank you!

Have you tried editing the php file itself? content-slide/content_slide.php

**Be sure to save a copy of the original file before editing it!**

Search for $content_slider_defaults-array(

you’ll see numerous settings including a ‘delay’ setting.

Also, to be sure it isn’t a conflict with your page.php code, perhaps you should try editing the slider’s php file so you can insert a short code on any page you want. The directions for doing that are here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-content-slide-added-shortcode-support?replies=7

I must be doing something wrong. I cannot get rjpalombo’s suggestion to work.
I’m pretty new at this, I don’t understand exactly where you mean “just about the end of the file somewhere” and I have no line 342. I feel like such a dork for posting that! hahah

*EDIT* Never mind, I spoke too soon, sorry about that!
I got it to work. For other users, follow the directions step by step from the first post down to what rjpalombo posted (if you want the slider to appear wherever you paste the short code)

The last bit of code: $output_string = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $output_string;

Needs to go at the very bottom of the PHP file between the last <? php } ?>

what exactly is your issue? Have you been to the support post?

You must add the slider via the PHP code in your theme’s page.php file
