Hey V,

Hope you are well

1- Have you refreshed all the site caches (Such as cache plugin, autoptimize, etc)?

2- Ah that is the ad loading. I am going to add an option in the next update to not load that on the mobile site. Currently the option only makes the logo not appear.

3- The theme does make YouTube embeds be 100% width and fully-responsive. Yours looks really strange! Can you try deleting the video code you have completely (go to Text view and delete any remaining code for it), then re-add the video naked URL to the post directly, so insert http://www.youtube.......

4- Currently the background ad takeover system is either used on global/homepage only, but I will look into that too.

Thanks again for choosing 15Zine.

Hey Cubell,

Thanks for the reply!

Yes i did refresh, and on the mobile site its not the ad thats loding its a peace of the header background image that is showing under the logo bar on mobile.

Also for some reason the youtube embed even in new posts with the 100% option doesnt work for me. And to be honest man i cant look and find more than 2000 a 3000 youtube videos and correct them. Thats to much headache please. What should i do?

Also many thanks for looking in to the clickable background option!

Best and happy regards,

V

Hey again,

It’s no problem, happy to help

I had a a deep look and figured it out! You have set a header background image, and set your logo image there. And you have a doubleclick script loading on the header ad, but it doesn’t seem this is an actual ad, are you tracking stuff with it? On mobile the ad is still visible and causing the header background to be visible.

The option in the theme isn’t to hide the header background, it’s to not load the actual logo. The solution is to set a logo image and to center it, simply set it to be centered. Then remove the header ad script and load it somewhere else (if it is tracking code), such as in the Custom Code Head or Footer boxes. And it will all work as expected.

Regarding YouTube, the theme definitely works properly and makes them responsive if they are added as naked YouTube urls. If you added videos in a previous theme and that theme added special code around it or was done via shortcodes, then that changes everything and there isn’t much the theme can do about that! If you go to an old post with a non-responsive video, edit it and see how the video is added, and copy/paste here all the code you have for it exactly as you do there to better understand it.

Hi Cubell,

Thanks for the reply again!

This is the kinda embed code i used to use for every video: (iframe option)

<iframe width=”100%” height=”385” src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/VA770wpLX-Q” frameborder=”0” allowfullscreen></iframe>

Just paste it in a new post and preview it … like this you will see what i meen. I have chanched the layout of the site many times in the past and all wp themes worked out with this embed. But the best one ever doesnt

Also i cant put the logo in the logo place and centre it becaus it only allows a centrain widht and hight on desktop and laptop i like it the way it is now big as it is. Your logo placent crops it otherwise to a certain small dimention..

Maby you should make i allow to be as big as a client wants in a future update? Some logo’s just look way better when displaid bigger then the theme allows at this point.

Also if i use the logo space for the logo it just doesnt look good on mobile i dont like it. But i do like it the way it is now on mobile.

A nother problem im facing is the titel showing half on mobile on the first post in the slider. It doesnt adapt to the size of the title and when im forced to use a big title for a post because there is no other way to describe the post it shows half and broken on the mobile theme.

This is actualy the reason why i asked for a option to disable the grid slider only on mobile devices without it disapairing on the desktop version. Im using grid style H.

Also for the adverstisment tag i put in the header. I have no option to put it somewhere else. It needs to be there. It s a tag for a sky scraper ad on top of the site that shows at certain times because it has a frequentie cap on it. There is no other place that i can put a skyscraper tag that displays a ad of about 900/ 1000 px in width.

Also for the last question. Why is it only possible to put the search box in the uper menu. Some people dont want to use the upper menu and just the lower menu.

Best regards,

V

Hey V,

I just did some indepth testing, and it turns out that YouTube has actually changed the CSS of their embeds code (the iFrame version)! Meaning they are already more responsive than they used to be, and that is causing an issue with the theme, I will fix it. However, you can already have it all working 100% perfectly by simply using the naked URL like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA770wpLX-Q

Simply place your YouTube video link into a post like that, and the WordPress will show you a video preview on your post editor area, and then on the real post page, the theme will automatically make it responsive for visitors.

And regarding the logo size, if you set a normal logo and use the center option, there are no limits! On your website you have used the background header background option to set a background image to set your logo, which has to have a height set to be able to show. I get the feeling what you want to do is set a dark background color to the header then upload a normal png logo with transparency so that it looks just like you have it now, but with no limits.

Regarding the long title on grid, you are right! I will improve that, but until then copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.cb-meta-style-4.cb-m .cb-article-meta h2, .cb-meta-style-4 .cb-article-meta h2 {  letter-spacing: 0;
    font-size:14px; }
.cb-meta-style-4 .cb-article-meta { padding: 7px;}
}

That should fix it!

I will look into adding a new ad option above the entire site (above the header area) in an upcoming update. Thanks for the suggestion!

Cubell

Hi Cubel

The code you provided totaly worked! Thanks for that! #Awesome!

Thanks for looking into the youtube code and trying to fix that! #Awesome!

But i dont understand what you mean with no limit regarding the logo. If i put a logo on like the size i have now the theme keeps scaling it down to a size that i dont want it to be.

Also can you figure out what happend to the view count on the most populair widget in the sidebar? It used to show the view count but after updating the theme that stopped for some reason.

Also for the option to put the search box of the theme in the menu (not the top menu) how can i fix it because i preferd the search box that you made custom for the theme its very nice!

Best and happy regards,

V

Hey again,

You’re welcome, you know I’m happy to help

Regarding the logo, if you upload a normal one using the logo option, and set the background of the header to be a color (not the logo image) then it should have no limits, have you tried that?

Regarding the view count, it would be visible if you have the by line option in the Theme Options panel to show them. Have you turned the views off there?

And the search option will definitely be able to be added to the main menu in an upcoming update, stay tuned

Hi Cubell,

The logo thing is not working for me stil trying to figure that out also i wanted to ask a nother question. Wil there in the future be an option to switch the mobile verson off on tablets? I would like it for tablets to just show the desktop version. Do you think that such a thing would be possible? Maby with some custom coding?

Best regards,

V

Also ik wanted to ask if its possible to increase the hight of the menu bar in the mobile version? Is there a code i can use in custum css for this and can you please provide it?

Best regards again!

V

Hey again,

The logo thing though, you haven’t set the logo as I explained, have you tried it that way? That is the only way it will work as you want it to, as background images (like you have it set) won’‘t be responsive as you want it to be by nature.

Tablets already do show the desktop version though, it’s just refined to fit nicely on tablets and everything is adjusted. A mobile version would work terribly on a tablet by nature too

You can try to increase the height with this custom css:

cb-top-menu, #cb-top-menu .cb-top-logo { line-height: 40px; height: 40px; }

And increase both values to match.

Hope this helps.

Hi Cubell

Hey again,

Cubell

Hi Cubell,

Thank you so much for you’re help! The site lookes perfect on mobile, tablet and desktop now!

I have a nother question that could be a little difficult because i tried every thing but i just cant get it to work so maby you can help me with this.

Im tring to block certaint ads showing on post usiing custom fields.

This is the ad code: Full site take-over ad. This tag is placed in the footer. (This is not adsense)

<!- /1399668/Fakka.nl_ROS_1×1 -> <script type=’text/javascript’> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-1434105353140-0’); }); </script>

And this is how im trying to block the ad from showing in specific posts:

ID, “ads”, true); if ($ads_display == “no”){ ?> <!– no ads –> <?php } else { ?> id=’div-gpt-ad-1434105353140-0 <?php } ?>

Is my attempt any good? Because i placed the above blocking code in the footer of the template and it didnt work after puting ‘Ads with value on ‘No’ inside the post custom field were i dont want the ad to show.

To be honest i think i need to put it in the blogstyle.h.php but i don’t know were to put it and i dont know if it wil work. Can you please help me with this?

Would be much appreciated!

Kind regards,

V

Oh … is see its not allowed to put html here .. is there any other way i can get in contact with you for this question please?

Hey Drypoint,

Can you share the URL of that post to take a look?

And the featured image in that site is simply a post with the full-screen featured image style option. Check the documentation to see how to change the featured image style in a post, it’s really easy

Hey again,

To make them normal widths, try copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

.cb-entry-content .aligncenter { width: auto; }

I hope this helps.

Cubell
