Hello! I have a couple of questions on where I can edit the following:
1. Below the title (single post) is a line of text with author, date – comments, likes and views. Where can I edit or delete these?
2. I’m trying to install a line of code for the Po.st social media buttons. It worked perfectly on an old version of Sprout, but I can’t get it to show in the latest version. This needs to go between the title and body of a single post, but it doesn’t show
3. If there is a browser plugin or tool that you can recommend that shows me exactly the template or CSS for a specific element please let me know, thanks!
Thank you!
Hi 
1. If you have a knowledge in coding, You can edit this file ‘themes\sprout\templates\post-meta-large.php’.
2. The latest version has no major change with structure. Please recheck these files ‘themes\sprout\single_classic.php’ and ‘themes\sprout\single_classic_no_featured_image.php’.
3. You can use DevTool that already available in chrome browser https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/
Thanks for your quick response!
1. I removed the ‘likes’ from the single posts, but the icon still shows on the homepage. Where can I remove this?
2. When the page loads it always shows another font first – is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!
1. You can use a custom CSS. Please copy a custom css from the below
.vw-post-likes-count { display: none !important; }
Then navigate to ‘Theme Options > Custom CSS/JS’ and paste into ‘Custom CSS’ option.
2. The order of loading fonts was managed by browser, Can’t change them directly.
Thanks! I’d also like to keep the top navigation bar the same color – regardless of article viewed. Currently, the tabs (if they’re categories) that the article is filed in turn white when viewed. I’d like to keep them always a medium grey – how would I do this? Thanks
There are 2 layouts for article, Regular and with Full thumbnail. But for category page, It will be Regular only.
Hello, I’m not talking about layouts. I’d like to know how I can change the top navigation bar so all links remain the same color when clicked. Currently the color changes to the background color of the page.
Hi 
Could you please send me a url of the page? i will check it for better solution.
Can I send it privately? I think this thread is public

Hello again, I have another couple of questions:
- Homepage – how can I remove the date and comments from the articles on the homepage?
- Do you have a comment widget separate from the Recent and Popular ones? I like the design of it. (I don’t like the WordPress comment widget – their widget links out to the commenters’ sites instead of to the article)
Thanks!
Also need to know how to remove the TAGS from the bottom of the post, thanks.
Hi there 
1. Please copy a custom css from the below
.home .vw-post-date,
.home .vw-post-comment-count {
display: none !important;
}
Then navigate to ‘Theme Options > Custom CSS/JS’ and paste into ‘Custom CSS’ option.
2. No.
3. Please use the below css
.vw-tag-links { display: none !important; }
Perfect, thank you!
Could you please also give me the CSS to remove the author, date and comments from the
- archive pages - search result pages - category pages.
I’m creating a reference resource and don’t need author, date and comments there. Thanks so much for your help!
Please use this css
.vw-post-date,
.vw-post-author,
.vw-post-comment-count {
display: none !important;
}
Perfect thanks!
I have one more question for you:
Is there a way to show full posts on the homepage? When I go into WP Settings > Reading and change the “For each article in a feed, show – Full Text” – it will not do it.
Thanks.
About pagination:
WHen I scroll down on homepage to the pagination and click “2” for example, and then click a post on that page 2, and then use the browser button to go back, it goes back to page 1 and not page 2. Is there a workaround for that? Thanks
Hi,
1. This layout is not available.
2. The Ajax pagination does not support back button. The purpose of ajax pagination is for quick navigation on the page.
Hello,
About 2. – that’s an issue, because once a visitor is on page two and they want to go back, it always goes back to page 1 and they have to scroll down again to get to page 2. So it greatly slows down navigation.
The other problem is that Google can’t index anything past page 1. There is no separate URL for page 2.
I have a question about the media files:
When I add a picture and select “link to Media File” – it links to the Attachment Page instead. And there is no way to get to the actual media file URL. Where can I change this? I need to link to the media file for sharing purposes, thanks.
Hi 
You can use numeric pagination by set this option “Theme Options > Blog/Archive > Pagination Style” to “Numeric Pagination”. Please also set the Pagination option of each section in Simple Page Composer to the same value.
For link to media file, This feature was handled by wordpress not by theme. Please try activate the wordpress default theme (such as Twenty-Seven theme) and try again to make sure the problem was not from theme.
Hello!
- How do I get to Simple Page Composer?
- Also, we never used the default theme. There was another theme previously that showed the actual image file by itself. It stopped showing once we installed Sprout.
Thanks for your help!
Hi,
1. You can follow instruction at topic ‘02. Homepage Setup’ on this page http://envirra.com/themes/sprout/document/
2. The image may saved into special field of the old theme which can’t display on Sprout. You need to re-assign the image at the Featured Image box. More information here http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-add-featured-image-or-post-thumbnails-in-wordpress/
Hello envirra,
Each time I upload an image, I am seeing as many as 12 different sizes being generated and saved. Is this something involving the theme? If so, how do I reduce the number of different versions to a minimum? https://drive.google.com/file/d/18e0VN-KjaM2lIHRdsEXgQ4FUiTSwrFSu/view?usp=sharingThanks
Hi 
This is a nature of wordpress that generated all image size which used by theme. Deleting these image does not recommended.

Hi, today I upgraded Woo Commerce to the latest version (3.2.1, WP version 4.8.2) I received this message: “Votre thème (Sprout – Child) comporte des copies obsolètes de certains modèles de WooCommerce. Ces fichiers peuvent nécessiter une mise à jour pour assurer une compatibilité avec la version actuelle de WooCommerce. Vous pouvez voir les fichiers concernés depuis la page de statut système. En cas de doute, vérifiez avec l’auteur du thème.” I think some templates of Sprout theme are outdated, so I contact you to know how can I solve the problem. Thank you for your attention.

Is there a way to display and posts’ categories at the top of title in the widget “post-small-left-thumbnail.php”?
Hi 
This option is not available.
The homepage (phgcoes-ga.org) uses the VW Simple Page Composer Template. The section where you make the edits keeps cycling with “Loading…” It’s been cycling for about two hours. I tried duplicating the page and creating a new one and still continues to cycle for the editor. What is going on with the VW Simple Page Composer Template? I cannot make edits.
Hi, I’m back 
I just replied to your email.
Please send me an admin account and login url by using email. I will have a look into it.
Hi Envirra,

For grid 2 column, I don’t see any problem on your home page. Could you please explain about the problem?

Structured data errors and warning: I am having one error and some warning with the structured data. Please, could you help me to solve them? ( https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool?url=https://hablandofitness.com/desayuno-para-ganar-masa-muscular/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fhablandofitness.com%2Fdesayuno-para-ganar-masa-muscular%2F )
Hi 
The error is not caused from theme’s code http://i.imgur.com/aVXkX7A.png Please try disable all plugins (except theme plugins) and check again.
The warning is just a warning, not a serious thing that required to be fixed.
Anyway the warning about image will be improved in next update.
Hi, the Sprout Social Counter widget isn’t properly reflecting my Facebook fans or Youtube followers, even though I entered the page IDs properly. Is there a fix? Thanks!

Hi 
Could you please send me a url of your site and facebook page?
The Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/Spokeo/ and the blog URL is blog.spokeo.com, though your theme is only installed on a private server now, so I don’t think you can access it from your side. I can email the Facebook page ID and a screenshot of it plugged in the module somewhere if that helps. Thanks!
Hi 
I’ve tried your facebook id 403291406389310 and no problem was found. Please re-input the number into social widget.
Every since I uploaded to the latest version of Sprout my page composer blocks have not been aligning correctly. There are gaps when I set up the page to masonry grid mode and block grid mode. Please advise how to fix.
Hi 
Please clear all wordpress cache and check again.
Hi, I’ve tried that already… and I also tried to reinstall the theme… The composer blocks are still staggered…
OK, Please send me an admin account, login url and url of the page by using contact form on my profile page. I will have a look into it.
Hi
