My client’s site, cherylholt.com was working fine on Firefox until the latest update Firefox pushed through. Now the custom header isn’t showing up on Firefox only. Any suggestions?
Hi,
First of all great looking site, nice job!
I do see the issue in firefox but having a hard time pinpointing the exact problem. When removing the negative margin though it seems to work – https://cl.ly/qbJm – can you try removing it to test?
If you can share the code used for the site header I can test locally and get a better idea of what’s going on – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/share-page-content-troubleshooting/
Thanks!
- AJ
Thanks much!
Here is the gisthub code: gist:3a9f8a19593eb4242684a4c5733db049
Can you paste the full url please? There is no way for me to access the gist without the full URL or knowing your username, thanks!
Sorry about that! https://gist.github.com/uhdayna/fe27cd8ebf7963cb8b2712582e19b238
Hi,
I tried the code and I didn’t see any issue but I also just re-tested your site and it looks good for me now – https://cl.ly/qcpf. Did you make any changes?
- AJ
Yes. Just one small one. I had a blank row (where I used to have something else) and just deleted that. It works on all platforms now. Odd.
Ah that would make sense actually as there is a known bug in Firefox with empty elements and using flex items with min-height values, I just didn’t notice that when I was looking.
Glad it’s working now!
Thanks!
Hello WPExplorer and thank you for this theme.
I have an issue with the single post settings. In appearance (Blog—> Single) when I disable all the single layout elements except the content, a white space appears on the bottom of the page above the footer. This issue does not happen on the pages settings (when I enable only the content). I updated my theme from the v4.2 to the latest 4.6.1 but the issue is still there.
Thank you
Hi,
There some default padding added in the theme for posts, which may be what you are seeing can you share an example URL to double check?
By the way if you want a total custom blog post layout you can also use this function – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGYuBjqkj8Q
- AJ
A dynamic template is not an option for my implementation. Is there a custom CSS to disable the default padding?
Sure the CSS would be this:
body.single-post #primary { padding-bottom: 0; }
- AJ
Hi AJ,
Unfortunately this doesn’t work. You can find an example URL: http://steps.org.gr/en/simple-post-test/
You’ll need to share the actual URL so I can inspect the code to see where this space is coming from.
I edit the post 
Thanks!
Oh yes there is another margin you need to worry about
Add this custom CSS as well:
body .single-blog-content { margin: 0; }
- AJ
Thanks AJ. Works perfectly now!
Hello! I see that my site takes a bit of a hit in loading because it seems the theme loads fontawesome and so does the revslider plugin. Can you help me so that it loads only once? I saw a post from some time ago addressing this but was unable to recreate the solution. Thank you!
Hi,
Currently there isn’t a good way to remove the Slider Revolution version of the script, I’m waiting to hear back to them to see if they can update the plugin accordingly. But the script is so small it shouldn’t increase page load by any more then like 0.01 seconds. If you are having some slowness on the site and want some advice let me know what server/plan your site is hosted on and send over the URL so I can see and provide some good suggestions.
- AJ
Thanks AJ for the quick reply! No need to take a look, it’s not a huge problem, I just have several duplicate font calls that I’d like to eliminate.
Let me hit them up again and see if this can be sorted out, I am planning a 4.6.2 update shortly and I hope to add the fix for this.
- AJ
I was looking closer and unfortunately it seems Slider Revolution names their icons differently then the default FontAwesome so their CSS is highly modified and if it’s removed the icons won’t be visible 
So it doesn’t seem they can update things without breaking current customer sites. If you want to prevent the double script from loading you could also just use an SVG alternative to the icon.
ps: This site is awesome for icons for any site – http://www.streamlineicons.com/
You’re the best! Thank you AJ for the detailed reply and follow up information.
Hi
I have a question. How can I change the text color in the footer? I can’t find the option. http://bit.ly/2JeMCEc
Best regards
Hi,
If you want to use theme options you can change it under Appearance > Customize > Footer Widgets : https://cl.ly/qb89
- AJ
Oh, sorry and thank you. Sometimes I’m a little blind. 
Hello AJ,
I just wonder wether there’s an easy way (hook ?) to show draft posts (and only them) in a Post Type Archive module – presently queried by categories and sort.
It would help make a test page to see how they look like altogether and order them.
(I haven’t found in the WP Codex custom queries, nor by googling)
Michel
... I’ve also tried by creating a specific category and excluding it in the Customizer but it still showed in the PTA module
Hi,
You can do this with an advanced query like such: https://cl.ly/qZzr
Thank you AJ.
Can it paginate if I add : &posts_per_page=12&paged=$paged
$paged is a variable and you can’t define/enter variables. Pagination is actually enabled by default for advanced queries but you can add &paged=true if you want. If you set paged to a number what it will do is actually load that page for example if you entered &paged=2 it will load page 2.
- AJ
Thank you AJ.
It’s a minor problem for me but the pagination doesn’t show with this custom query, either in PTA module or Post Types Grid module :
&cat=235&post_status=draft&posts_per_page=8&paged=true&orderby=menu_order&order=asc
In case it helps seeing the page : https://culture-officer.fr/drafts
(PT grid above has 13 eligible draft posts of which 8 displayed as per the query)
Michel
Hi Michel,
Oh sorry I meant to say you need to add “pagination=true” not “paged=true” – my bad!
Paged is used to define which page should be the default shown when you first load the site.
- AJ
Thank you indeed, AJ, it works fine 
And it’s a really useful capability to see drafts in PT Grid at writing stage (I plan to write about 2 dozen short ones in advance)
Hi There
Your template looks great, and I have some questions before buying it, sorry I come from Joomla and now changing to Wordpress because Woocommerce and plugins, so some questions may seem silly.
Does support multilanguaje? Need to buid 3 language site
Does support all Woocommerce plugins, like Iconic Product configurator, DHL, Credit card payment, etc, to build a full Corporate and shop site?
Can I switch the color of headers, etc, to custom customer color? Thanks for your help
Jose
Hi Jose,
1. Yes Total is Multi-language ready. The most common plugins for that are WPML and Polylang both which are supported by the theme.
2. Total should support all 3rd party plugins since it doesn’t make any hard customizations to WooCommerce. If you have any issues with a 3rd party plugin let me know and I can test it to see what’s going on.
3. Yes, there are options included for altering your colors via the Customizer – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/customizing-theme-design/
The most important thing though if you plan on using Multilanguage and WooCommerce is you need a GOOD server. This is a big mistake people make is choosing a budget hosting solution like godaddy, bluehost, hostgator…etc. If you do, your site will be extremely slow and potentially time out with errors. Highly recommend you use a good managed WordPress hosting solution to better support these powerful plugins such as Flywheel, WPEngine, Kinsta…etc.
- AJ
Thank you for your prompt reply. I am actually gonna purchase another license for a completely different website, I just love how Total handles everything in a smooth and professional way.
Answering your 3rd question, I use Contact Form 7, it doesn’t, unfortunately, upload it automatically, I think I need to add a line of code in the message section but I don’t know what exactly, I have tried and failed lol
I would also love if you can help find a way to style the message I receive.
I have got new issues here and I’m hoping to be able to fix everything before this Tuesday coz there is a deadline to launch the final website.
1. I would like to style both the contact form that shows on the website and the one I receive in my email. Your instructions worked like charm for the ones have <label> tags but not for the other ones and when I add <label> tag for all the others, it gives me an error so I am super confused and honestly I don’t wanna play with the CSS file coz I am afraid I will mess it up and it gets worse.
2. I will have two forms, one is an application form and another contact form in separate pages; however, I would like to have the contact form shows in a lightbox as an easy way. Is that possible? I tried adding a lightbox but couldn’t add a contact form to it instead of images and videos. I would appreciate it so much if you could record a video of your screen doing it. Thanks a lot
3. Most of my sections are on the page so no need to go another page, so I just needed local IDs and you showed how to do that last time and it worked perfectly, but now I have an issue which is when you are on another page and you want to get to one of these local IDs on another page, it doesn’t go coz it requires a link, do you know the right way to do that?
4. Few issues with Media I guess, or perhaps an update. on the mobile version, I see pictures are a little bit squeezed but can’t show you an example now but will attach the link later when I fix the previous issues first.
5. This question regards the new licsence I wanna buy, I have got a project to design a website for Chinese company and they want to host on Aliyun which is also Chinese and you know some websites don’t load in China. So, I would like to know if Total uses any Plugins or anything with Google because Google is completely blocked there.
Hi there,
1. If you can share the live URL with the form and let me know what you want to do exactly I can help with the Custom CSS to style your form better. You should never mess with any files, if you ever want to style something differently always override with your own CSS.
For the receiving email you could try an addon like this – https://wordpress.org/plugins/cf7-html-email-template-extension/ – to allow further customization of the form received.
2. Using the built-in lightbox for forms isn’t ideal, for a form you would want a popup functionality not necessarily what you would call lightbox as these are coded primarily for media.
Total doesn’t have a built-in popup method for Contact Form 7, the easiest way is either using a 3rd party plugin or simply adding the code to your child theme. It wouldn’t be very hard to insert your form to your page via a theme hook – http://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/action-hooks/ – and wrap it in an element which you can hide via CSS and position fixed on the screen like a popup. Then add a little javascript to the site to target a link that will trigger the popup.
3. As long as the local scroll is setup correctly you can always link directly to the sections, example: http://totaltheme.wpengine.com/freelancer/#home-projects
So when building your main menu if you are linking to local sections be sure to include the full URL in your link.
4. There hasn’t been any reports on images being “squeezed”, are you by any chance using JetPack? There are some known bugs with the JetPack CDN (photon) that could cause that.
5. Total doesn’t use any 3rd party scripts but it does support Google Fonts so what you’ll want to do is simply disable the Google fonts in the Theme Panel.
But also Total has a filter you can used name “wpex_get_google_fonts_url” so you can actually set the Google fonts to use a mirror that works in China like this: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/mirror-google-fonts-china/
- AJ
Hi AJ the popup functionality sounds hard and will take time to do it, will probably add it to my upcoming projects.
Here is my site: www.cyicd-hr.com
The lightbox function now doesn’t work in the gallery section and it used work perfecty before (really strange)
The application form you will notice that some fonts are in bold and others with radio buttons, their labels are not.
In the contact, us page once you click on the message text area that white box moves a bit up
On the homepage, under available vacancies ,you can see pictures squeeze when in mobile view
and one more thing, how can I disable opening links in new pages every time I click on anything at all. I have searched everywhere and couldn’t find it
Hi,
1. I am seeing a javascript error on the page causing the lightbox to not work – https://cl.ly/qeT4 – have you made any manual tweaks to any theme files or installed any new plugins recently that could have caused this? Or did you recently update the theme? (maybe I messed something up, but it is still working for me when testing locally – https://cl.ly/qeV9).
2. For the form some of your labels have the font-weight bold added to the code manually – https://cl.ly/qei1 – and some don’t have anything not even the label tag – https://cl.ly/qem8 – you just have to consistently add your tags in the form html.
3. I’m not seeing an issue with “In the contact, us page once you click on the message text area that white box moves a bit up” – this is what I see: https://cl.ly/qeZI
Do you see the issue on a specific browser?
4. The photos under Vacancies look good to me. I checked on the computer using an emulator but also on my iPhone and iPad. This is a screenshot from crossbrowsertesting as well – https://cl.ly/qeqU - which is what I see. What are you seeing? And on what mobile device?
5. None of the links on your site are opening on a new tab/window when I test – are you sure you don’t have any settings on your browser that are doing that?
- AJ
Thanks, AJ.
I didn’t make any manual tweaks, I have though installed few plugins and updated Wordpress and Total theme. I have another lightbox on the same page for a video and it works perfectly, please if you could help me fix this I would really appreciate it, I have already deleted and created it all over again but still same issue T.T.
P.S. I just made sure that it happened right after the update
Hi,
Thank you for your patience (I had to leave town and just got back – it’s not typical for me to do this).
To be honest I don’t see any lightbox issue, can you let me know exactly where and what it is. I read through our previous conversation but I don’t see the problem. Thank you!
- AJ
Hi AJ,
How’s it going? I was wondering about how to serve scaled images.
I ran this page in gtmetrix https://www.skindevotee.com/tutorials/ and looked at the waterfall and saw that the images are really large that are being loaded.
I have the blog grid module set to blog_entry for images, but gtmetrix shows me images are still quite large.
Have I misunderstood the report or the blog grid module settings?
I was also not able to find the settings in customizer to set the blog entry sizes for the homepage that shows blog posts in the grid format.
When you get a moment, any help would be awesome AJ.
Thank you Joanna
Hi Joanna,
I’m doing well, thank you 
All the image sizes are defined under Theme Panel > Image Sizes as per the docs – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/define-your-image-sizes/
Cropping your images can help sine their dimensions are a bit big, but they aren’t huge. The images are png’s though. Converting your images to jpgs and optimizing them can really reduce their size without having to sacrifice quality. If you are on a mac I personally use an app named Snap Converter for converting images and another one named ImageOptim for optimizing images prior to upload.
- AJ
Thanks AJ.
Silly question then.
So based on the doc, if I entered a size of 150px for example for the Blog Entry in the Theme Panel > Image Sizes, then I select Portfolio Grid module and set the Media size to Blog_entry, it will set it to 150px?
Or are these two separate ways of setting image sizes?
Thanks
Joanna
Hi Joanna,
You are completely correct (no need to enter px in the image sizes though just enter 150). So if you enter 150 for the width and leave the height empty it will resize to 150 width. if you enter 150 for the width and 150 for the height it will become a 150×150 square.
If cropping isn’t working make sure this setting is enabled – https://cl.ly/qbfn – if disabled the theme won’t auto resize images, instead images are resized when uploaded only (default WordPress behavior).
- AJ
Thank you AJ.
In the image slider element, I cannot see a way to change the font.
Is it possible to do so, and is it also possible to add an icon (fontawesome or other, not sure what’s available directly in the theme yet). I use image captions as text right now.
Thank you.
Hi,
There aren’t built-in settings to tweak the font family for the image slider caption but it’s very easy with some custom CSS. Example:
body .wpex-slider-caption { font-family: Georgia; }
Not sure what you mean about adding an icon in the caption. Do you have an example of what you want to do exactly? Thanks!
- Aj
Thanks AJ. No example to show you but if I can do the font change through CSS, I can probably manager the icon too. I’ll give that a try.
Just let me know how else I can assist.
Two new questions. 1. There used to be social media icons before upgrading but they disapperaed. I want users to share my site on THEIR social media, How do I retrieve these icons? I am NOT interested in THEM sharing My social media which seems to be what the current widgets do. Help please. 2. I tried to put my photostream URL into the FLickr widget, but nothing happened, just the title “Flickr Stream” appeared. Thank you
Hi,
1. The social sharing still exists in the theme have you made sure it’s enabled in the Customizer. For example for blog posts you need to enable it under Appearance > Customize > Blog > Post in the builder blocks – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/blog-single-post-builder/
There were some changes to the social sharing and how it works in the backend (the code) but the front-end should still look the same. Except, that social sharing was removed from archive/entries (as it’s not needed there) and the overall clicking to share now uses optimized javascript via it’s own file. Plus the vertical share design changed a little – http://totaltheme.wpengine.com/webdevelopers/why-you-need-a-website-for-your-business/
2. Only enter your Flickr ID – https://www.webpagefx.com/tools/idgettr/
- AJ
Thank you.
1. I got the Flickr ID, put it in the widget in the footer column, but all it shows is a title: Flickr Feed, but no pictures. Anything I’m missing? It is set to show 8 pictures.
2. How do I centrally align the text in the footer widgets?
Hi,
1. I tested with the Envato flickr account and it’s working for me still – https://cl.ly/qafI – what is your Flickr username so I can check?
2. There isn’t a built-in option since a lot of widgets use li items so they are left aligned but you can use a little CSS to apply a text alignment like such:
#footer-widgets { text-align: center; }
http://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/making-css-edits/
- AJ
1. Username: Suriala 2. so just to copy this and put in [ ] in the “more CSS”? I’m a total novice at CSS.
Hi,
I can’t find anything for Suriala, is your account private perhaps?
Yes just copy and paste this CSS under Theme Panel > Custom CSS.
- AJ
Not private. Had 13+K visits. Do I need the [ ]?
Is this the correct page? https://www.flickr.com/photos/oritadar/
When I test it’s working for me: https://cl.ly/qaVR
- AJ
Yes, miraculously now it works.Thank you. Before I do the CSS, again do I need to put it in [ ] or just copy paste the entire line you sent me as is? Sorry for being a nag but I’m totally new to this.
I put this */ at the end but it gave me a message there’s an error and if I go on it could break the site and something about an indent. ? So I erased it before updating.
Hi,
No the CSS the should be posted exactly as I shared it like this:
#footer-widgets { text-align: center; }
Example: https://cl.ly/qa0p
- AJ
Dear AJ, is there a possibility to have a ‘SOLD OUT’ caption in woocommerce instead of the regular price? Let me explain better: I would like to show my sold items in the woocommerce products gallery.
I wish you a wonderful Easter, thank you.
Bob
Hi Bob,
Thank you for the wishes 
Changing the price to display a caption is possible by hooking into WooCommerce filters. But I don’t understand what you mean by “I would like to show my sold items in the woocommerce products gallery”. Can you explain a bit better? Do you want to have a new page that displays only the sold out products?
- AJ
Hi AJ, thank you very much for your kind reply. I just would like to have sold items visible into my products gallery. I don’t want to create another page, just would like to have ‘sold’ instead of the price. I hope I explained myself better…thanks again! Bob
Hi Bob,
I added a little snippet for you, have a look here: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/woo-out-of-stock-price/
- AJ
Hi AJ,
Right I’ve found a problem that cannot be rectified (but I’ll probably be proved wrong).
Not the posts, not the pages (which I have a plugin for), but the Custom Post Type categories.
At present, any category description is squashed up under the page title. If it were a normal blog post, there is an option to change the position of this using the Blog>> Archives and Entries>> Category position selector.
Is there not a way this selector can be added to the custom post types ‘archives and entries’ section too?
Hey there,
Just like everything else in Total, there is a filter you can use to alter the position via your child theme. Example:
add_filter( 'wpex_has_term_description_above_loop', function( $bool ) {
if ( is_tax( 'YOUR_CUSTOM_TAXONOMY' ) ) {
return false;
}
return $bool;
} );
More on the is_tax function: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_tax
I hope you are having a nice weekend,
- AJ
Hallucinating on medicines actually, feeling really bad.
Snippet goes in functions.php yes?
Oh man, sorry to hear that. I hope you get better soon!
Yes it goes in the functions.php and you need to alter YOUR_CUSTOM_TAXONOMY for the taxonomy (ies) you are targeting.
- AJ
Thanks AJ.
So to confirm, the snippets should be
add_filter( ‘wpex_has_term_description_above_loop’, function( $bool ) { if ( is_tax( ‘portfolio’ ) ) { return false; } return $bool; } );
and
add_filter( ‘wpex_has_term_description_above_loop’, function( $bool ) { if ( is_tax( ‘staff’ ) ) { return false; } return $bool; } );
Yes?
Then I’m gomg back to bed.
Hi AJ,
Feeling much better now after a sleep.
Tried entering the above snippet into functions.php and there’s no change in where the category could be chosen to appear. In fact there’s not even an option to choose where the category lies, as in the blog posts.
Are you sure we’re discussing the same thing here? Whereby an option appears in the CPT ‘portfolio’ to change the category position to ‘above loop’ for eg?
Yes we are talking about the same thing but your example snippet is incorrect because “portfolio” is not a “taxonomy” (category) it’s a post type. So for example if targeting the portfolio and staff categories you would use this:
add_filter( 'wpex_has_term_description_above_loop', function( $bool ) {
if ( is_tax( array( 'portfolio_category', 'portfolio_tag', 'staff_category', 'staff_tag' ) ) ) {
return false;
}
return $bool;
} );
Or if you want to target ALL taxonomies on your site just do this:
add_filter( 'wpex_has_term_description_above_loop', '__return_true' );
- AJ
Thanks AJ – was just going to say that there’s still no selector box on the CPTs (using the all taxonomies code) but it turns out that the category text is now all above the loop anyway.
I can have an early night now and get onto things in the morning!
Correct, the code doesn’t add an option it actually changes the position 
You had this comment 8 months ago. I am trying to do the same thing, but using vimeo. Is that possible?
“Hi there! I using the html module to insert a youtube video with some custom parameters in the url. I need to mute this iframe,”
Hi,
You can mute Vimeo videos by adding a background=1 parameter as mentioned in their docs, but it only works if you have a premium account – https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/115011183028-Embedding-background-videos
- AJ
Hi there.
LOVE your theme, by the way. I have probably a dozen licenses… 
Question—how/where can I change your theme mobile breakpoints? They are currently 768, 960, 1281… I would like to change the 960 breakpoint to 1025. (Of course I can set my own media queries, but I want my media queries to match your breakpoints.)
Thanks!
Hi,
Great, I’m glad you love the theme and thank you for all the purchases!
It’s not possible to change the breakpoints because they are set in the responsive CSS file (without manually editing this file which isn’t ideal).
What are you trying to change exactly? So I can help with the custom CSS for that or suggest the best method possible.
- AJ
Thank you!
Frank
Hi Frank,
It looks good to me on all the pages, did you manage to fix the issue? By the way instead of using the Footer builder you can also just go to Theme Panel > Custom actions and insert the HTML for an image into the “wpex_hook_footer_before” section. Either way works well, but just so you know 
- AJ
Thanks AJ! I eventually found that I had to add a “minimum height” of 600px to close the gap. Even if I set “content position” to “bottom,” I still had the white gap. I have a lot of learning before I will get to the level of knowing how to work with classes and such. I’m just an old-schooled dog from WYSIWYG days… if it wasn’t for you folks creating such easy drag-n-drop WP themes, I’d be no where! I think I’ve bought 4 or 5 themes from you… my ONLY go-to theme! Thanks a mil!
That’s awesome, I’m glad to hear that. I’ve seen you around for a while and you’ve always been a great customer so I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoy the rest of yourSunday! Happy Easter.
- AJ
Hi, I find out that Footer Builder can cause content missing, how should I fix?
Hi,
Content shouldn’t be missing. Anything you add to the template that you set as the footer builder should display, can you share an example live URL with the problem so I can inspect the code?
- AJ
I have a simple question, but I cant figure it out!
The skin I choose has a specific hover colour for buttons in the main menu, can you tell me which part of the custom CSS to change to make it a colour other than blue? If you hover over the red contact menu button here you will see what I mean.
Thanks for your help! http://tintview.qdesigns.ca
Hi,
The blue color is coming from your settings under Customize > General Theme Options > Links & Buttons where it looks like you set a custom button hover color. So you could edit it there but it will affect all buttons.
Or you can go to Appearance > Customize > General Theme Options > Accent Colors and change the secondary accent color which is used for hovers and it should override the button in the menu.
If you want to use CSS it would look something like this:
#site-navigation .menu-button >a:hover >span.link-inner { background: #000 !important; }
I hope you are having a nice weekend!
- AJ
Hi,
No there hasn’t been any changes to this function for a long time now, did you install any new plugins that may be altering excerpts globally on the site? What are you altering exactly? I can recreate it locally to see if I also have issues.
- AJ
Hey AJ,
I set this up on a test site first using the latest version 4.6.1.
I started with just copying in the snippet exactly and replaced get_the_excerpt() with get_the_content(). This worked perfectly as expected. I added some additional logic that only applied it to certain content types and I didn’t have any issues there either.
if ( 'promotion' == get_post_type() ) {
$args['custom_output'] = get_the_content();
return $args;
}
When I moved the same function to my live site it doesn’t actually work and I get the following error:
Warning: extract() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /www/wp-content/themes/Total/framework/helpers/excerpts.php on line 63
The live site is also using version 4.6.1 of the theme and the only real difference is that my live site has w3 total cache with a CDN in place.
I should also note that I did try clearing the cache.
I just realized that the error is probably caused by applying the filter with nothing returned. I just adjusted that but it still does not alter the excerpt output
Hi,
Yes you shouldn’t have any errors if the filter is being used correctly. Can you paste the whole code you are using with all the type checks? Preferably via a gist – https://gist.github.com/ – so I can double check the code.
Testing the sample snippet shouldn’t return any errors (just double checked and looked at the filter code to make sure – as long as you are returning an array of args there shouldn’t be issues).
- AJ
Hi, I have an Image Grid with Grid Style=’Fit Rows’ and Image Size=’Portfolio_related’. Some images have different aspect ratio.
How can each image fill the whole box? In other words, I would like height of each image to be always the same (I don’t care if width doesn’t fit;it can be cropped).
You can see my issue here: http://polixni.com/hotel/%CF%86%CF%89%CF%84%CE%BF%CE%B3%CF%81%CE%B1%CF%86%CE%AF%CE%B5%CF%82/Thank you.
Hi,
What do you have for your cropping settings for the related portfolio size under Theme Panel > Image Sizes?
If you want to crop images vertical so they are the same height you’ll want to enter a fixed height value for the image size. For a hard crop make sure to enter both a height and a width value but for a resized image you can enter 9999 for the width and a fixed height like 200 so images will resize to a 200px height but keep their proportion.
Of course if your images vary a lot in sizes or if you have some very small images (smaller then your defined height) then they may still end up being different sizes in which case you could use CSS to force a specific height, but this of course won’t keep the proper aspect ration so having good sizes entered in the panel that works for all images is ideal.
Also because your images have the hover animation there is CSS in the the theme forcing them to be 100% wide (to prevent display issues) which you can reset if you want like this:
body .wpex-image-hover img { width: auto !important; }

Hi AJ,
I have a question regarding the one page scrolling feature. I set it up as follows:
1. I created a new menu option with a custom link. 2. I put ’/#contact’ in as the url and gave it a local scroll ID. 3. I gave the corresponding location on the homepage the right local scroll ID.
It works great on the homepage. It puts itself in just the right location, but the problem I’m facing occurs when I use the same menu button on another page. It then acts as if there is just an anchor on the homepage, and puts itself in the wrong location.
If you want to test: here’s the url where the contact menu item does work: https://realconcepts.nl/ here’s the url where the contact menu item doesn’t work: https://realconcepts.nl/communicatiespecialist/
Is there anything I can do about this to solve it?
Thank you!
Hi,
The issue is when you enter /#contact for the URL it becomes a local link. You need to enter the full URL like this: https://realconcepts.nl/#contact – this way the browser will know to go back to your homepage. But also it’s better for SEO
