    @tikaram regarding the portfolio section links, the site is already using a child theme, so no problem there.

    You can disregard #330192 in this thread because it has finally made it into its own thread. I had trouble posting in the forum and I believe someone placed it here not understanding it’s a new issue and a different website.

    Thank you

    @tikaram what can I do to make it so the entire Portfolio featured image/box is the link instead of just the text title? The text is too limiting, actually difficult to click, and not readily apparent that they are links. This addition is currently viewable here

    thank you

    Where is the upper one edited? It looks bad for there to be the information to be in two places.

    Hi Sakin,

    This looks like what I tried before, but I will repeat it in hopes of a better outcome. The website is now public — https://aligningwithsoul.com

    The footer issue shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve tried so many things and I’m going to be really interested in seeing what I missed.

    There is one other thing I would like to solve. The WP Header Image plugin is on the site so the About page can have a different image. I’ve used this plugin before and there appears to be some sort of a conflict with the theme. At this point it’s a three page site. The home page and blog each have their own rules. This leaves the About page where when you scroll down the page the header stays in place, effectively blocking the upper half of the viewport. It should scroll with the rest of the content. Can you help with this?

    thank you

    Sakin,

    Much belated, but I added this code and it fixed the problem. Thanks to you both.

    Hi Skandha,

    I tried the code. I’ve left it in place for now but it doesn’t make any difference. Is there something else I can try?

    Thank you

    Hi Skandha,

    While not my favorite button, it solved that problem. The site has launched now at https://johndmaddinart.com  He is very happy with it except I am noticing one new problem.

    There are now enough items in the top navigation that on some screens the background grey for the links goes to a second line. This didn’t happen right away but sometimes the background is tall enough that it looks like it could hold three lines, and the page title becomes hidden. There is a possibility this is browser related but I’m not able to do a good test. Is there a fix for this (other than removing a link or two)?

    Thank you

    @Skandha the nameservers are now in the process of being reset. As soon as they resolve you will be able to see the website at https://johndmaddinart.com

    Thank you for your help.

    @Skandha, the buttons may have to wait until his domain registration issue is resolved. Here’s a temporary link. They don’t last long, but just in case: https://j1tef.skipdns.link

    It turned out the correct selector was .section-title. My mistake was to put the h2 in it. Problem solved.

    I think the buttons may be the last thing to do. It will be a great looking site when it’s done.

    Thank you

    Hi Skandha,

    This brings me back to where I started. Is this the correct selector for me to target?: h2.section-title

    Also, I ran into this after I submitted my last post but the tool made me wait.


    @skandha
    , I just discovered the buttons on the home page have more tricks. This is a battle of the buttons. Read all of this first because there are two different sets of buttons with different problems.  I only need one set and am not sure which is the better way to go.
    #1) I am putting content in the Featured section and found that the automatically generated Continue Reading buttons there have the same problem the buttons on the blog posts had. It looks like they should have the same code but clearly not.  https://tinyurl.com/y45ovq4w
    This is what is in place:
    a.readmore {
background-image: linear-gradient( rgb(217,81,6),rgb(153,58,26))!important;
}
#infinite-post-wrap .more-link {
width: 150px;
}
p.more-link {
background-image: linear-gradient( rgb(217,81,6),rgb(153,58,26))!important;
padding:auto 0 auto 3px;
border-radius: 5px;
text-align: center;
}
    #2) I decided to try shortening the excerpts manually because the Illustration/Dandelion wine box on the right actually has a text link which doesn’t work or show in the normal excerpt. With the shorter excerpt this link is removed but the buttons change. I could live with these if I could center them. I prefer the other buttons but suspect that fixing the text link issue would be more difficult.

    Is it possible to center these buttons? I tried and failed.
    Thank you

    Hi Skandha,

    A child theme is easy, but what is the CSS for the font change? I haven’t chosen the replacement but would like to have something more readable.

    Thank you

    @ Skandha, I’ve left reviews before but it’s been awhile so I’d be happy to do another.

    I do have one more question about this though. I’ve decided I’d like to change the font these heading are using and I’m getting some push back. When I add

    h2.section-title {
    font-family: “Whisper” !important;
    }

    with or without the important, the font does change, but not to anything like what I’m considering. What am I missing?

    Thank you

    This is temporary. I’m having to develop it using a hosts file

    These links don’t last very long… here’s another one:

    Hi Skandha,

    This update solved one problem but created another. It is now possible to change the title of the section but when I did this I discovered that the font had changed to the one used for the site title, except much larger and orange. This is not acceptable. The font should be able to stay the same as the other sections.

    Hi Skandha,

    The buttons are perfect now. 🙂

    How can I change the name of the Testimonials section?

    Thank you

    The notice was from Google. That’s all we know. I remember the “clickable elements too close together” was reported quite awhile ago but it was never resolved.

    Hi Skandha,

    Problem solved. I can’t find the error but it must be there because now it’s working, and perfect at 80px. Thanks for your help.

    I reinstated it. It still doesn’t work. As I’ve said, this used to work but stopped apparently after a theme update.
