Hi Pratik,

Yes, squares are much better. Thank you for your help.

Hi Tikaram,
This is all much better. How can I enlarge the size of the text for the subcategories? I tried adding font-size to the CSS for .category-podcasts .entry-footer but it didn’t make a difference.

Thank you

No Sidebar (Content Width)
Excerpt Image Left
Disabled

Hmmm. They do get cropped vertically. If we decide to address that how can I make them all square instead of the current rectangle?

[catwingz]

That worked. Thank you

[catwingz]

Thanks, that worked. Now I have one more.

The button in the right promotion headline has a green border which is also skipped in the color options. I have tried this

#promotion-message.right a.promotion-button:hover {
border: #ffffff;
}

but it’s still green. what am I missing?

Sorry, it was in an earlier thread: temporary url

Hi Pratik,

The font changed and he is really happy with the banner now.

He says he definitely wants the phone number in the button, so I will set up a child theme. Please tell me what I need to do to get it so that it is different for mobile and desktop.

Thank you!

Hi Pratik,

1. The image is already there. I have tried it in several sizes, but since it automatically adjusts to the width of the screen I feel like I might be chasing it. Isn’t there some CSS that can place some limits on it?

2. I tried the code but the font remains the same.

4. This is a case of the solution to one problem causing another. Is there a way to set this up so it’s only for mobile? Otherwise it looks like I will need to stick with something a desktop browser will know what to do with.

Thank you

Fyi, the only way you can see the site is if you are logged into it.

Hi Pratik,

The header image is already disabled in the Customizer. Something else must be causing this.

I will be hiring a developer, and I need to get it working before the end of the week. I hope this doesn’t complicate things.

Thank you

Mahesh,

The plugin author said that both the plugin and your theme use the Cycle2 javascript library. Thankfully he has a built-in control to turn this off in the plugin. Problem solved.

Thanks again

Hi Pratik,

That was a big step in the right direction. First, I thought I had already given the url, My apologies, it’s here. Most of it is hidden right now, but this is a large site in the beginning stages of a makeover. At the moment only the Home, About and BSR Wisdom/blog pages have featured images/video. The About page has a video and that is displaying as intended. The new issue is that on the Home page the featured image is showing twice. This is not happening with the single posts or the video. What do I need to do to get it back to one?

With the blog I can see that relying on featured image may become a problem. I hope that it’s not going to mean needing a different solution. Is there any way I can choose the image to go in the banner for the blog? This will probably be all square images which aren’t going to work well in a banner…

One part of the makeover is to deal with images which are way too huge for a website. On the second blog post’s single page you can see what I mean. What is the ideal size for an image to display in the banner? The video is actually a little on the large size, but I will take that up with the plugin author to see if there is any control there.

An unrelated question, on the pages without a sidebar, how can I make the margins smaller, giving the content more room, without causing problems in mobile?

Thank you!

Hi again Pratik,

I tried it and believe I learned that the ‘catchresponsive’ part needs to stay in the code. That said, I don’t know that we are on the same track after all. What I want is for the featured image/video to be banner-sized in place of the slider image. These instructions appear to be giving all of the pages a sidebar which is not at all what is desired. The only part of the site which will have a sidebar are the posts. The About page currently has a demo cat video from the Featured Video Plus plugin. If this were working correctly that video would be up in place of the slider, and as large as those slides, and the page would have no sidebar. Can we get there?

Thank you

[catwingz]

Hi Pratik,

Yes, I think we are on the same track now. However, there is one piece of confusion I need to be clear about. In the code for functions.php I started out for code from cleanresponsive because I found it in that forum. Since I am/will be working with Clean Journal/Clean Journal Pro, should I be replacing all instances of catchresponsive with clean-journal, clean-journal-parent or clean-journal-child (or clean-journal-pro, etc.)?

Thank you

[catwingz]

Pratik,

It looks to me like this will replace the slider with a video. Is there any way to make it work for a featured image?

If I use it does it go in the functions.php file?

Thank you

[catwingz]

Tikaram,
I added the code and now the menu shows, but it is in plain text and missing the styling of the menu directly below it. How do I apply the CSS to correct this?

Thank you

[catwingz]

At this point the home page of the site is showing up correctly on mobile some of the time. However, if the menu that you refer to as primary is opened there is no way to close it. The only way to get past it is to click on one of the links. This leads to a page with no logo and the menu we consider to be the main one missing. For the secondary pages the colors of the menu and search bar which show are blue, not the color needed. If I hit the back button to get back to the home page with the rest of the navigation I find that the logo, banner,sidebar, and upper menu have disappeared, leaving the whole site with only what we consider sub-navigation available, and no ‘check availability’ button from the sidebar. This is NOT working!!!

Please help with this. It is a very small hotel and needs to have mobile working properly.

thank you

[catwingz]

Update – I found some code for the top bar colors and went back to check the site again. Now, on the home page only, the slider, logo, menus and check availbility button are all showing. I didn’t do anything and this definitely wasn’t there before – plus it’s a new phone so cache issues are highly unlikely!
If any page link is followed the logo, menu issues and missing sidebar content are all still a problem. It is also odd that when the menu which is most persistent is opened there is no easy way to close it again unless you click on a page link.

Regarding the colors, WordPress decided I was ‘cheating’ and wouldn’t save my CSS changes. The color of the top bar is still blue on all of those pages. I don’t know if what I was going to do is going to work or not.
Fyi, intermittently this site comes up with an old theme hosted on wordpress.com. This is also in the process of being resolved…
thank you in advance.
