Hello Sakin:

I haven’t followed up on this because of the terrible news from your country. This is the last thing you need to worry about, but you and your country have been in my thoughts. The good news is that for whatever reason, now things look fine in both Explorer and Firefox. It’s a mystery.

I’ll try to work with the plugin developer for the footer issue.

I hope things are improving in Nepal. We hear little news after tragedies like this pass from the headlines, but that doesn’t mean things are all better.

If there is any support I can give you, please let me know.

Hi Sakin:

It looks fantastic in Chrome – just the way I want it to look. Is there some way to do the same with Explorer and Firefox? I know browsers behave differently, but I don’t really know why they wouldn’t read css the same way.

If this can be resolved, then I’m home free! Well, except for that closing div that you mentioned. Have to go find that.

Thanks for your help Sakin.

Best regards,

Lisa

Hello Sakin:

I wish it was that easy. The plug-in I’m using is complicated. They have a default wrapper template that contains the content – i.e., the events – whether that’s a list view, a month view, the single view, whatever. I’ve selected the right hand sidebar as my default for the site and the plug-in is picking up that default template. I can’t just go to the plug-in page and select a new default for that page. I must actually go in to the directories, create a new folder and copy template files in there so it picks up the template I want to use for events, which is full-width.

I need to replace their default wrapper with the full-width one for Simple Catch so that it displays as full-width.

Thanks,

Lisa

Hi Sakin:

Awesome! That worked.

One more question (isn’t there always one more?): How do I remove ‘on MySpace’ when the cursor is on the envelope icon? I’d like it to say: ‘eLetter’ or something like that. I’ve looked through the .php files and it looks like this should be edited in simplecatch_functions.php, the excerpt I thought needed to be changed is below, but when I changed ‘on MySpace’ to ‘eLetter’ that didn’t work, so I’m missing something.

//MySpace
if ( !empty( $options[ ‘social_myspace’ ] ) ) {
$simplecatch_headersocialnetworks .=
‘<li class=”myspace”>‘, ‘simplecatch’ ),get_bloginfo(‘name’) ).'” target=”_blank”>’.get_bloginfo( ‘name’ ).’ MySpace ‘;
}

I appreciate any help you can give.

Thanks again,

Lisa

Hello Sakin:

We are using Simple Catch Pro and want the email ‘envelope’ Social icon to go to a page so people can sign up for our eLetter. I was able employ the suggestion you made to @shaneskinner (see below) but instead of the Facebook icon, we want the Envelope icon. See the site http://dev.cthumanities.org and click on the last Facebook to see what I mean. Can you tell me what the code should be to make it the envelope icon?

ul.social-profile li.myspace a {
background-position: 0 0;
}
ul.social-profile li.myspace a:hover {
background-position: 0 -43px;
}

Thanks!

I’ve found the answer!

The code goes in the following file:

wp-content -> [your theme folder name] – index.php

Enter it below the existing .php code

Hope this helps,

@pnstlion: I feel your pain here – I, too, am trying to use MailChimp’s popup subscriber form and found the same set of instructions. I THINK the code should go somewhere in functions.php, header.php, or index.php – but not sure where, exactly. That’s beyond my expertise!

@Sakin – Does that make anything clearer? This is a popup signup form and wouldn’t get dumped into a page, I don’t think. The plugin you suggest is for adding a form to a sidebar or embedding within a page which isn’t what we were aiming for exactly.

If anyone can clarify this, I’d be very grateful.

Thanks!
