Rogue Color Layer

Hi,

This CSS will fix the testimonials on live site that are jumping since one a little shorter, the code will hold their heights so that annoying jump of the page as the testimonial box resizes goes away

.avia-slider-testimonials .avia-testimonial-content, .avia-slider-testimonials .avia-testimonial-content p:last-child  {

height: 179px;

}

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,

Oh, that’s nothing. WordPress’s haunted. I can tell you some storied. I once deleted a website, put a different image on the server, started a new site, reinstalled my browser and the deleted site was still up! and not only that, people were sending me messages and a few even placed orders and I was getting google analytics data. Went for a good two weeks like that.

Some say when you clone some deprecated private interface without first declaring it … bad stuff happens. Dunno what but I read that after doing that they never find their glasses , ever again. Some of these people haven’t left the parent’s basement in years. Sun would kill them, on the spot, so I believe them. A real puzzle of an enigma..

You do know you still have that css file that’s encrypted and is enqueued on your installation that I said should be removed a week or more ago, right? Its gone, but its being enqueued somewhere out there. Please remove it from enqueue_style function somewhere on your site.

Take a look here

You see all those numbers on the left? That is the number of times the css code for color white can be found in each of your css files right now. That’s a dozen or three selectors with white color, and there are more with #fffffff and white and 255 255 255…. So this isn’t exactly a proper WordPress haunting like that time Booger McGinsky went into the code repository and never came out!

:) It’s midnight sunday!

Thanks,

Hi,

No cynicism. Ghost site true story and so is image where all those white color codes are in css files on your site. Listen, there are internal caches , server caches, all kinds of stuff. There is jQuery problems where css is taken from a different selector. You have a file enqued in your theme somehow, so someone wrote that files location out and added it somehow. And if that happen, I am ready to believe about white colors as well. Read over things I write on the forum.

Its a waste of time in my opinion, trying to play Sherlock Holmes and the ghost in the machine , because I did enough of that, and let me tell you, that most times you will find nothing( https://kriesi.at/support/topic/angular-logo-centers-on-mobile-devices-should-be-left-justified#post-111167 ), but waste lot of time, its not gonna get you anywhere ( https://kriesi.at/support/topic/woocommerce-addition-of-items-in-cart-not-correct#post-83790 ) , focus on the goal ( https://kriesi.at/support/topic/home-page-slider#post-105249 ). I just added those to show that weird stuff happens, and my advice is consistent, so no cynicism.

What i would like to know is why your website looks dark grey on Chrome Regular and dark blue on Chrome Canary (developer Chrome version)

Now thats weird, something new I haven’t seen before.

Hi,

No kidding, I am still working on the grey site. See that’s what I was talking about.

Your site looks really good in all the colors you’ve done it. You got an eye for this. I can;’t match 2 colors , have to ask people lol.I think you are taking the wrong approach with this, if may make an observation. You are changing awesome looking super hi pro looking site left and right. I do the same but thats because my colors look hideous. You should be entering content and get something up , like 100% up and running and then once the goal is accomplished you can play around with different looks. However I wouldnt throw away those designs you did since each can be part of a living portfolio.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,

I am trying to understand what you are seeing, because this is what I see in Chrome on Windos 7 http://www.clipular.com/c?7180226=65G_ENiS0TuPzhP8gfxP6Nr6feM&f=.png , FF looks same, and so does IE.

The way the theme works is that a css file gets dynamically generated based on settings in Enfold > Theme Options > Styling. This css file gets written into the upload folder of wordpress (since chances are the server allows file writing there) . In your case this is the file http://www.andypeck.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/dynamic_avia/enfold.css. It is executed right before custom.css in the cascade.

I just ran an app that counts which selectors in css are used and which are ignored and 98% of css is not used on your site. I have a feeling that maybe some of these selectors may be used somehow even though they are. WordPress 2.6 promises tons of improvements so for now i would just continue building. When you are finished thats the time to remove the unneeded selectors and I have a feeling things will fall in place. If this is done now, then when you add anything extra there wont be a selector to style it, so thats why i suggest you get to the point where you have everything finalized. On top of that its a great optimization technique.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,

Ahh, so the background color on my snapshot, for sidebar, content area, socket and header is not the color you selected. Should have said just that, because how am I supposed to know.

Been looking , and even though that black color you have is exactly the color if 10.5% transparent black is painted on white, in reality it is color #191919 and it is used on page /includes/admin/register_backend_styles.php on lines 625,638,690, and 704. I think if you change that to #000, your troubles may be over!

changing that produced for me http://i.imgur.com/3QQMkvt.jpg

There are a couple other colors hard coded on the page and I think you will find all the ones that been showing up

============

I also got plan B lined up. I am gonna give you a new css file with all extra css removed which will take the place of enfold.css

I looked at all the transparency css, and also found this :

#top .socket_color .avia-color-theme-color {

color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

}

#top .header_color .avia-color-theme-color {

color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

}

#top .main_color .avia-color-theme-color {

color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

}

#top .alternate_color .avia-color-theme-color {

color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

}

#top .footer_color .avia-color-theme-color {

color:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

}

They can be neutralized by changing 0.5 to 0.0

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,

Its there because most people are like me and are incapable of matching colors. With this , they now can pick a few colors and the tones will be created for them based on the main colors, the shades and all that by adding a % transparency. If the colors here aren’t used and instead are styled as i showed you long ago using css and chrome developer tools, then all would be well and none of this would be bothering you. :)

But in any case, tell me locations just like u did there with the arrows, and i can get you the color css for it, and u can change it easily yourself.

THanks,

Nick

Hi,

Please provide a link to your site so I can answer your questions. I also wouldn’t use !SUPERDUPERIMPORTANT since IE8 is not familiar with that syntax.

Thanks,

Nick
