    You’ll notice on this page: http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/blog-multi-author/
    I’ve got two blog entries.
    When you click on the featured image, it takes you to a separate, single page for that blog. Can I a) keep that from happening; and, b) fill up the negative space on the gray box where the logo doesn’t fill it up (see: http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-is-advertising-on-internet-radio/)?
    Overall, do you have any suggestions on how to strreamline the blogging? We’ll be using non-tech’y types and I want it to be as simple as possible.

    Next issue:
    When I go to insert a picture (via the media manager / media library), I know that some themes have “insert picture from URL” but this one doesn’t. Is there a way to make that happen?

    Hey garyguthrie!

    1.) You can add this on Quick CSS or custom.css to remove the link on featured image:

    .template-page .big-preview a {
    pointer-events: none;
    }

    2.) The theme’s template like the portfolio can only accept thumbnails or images that is uploaded on the wp media library. You can’t use the default “Insert from URL” on the theme.

    Cheers!

    Hmm, I tried the fix, but it didn’t work —
    See: http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-is-advertising-on-internet-radio/
    and you’ll see the icon is still there
    and
    http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-ads-on-internet-radio/
    and you’ll see how the featured image doesn’t fit into the box.
    So, what do you think?

    Hi!

    Please add following code to Quick CSS as well

    .single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; }
    .single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; }
    .main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }

    Cheers!

    Genius! Thank you. I get such great service from you folks.
    Now…
    Is there a way to keep the height/size of all the featured images the same? See http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/blog-grid/ as an example.

    #245754

    Hi!

    You can try adding following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under Styling tab

    .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }

    Cheers!

    Hmm…
    Now, images are getting cut-off, like the Radio Advertising Bureau logo in the 2nd post, here:
    http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/angel-street-blog/
    Thoughts?
    I resized it but it didn’t change anything.

    #246898

    Hey!

    Try to use following code instead:

    
    .page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }
    

    The code will make sure that other pages/sliders are not affected.

    Best regards,
    Peter

    #247136

    Nah, that didn’t do it, either. http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/angel-street-blog/
    Here’s all the code, as suggested:
    .team-img-container img { float: left; }
    body .column-top-margin { margin-top: 10px; }
    .content, .sidebar { padding-top: 10px; }
    .template-page .big-preview a {
    pointer-events: none;
    }
    .single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; }
    .single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; }
    .main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }
    .page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }

    Thanks for your help on this. I really appreciate the extra lift you’re giving this issue.

    Any updated thoughts about this?

    #248641

    Try this one:

    .blog-meta a {
        pointer-events: none !important;
    }

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    Please edit functions.php, find this code on line 93:

    $avia_config['imgSize']['square'] 		 	    = array('width'=>180, 'height'=>180);		                 // small image for blogs
    

    Replace it with:

    $avia_config['imgSize']['square'] 		 	    = array('width'=>180, 'height'=>180, 'crop'=>false);		                 // small image for blogs
    

    This will prevent wp from cropping the edges of the small preview image. Regenerate the thumbnails using this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

    Ismael

    Hey!

    Thank you for the update.

    You’re using version 2.6.1, please update the theme to 2.6.2 then do the changes above. Please download the latest version from your themeforest account then update the theme via FTP. Please refer to this link: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/updating-your-theme-files/

    Cheers!
    Ismael

    I did the update, edited the code, and the installation of the thumbnail regenerator and nothing has changed.
    See: http://fairfieldcounty.info/angel-street-blog/
    Are you sure there’s nothing conflicting from all the styling adjustments you had me make? See below:
    .team-img-container img { float: left; }
    body .column-top-margin { margin-top: 1px; }
    .content, .sidebar { padding-top: 10px; }
    .template-page .big-preview a {
    pointer-events: none;
    }
    .single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; }
    .single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; }
    .main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }
    .page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }
    .blog-meta a {
    pointer-events: none !important;
    }

    Hi!

    Thank you for the info.

    This has nothing to do with css. If you inspect the small preview images, they are cropped on the edges. I’m sorry but did you do the changes above? The images are still cropped which suggests that you didn’t add the crop parameter on the post thumbnail. Also, after installing the regenerate thumbnails plugin, did you use it? Go to Tools > Regen. Thumbnails to regenerate the thumbnails. Make sure that you modify the functions.php as suggested above.

    Regards,
    Ismael

    Ismael, my apologies.
    I thought I had gone through all the steps for the thumbs regenerator, but I hadn’t. My bad.
    Thanks for your patience and guidance through all of this. It’s much appreciated.
    Gary
