Hey Rikard!
Thanx so much for the quick reply!
This is so wierd.
For several days I had no menu in Safari. (really!)
Now everything is fine.
The problem has (miraculously) gone away.
Thanx again for taking a look.Kind regards,
AdrianHello Victoria, Ismael,
Thanks again for all your help!
Since I’m using a child-theme, I thought let’s give it a try…I re-installed the Enfold theme… and the problem with menus went away.
Everything’s hunky dory now.
Kind regards,
Adrian
Hello Ismael,
I quickly removed all my CSS adaptations, (style.css in the child theme), to see if these were causing the problem… but even with no CSS the menu was still acting strangely.
No menu appears on mobile.
There is an extra category “Menu” on the desktop site.Should I reinstall Enfold and WP? This way we know that it’s not these installations either.
Lots of thanks!
Adrian
Hello Ismael,
Thanks so much for taking a look!
No. I didn’t alter any parent files in the theme.
I don’t remember the exact version of WordPress I was using before I updated.
Can this be to do with CSS? My changes are in the style.css file in the child theme and in the Quick CSS section of the dashboard.
Kind regards,
Adrian
Hello Victoria!
Thankyou very much for your answer. Removing that code as you suggested solved one of the problems…
(I recently started using a child-theme. This is when my menu issues started.)
I was a bit shocked to find that my custom.css was causing the problem. My apologies for this!Up until changing to a child theme everything had been fine. (Here is a screen shot of the home page before using the child theme – https://vizspecialeffects.nl/original.png). The Facebook logo linked to my Facebook page and the search icon activated a search.
The problem at the moment…
1) No menu appears on the mobile version of the site.
2) There is an unwanted extra menu category after the search icon in the desktop version. This category is called “Menu”, but should not appear at all.I’ve tried locating the problems myself but haven’t got anywhere. If you have any suggestions I would be very grateful!
Thanks again!
Adrian
Hello Victoria,
Thanks for getting back to me!
Below are the details you asked for.
Kind regards,Adrian
Thanks very much for your answer Victoria!
… in the end I decided to use a masonry gallery instead of a “simple” gallery. I noticed that masonry galleries have the standard functionality of being able show videos and/or images.
Kind regards,Adrian
Hi Nick,
thanks very much! This is exactly what we were looking for. But know there is an other problem.
I had it working yesterday but now it doesn’t work any more.
Yesterday the gallery showed tooltips above all thumbs on rollover.
Today it only shows the tooltip with thumbs that link to a video. And the tooltip contains the url that is added to the caption field.
Look at: http://www.vizspecialeffects.nl/projects/ford-focus/
The first thumb of the first gallery should open a video but I can’t get it working any more.
I don’t understand how this has happened. All I changed in this theme is header.php (google font), custom.css & gallery.php.
I have recreated gallery.php several times following your instructions yesterday evening, but can’t get it to work any more!
Any clues, I’m getting a bit desperate meanwhile?
Can I send you wordpress/ftp login through private message yo have a look?
Thanks very much, regards
Rob (& Adrian)
Hi Ismael,
thanks very much for your quick solution, this is almost exactly what we want.
One more adjustment would make it even more easy to to set up all our avia galleries (we want to create many): most of the thumbs will be pointing to the original full-size image in the lightbox. Only some 20% will be pointing to a video. Now we also have to look up the url’s for all full-size images.
Would it be possible that – if the alt field is empty – the thumb is automatically pointed to the full size-image of the thumb (in the lightbox)?
As mentioned, we would be willing to pay for adaptions because it would save us a lot of time setting up the galleries.
Thanks again, regards Rob & Adrian
Hi Logan2d,
thanks for your elaborate explanation (and time!). We had also been thinking about this solution (but didn’t try it yet).
Nice thing is that the roll-over shows whether its a still or a video.
We’re afraid this will not be a practical solution for our problem because we want to place so many stills and videos (several hundreds).
We would have to create separate categories for each still & video and won’t be able to use the categories function in the way it was intended (and would work for us). We also want to have a solution to create projects (with galleries) fast to show client the progress on projects (tests & demo’s).
We think we will contact Kriesi to ask if it is possible to adapt gallery.php (avia) as a commissioned request.
We think it should be possible to use the caption field of the gallery entries as a destination link for a video to show in the lightbox.
We want to created separate thumbnail images with a video icon, so the user knows that it is a video.
If the caption field is empty, the normal attachment (still) should be shown in the lightbox.
Thanks again, Logan2d
Greetings Adrian & Rob
@Dude/Devin: can you have a look at the request above and let us know if it is possible to create a adaptation of gallery.php
Please contact us through mail to discuss possibilities, costs etc.
Hi Logan2d,
that’s perfect (I think), can you walk me through? I’m very interested how you did this.
Would this also work whith self-hosted videos and vimeo?
Thanks Adrian
Hi Devin,
It is not in the Portfolio Grid but in the Avia Gallery that we want to be able to show video’s in the Lightbox.
We want to create our own thumbnail images for each video and than want to be able to link that image to a youtube, vimeo or selfhosted video. Have a look at http://www.vizspecialeffects.nl/projects/ford-focus/ . First image is a preview to a video but in the gallery we would like to have images as well as video’s that show/play in the lightbox.
We read the post https://kriesi.at/support/topic/linking-gallery-images-to-url and thought that might be a solution.
But we can’t get that solution working, and even than we would have to provide url’s for all images as well as videos.
Hope you can help, thanks Rob
Hello Devin, Ismael, Logan,
Thanks for thinking about this!
I have found the functionality you refer to by updating to version 1.6
Alas, I don’t think it’s quite what I’m looking for.
This new feature allows a portfolio preview to link to a different location than the default, (which would be the portfolio entry itself).
What I am looking for is a way to use the gallery feature, in a page or a portfolio, to link to individual videos, which then display in LightBox on that page.
Currently, clicking on a preview image in a gallery grid simply displays an enlargement of that image.
I would like to be able to display a video by clicking on a preview image in a gallery gird.
I was really hoping there’s a work around for this!
Thanks again,
Adrian
