    Hiya,

    I found this is the class to alter:

    .avia_transform a:hover .image-overlay { opacity: 0.3 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important; }

    It now adds only a 30% white tint on rollover so a lot more subtle.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi thanks. I must be doing something wrong as it hasn’t made any difference. I have added this to the style.css file in the child theme:
    .avia-slideshow-button.avia-color-light:hover { opacity: 1 !important;; color: #fff !important; }

    I want to stop the whole image going paler when rolled over. I have hidden the button already.

    All the other changes I have added to this file have worked ok, so I think perhaps the class isn’t quite right? Or maybe I haven’t explained myself properly?

    Thanks for your help.

    Sorry, one more query now…

    As I now have images on the link they are using the icon and fade out effect, which looks too over-strong for my website. I have successfully edited the CSS so that the icon does not display, but HOW DO I CHANGE THE FADING ROLL OVER EFFECT?

    THANKS

    Oh I see!

    Sorry. I don’t think I scrolled down the page enough.

    Will do some experimenting with these – THANKS.

    Ok I see what you mean. I will come up with a different way of producing previews of my pages.

    Thanks for the advice.

    Thanks Devin,

    I was looking for the most automated route as there would be lots of them to do. It’s a shame there isn’t a way to use the Avia Layout Builder on POSTS, which would be the perfect work around?

    See you,

    Colin

    Hi Ismael,

    Thank you for your clever response. I presume making the format LINK would make the page display the linked page?

    Sadly it doesnt display any of the content from the page:
    If I use BLOG POSTS, even with Full Content selected all I get is the Post Heading and the date details etc. No images.
    If I use POST SLIDER, set the post format to LINK, all I get on the page I want this post to display is a big link icon and the heading as with blog posts.

    Any idea what I am doing wrong? This is the URL for the home page where I want to show the posts at the bottom http://client1.waltoncreative.com
    Currently it is showing content elements: four x text blocks / blog posts / post slider
    The PAGE I want to display is this: http://client1.waltoncreative.com/index.php/photography/plants-and-garden-photos/
    The POST i am using as the intermediary is: http://client1.waltoncreative.com/index.php/category/news/ which only shows an icon rather than displaying the page itself.

    Am I expecting it to do too much???

    Brilliant! I had no idea that saying !important; forced it to take precedent.

    You learn something everyday!

    Thanks

    Hi Yigit,

    Thank you for your reply. I tried exactly as suggested by adding it to QuickCSS, but as the border colour is already specified as:
    border-colour: #666666; the required colour #FFFFFF is ignored

    I then tried being more specific about the class by adding div. at the beginning which had no effect either.

    In the end the only way to alter it seems to be to make the width of the border colour zero – so not really ideal:
    div.special-heading-inner-border { width: 0; }

    So my question now is how do we OVERRIDE other settings in CSS?

    I would normally find the original CSS file and edit that, but the structure of the template seems to make that frowned upon.

    Sorry to be pedantic, I just need to know the exact way we are meant to make changes to the appearance.

    Thanks.
