Looks like the error was fixed. Thanks
November 20, 2014 at 11:46 pm in reply to: Contact Forms Disappeared with WP update to 4.0.1 #354609The contact form issue was the only issue on one of my sites so I am temporarily using this plugin. Seems to work and style well. If I had more issues, I’d roll back. There was no beta of this update released from WP for the theme authors to test things, they are quickly working on a fix.
Thanks Aribann, that is a very helpful solution. I’d certainly back up my site and before doing this fix, but it’s a great suggestion. :)
Also thanks to begrafiks but be careful using the code provided hastily. There’s an error in the code above pasted that would cause a problem (the extra space between forward slash and stars in the comment made a syntax error in highlighted in dreamweaver) with the space that line is read as invalid code rather than a comment. It should instead read:
/** STOP AUTOMATIC UPDATE OF WordPress */
define( ‘AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED’, true );It hasn’t been 24 hours yet. I’m sure they are working on identifying the problems to provide us a fix. Their support is generally excellent. If they spend all of their time answering our queries immediately, they won’t be able to fix our issues quickly. Perhaps we should cut them a little slack to work on a solution?
I’m simply setting up a sliderless page and enabling WP Maintenance mode on my other site where the slider is broken until there’s a good workaround or fix.
Also, it seems they are indeed working quickly on developing a patch.

November 14, 2014 at 10:19 am in reply to: Tab shortcode z-index issue with popup/tooltip plugins and media #351179Thanks Ismael as I stated above, since there isn’t a simple CSS tweak I’d figure it out on my own, or use a different method. My intent above wasn’t to ask for further (unsupported) support since I’m aware that this is beyond the scope of the theme. I thought I’d simply post a final update and say thanks for the extension of the regular tooltip use which I’ve already began to implement and play with. It’s pretty cool.
One suggestion, a channel or discussion area on the support blog where users can have non-help-ticketed discussions and advice would be nice. :)
PS. Turns out the latest Tippy version has an option to reposition tooltips by specifying a parent css class to house it. Once I updated and moved it outside of tab section, I was able to make it work without being cut off. It was the only plugin I could find (out of 20+ tooltip plugins) that had this option available. Thought someone else might find this helpful.

November 13, 2014 at 9:10 am in reply to: Sign up button in side bar is not highlighting properly? #350596We just need to look at the CSS for visual/styling issues. Taking a second look, you don’t see a hover background colour change because you have set this colour as the same for both background and highlight colour:
.main_color input[type=”submit”] {
background-color: #E76A5C;
color: #FFF;
border-color: #C5483A;
}.main_color input[type=”submit”]:hover {
background-color: #E76A5C;
color: transparent;
border-color: #C5483A;
}Go to Enfold > General Styling > Look at the “main content” and “alternate content” tabs
Do you have the same colour set for “Primary Colour” and “Highlight Color” in either one of these tabs? If so you’re effectively making the background and hover colour the same, so that you can’t see any visible hover change. Play with these colours to see which one you’re doubling up on.Second, try adding the following to your quick.css:
.main_color input[type=”submit”]:hover {
color: #FFF;
}Whatever colour you put there should override the transparent text. Just make sure it doesn’t have an unintended result somewhere else. Aside from that you may need someone from the Kriesi to help you out as they know the theme and what might be causing it.
November 13, 2014 at 8:23 am in reply to: Tab shortcode z-index issue with popup/tooltip plugins and media #350587Thanks Ismael, that works well for plain-text tooltips. The tips I’m creating primarily however contain other media (video and links) coupled with text explanations for academic reference. These don’t work inside of the regular tooltips. I’ll keep trying though until I find a good solution or eliminate the tabs altogether. Just thought there might be a simple css fix I was overlooking. I appreciate the help and the new reusable text tooltip though :)
November 12, 2014 at 11:27 pm in reply to: Sign up button in side bar is not highlighting properly? #350452That’s very odd. You haven’t made any other changes to any other CSS files? Has anyone else made changes for you?

November 12, 2014 at 8:29 am in reply to: Sign up button in side bar is not highlighting properly? #349930Hi Michael, it looks like you’ve made a change in your child.css that’s making your text transparent. It’s actually affecting all of your buttons (search button, submit button, etc):
The offending code is:
.header_color .button:hover, .header_color .ajax_controlls a:hover, .header_color #submit:hover, .header_color .big_button:hover, .header_color .contentSlideControlls a:hover, .header_color #submit:hover, .header_color input[type=”submit”]:hover {
background-color: #E76A5C;
color: transparent;
border-color: #C5483A;
}When you see commas in css, it indicates a bunch of styles being targeted all at once. The rule you are applying affects all of the following styles:
.header_color .button:hover,
.header_color .ajax_controlls a:hover,
.header_color #submit:hover,
.header_color .big_button:hover,
.header_color .contentSlideControlls a:hover,
.header_color #submit:hover,
.header_color input[type=”submit”]:hover {
color:transparent;
}————————————————
color: (is always font color). In this case you made your font transparent which may not have been your intent.If there’s ever a style you’re not sure what it does, you might find W3S to be a really helpful reference:

You can go to Dashboard > Enfold > Blog Layout. Once there please check or uncheck the “meta” info you’d like to hide such as author name. I’m pretty sure email’s don’t display on posts in this theme unless it’s in the body of the comment itself.
November 12, 2014 at 8:10 am in reply to: Special Heading – How do I reduce the top padding? #349925The link you supplied goes to a post that’s no longer available, can you please post an updated link?
November 12, 2014 at 8:00 am in reply to: Post Slider – Excerpt for portfolio isn't working? #349922Excerpts work fine for me in the post slider when checked. Maybe double-check your settings.
Another thing you could try:
When editing a post in the dashboard, at the top right, there’s a little white tab for “screen options.” Make sure “excerpt” is checked so the box for excerpt entry displays at the bottom of your post editor page. Scroll down below the regular editor you’ll now see the excerpt box. Try filling something into it, then publish and see if that fixes it. :)- This reply was modified 10 years ago by cryscryb.
I managed to get the dropcaps displaying using Advanced Excerpt plugin. A bit of googling turned up that WP strips shortcodes from excerpts. It would be great if these could be made to degrade gracefully (still displaying the first character and simply removing the shortcode elements in excerpts) but I’m not sure if this is possible. At any rate I fixed it using the following plugin:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-excerpt/- This reply was modified 10 years ago by cryscryb. Reason: I consulted google and found the solution. Might help someone else in future though :)
The issue actually has nothing to do with that snipet. I removed the above code from my functions.php and created a page instead using the blog posts builder item. As soon as excerpt view is chosen it still strips all dropcaps when the page is viewed. Instead of degrading gracefully and just not displaying the character as a dropcap, the entire character is removed. My paragraphs using dropcaps are just missing the first character in the word that starts the first sentence. Is this a bug?

This seemed like a perfect fix to do exactly what I was after…until I discovered that for some reason this strips all dropcaps characters from posts in 3.0.2. Now all of my entries where dropcaps have been used, are missing the first letter of the sentence! lol. Any ideas how to fix this and still be able to get an automatic excerpt view on category and archive pages?
Thanks in advance for the help! :)
Thank you Josue, that worked beautifully. All I had to change was the function name used in my previous code (used to make the social buttons appear on pages and portfolio items) so there wasn’t a clash/error due to the repeat use of the function name. Looks great now!
Thanks again,
Crys :)This reply has been marked as private.Thanks for your response, but unfortunately that code doesn’t work. I also just updated to the latest version of enfold to see if that might be the issue, however the code still doesn’t work. To be clear, it does work on pages and portfolio items, but not for products. Any other suggestions?
I forgot to mention that I’m using a child theme, so the code is partially successful when put in the child theme’s functions.php.Found it here (there are some other suggestions on this page also that might be better):

Overrides in functions.php work fine for me.
You might try:
// remove related products
function wc_remove_related_products( $args ) {
return array();
}add_filter(‘woocommerce_related_products_args’,’wc_remove_related_products’, 10);

Thanks for the assistance. Rather than making a theme edit, I ended up using WooCommerce Product CSV Import Suite to download all products/pages, and used Openoffice find/replace functions to insert shortcodes to better control/restore the look layout of the images.
I will keep this in mind for future use, however in my existing enfold install (and several clients) this requires editing 2000+ products/variation pages to add new image sizes and column shortcodes. I was hoping to avoid this as it is extremely time consuming. I’ll likely disable this in my own site to save the labor hours. As this will be wiped out on theme updates it’s not an option in my client’s sites and editing all products to add theme shortcodes is not feasible. I’ll try to figure out a way to delete all products and reupload with inserted shortcodes via a CSV mass import/update (after a database backup). Hopefully I can find a meaningful work around. Hmmm :/
