>> Add two color sections. In the first one, apply the background image and put the text and button in the other.
That doesn’t meet my requirements–two separate sections is the one and only reason for this ticket. So I’m not sure why you’re instructing me to do this. I appreciate your help. But it’s a bit confusing, and slows things down, when you give such advice.
>> Unfortunately, you won’t be able to accomplish this using a single element.
This reply is much more helpful–it clearly and directly answers my question :-)
>> It might be possible with a grid row with a single single cell and an image element but we haven’t tried it.
OK thanks. Maybe I’ll try that myself, if I have time.
We can consider this resolved.
December 5, 2019 at 10:20 am in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1162858Hi Gunter,
Thanks for the assistance, and sorry for the delay. I have your new PHP file a shot. I saved it to the correct directory, and even added an error log statement to the file so I know it is executing as expected. But the issue still seems to be present. Namely, the element in-question still seems to possess a min-height inline style (screenshot). I even gave the page a hard refresh, but still see the min-height present. Thoughts?
Let me know if you want access to my site and I can provide it.
Thanks.
We can consider this resolved.
OK. So in light of all that information, is it possible to create what I want? To re-iterate, here is what I want. I want to add a single element to my page. To that element, I want to:
* Assign the element a custom ID or custom class.
* Ensure the element contains three sections inside. All three sections are arranged in a column–one underneath the other.
* Section 1 is a full width image.
* Section 2 is a text element.
* Section 3 is an Avia page builder button element.
* Here is a screenshot of how all three elements would look like on the front-end: https://imgur.com/nGpBbf1
* All three elements should be responsive, e.g. all three sections remain in a single column, with no overlap, at all screen widths.
* All the above is done without editing General Layout > Dimensions > Maximum container width. My site is already built, and has been online for several years. It sounds like editing this option will cause major changes throughout my site.
* All of the above is done without custom CSS.Using the Avia page builder, is this possible? If yes, exactly how would I do that?
Thanks.
OK thanks for confirming. I added that code, then updated the page, but the issue was still there.
I then did some more checking. I told you earlier that my local site is identical to both my dev site, and my live site. But I looked closer, and found out that is not 100% identical. There is one element on the page–a Full Width Slider Revolution element. On the dev site and live site this is an Avia ‘Full Width Slider Rev’ element (screenshot). But on my local site (the site experiencing the issue in-question), this was not an Avia ‘Full Width Slider Rev’ element. It was instead an Avia Text Box element, and inside was a Slider Rev shortcode: [av_revolutionslider id=’2′ av_uid=’av-3crm4p’]. When I deleted that text box element and replaced it with the Avia ‘Full Width Slider Rev’ element, the issue went away. So for some reason, that shortcode was causing issues.
OK thanks. We can consider this resolved.
So are you saying I should add this custom PHP code, then open my home page–the front-end–and see if the issue has been resolved? If not, please spell out the specific steps I should take after adding the PHP code.
OK let me ask my question in a different way. Let’s say I have 50 pages on my site. How can I determine which of them execute loop-index.php?
November 28, 2019 at 10:38 am in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1160896>> The code for min-height was provided by RevSlider (https://kriesi.at/support/topic/revolution-slider-9/#post-1118183).
I read that post. It looks like the code was provided by a used named ‘Zacc,’ who claimed he received it from Slider Revolution. It doesn’t look like you ever actually communicated with Slider Rev devs. Or am I misunderstanding something there?
The bottom line is that this
min-height
line of code exists in the Enfold code base. So ultimately, Enfold is responsible for understanding what it does, and fixing any issues it causes. Wouldn’t you agree?I guess the ultimate question is this. It’s clear that code in the Enfold theme is causing a problem on my site (and perhaps others). Do you have any plans to fix it? I don’t think I’m being unreasonable to expect you to address it. If you explicitly tell me you have no plans to fix it, then there’s not too much I can do. But at least tell me, so I can move forward with an alternative solution.
Thanks.
>> We do understand you’re inquiry. The post_title in that modification refers to the title attribute of the featured image, not the title of the actual post.
OK my mistake–I was a bit hasty. You are correct.
>> It’s also used in the archive.php template.
OK thanks. So any page that has ‘Archives’ as the value for ‘Template’ (example) would execute loop-index.php. Am I understanding that correctly?
November 27, 2019 at 4:51 pm in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1160696>> The fix provided by Slider Revolution team was given us by another user
I’m confused–was the PHP code given to you by one of the Slider Rev developers? Or by an Enfold user?
>> As you are a customer of them best would be to open a support ticket there so they can check your sliders and find the reason why the provided fix is not working in your case and how we can get the right heights for your situation to set CSS properly.
I already opened a ticket with them. They said the min-height is being added by the Enfold code base, so therefore they cannot do anything about it. And that seems pretty logical to me.
>> I have no idea how to use this slider and we do not have any connection to the RevSlider Team.
Code from the Enfold theme–specifically the code adding the min-height–is causing an issue here. Wouldn’t you agree?
OK I added a 1/1 layout element, and inside, added an image element. The image is 1900 px wide. But it does not stretch full screen (screenshots). Is there a way to ensure it displays full screen, at all screen widths, *without* adding custom CSS? i.e. does the page builder have any options to ensure this image stretches full width?
OK thanks for that, but I don’t think I clearly explained my desired result. Earlier I showed you a screenshot of what I want on the front-end. I want to clarify that in that screenshot, the entire top panel is simply one single image. In other words, the horse, plus the “50% OFF” text, plus the “BE PART OF THE CHANGE” text are all actually just one single image–the image is baked in to the text. I don’t need to display a separate text box element for that content. So how does that change things? That makes things easier–correct? It sounds like I can insert a single 1/1 layout element into the color section, and insert the image into the element. Does that sound accurate? If so, what steps would I have to take (if any) to ensure that 1/1 layout element is full-width?
Thanks!
>> what is wrong on having it this way? in other words: what is the benefit of having the whole thing in one section.
The benefit of having all content contained in a single element is that I can easily hide all content by assigning the element a custom id/class, then adding custom CSS like:
#my-custom-id { display: none; }
I realize I can accomplish the same thing by assigning the same custom class to two different elements, and that may be my fall back. But the goal of this exercise is to train non-technical staff how to carry out this process in the future. So I’d like to keep this as simple as possible.
>> see here a little tutorial: https://webers-testseite.de/multiple-background-images/
>> You have to have the horse as cutoff png file.
>> but you then have the problem on responsive case with the not growing half part at the bottom – so the text has no place to be in there – and it grows then to the top into the other half.I see that, but as you mentioned, it is has issues at lower screen width, so I’m not sure it is viable.
Inside a color section, is it possible to add an element–perhaps an image element–that can display a full-width image? If so, might that be a viable approach? That way, inside a single color section I could display that full-width image, plus the header/text/button elements.
Well you’re still not exactly understanding what I want. I don’t want to insert the post title–I want to insert the ‘title’ attribute for the image in-question. But no worries–I have enough so that I can move forward with a solution on my own. Thanks for the help. I have one last question though. I am going to copy the file /includes/loop-index.php to my child theme, and make edits to it. Just so I know, other than individual blog posts, what other pages execute this file (loop-index.php)?
Thanks.
OK. So after adding the custom code to functions.php, what exactly should I do? Can you list the steps I should execut, what output I should expect to see (and where), and what kind of analysis I should carry out?
November 26, 2019 at 11:58 am in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1160270>> the minimum height is added directly in the config-templatebuilder > aviashortcodes > slideshow_revolution.php file, around line 149. It was provided by the revolution slider team to a fix an issue on v6.0.
OK. I understand that the code was given to you by the Slider Revolution team to fix a particular issue. But would you agree that as a side effect it is also causing a separate issue–namely, the issue I have raised in this ticket?
Is there any way I can speak with Guenter directly? It might make this ticket come to a resolution more quickly.
>> Did you add any custom shortcodes in the page using a text or code block?
I don’t see any code blocks on the page. And I looked through all the text blocks and don’t see any shortcodes added.
>> If so, adding the following filter in the functions.php file might help.
Can you describe what exactly that code will do? I see in the header it indicates:
>> * Allow to force execution of shortcodes e.g. for plugins who call shortcode via an ajax call.
>> * Enfold uses this to execute the shortcode for modal popup preview in backendI’m not sure what that means. Does this mean that after I add this code to my site, a modal window will display when I load the ‘edit page’ screen for my home page?
>> Looks like the tags are within the news widget. Did you add that widget in the page?
No I did not.
>> Please try to clone the local site on a live domain so that we can actually check the issue.
Unfortunately I cannot do this. The site does existing on my online server. But this issue is not present there–the issue is present only on my local site for some reason.
>> The builder uses shortcodes, so you can’t edit the markup there directly, unless you added the html tags manually using a text or code block element.
OK too bad. So are the shortcodes generating incorrectly structured HTML? If so, how and why?
November 23, 2019 at 2:56 pm in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1159418>> you’ll see the inline style with the height property and the value is the same as the minimum height of the avia-revolutionslider container.
OK. But my question is solely about the min-height on the avia-revolutionslider container.
>> I’ll ask one of the developers to check the thread because I can’t find any scripts from the theme that applies the height to the containers.
Thank you, that would be very helpful.
>> Again, you can always use css to adjust the height of slider on mobile.
Again, I realize that, thank you. But I’m trying to understand why the page builder is adding a min-height to this element.
OK thanks for confirming. We can consider this resolved.
A competing page builder has an element similar to your MailChimp Signup element (screenshot). In that screenshot, you can see that page builder allows me to add a ‘tag’ to the element. What that does is, whenever a visitor to my site submits this form, a new contact is automatically created in MailChimp, and at the same time, the same ‘tag’ is automatically applied to that contact. I am wondering if your page builder allows me to do the same.
November 19, 2019 at 12:10 pm in reply to: Latest News widget — how to prevent time stamps from rendering? #1158116OK thanks for confirming. I’ll set the variable to
false
then. We can consider this resolved.>> He might not respond immediately, so you might wait for a while.
OK. Can you give me an estimate? Are you talking about weeks, months, years? I paid for support, and just want some questions answered.
>> Again, if all you want to do is remove the title,
If you read what I’ve already written in this post, I’ve explained that removing the title is not all I want to do.
November 19, 2019 at 8:32 am in reply to: Page builder's min-height seems to be causing problems #1158045I appreciate your help. But I’d really prefer it if you directly answered my questions–it will really help me understand the situation and resolve the issue. If we could just backup and proceed slowly, I would very much appreciate it:
>> The minimum height property is probably added automatically by the slider because it’s not from the theme.
As a test, I created two pages, one using Avia page builder and one using classic editor. To each I added the same Slider Revolution slider:
https://wordpress-dev.feedxl.com/themepunch-original/ is created without Avia page builder. It does not have any min-height added to any element.
https://wordpress-dev.feedxl.com/themepunch/ is created with the Avia page builder. Its element div#revolutionslider_1 has a min-height of 901px.1. Why does using the Avia page builder add a min-height?
>> And if you noticed the actual revolution slider wrapper’s height property value is the same as the value of the minimum height, so it’s possible that the slider applies it on both the wrapper and its parent container.
On my home page (https://feedxl.com/), the min-height CSS property is applied only to div#revolutionslider_1, and not to div#rev_slider_2_1_forcefullwidth (screenshots).
2. Do you see the same thing on your end?
I have numbered each of my questions. When you answer a question, for clarity, can you please indicate which question number you are answering? If you do not know the answer to a question, please just say, “I don’t know.”
Thanks.
OK I ran the shortcode parser repair. After updating the page, it indicated
>> 0 warning(s), 5 error(s), 0 fatal error(s) were detected parsing the shortcodes. Necessary changes were applied to fix all found problems
But when I checked my HTML, the issue was still present. What can I do now to troubleshoot?
When I used that tool to check for unclosed tags, and entered the full HTML source code of the page, it found several unclosed tags:
Line 743: <li class="news-content post-format-standard"> Line 743: <a class='news-link' title='Is Forage All a Horse Needs?' href='https://feedxldev.local/is-forage-all-a-horse-needs/'> Line 743: <span class='news-thumb '> Line 743: <a class='news-link' title='Don’t Forget the Milk!' href='https://feedxldev.local/dont-forget-the-milk/'> Line 743: <a class='news-link' title='How to Make Sense of Pasture Analysis Results' href='https://feedxldev.local/how-to-make-sense-of-pasture-analysis-results/'> Line 959: <form action="https://feedxldev.local/" method="get" id="adminbarsearch"> Line 959: <a class='ab-item' aria-haspopup="true" href='https://feedxldev.local/wp-admin/profile.php'>
Do you think I should try to fix each of these? If so, how–how can I properly edit the HTML source code of this page? Do I have to first switch to ‘Default Editor’ and edit the source code via the text editor? Or can I edit the HTML source code from within the Avia page builder?
>> We will tag one of our developers to check the thread
Please do so. I would like to speak with a developer as soon as I can. It has been 16 days now, and there has been zero movement on this issue :-(
Thanks.
November 16, 2019 at 6:37 am in reply to: Latest News widget — how to prevent time stamps from rendering? #1157413>> So this means this is solved?
I wouldn’t say this issue is solved. I can say that PHP code I added had the desired result on the front-end. But I’m still trying to understand the code I added, and why it worked. It’s bad practice to add ‘black box’ code that does what you want, without understanding why or how it works.
In the code you gave me, you set
$time_format = get_option( '' );
Why not instead set
$time_format = false;
Doesn’t that accomplish the same thing?
>> We are not really sure about the actual logic behind it,
Then who is? Can I speak with that person? Or can you pass along my questions to that person? I asked you these questions in my previous message, but you ignored them :-( This ticket is nearly two weeks old now, and there still hasn’t been much movement. If I could speak with someone who is actually familiar with the code and the logic behind it, it would speed things up.

On my home page (https://feedxl.com/), the
min-height
CSS property is applied only to div#revolutionslider_1, and not to div#rev_slider_2_1_forcefullwidth (screenshots). Are you seeing otherwise?Thanks.
