  • in reply to: Our Site Is Broken After Enfold Update #942061

    Everything appears to be working now. Thanks.

    in reply to: Our Site Is Broken After Enfold Update #926203

    The site was restored and is somehow now working. I have no idea why. I made one change. I updated the PHP handler from 5.x to 7.0. Maybe that did it. I don’t know.

    I don’t recall the exact error message but it was something about a PHP error on line 6. Similar to what other’s are experiencing.

    P.S. to set you up with a temporary admin account I will need an email address. Send me your email and I’ll create an admin account for you.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Latest Enfold Update Causing Error on Product Pages #925362

    Yup. Same problem on our site too. Error on line 6. Completely hosed. Can’t even access the admin panel. I am very leary of uninstalling Enfold. Won’t that delete all our settings?!?

    Dear Enfold. Please do some usability studies in the future. It only makes sense AFTER you know how to do it.

    Guys. This is a serious problem for me. I downloaded the demo and now we can’t get rid of it!!!!

    Client is pissed. You have submenus like Blak Pages (nice spelling BTW). Do something about this. You are seriously damaging my credibility for recommending your theme.

    Are you serious? Please tell me that was a joke.

    If not it’s the stupidest post ever!

    in reply to: Adding the Google Tag Manager code permanently #680426

    Thanks. I will call you “Ismael.”

    Just FYI, I had a very bad experience last weekend. I was using a GTM WordPress plugin that totally hosed our site. It had been working fine, for about a year, until I got a call that the client’s web site was down. I checked and sure enough…At first I had no idea what it was then I looked at the error log and traced it to this plugin (I prefer not to say it’s name). I have limited time to debug such arcane things but I suspect it was related to the most recent WP update or the most recent Theme update. Not pointing fingers, just saying it was VERY painful. <panic>I could not login as the Admin to delete the plugin</panic>Eventually I uninstalled the plugin and contacted the developer who gave me a long workaround. But I can’t have that kind of thing happening on a client site.

    I think I will try Ismael’s suggestion above.

    in reply to: Google Analytics Enhanced Link Attribution #584931

    The way the DOM is structured the menu items in the header HAVE have unique element ids, but, only at the li level, the order list level. If you open the dev console you can see what I’m talking about.

    Buttons and other media elements OTOH do not seem to have unique IDs. I saw the example above of IDs added to text links with HTML. But I’m not sure how that works with say a button. And also not sure if I add the element ID to a button that it will persist through Enfold updates? If not, then it’s simply too much maintenance. and not worth the trouble.

    Let me make this clear(er) with a concrete example. I have a Contact page and two links on the same page that link to the Contact page. One link is in the header menu (has unique ID). The other link is in a CTA lower down the page (does not have a unique ID). I am thinking about using enhanced link attribution to tell GA which link the user clicked to go to the contact page. But unless I have a unique ID on the CTA button then there is no point in implementing ELA because it will yield no additional information. Make sense?

    in reply to: Google Analytics Enhanced Link Attribution #582588

    I’m fiddling around with enhanced link attribution as well. Based on the way Enfold is coded the menu items in the header do not have unique element ids, but, the <li> does.

    `id=”menu-item-5123″ class=”menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-has-children menu-item-mega-parent menu-item-top-level menu-item-top-level-2″>
    <a href=”http://www.xxxxx.com/products/”><span class=”avia-bullet”></span><span class=”avia-menu-text”>Products</span><span class=”avia-menu-fx”><span class=”avia-arrow-wrap”><span class=”avia-arrow”></span></span></span>`

    Button classes however do not appear to have element ids as shown below:

    `<div class=”avia-button-wrap avia-button-center avia-builder-el-22 avia-builder-el-no-sibling “>
    <a href=”http://www.xxxxx.com/products/cps/”><span class=”avia_button_icon avia_button_icon_left ” aria-hidden=”true” data-av_icon=”” data-av_iconfont=”fontello”></span><span class=”avia_iconbox_title”>Browse Products</span>
    </a>
    </div>`

    I have only checked these two elements. But if there’s no unique element for things like buttons, and, if for the header all I will get in my GA report is something like menu-item-5123 (I suspect) then it doesn’t seem all that useful. I’m wondering if it’s even worth implementing.

    Thoughts?

    in reply to: Where goes Google Tag Manager code? #569200

    Can I paste this code into a Google Analytics Tracking Code from Enfold Options theme?

    No, you cannot. It may work but that’s not best practice. The GTM code snippet needs to go directly below the opening <body> tag. Either modify header.php in a child theme, or, use a WP GTM plugin. I did the latter and no issues so far. But caveat developer.

    Also, if you are using GTM to load GA, which you should, remove all other references to your GA tracking ID from the page.

    in reply to: ROBOTS.TXT Discussion #516718

    P.P.S To be on the safe side I unchecked the NOINDEX / NOFOLLOW in AIOSEO. Figure I can live with a few indexed .js pages rather than hurt my SEO. But I did add a disallow for wp-content in robots. Opinions?

    in reply to: Different Colors On Table Column Headers #298482

    That worked splendidly! You guys are awesome!

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Different Colors On Table Column Headers #297926

    Hey Ismael,

    Thanks in advance for the offer. Yes, basically I want to change the background color and text color of the cells in the pricing row. I have a CSS now that will do the entire row, but I want to change the individual cells in each column. If you could show me how to use the pseudo selectors that would be great!

    So for example:

      Pricing Row, Col 1: BG Bronze, Text White
      Pricing Row, Col 1: BG Silver, Text Black
      Pricing Row, Col 1: BG Gold, Text White

    Thanks,
    Frank

    Hey!

    Well heck, you’re right. I checked it a few hours ago after your last post and the duplicate title was still showing up, but now it does appear to be resolved. Caching issue?

    In any case it’s fixed now, so you can close this thread.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Cannot Vertically Center Pricing Row #297502

    Good catch. I appreciate the code review. Changes made and all appears to work fine.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Cannot Vertically Center Pricing Row #297486

    Hi,

    I was able to solve the problem so you can close this. I was using h3 in the pricing row, which has a default 8px bottom margin (that’s what was causing the offset). I added 8px to the top margin and the problem was solved. But is this the best way to solve the problem, or is the solution sloppy? it works in any case…

    
    /* 
     * Vertically centers pricing row text on the service plans tables
     */
    
    .pfc-sp-table .avia-pricing-row, h3 { 
      text-align:center;
      vertical-align: middle; 
      margin-top: 8px;
      margin-bottom: 8px;
    }
    
    in reply to: Blog Breadcrumbs Displaying Post Title Twice #297414

    Hi Ismael, et al,

    As I recall when Enfold posted the release with the Advanced Layout Editor, people were having trouble with the Blog page. The instructions from Enfold were to leave the field “where do you want to display the Blog?” blank, which I did. And it worked. So I didn’t forget. That was deliberate.

    But it’s a moot point, because I tried leaving the Enfold display Blog field blank and I also tried changing it to “Blog” and the duplicate titles show up either way in the Chrome browser.

    A very similar problem emerged with the Ninja Forms plugin a while back. You gave me a PHP fix, but then subsequent to that fix you put out another update which seemed to fix the problem. But this isn’t related to a plugin because I disabled the plugins and the problem doesn’t go away.

    I’ve seen other people on this forum with similar problems. One person was using Woo Commerce as I recall, and there was a PHP workaround. I think this is more generic. As I said previously, the only workaround I have at the moment is simply to turn breadcrumbs OFF in the post.

    If you have a quick little PHP fix for functions.php I’d be happy to try it out.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    I was impressed. And based on the nature of the art I’m going to reach out with a link: https://www.youtube.com/user/tednottingham.

    Hey Enfoldians! Here is my latest website. The client loves it and I received kudos from one of the largest commercial floor care equipment makers. Great product, great support, and great user community. I couldn’t have done it without you guys. Enfold rocks!

    http://www.premierfloorcare.com/

    It works! Wish I could code like that.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    Thanks for that code snippet. But unfortunately that didn’t work. I got a white screen!

    Frank

    Sweet! I had the same problem and that worked like a charm.

    Thanks Ismael!

    Thanks! My issue is closed.

    in reply to: Enfold > button in sidebar #263706

    I’m having the same problem. I have two texts in a sidebar and default padding seems to be around 50px. Is there a CSS to decrease the padding?

    <section id="text-5" class="widget clearfix widget_text"><h3 class="widgettitle">TITLE 1</h3>
    <div class="textwidget"><p>
    STUFF....
    </div>
    </section>
    <section id="text-6" class="widget clearfix widget_text"><h3 class="widgettitle">TITLE 2</h3>
    <div class="textwidget"><p>
    STUFF....
    </div>
    </section>

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Enfold and Formidable Pro not cooperating #261077

    Ismael’s workaround worked for me with Ninja Forms. I was having the same problem and was using this workaround for textboxes, but I decided to go whole hog and do all the inputs as he suggested. We’ll see if it causes problems down the line but for now it’s working.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    in reply to: Custom.css not Overriding Base.css #261032

    I was having the exact same problem. The above works. Would be nice to dial this down a bit to just the element in question. This overrides the styling in my Enfold input fields, which I kind of liked. A more subtle solution would be nice but I tried entering this in the NF CSS code and it didn’t work.

    I emailed James who is the author of the NF Styling plugin. If I hear back I’ll let you know.

    Ohhhhh, Smack. So that’s why. Duh. I didn’t think of that.
