Laughing at myself… why didn’t I think of that?!? Ha ha thank you, that’s great!!!
Have a good night.I read your note and went running over to theme options… I don’t see an “enable lazy load” box – where can I find it?
The “show a preloader when opening a page on your site” is different than lazy loading, which loads a page immediately that a user can see without loading the elements “below the fold”… then it loads them as the user scrolls down. This reduces initial page load time.
You probably already know this…but just in case others are reading and wondering what in the world lazy loading is.
If there’s an ability to enable it for the theme that would be great, thanks!
Ha! Perhaps my web hosting service was just having a bad day. There is still a delay when maps loads but it’s not as bad as the first day I entered the API key.
I do think “lazy load” is something the developers should consider to reduce impact to page speed times. Page speed is becoming more and more important both from a user experience and a SEO ranking perspective so I hope that’s something the devs are thinking about as they further enhance this wonderful theme.
Thank you again
Hi Yigit,
When I posted that, I was running 3.7 but then updated 3.7.1 when it came out. I didn’t see a change version / log in the “what’s new” post so I’m not sure what 3.7.1 fixed…. it does indeed seem better than in 3.7….was that why 3.7.1 was released?Thanks!!

PS I just renewed another 6 months of support with you guys…. thanks for everything.
Preview mode shows the entire article…but once you post it, your blog page will show just the excerpt prior to the “read more” tag.. at least that’s my experience.
Well gee thanks guys, I had never noticed that “annoying gap” before but now I can’t stop looking at it!
:)
Vinay, nevermind above, I added the code to functions.php and see that it will indeed allow me to select this only on certain pages / elements.
I don’t know css at all so it’s just like looking at letters to me, so forgive my continued questions… I’m a newbie on this.
In the Enfold link / tutorial from Yigit it says to give the custom class a special name prefixed with initials, so are we creating two custom classes, one called “.only_mobile” and one called “.only_desktop”?
And then once I add the code to the custom css file, how do I make the element display only on mobile? Do I just type in “.only_mobile” in the custom css class field of the element?
Thanks!!!!!
Thank you, Vinay! And this will allow me to only do this on one page of my site with one element, not the entire site, correct?
Dear Yigit, that also works… to leave it blank, although it gives this scary error on the API console about any domain being able to use the key, probably a bigger issue for keys that are paid. (I wonder if down the road Google plans to charge for use of their mapping service…. hmm… interesting change they have made that would enable that.)
Main production site is now working with domain field as blank…. I think this one is solved. Thank you for your help and hope this thread helps someone else who makes the same mistake I did.
Yigit see response above… I had not entered my website with the wildcard… working fine now that I have updated API key with wildcard (*)… thanks!!!
Sorry to trouble…
I figured this out!
On the google site, the website needs to be entered with the wildcard so that every page on the website works…
so for example, http://www.thomashenthorne.com will cause crash… but http://www.thomashenthorne.com/* will make all pages on website use API key.
Does that make sense? You might want to modify instructions in case others make the same mistake.. you have to enter your website with a slash and the “*” wildcard to enable API key on all pages of site.
I’m going to give you admin credentials for my staging site so you can perhaps see what’s going on there… thanks!
My dear Yigit… you may have missed this in my original post… but that’s exactly the post I followed / steps I followed…
I input the API key into the staging site, cleared browser / flushed cache, and problem exists….. API Key is already input but that did not solve problem on staging site.
So………. what next? ;)
I am seeing all these threads about Google maps not working… it’s still working on my site, but based on these threads, should I expect it to break soon? I’m worried….
Agreed. I hate to add another plugin to my site and further slow it down, but looks like I will have to do so.
Thank you Yigit!!!
So if I want to turn off all the titles on all the sliders I just use your original code in my original post, right? I don’t ever want to have text slide titles / alt tags popup over the photos…. not sure why anyone would? But just want to make sure I am clear before I start making mods to my site.
Now about that Mailchimp…. ;)
Thanks!!!
Rob
Weeks later and no action… I’ve deleted admin account and guess I’ll just use the mailchimp plugin since the Enfold integration is not working for me and other users. Too bad. If you decide you want to work on this and would like to use my staging site to investigate why it’s not working for me and other users please let me know.
Rob
I offered to provide resources to help you guys fix this on June 16th…. I’m not crazy about having my admin credentials / mailchimp login etc out there indefinitely. Is this in the queue? I assume this is something you want to address since its affecting multiple users.
Thanks!
HI Josue,
After I posted this I remembered that you guys like us to create our own support threads and not tag on to others, so I created one here with admin credentials:https://kriesi.at/support/topic/mailchimp-integration-is-not-working-lets-fix-this/#post-650713
I am happy to provide my resources and time to help solve this problem / bug.
Thanks!
I worked on this a little more after I posted, and I added:
.sidebar_right.sidebar {
text-align: center;
}This aligns the text in the sidebar to the center…but all the content is still pressed up against the right side of the sidebar.
I’m guessing this has something to do with padding / margins that I need to change?Thanks!
Live example:
http://www.thomashenthorne.com/marin-real-estate-blog/Trying to attach / post link to photo since above didn’t seem to work:
Hey… anyone? I volunteered to help provide resources to solve this bug which is affecting multiple users…. Is one of the support team members going to take this on? I realize it will take some time but I think it’s important. I don’t want to just have passwords and login rights out there indefinitely so would like to know someone is going to take this on. I’m now on page 10 of the support thread….
Thanks
That is disappointing. Enfold team, do you want me to create a new support thread or continue to tag onto this thread since I am having the same issue?
I just tried setting up Mailchimp for the first time today. The first time I entered the subscription info in the box using the widget, it seemed like it was working, but I never received a confirmation email of my subscription, and that email address never showed up in my Mailchimp mailing list. So I tried again and got the message that I was already subscribed. I then turned “capcha notification” off in Mailchimp settings thinking maybe the capcha was causing an issue, but I kept getting the same message.
I then created a new API key and loaded that into Enfold, thinking that might reset things. Still the same error. The regular Mailchimp URL to add to my mailing list works fine so this is DEFINITELY an issue with Enfold and not Mailchimp…they are not going to provide any support since their forms work fine.
I really want this to work as the theme integration looks great and is critical. Can you guys take another look at this since multiple users are having this exact same issue?
Thanks!!!!
