Hi Yigit,
Yes I did, I was just about to post that!
I changed .menu to .sub-menu and it worked. I assume that’s the correct way?
One further question – I wanted to space out the right arrow from the sub-menu title and so am using this:
content: '\00A0\00A0\00A0\00A0\00A0\00A0\00A0\00A0>'However, depending on the sub-menu title length, the arrows are not vertically aligned with this method. as you have seen.
Is there a way to have the right arrows lined up vertically under each other on the right side of the sub-menu li container e.g. remove the spaces and use float: right or similar?
@Yigit – I got an email from you answering this but it has not updated here in my original post:

Post Link: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-display-an-arrow-in-a-sub-menu-to-indicate-a-further-sub-level-exists/#post-633080”That solution works for the sub-levels but it also puts the ‘ >’ on the top level main menu elements – is there a way to NOT have the right arrow on the main menu but only on the sub-menu/levels?
This problem is not about Enfold theme customisation per se, it’s about which SQL table and column/element Enfold uses to set “Don’t display image on single post” on a post. I was looking for some help to quickly identify this, but as that was not forthcoming I had to spend a day working it out and I have now modified the SQL database myself via phpMyAdmin to fix the problem. :-)
So you can now close this issue.
@Yigit: well, you live and learn… :-)
I’d seen classes used without a space in previous answers here but didn’t understand why before.
Are there any rules as to when I’d need to specify a theme element like .av-special-heading as well as the Custom Class or is it dependent on the HTML element and what CSS property I’m trying to add or modify and so just a matter of trial and error until something works?
If an element is purely a heading e.g. <h2>This Is My Section Heading</h2>, then it displays using the Main Content Heading Color (red).
If an element is heading with an embedded link, then the Primary Color should be used, e.g.
<h3> <a title="All the Fun of the May Fair" href="http://dev.henleyherald.com/2014/05/06/...">All the Fun of the May Fair</a> </h3>This needs to display using the Primary Color (blue) because the heading is actually a link, and links display using the Primary Color.
You can see an example on this page: http://dev.henleyherald.com/
Top Stories is an H2 shown using Main Content Heading Color, red, as it should be. It is not a link to anywhere, just a heading.
The “Duck Diving Mayor…” H3 heading under it is also a link to a post and so should use the Primary Color (blue). Same for all other headings displayed via Blog Posts.
Thanks Yigit, looks OK now.
For future reference / my education… can you explain why it doesn’t need the .av-special-heading class adding? I think I maybe misunderstand how the Custom CSS Class works – I use it in some places and I have to specify an additional class to target an element, yet in other places I don’t. Just trying to save posting future support questions if I can!
I understand it’s advanced and I can probably do the database update but I need some help please to know which table and parameter to alter – surely it’s documented somewhere where “Don’t display image on single post” is stored? That’s all I need.
Thanks, but that turns them off everywhere – how would I target all pages with this, but not posts?
Or more specifically it’s the Blog Posts section on a page (I’m using single author, small preview pic in Blog Layout), and/or the individual post summaries, where I want to switch the meta off.
Website link in private content, it’s a test/development site so there’s lots of ‘work in progress’ and there’s no home page at present, but you can see the main menu via the sub-page link provided.
Setting the left command above to 20% appears to centre the menu on a 1920px screen, not -50%, but it doesn’t work as screen sizes reduce. Also, acting on .avia-menu.av-main-nav-wrap means the search icon just goes to the right so I’m not sure this will work anyway because it’s just the menu elements within that container that need changing.
You’ll see from the CSS file I tried
.menu_pad_left { padding-left: 17%; }and added that class to the first menu element, but again this fails: the 17% needs to be reduced with media queries as screen sizes reduce.
I thought so, but I’ve done a bit of PHP & CSS customisation in the past, could you offer some pointers as to how I might do this e.g. which code modules I’d need to modify, and I’ll have a look at it myself. Thanks.
A recently completed project for an art gallery using Enfold – Jack’s Gallery
I posted earlier in this thread and was advised on December 2nd to upgrade manually from 3.3.2 to 3.4.6, which I did. I was told that auto-update would work next time there was an update.
3.4.7 was released on December 18th but Theme Update is still telling me today “No Updates available. You are running the latest version! (3.4.6)” and manual check says the same.
So this auto update process is still not fixed but as per @Maximus_ I guess you know that…
I have updated Transient Cleaner to 1.3.1 and re-run both Clear Expired Transients and Remove All Transients functions.
Theme Update still says “You are running the latest version! (3.3.2)”. A manual check tells me “Your themes are all up-to-date.”
So it still does not work. The login requested by Rikard is still active for someone to investigate further.
Login details below. I’ve only got Transient Cleaner plugin installed at present but I did try Transient Manager as well.
I’ve tried both Transient Cleaner and Transient Manager plugins and neither deletes the update_themes transient object – is this because the plugins (I think) only delete “expired” transients but update_themes is set as ‘Does not expire’ hence it does not get removed?
Bottom line is Theme Update is telling me no updates are available but I am running 3.3.2 and want to upgrade. And I know I can do it manually via FTP but I’m trying to get this ‘auto update’ of Enfold feature working given it’s part of the theme…
NB. Check Manually doesn’t work either.
@Kriesi: re. “if its possible for us to offer free ongoing support” – I’m pretty certain from re-reading the notes posted by Envato staff that you will be able to offer free ongoing support to those who purchased before Sept 1. Quite how you will manage to differentiate between pre- and post-Sept 1 purchasers in terms of allowing us to post will, I’m sure, be an interesting challenge, one that I’m sure you could do without… we’ll wait and see how this works out.
A personal view is that what Envato have done for pre-Sept 1 purchases is illegal in terms of the sale of goods: they can change the terms for all new purchases but if an item was sold with certain conditions (like free lifetime support) then those conditions apply forever – they cannot alter the original terms of purchase, i.e. you (Kriesi) offered free lifetime support when I bought Enfold a few months ago, so those terms must always apply.
Well I just found these comments from an Envato person (andrewfreeman) in the comments to Elliott’s thread.
“If you bought the item before Sept 1, then you’re entitled to whatever support the author promised at the time.”
“To be clear we are absolutely not restricting support for purchases made with lifetime/unlimited support … [and] you should work with the author(s) to have this honoured. They have access to your purchase date and will be best placed to verify your entitlement.”
An FAQ then contradicts these statements by saying:
“If the item advertised support for more than 6 months, those items will be supported for 6 months after September 1st.So from September 1st there will still be another 6 months for buyers who have purchased before.”
But it then contradicts itself again by continuing:
“After that if there are pre-policy buyers who still want support extended further and if the author agrees, then that can happen too.”Envato are really screwing this up and making it confusing but my take is that it appears as if the new rules only apply on new purchases after Sept 1, and providing Kriesi listed lifetime/unlimited support as part of the purchase deal before this date, then lifetime support can continue for “pre-policy” buyers (such as me) if we ask for it and Kriesi agrees. I hope… :-)
Your thoughts?
“As of today the new envato support policy is in effect with 6 months of support instead of lifetime.”
@Kriesi – I know I bought the theme via Envato but what right have they got to dictate to you whether you offer lifetime support or not, on a website/domain that you (I assume) own and manage? What’s that got to do with Envato? I’ve only just switched to Enfold because of poor support on another theme, and a big part of switching was reading and seeing the excellent level of support you and the moderators provide on here.Can you explain the background and what’s going on?
Hi,
OK, I can see that now, thanks. It appears that a color section can only be full width, i.e. you can’t add 2 x 1/2 Layout Elements to a page then add a color section inside only one of those elements – correct?
Also, you can add other elements inside color but are there any restrictions e.g. elements that can’t be added to a color section?
Finally, is there a list of what page elements have ‘Alternate Background color’ applied to them in the General Styling sections of Logo Area, Main Content and Alternate Content? It just says ‘menu hover, tables etc’ – I wondered what else is in the ‘etc’.
Hi,
Take this as the starting point on a normal PC screen: http://imgur.com/OjX1W1b (the contact info is not quite right-aligned under/with the Facebook icon in this image, but that’s where I want it).
As the screen size reduces I would use a sequence of @media screen and (max-width: 989px) statements at various max-widths to progressively reduce the font-size of h4 (Jack’s Gallery), h5 (Jack Vettirano…) and .hdr-contact-txt (contact info) so that both text boxes stayed at the same line/level in the header for as long as possible.
I’ve added a padding-top:50px to hdr-titles of Elliott’s CSS (and as #484650, the transform would be removed although I’ve left it live for now). At some screen size I would then reduce this padding-top to shift that box up and bring hdr-contact underneath it e.g. http://imgur.com/8KuzsbK. The hdr-contact CSS for this would be
float: none;
left: 50%;
text-align: center;
top: 100px;I usually design down to a 320px screen so I’d continue to reduce font size as needed with both boxes ‘stacked’ as per the second image, perhaps having to switch one off at some point. So when the boxes are stacked, I think I’ve got CSS for that.
What I need help with please is:
1. CSS for hdr-contact to get it right aligned under the Facebook icon on normal screens, and to keep it in that position as screen sizes reduce to about 1200px, which is where I think I’ll have to do the first font size reduction.
2. Keep hdr-contact in that right-aligned position until I do the ‘stacking’ (my guess is there’s no change from #1)
Hope that’s clear… :-)
Hi Elliott,
That didn’t work. See the result here:
However, for hdr-titles, if I switch off the transform element in Chrome developer tools it seems to work – do you agree?
But I can’t get hdr-contact to work. Just to clarify I’d like it positioned similar to this: which is about right:400px but a fixed value doesn’t work for different screen sizes. Can you suggest something else?
Zimbo
