Anybody?

Sorry, but it just occurred to me that I didn’t consider the padding of the text cell.

Hence, I increased the height of the image from 500px to 560px to account for the 30px padding at the top and bottom of the text element next to it.

As you can see, this nearly closed the gap, but there’s still a small gap of about 2-3px.

Any ideas of where I’m going wrong here?

Hi there,
I’m sorry that my request wasn’t clear. I’ve attached a screenshot to hopefully help you understand what I’m struggling with.

As you can see, I’m working with your “Grid/Felx Row” layout element.

In the left cell, I have placed the image with the cyclists (954px x 500px).
In the right cell, I have added a text element, the exact dimensions of which I can’t be sure of. Hence I’ve wrapped the text element with <div style=”width: 100%; height: 500px;”> … </div> to give this cell some exact dimensions.

So, here comes the thing. Since both, the image and the text element share the exact some height of 500px, I would naturally assume that the image aligns flush at the bottom with the text element.

Unfortunately, this is not the case. Please see the screenshot. There’s still a sizable gap of about 30-40px. Where am I going wrong here?

I thought that maybe your theme is somehow resizing the image because I can’t be sure of the exact pixel width, but when I take a screenshot of the page and crop the image out of it, it measures exactly 954px x 500px. Can you help?

I think it would be nice to give your “Grid/Flex” row element the option to work with a fixed height to make this process easier.

As always, many thanks for any pointers ….

Thanks Josue,

I figured the formatting out myself by adding the code to my custom.css.

I just thought that I might have missed a way of making this adjustment within the theme’s options. Thanks anyways.

What you didn’t address is how I can eliminate these hideous Post Type Icons.

To me this feature is completely uncalled for. Users would likely understand that (i) if there’s no image, it’s a Standard Post. It won’t require this hideous pencil icon and so forth.

I love working with the Enfold theme because it enables you to create really refined, high end sites and blogs. This feature cheapens the whole theme, as it’s a giveaway for a canned site.

Please let me know how I can eliminate the code for these icons.

Many thanks

Thanks for getting back to me.

My site isn’t live as of yet, so you would need to login to see what I mean.

Either way I have decided to change this page layout anyways and use the LayerSlider instead of a background image in a color section element. Since working with a semitransparent header isn’t possible in connection with the LayerSlider, please consider this post and request as obsolete.

Many thanks any ways.

Thank you Yigit,

I’ve seen the different header options and I’m reasonably familiar with the different settings.

Unfortunately, the glass header settings isn’t really going to work for me in this particular instance, as it’s almost completely transparent as well;thus the effect is nearly the same as working with a complete transparent header.

The issue I’m trying to deal with is design related. I’m working with big background images, which are more or less the focal point of the majority of the pages I’m working on. Below that, I’m working with the post slider to show the latest entries of my blog. The post slider has a white background.

Now, and with that being said, I would love to keep the white header (to frame the background image if you will) but just add a touch of transparency to it, to make the background image shine through. Do you understand what I mean?

Thanks for the quick response Yigit,

I understand how the updating via FTP works. I’m just concerned that this basically equals a complete new install and thus, I would loose all the design choices/definitions I made in the Theme’s Options section on WordPress.

I got the theme a while ago; so I’m working with version 2.4… so checking and uploading the files manually may not be feasible either.

Is this something I’d have to go through every single time there’s update now? Or is there a way to resolve this problem with the automatic update.?

Many thanks
