Hello,
Any updates on the imaging “tearing” issue for the gallery media element?

I found an unrelated website, Zillow.com, which shows image tearing in their search box.

It is very interesting to me that tearing is appearing in a search box.

I don’t know if there is a larger issue of tearing that appears outside of the Enfold theme specifically. I wonder if tearing is appearing on other websites that do Not use Enfold. For these unrelated websites, is tearing appearing in elements beyond the search box element?

It would be good to know what theme or template builder Zillow, if it is WordPress-based, or not. That may lead solutions to the tearing problem for Enfold and to non-Enfold/non-WordPress-based websites. Zillow.com is a well-known website.

It may be helpful to contact Zillow about this to help all people who have websites who have this “tearing” issue. I am still very interesting in identifying the underlying cause or causes of the problem for me and for anyone else who has this problem.

Hello,
This tearing happens for PNG, JPEG, and JPG images/files whenever I insert them into the gallery element. I went back to much older images, JPG, that were ordinary, unmodified JPG pictures/images of scenery, taken from my digital camera from nearly 10 years ago, and inserted them into a new gallery element on a totally different page, and I still saw the tearing.

I wondered if maybe the problem was because the images were art works (instead of ordinary photograph images) or maybe because I was first using PNG images/files and then later JPEG images/files, but PNG, JPEG, and JPG images/files added into the gallery element still produced a gallery of images with this tearing. This tearing problem happens in a gallery element that contained exclusively PNG images, exclusively JPEG images, exclusively JPG images, or any combination of these 3 types of image files.

When viewed in the media library itself, the PNG, JPEG, and JPG files look totally fine, no problem, so the file themselves seem to not be damaged.

Were you able to reproduce this problem on your own website? I want to know if this is a problem specific to me, or if you or other people have been able to reproduce this problem. Knowing this would be helpful in finding out what is causing the problem I am having.

I have not seen this tearing problem when my art work images/files – JPEG or PNG – when using masonry gallery. But masonry gallery is not how I wish to present my images. I want my images, ideally, to be in some type of gallery.

I hope that your team will continue looking into what maybe the underlying cause(s). In the meantime, I will use either: (1) a gallery that I create with a code block using CSS, HTML, and Javascript, or (2) easy slider. Thank you for your teams great persistence with this, but please do keep me updated on anything you may find out about this issue. Many great thanks to you and your team in the meantime with your very kind assistance.

See addendum in Private Content. Thank you.

Hello,
I do not mean cropping of the image. Imagine you have a physical piece of paper and somebody made physical rips in the corners. In other words, the paper is torn in the corners. Imagine this same problem seems to be happening, but with PNG images. This problem only happens when I use PNG images in the gallery element.

This problem does not happen when images are added to an accordion slider This problem does not happen when images are inserted into a easy slider.

When I created a basic gallery using a code block using CSS and HTML, this problem did not happen.

If you look at the images inside my media library, the images show now digital rips/tears at all.

I’ve added an additional screenshot image in my Dropbox with pink arrows pointing to these rips/tears in my PNG images, in addition to the first screenshot image I sent 10 days ago (see Private Content).

The most important part of figuring out this problem is being certain that you are seeing the same Dropbox files that I am talking about. Please look at these 2 screenshot files in my Dropbox.

If you do not look at these 2 screenshot files, then you and I are not talking about the same thing and we are not looking at the same thing.

I also have included this URL for the web page where the problem appears.

Addendum below.

Hello,
I’ve made the account admin.
Thanks.

Update: The digital tear, it seems, also appears on the upper left corners of the images. So, there are digital tears on left and right corners of all of my PNG images when they are within the gallery media element.

Dear Basilis and Kriesi folks,
Any update on my question about search box and “instant results” that show only search results from within blog posts only, versus a global search of my entire website (including the blog) which happens when I hit my computer keyboard’s return button?

Thank you, Ismael. I tested out various mi-width values and found the one that worked well for me. Thank you (and Kriesi) for all of your help with this, much appreciated.

Dear Rikard,
Thank you for your reply. I’ve upgraded you to admin.

For my website, what I want to do is make the text in my logo be aligned with the text within the main body of text.

But I’ll keep experimenting with different margin settings.

I look forward to your reply after you’ve had a chance to look within my website for suggestions on how I may achieve the above goal.
Thanks you.

Dear Kriesi team,
Thank you so very much for your individual and collective efforts in helping me to have a search box that appears on every page of my website when viewed on my mobile phone. I just tested it out after clearing my cache and it works great.

I appreciate all of the hard work and persistence of your team in helping me with the various questions I’ve had. My website is all the better for it. Thank you again,
-Mamie

Hello, Ismael,
I added the code to my functions.php file and I also made the edits to the Quick CSS field also, but still no search box when I visit my website using my mobile phone. When I click on the menu icon, it shows all my menu items, but no search box.

I’m wondering: My website is private, not public. Would that possibly make the search box not appear?
Also, my iPhone is an iPhone 4. Would that also possibly make the search box not appear?

In the meantime, as an alternative, I’ve added a compatible plug-in that creates a search box. I’ve placed that at the footer of my website. But once a solution is found to my missing search box problem, I will delete the plug-in and use the solution that you provide.

Many thanks for your continued efforts in helping me to solve my problem.

Hello,
I went to the functions.php Text file. I did a search and did not find the word, Appearance in it.

I added: add_shortcode(‘avia_search’, ‘get_search_form’);
[avia_search]
as the last two lines of text in that file and saved that file with these edits in it.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding the last part of your reply. When the Appearance>Menus asks for a URL, does it mean to add a website address, or am I looking in the wrong place?

Thank you, Yigit! That works.

Hi, Yigit-
Thank you and the Kriesi team for all of your diligent efforts. This last Quick CSS fixed it. Thank you all again.
