That worked, thanks Ismael!!!

Hi Vinay!

I put the site in a test area (URL below in private content) and removed all IP blocks for this site from IIS. Hopefully you guys will now be able to access the site. Also in the private content below is a direct URL of a screen shot from the old site of what the check availability “badge” is supposed to look like.

An interesting note: I continued working on the site and noticed that, on other pages without the full width easy slider, the check availability badge sticks out below the full width submenu and does actually overlap the main content area below. So it appears that it’s just the full width elements that the badge won’t overlap like it’s supposed to. You can see this behavior by clicking Amenities & Info up in the menu.

Again I appreciate your help with this issue.

Thanks!

Scott

Sorry, I have a bunch of overseas IPs blocked because of break in attempts. Can’t have that on my development box, right? If you can tell me the IP(s) from which you’re trying to access these URLs, I can see if I can unblock a small chunk.

Thanks!

Sorry it took so long for me to respond. Actually I need the full width submenu to go mobile at anything less than 980px screen width. Anything over that, and it should be the normal menu. Just so you know, in Theme Options, Header, Mobile Menu tab, I do have it set to go mobile for both tablets and smartphones, but that obviously applies only to the main header menu, not to full width submenus (but it probably should).

The URL is on my development box, so I’ll post it in the private content area below.

I must say, guys, I’m a bit disappointed. Up to this point, Enfold support has been great. Please, I’m not asking you to debug the plugin. I’m just asking for information on the Enfold mechanisms involved in making the header transparent. I’m guessing you use jQuery, right? Can’t you please tell me the files that are involved and where the transparency is triggered in the code? The problem actually doesn’t happen all the time. When I first started working with the site today it was fine, even with the plugin turned on. It wasn’t until I submitted the form, went to PayPal, then came back to the site that the trouble started. Then if the plugin was activated, the problem happened. If it was off, the header was fine. At this point, I’m wondering if something in the plugin may be interfering with your jQuery code when I get back from PayPal for some reason. I know I need to work with the plugin guy on that, but if you could please tell me what files (and routines?) are involved with header transparency, that would be a great help.

Thank you!

Here’s the thing: When the plugin is turned on, it’s like I set the header back to no transparency in the page’s metabox. I was hoping you could at least tell me where that functionality can be found in the Enfold code so I’d have a chance at solving this. I know you guys don’t know the plugin code, but you do know Enfold code, so you should at least be able to tell me where in the code header transparency is turned on, can’t you?

Thanks, Elliott. I think I’d already found that post at one point. Now I’ve saved the code. Obviously it still would be much quicker and easier for Enfold users if that body font’s drop down had a larger selection. Of course you wouldn’t want all the script fonts in that drop down, but the other serif and sans serif fonts probably should be in there. At any rate I’ll just do the more-or-less manual registration thing until they show up there in a future release.

Thanks!

Duh. Don’t know what I saw when I read that the first time. For some reason I thought it wouldn’t show the submenu items at all if that box was checked. Sorry, severe brain fade….

Sure, here’s the direct URL. It’s on my development box right now, so I’m putting it in the private content section.

Hi Elliott!

Thanks for the reply. So how do you guys do it now, with jQuery? Could you point me toward the current code? Perhaps I could tweak it? I know I’d need to find a way to make the tweaks persist through theme updates, but I’m pretty good at stuff like that.

Thanks!

Hi Josue:

Glad that loads for you now. The text in question is the part that starts off, “One bite of our mouthwatering ‘cue…”. It’s in the lighter gray highlight box about halfway down the page. Right now it’s correct (i.e. white) because I’m using !important. I believe the original CSS that was persisting was .main_color h3. What I thought was supposed to override that is the class .bb-home-highlight-box, which is in the child theme’s style.css file. Was the original not being overridden because it was being applied to a fairly specific H3 element?

Thanks!

I can lift the block for as long as necessary, but I have to know what to unblock. Considering the problems we had, I’m certainly not going to unblock everything. Oh, and !important does work. It just shouldn’t be necessary. A css file that’s loaded later should override styles from those loaded earlier.

Thanks!

Hi Rikard:

Thanks for the reply. I’ll paste the URL to the page in question in the private content area below. The text in question is the part that starts off, “One bite of our…”, in the lighter gray highlight box. You’ll see that the child theme’s style.css is loaded two lines after the dynamic_avia css file yet still does not override the text color, even though it seems to me like it should. I have used !important for now. However if you can tell why this is necessary, please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Elliott:

Well, the responsive part must’ve been my Firefox acting up, because it’s fine now.

For the rest, currently this site is in the very beginning stages so it’s on my dev box, and I don’t have a link for you. However I did upload a screenshot to my regular site. The white space shaded in red needs to be about half what it is, so perhaps 20px-ish. I think I may have discovered how to reduce the space around the outside of the columns by adjusting the top and bottom padding of .content and the right and left padding of .container. HOWEVER, that still leaves the space in between the columns.

Also I think I need to completely get rid of the top horizontal menu area. It’s empty now because I created an empty menu and assigned it to the main menu space. However I’ve had no luck in making it actually go away. I need the logo graphic centered at the top like it is, but also need a left vertical main menu.

You see, the client really likes her site colors and layout, so the goal is to make it responsive and allow her to edit if she wants (hence the WordPress part) while keeping it as close to the same look as possible.

Thanks!
