Update: I think I figured it out. In the documentation, there is a css snippet for making the footer full width, but it does not really do much, unless it is a single-column footer, which most footers are not. So, I added div in the selector and it now performs as desired. Feel free to adjust the documentation to help others that might be facing similar issues with mobile footer display.

/* Full width footer columns */
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
#footer .container div {
width: 100vw;
max-width: 100%!important;
} }

Thank you, Ismael. The last part was what I was looking for. It sounded like things were changing in the recent past as to how Enfold handled CPTs, so before digging into a potentially deep project, I wanted to make sure I was in line with the best practices for Enfold compatibility.

I had to do a bunch of css work to fix the issue.

I still would be very interested in seeing a method to accomplish this as a main menu, rather than as a shortcode attached subnavbar element. Can there be some consideration for making the main nav its own for formatting? Currently, it resides within the Header element, which means it affects the entire header along with the navbar. For those using navbars below the logo, it would be really useful to be able to style that element on its own.

Hope this helps!

Hi, Rikard!

I eventually find it, after searching and searching, but for someone that knows the Kriesi site, that may be ok, but for new users, which I think we all want more Enfold users, they’d have absolutely no idea where to look. We can do better than that. If we really want to kick things up a bit, here are some places that I think would really benefit both new users and seasoned ones.

Intro screen for those first installing Enfold. Include a welcome, links to Docs, Tutorials, Snippets, and Examples for those looking for a creative kick-start.

Add a Help tab to the Theme Options, with links to the various areas. Make it able to be disabled, for those with embedded solutions using Enfold, but on by default.

Support Navbar link should NOT go straight to the forums. It makes users feel like they always have to look through volumes of information to solve what might be a quick answer to a question. It also makes support staff the central focus, rather than giving people and opportunity to quickly find what might be their solution, or lead them in the right direction.

Support should be drop-down, with individual links to Documentation, Tutorials, Examples, Integrations, Latest Release (links to release notes), Forums, and direct link to Ask a Question.

Demos should link to page that displays Demo content, but also great examples of Enfold used in the wild. With themes like Elementor getting massive national press, the least we can do is showcase some of the best and most innovative Enfold-driven websites. Lastly, a link to submit your own site for showcasing. I know it is in the forums, but do you really want people to have to dig to showcase an Enfold site?

Let’s come up with a real and working solution for integrations. How may “Does Enfold work with…” questions do you get? There are a ton of us that regularly use sets of plugins that we know either work out-of-the-box or have created ways to integrate them. Let’s build a repository of those and spur on a new group of integrations. If we don’t call it out, how can we ever expect to make that “works with…” list longer? We want it so those products that we integrate look to promote Enfold as a great option for utilizing their solutions. We also need a way to suggest or request an integration.

Also, is there any way to funnel the other Kriesi-based theme users into the Enfold trunk and simplify the support, enhancement and growth of Enfold as a platform, rather than just a theme? Would it be worth considering offering a license of Enfold to any other Kriesi theme user to encourage switching to the Enfold platform? It may cost a few sales, but at the same time, it gets them into a highly versatile platform that keeps growing, and might just spur on their creative spirits to do new things with Enfold. Just a crazy thought.

I know I am asking for you all to add more work to your plates, but at the same time, I would be happy to help on some of it. We all want Enfold to continue to grow and flourish, but we have to also be willing to put effort into the Kriesi site to support those sales, support and promotional efforts. It also will help users in ways that will alleviate some service and support issues before they even get to the forums.

I guess the bottom line is let’s work together as a community to showcase Enfold, grow our audience, which drives sales, which drives the ability to do even greater things.

Okay, so I have been digging into this more and more. Does Enfold save the short description field in a different place, like it does for post content in the meta table?

Thank you! That works beautifully!

Sorta related question. Is there anything within Enfold/Avia that would strip shortcodes from a product short description field? I have used the function WooCommerce gives to allow shortcodes in them, but something continues to strip any/all shortcodes/code out of the field upon save/update.

I forgot to note that I have done a re-install of both WP (in-place) and Enfold (fresh copy + saved settings).

Ok, so I think I figured part of it out. I was looking for what was manipulating the images to 400×400, but what was affecting them first was WooCommrce setting them to 300×300.

I would suggest that it might be beneficial to place a link in the Enfold settings that links to the Customizer for WooCommerce. I can see where it would be very confusing for a new Enfold / WooCommerce user to go in circles looking for why their images are blurry. It threw me off, and I have been working with Enfold for a very long time now.

What I still do not know, though, is what is trying to resize to 400×400. I wish we could just override all of the settings and choose an image size directly within the enfold Product Grid element. It would be far more consistent with other ALB elements that have this functionality.

Hi Ismael,

I was trying various methods to get it to work. I did try separate widgets and combined widgets. They both try to load the footer formatting and it also closed the element before the code is finished.

I was very interested in getting some guidance on creating Avia Elements like what was done for Events Calendar Pro, but have not had much luck getting any guidance to that end. I ended up hiring a developer that has experience modifying these elements, but wish there was a better way to create them. There is so much opportunity to grow the capabilities of Enfold, if we had a better developer resource. This is why other platforms have success, because they allow for extensibility. Visual Composer, Gutenberg, Avada, Beaver Builder, etc., all welcome development of new modules. Please, give us the capability to build upon the platform we love, so we don’t have to eventually look elsewhere.

We have been asking for years to either have a Pro version of Enfold that has more capabilities or the option of creating our own elements, but at this point, we are watching other frameworks grow by leaps and bounds while Enfold is still limited to only what you want to build into it. We love Enfold, and promote it every single chance we can, but the arguments that we used to have that Enfold had so much more and was so much easier are getting less and less compared to other frameworks. We want you back on top. Please.

I know I am pushing you, but it is only because we want to see Enfold do incredible things again.

I would much rather you see things are they are before me making changes, so I have included access for you.

It would be awesome to find a solution, because Enfold, Events Calendar Pro, GeoDirectory and Gravity Forms are the most important tools across any site I build. With all of them, almost anything is possible. Enfold and css have always been the thing that brings everything together.

Thank you for all of the help and insight,
