Wonderful, thank you!
If I wanted to not use the socket as a menu (in traditional sense), and instead put several pop-ups in it, is there a good way to achieve this? There is traditional navigation at the top, and at the bottom, we want to use navigation that answers questions like:
I need: (pop-up 1)
Find a specific service: (pop-up 2)
Get Involved with: (pop-up 3)I know this could get involved, but any chance you could get me started on the right step?
Actually, I think I misunderstood the footer menu in the first place. I was hoping it was a floating footer (at the bottom of the screen always). So, that said, not sure if it is not working, though it does not appear to show with it selected anywhere.
Is there any way to achieve a floating menu at the bottom of the screen.
Simple.
I would like to know how to build content and media elements for use within the avia page builder. We needed a couple simple modifications for the masonry view, so it actually displayed items in the correct order and Werkpress came back with $150/hour. That might be okay for large corporations, but for smaller projects, it is crazy. While I could dig in an learn by example, I was asking if there were guides, so that people could start to expand the capabilities of Enfold’s avia page builder. One of the best ways to make something indispensable is to make it extensible, so it can fit into anyone’s needs, much in the same way as the Avia page builder did for WordPress themes when it came out. I want to take it further.
Understood.
Then here is what I need help with. How can I have a single instance (child element?) of a avia element (full-width-masonry) that has specific needs, without it affecting all of the occurrences of full-width-masonry). This way, if custom development was made, it could be limited to one instance and therefore keep the frameworks intact.
My biggest dilemma is that to achieve this minor change, I run the risk of making the theme un-updatable. Tribe points me to Kriesi, while you point me to Tribe. I know it is not meant to catch me in the middle, but it does. Surely, there has to be a solution to this without it completely breaking the frameworks both companies have built.
So, my question is how am I able to get a listing like this?
Is there a way to edit the element/function for an instance or duplicate it so I can affect it without affecting all instances of the full-width masonry element?
On a different note, my curiosity is if events are supported by the theme, would it not make sense to be able to sort by an event’s date? Otherwise, nothing would ever be in order, unless you either faked a post date, which could mess up all functionality or let things flow willy-nilly. I guess I just does not make sense to me that event dates had anything to do with a post date. The two are completely different types of dates for completely different needs.
I got a few things figured out, but still having a heck of a time with the navbar. I really wish there was an easier way to specify font sizing, coloration and style. Case in point, I need a font in black weight (900), but I have not been able to find any way to achieve this in the navbar, even with the above.
I need to specify the navbar font, size, color, style and weight. For some reason, Enfold wants to insert its own color schemes (tint of orange selected in the Enfold style menus. It also refuses to let me specify the weight.
Navbar needs to be Myriad-Pro font-size: 16px, font-weight: 900. I want the navbar (main) to be in normal state color #ffdcbd. In hover and active state: color: #ff7700; background-color: #fff; text-decoration: underline;
Navbar drop-down items need to be similar: normal state: font-weight: 900; font-size: 14px; color: #ff7700; background-color: #fff.
In hover/active states: color: #cc4400; text-decoration: underline;We really need a better way, and we are willing to pay for a more advanced admin, if offered. That, or a cheat sheet for css elements. Enfold is so deep that it is hard to find what controls what without having selectors a mile long. We want to really push what Enfold can do, because it is an amazingly powerful platform (beyond just a theme). Maybe that is more of a way of asking for a Pro version of this theme, which we again would be very happy to purchase. I don’t care if it is $200. A good platform is the foundation for any website.
Understood. I was not sure if you would still see them if they got lost deeper in the list. My apologies.
Thank you very much for the help. This did it. It was more of choosing the right selector, I think. I would like to request two things in the future, if possible.
An easier selector for the main menu. While being as dynamic as it is, I still think there has to be an easier way to select it, especially for doing transformations like these.
Secondly, What would it take to convince your company to support TypeKit out of the box? Menus and all? Give us a chance to show you it would be worthwhile. How many hours of time to implement it and how many themes sold it would take to justify it. Let’s see if we can make it happen on both our sides.
I have so far been unable to get it to adjust the size, and that has been the problem. It seems to want to override the size and the font-weight, but I will try your code with the size amended.
We need a way to DISABLE your font defaults to Google, so we can use other services for font delivery like Typekit. I go through these forums and see so many people ask about Typekit and no one there wants to do anything other than say it won’t work. If we have a plug-in to load the JS (Captain Typekit), there should be a way t pull those fonts. I know it does not support @font, but that is not the only way to call fonts. We have built hundreds of sites (both custom and WordPress) that actively and correctly use Typekit. Enfold would become our default choice for WP themes, if you supported it. I keep trying to make it work, but until I can get it to work reliably, we will only use it once in a great while. Fix it and you will have dozens of licenses for new sites and we will start to rebuild some of the older sites to use it as well. It may not be hundreds of sites each year, but it is still a decent amount of money that ends up going to other themes.
The link they give is only for adding other Google fonts. How do you choose NON-GOOGLE fonts reliably?
I understand your thoughts on Known Issues, but respectfully disagree that waiting for an update is sufficient. Sometimes, if you do not frequent these forums and judging from host fast it cycles, it is near impossible to see if an issue may actually be a bug, even if temporary.
