    @envatotastic9
    Nice to see another British website on the Enfold Showcase. Nice job!

    A little bit of advice – Your cookie policy / pop-up implimentation is not GDPR compliant.
    As far as I can see your Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics cookies load on page and there is no option to opt in or out from the pop-up. Users must explicitly opt-in to this from your cookie pop-up.
    Enfold’s built in tools can do everything apart from record consent. Generally recording consent is a premium feature for cookie plugins but means Enfold can meet most of the requirements of GDPR if you are not worried about recording consent.

    You can add both Facebook and Googla Analytics tags into the Enfold Control Panel under Google Services. You can then re-word the cookie popup to cover tracking cookies rather than Google Specifically.
    I hope this helps.

    Otherwise I’d recommend going for a full compliance and using a plugin that includes recording consent.

    This also helps improve site speed because the tracking scripts do not run until the user opts in.

    Thanks Mike / Steve,
    Really appreciate the fast response.
    I’ll try the fixed code when I am next working on the clients site.

    Thanks for highlighting the issue with Safari and Caching its been a pain to deal with when some of my clients dont own laptops. Safari on Tablet (older versions in particular) has some serious issues with checking cache age thats for sure! Normally on mobiles a swipe down action in the browser will do the job but not every time.

    @mike

    Its something to do with the combination of options selected within the slider.

    Found it!
    Use first slides caption as permanent caption

    If you turn this on the button links stop working in version 5.0.

    Try that on your test server. You can now see the button is working on my example site.

    Please can you add this to the bug fix list for version 5.1

    @mike

    It seems to only be a problem if it is the first element on the page.

    • This reply was modified 2 years, 5 months ago by thinkjarvis.

    @Mike

    You could see the issue on the link I sent over though right? Its not possible to click the button.

    @Rickard
    Really sorry I cant leave the link active for much longer If you try the private data link I sent and the link has been removed it is because the client has woken up for the day.

    I can leave it active for a few hours more just yet.

    @Rikard
    I can reproduce this issue.
    Buttons on Easy Slider and Full Width Easy Slider are not working.

    The link address is there but the element is not clickable.

    Hi Gunter,

    I think what you are suggesting should solve the problem
    As per guenni’s screen shot above.
    Making it so the font size specified in the special heading (and all headings) only apply to the screen size specified would make sense – instead of becoming the new default size.
    Then all other screen sizes are the default size as set by the theme OR as set in the new typography settings.

    New Size options
    As a pro feature I would probably use extra percentage based sizes however scale from desktop to mobiles is not uniform so percentages never seem to work too well vs px sizes. The percentages are based on screen width desktop is 16:9 and mobiles are 9:16. So percentage driven often means the fonts are too small on mobiles when they scale down. I normally use px values for each screen size because of this.

    I wouldnt complain if there were more options. A Pro users being able to type in a figure and unit would be preferred as an extension to the existing options – better for developers than more dropdown options.

    Thanks @Guenni007

    The issue is simple when you set the sizes you expect it to only affect those screen sizes and the “Default” for all other screen sizes should be the theme default OR the styles specified in the new Enfold > General Styling > Typography tab. The logic isn’t right at the moment.

    This is a new change in the most recent versions of Enfold. The problem only started to occur when I moved to the latest version.

    It used to work as expected but now as Guenni007 has pointed out the Default size is now the desktop size which is really silly.


    @Rikard

    Do you have enough to understand the issue here?

    I just want to add – I have over 50 Enfold licenses / sites with another 15 in progress and in about half of the cases I did not specify font sizes for the smaller screens. This means I will have to go through every heading on every page and explicitly state font sizes – Its going to take an extremely long time and is caused by a recent change in the logic.

    I’ll get back to you. I should be back working on the test server later this week.

    in reply to: Bug: Mega Menu Offset incorrect in 4.9.2.3 #1352737

    I can see the problem.

    It thinks the menu is a six column and a three column when they are infact two columns and one columns. You can see it in the screenshots in the previous post.

    It automatically sets an offset based on what I assume is how close the item is to the edge of the screen to prevent it shooting off:

    All of the mega menus are Right aligned by default. So I have changed the ones causing problems to left aligned using the following code:

    I must add, this wont work on smaller screens – So must be media query driven. Otherwise a wide menu will shoot off the page to the right.

    @media screen and (min-width:1441px) {
    #header #menu-item-87 .avia_mega_div {
        left: 0px !important;
        right: auto !important;
    }
    }

    in reply to: Bug: Mega Menu Offset incorrect in 4.9.2.3 #1352736

    Hi Ismael,
    Thanks for taking a look. I have screenshot the issue and highlighted the automated code that is causing the issue.

    Its affecting every site that has a mega menu when ran on a standard 1920px wide monitor. But the break point where the problem occurs varies depending on the length of the menu. It is auto-calculating an offset somewhere but it is getting it wrong.
    When you jump down to 720p (1366px) it is fine. It is just HD desktops.

    This did not occur until one of the 3 latest versions of Enfold. I think it was 4.9.2.1 where this first started happening.

    Take a look at the screen shots and let me know what you think.

    in reply to: Enfold Showcase #1350121

    Here is a new site we developed for UK Cyber Security Ltd
    Cyber Essentials and IASME Governance Provider East Midlands

    UK Cyber Security Ltd is a Cyber Security and IT Management company based in Swadlincote, Derbyshire, UK. They are a Cyber Essentials and IASME Governance Certification Body, offering a range of IT security services including penetration testing and network scanning.

    The company had lost the original copy of their logo so we recovered their logo and fonts ready for use on their new website.

    Built on an optimised version of Enfold with WooCommerce and TakePayments integration. The site includes a bespoke quote generator built using Cost Calculator WordPress purchased from Theme Forest / Code Canyon.

    The site includes modifications to WooCommerce:
    -Add widget to main menu area so search bar is available on desktops
    -Add a widget to the top of the product page so search can be added to mobile pages
    -Modified search so it only searches products and includes SKUs
    -Changed the breakpoint so the sidebar disappears on tablets
    -Seperate the categories from the main shop loop for better navigation

    Pagespeed and Web Vitals
    The home page under testing scores up to 93/100 in Google Web Vitals mobile device testing and 100/100 on desktops.
    This is because the quote generator loads some files on every page a small tradeoff for extra functionality.

    The Think Jarvis optimised web framework includes some extra optimisation:
    – VPS hosting with maximum resource allocation from IONOS
    – Unique modifications to .htaccess and functions.php
    – Caching plugin
    – Additional image thumbnail generation
    – WebP image generation and compression
    – Login screen moved and password protected to prevent brute force attacks
    – Jetpack Brute Force Protection
    – Advanced contact form spam protection without using Google Recaptcha

    Another site launch this week.

    Bespoke wooden furniture maker

    Cedar Design Studio is an Etsy seller who was looking to set up an ecommerce website so they could sell direct alongside their other listings.

    The company is a hand made wooden furniture maker based in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, UK. They specialise in hand made wooden desks with hairpin legs and also make bookcases, tv units and coffee tables to order.

    The website is of course based on a modified version of Enfold with WooCommerce installed. The site uses Stripe for payments and the WooCommerce Extra Product Options plugin from Theme Forest/Code Canyon.
    I can highly recommend this plugin as a great way to manage products with multiple variations (Where SKU codes do not matter). Each Desk has around 1400 variations so it would have been time consuming to use the built in variations options vs using the plugin to manage them centrally.

    The site includes modifications to WooCommerce:
    -Add widget to main menu area so search bar is available on desktops
    -Add a widget to the top of the product page so search can be added to mobile pages
    -Modified search so it only searches products and includes SKUs
    -Changed the breakpoint so the sidebar disappears on tablets
    -Seperate the categories from the main shop loop for better navigation

    Enfold has been optimised using our standard setup for Enfold and WooCommerce. This includes changes to functions.php

    The site scores up to 95/100 in web vitals testing.

    One more today:
    Towards the end of last year I produced a new site for StruServices a Tekla Steel Detailing and Bim Specialist in Burton On Trent, UK. They specialise in Steel detailing for the construciton industry.

    The company had an outdated WordPress website – Pre mobile design whcih needed modernising. Think Jarvis created a new website taking advantage of the Youtube embed options within Enfold. We also re-drew their logo – future-proofing their business going forward.

    To prevent CLS shift we added bespoke media queries for the height of the above the fold images.

    The site scores up to 92/100 in web vitals testing
    Our standard Enfold performance stack includes:
    bespoke .htaccess settings
    bespoke functions.php settings
    Font pre-load
    Script merge and minify
    Caching
    Srcset with additional image sizes added
    WebP image generation

    Another happy customer
    Think Jarvis designed a new website for HD Prestige Valeting. A Car detailing and ceramic coating specialist based in Swadlincote, Derbyshire UK.

    You can see the site here: HD Prestige Valeting – Car Detailing and Ceramic Coating Specialist

    The site includes pricing tables, a Smash Balloon instagram feed and Facebook Chat Widget.

    Smash Balloon has been optimised by setting it to only load with the shortcode. We also use a lazy load module to reduce the performance impact of having a feed on the home page.

    over the next few weeks the site will be getting a WooCommerce upgrade. HD Prestige have launched their own range of car cleaning products available to buy online and at their valeting workshop. More to follow!

    The site scores up to 96/100 in web vitals testing

    in reply to: Bug: Checkout Error WooCommerce Compatibility 4.8.1 #1342042

    Thanks Mike,

    Much appreciated.

    in reply to: Bug: Checkout Error WooCommerce Compatibility 4.8.1 #1341608

    This is a bug with Enfold and affects all Enfold sites
    I have replaced the lines on the example site
    Fixed by adding your code. See source I commented out the original so it is still there.

    The cause is
    Enfold/config-woocommerce/config.php on line 2999
    and
    Enfold/config-woocommerce/config-356.php on line 2493

    Please can you add your fix to the next release?

    in reply to: Bug: Checkout Error WooCommerce Compatibility 4.8.1 #1341540

    Thanks Mike for going above and beyond.

    I think this is caused by a mod I made to the search script. Using a snippet from another forum post.

    I’ll check the file and report back.

    EDIT: See resonse below. Custom Code is fine. No custom JS in fuctions file. This is caused by Enfold see my latest reply for location of problem.
    Your fix seems to work though but needs adding to the 4.9 release of Enfold

    • This reply was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by thinkjarvis.

    Thanks Yigit! I have your email.

    On the site I first noticed this on I have re-uploaded the custom font – Removing the dash from the file name for now.

    in reply to: GDPR 2022 news #1340565

    While I think about it.
    The proof of consent may actually be available in Google Analytics.
    I’d have to dig into this more.
    For my sites – Every time a user clicks accept Google Analytics starts tracking. Therefore I should be able to find a record of when each session starts.

    in reply to: GDPR 2022 news #1340563

    Most of the paid add-ons cover this. Its not easy to implement – Which is why they are paid add-ons.

    Without doing thorough research CookieYes appears to be free for small websites and can be installed on WordPress sites manually.
    http://www.cookieyes.com/cookieyes-code-installation-on-wordpress/

    The law states you have to be able to prove consent took place. Which is kind of weird because Cookies can be deleted meaning consent from one user may actually be given several times in one 12 month period from the initial consent. Its a really weird part of the law because of how cookies work.

    I think you may have to Go to Goolge for a solution on this one.

    At this point in time I wont be adding this feature to my client’s sites. But I will likely have to soon to be able to comply with this part of the law.

    @paoluccimarketing2015

    Most are paid subscriptions.
    I have the following running on a DIVI Theme site: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gdpr-cookie-compliance/
    But again the free version does everything Enfold can do without a plugin.

    I would Just use the built in Privacy and Cookie Popup built in to Enfold.
    I use the built in tools on 50 Enfold sites on my server. Works very well.

    Configured as per previous post is compliant for WordPress Essential Cookies and Google Analytics.

    You can add extra cookies like Facebook Pixel yourself in the advanced settings.

    Hope this helps.

    in reply to: GDPR 2022 news #1338707

    No problem.

    I have an example of this that I just published.

    Take a look here:
    https://www.mjftraining.co.uk/

    and privacy policy with cookie settings button to reopen the modal here:
    https://www.mjftraining.co.uk/company-policies/

    in reply to: GDPR 2022 news #1338483

    Just seen this and thought I’d share a solution that meets all of the criteria using Enfolds built in Cookie Consent System.
    Enfolds built in Cookie manager is more compliant than 99% of other websites systems out there. The only thing it doesnt not do is store the values of when a user clicked consent. If you require this then you will need a plugin like Cookie Bot.

    Users should be able to turn cookies on and off whenever they like. You can do this by embedding the shortcodes in your privacy page for each on/off option OR you can set the cookie icon to remain in the corner of the page so you can change your consent at any point in time.

    Set cookies to essential only and then user must opt in
    Change the buttons to Accept All and Settings on the popup
    Change the buttons in the modal to Accept All and Do Not Accept

    From Enfold > Privacy and Cookies > Cookie Handling > Advanced Options > Show Reopen badge
    OR
    Use the Privacy and Cookies > Shortcodes to add the options into your privacy and cookie page directly.

    From Cookie Bot:
    Prior and explicit consent must be obtained before any activation of cookies (apart from whitelisted, necessary cookies).

    • Consents must be granular, i.e. users must be able to activate some cookies rather than others and not be forced to consent to either all or none.
    • Consent must be freely given, i.e. not allowed to be forced.
    • Consents must be as easily withdrawn as they are given.
    • Consents must be securely stored as legal documentation.
    • Consent must be renewed at least once per year. However, some national data protection guidelines recommend more frequent renewal, e.g. 6 months.
    • Check your local data protection guidelines for compliance.

    Unfortunately this didnt work.

    I have found another solution in the forum which I am going to put to the client but it will mean customising loop-index.php and loop-author.php.

    I have commented out the line that pulls in the VCard Author info.

    Looks like the client site has an outdated version of loop-index.php in the child theme folder. I’ll have to address this with the client.
