Hey Nick,
I think ive fathomed how to change the color although I seem to wrestle with internal CSS components which seems to mean my code is ignored half the time. Theres clearly a process I need to go through but its a bit hit and miss.
**/SEE BELOW/**
.avia-icon-list .iconlist_icon{height:64px; width:64px; line-height: 60px; font-size: 30px; text-align: center; border-radius: 500px; position: relative; float:left; margin-right:30px; margin-left:2px; z-index: 5; border-style:solid; border-width:2px; color:#fff;
}
.main_color .avia-icon-list .iconlist_icon {
background-color: #d73119;
}
it seems that I can do it providing I have both parts but im not sure why. I got the first part from another post.
Anyway, my last question on this is how do I create this same entypo disc without the the list content to the right. This is mainly because I want to create individual entypo discs with my own descriptive text either above or below it (centred or left justified). Im kicking myself for not just asking that question at the start
Cheers
Andy
More flexible Icon-Box – means:
1. allow the additional use of custom icons
2. more styling options (background, font size ect…)
hi again…
and to add to this. what if all I want to do is use the entypo font pictogram inside a single disc/circle? exactly the same as the Icon list but without the text or dotted lines. I cant find anything to help me at all
Cheers
Andrew
Hi there,
I think we got our wires crossed as the section I was referring to is the ‘Avia icon_list’ the discs which contain the entypo glyphs. I wanted to change the disc and the outline and leave the entypo glyphs white. I also want to resize them too
When I use the inspector I come across the following…
media="screen"
.main_color .avia-icon-list .iconlist_icon {
background-color: #d73119 !important;
}
and whilst changing the color works in the inspector as soon as I drop it into the CSS of my child theme nothing changes. I thought adding !important might help (assuming I understood its importance which I guess now I dont!!) but it did nothing.
Thing is, this is where I usually come stuck as ive followed your instructions but things like this wont change. Im clearly not doing something but what is it that im doing wrong? Can you help me understand as my next thing is changing the dropdown background on the top nav and I know that will be the same issue.
Hi,
This is the url of the About Us section of the demo http://kriesi.at/themes/enfold/pages/about-us/ … There are no icons here , but I am guessing thumbnail photos – like when you run the mouse over harrold houdini’s photo?
I got this css exactly the same way as shown on the above video using chrome developer tools
/*---these are the colors when mouse hovers--*/
#top .avia-team-member .twitter:hover {
color: rgb(70, 212, 254);
}
#top .avia-team-member .dribbble:hover {
color: rgb(228, 72, 133);
}
/*---this is the regular color of the icon inside circle--*/
#top .main_color .team-social a
color: grey;
}
/*---this is complete settings controlling size, shape, background color, position of the circle itself--*/
#top .team-social a {
text-decoration: none;
position: relative;
border-radius: 30px;
padding: 0 16px;
background: rgb(224, 17, 17);
margin: 3px;
display: inline-block;
height: 53px;
line-height: 54px;
width: 53px;
}
Keep playing with developer tools, i know at first it seems oppressive, but there is nothing better than this to use to quickly be able to edit css of any site.
Thanks,
Nick
Hi Nick,
thats great and I think when we talk basic changes like H1 text, logo heights etc… the way you mention seems relatively straight forward for a novice. Where Ive become continuously unstuck are things like the discs (behind the icons) if I want them a different colour or size, or to change things that have (what i call) nested button states – the drop down menu for instance as I want to change the colours of the ‘drop down’ background but because there are several states (off, rollover and sometime on) I cant quite find the right piece of code using the method you mention. I also want to alter the (moving) thin underline when you rollover the top nav so that I remove the middle ‘tick’ mark and increase the thickness slightly but again I can’t see where the correct code is amid a sea of other comments. This im sure is my inexperience but any clue as to how to deal with such things would be warmly received
Cheers
all the best
Andy
Hi,
Your best bet is to instal Chrome Developer Tools and without needing to know CSS you can manipulate the elements easily. I just made a video https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hqGBMSfHtKd2l6UkcwUjVBVWM/edit?usp=sharing showing how easy it is to change the menu any way you want , copy and paste to quick css in the theme backend. This is the best tool for editing without the learning curve.
Thanks,
Nick
thanks and I found the min-width shall be made to the code below, but how can I add such change to the quick CSS?
.avia-button.avia-size-small{
padding:7px 10px;
font-size: 13px;
min-width: 120px;
}
.avia-button.avia-size-medium{
padding:10px 0px;
font-size: 14px;
min-width: 90px;
}
.avia-button.avia-size-large{
padding: 13px 30px;
font-size: 14px;
min-width: 127px;
Hi there,
Trying to change a few things as im creating a dark theme with a chocolate background with dark red buttons, labels & icons. Ive looked through the layout CSS file and cant seem to change/find what I need
1) The font sizes throughout – in particular the H1 tags and the main menu fonts. I want to use much bigger font sizes. When I try to change the menu in the layout CSS file nothing happens which I presume is because of responsive control settings
2) Changing the drop down nav background to red with black/white text and also a lighter rollover background version
3) The circular disc backgrounds (as used in the demo ‘About Us’ section) id like to change the disc background to the mentioned red colour
Cheers
Hey!
Use:
style="font-size: 13px"
instead. Afaik font size=”” is outdated.
Best regards,
Peter
Here was my css code:
.main_menu ul:first-child > li > a {
font-size: 152px;
}
#header {
position: fixed;
}
I removed the top code and the site renders, but the bottom code cuts off about an inch of each page.
OK, Thanks that helped.
Can you advise of the best way to increase the size of the phone # ?
Right now I’m using <font size=”4″>xxx-xxx-xxx
It doesn’t work well on all browsers,
Thanks
.menu-item a {
font-size: 20px!important;
}
Thanks man, this one works
Hi,
Try this on your Quick CSS or custom.css
.menu-item a {
font-size: 20px!important;
}

Hi,
You can make it smaller with this code
.avia-icon-list .iconlist_icon{height:64px; width:64px; line-height: 60px; font-size: 30px; text-align: center; border-radius: 500px; position: relative; float:left; margin-right:30px; margin-left:2px; z-index: 5; border-style:solid; border-width:2px; color:#fff;}
Change the values of height, width, line-height and font-size properties. Something like this.
.avia-icon-list .iconlist_icon{height:50px; width:50px; line-height: 50px; font-size: 20px; text-align: center; border-radius: 500px; position: relative; float:left; margin-right:30px; margin-left:2px; z-index: 5; border-style:solid; border-width:2px; color:#fff;}

Hi,
1.) Edit css > base.css and find this code.
.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"E744"; font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; }
.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"27A6";}
.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"25B6";}
You can change it to something like this.
.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"E744"; font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; }
.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"E723";}
.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside::before{content:"E723";}
Change the “content” property using Entypo. Refer to this link. http://www.entypo.com/characters/

Hi,
Yes, you can style a specific category page but only the overview page of a certain category not the single view of the products included on that category. On the category overview page all you can change is the title of the products and the add to cart button text. For example you have a category named jewelry. You can add something like this on your custom.css or Quick CSS.
.term-jewelry .product h3.cufon_headings {
font-size: 20px;
}
Another example is shoes. You can add .term-shoes instead.

Hi,
I don’t see anything on the website. My suggestion is to make the font size small. Maybe you might have to do it by separating some of the menus. Please make the site live so that we can inspect it.
Regards,
Ismael
Okay some basic questions:
I have Abundance and have used shortcodes to put products into certain pages not just the SHOP page. i.e: Bracelets on a bracelet page, Necklaces on the Necklace page, etc. But now I want to add CSS to make the font and sizes specific to my products across the board.
Where do I put the CSS code, in the quick CSS? and how do I specify my products on this one.
Also my pictures are showing up stretched, I imported them before I got this theme do I have to upload them again or where do I see the correct sizes they should be not to be misshapen? how do I fix this…
Thanks.
Hope you can help a newbie…

Hi bluemoonink,
I prefer it simply because it allows me to have control over the end result just a little bit more. If you also start with a base size, you know every other percentage css is based on a base size.
But you are always open to changing things as you want :)
Regards,
Devin
Yes, insert following code into the chick css field and adjust the font size value:
h1 { font-size: 34px; line-height: 1.1em; margin-bottom: 14px;}
h2 { font-size: 28px; line-height: 1.1em; margin-bottom: 10px; }
h3 { font-size: 19px; line-height: 1.1em; margin-bottom: 8px; } /*28*/
h4 { font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.1em; margin-bottom: 4px; } /*21*/
h5 { font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.1em; } /*17*/
h6 { font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.1em; }
Does one have to modify the CSS for this?
Hi!
Insert following code into the quick css field:
.main_menu ul:first-child > li > a {
font-size: 13px;
}
and use another font size value.
Best regards,
Peter
How does one adjust font sizes (for H1, H2, etc.)?
Thanks
Hi:
Just purchased this theme – I LOVE it… most flexible & well thought out I’ve seen.
I don’t really want fixed font sizes for body text & headers, but it looks like that is how the css is? base font 13px and then headers, starting with h6 at 14px? I see it here in base.css:
body {
font: 13px/1.65em “HelveticaNeue”, “Helvetica Neue”, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
color: #444;
/* -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; /* Fix for webkit rendering */
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
}
though everywhere else font-size is “100%”.
If I add css to custom.css like this:
body {
font-size:100%;
}
It then uses my browser font size. Is this the correct way to do this? Will it adjust all the headers accordingly? Will mobile still be ok? Is there a reason that I should know why you used a fixed font-size…???
Just want to know so I don’t inadvertently break something…
thank you
Hey mohitso,
Can we see your site live? We can inspect the code and see what css should be used to accurately target your main menu and make the font size larger.
Regards,
Devin
it doesnt seem to change the size. Here is what I have in my quick CSS:
#header {
position: fixed;
}
#main {
margin-top: 152px;
}
#top .social_bookmarks li a {
font-size: 30px;
}
.main_menu ul:first-child > li > a{
font-size: 21px;
}
ADMIN PANEL > Enfold Theme Options > Styling > Quick CSS (paste code) :
.main_menu ul:first-child > li > a{
font-size: 21px;
}
Hi
Great theme.
1. Agree with Sebastian’s suggestions for small fixed header WITH social icons?
2. Control over main menu fonts/size/colour [can’t see how to do this without CSS, correct me if it’s already there]
Thanks
