Hey Margot,
Could you try updating the theme to the latest version (7.1) to see if that helps please? https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-update/. Register your theme license: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/
Best regards,

Hi,
Thanks for the update. Please open a new thread if you should have any further questions or problems.

Yes, that CSS is there but whatever is changed on it affects both the navigation bar search box and the content custom search widget. Below is the CSS for the home page content custom search widget. Is anything is this customization affecting the navigation search box? It was working correctly for several years up until the latest version of Enfold. I don’t know what changed, but rolling back to previous versions of Enfold in a staging area corrects it.

Hello,
First of all, thank you for the quality of your Enfold theme. I recently read an article on Medium that highly praised your theme, especially in comparison with Elementor, and it encouraged me to choose Enfold for my project.
During my installation of the Enfold theme on WordPress, I did not see the option to import the full demo content (“dummy data”) as shown in your documentation (please see the attached screenshot).
Could you please guide me on how to easily install the complete demo site, with all pages and settings ready to use?
Also, do you offer a “Quickstart” package — meaning a complete version with WordPress + Enfold + demo content preinstalled — that can be installed directly on a server, similar to what Yootheme provides for Joomla?
Thank you very much for your help!

I am encountering a significant issue with the Avia Layout Builder on my website.
When I try to edit a page or post, the Avia Builder does not load at all — the editing area remains completely blank, with no elements or options visible.
Here are the details of my situation:
WordPress version: 6.8
Enfold theme version: 5.6.9
PHP version: 8.1.32
Website URL: https://6et7.fr/
Hosting provider: OVH
What I have already tried:
Deactivated all plugins except Enfold, and the problem persisted.
Cleared all caches (WordPress cache, browser cache, server cache if applicable).
Checked for JavaScript errors in the browser console (I can provide error logs if needed).
Re-installed the Enfold theme with the latest version.
Confirmed that the server meets the theme requirements (memory limit, PHP version, etc.).
Symptoms observed:
Avia Layout Builder does not display any elements when opening a page or post.
No loading spinner or error message visible in the WordPress dashboard.
Additional Information:
The issue started occurring two weeks ago.
No new plugins or major updates were installed immediately before the problem appeared.
I am ready to provide admin credentials privately if you need to access the dashboard for further investigation.
I would appreciate your support and any troubleshooting guidance you can offer to help resolve this as soon as possible.
Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.
Hey Guenter,
Thank you for the inquiry.
We can’t find the enfold-font-size-content-font variable anywhere in the theme — only enfold-font-size-theme-content. Where did you see the enfold-font-size-content-font variable?
Best regards,
Ismael
Hey agentur2c,
Thank you for the inquiry.
You can change the layout of the archive or category page by adjusting the Enfold > Blog Layout > Blog Styling and Blog Layout settings. Please check the screenshot below:

Hey diraastro,
Try adding this code to the end of your child theme functions.php file in Appearance ▸ Editor:
function change_the_order_of_milestone_even_on_mobile_screens() { ?>
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
const milestones = document.querySelectorAll('.av-milestone-even');
if (milestones.length === 0) return;
const mediaQuery = window.matchMedia('(max-width: 989px)');
const reorderMilestones = () => {
if (mediaQuery.matches) {
milestones.forEach(milestone => {
const date = milestone.querySelector('.av-milestone-date');
const icon = milestone.querySelector('.av-milestone-icon-wrap');
const content = milestone.querySelector('.av-milestone-content-wrap');
if (date && icon && content) {
milestone.innerHTML = '';
milestone.appendChild(date);
milestone.appendChild(icon);
milestone.appendChild(content);
}
});
}
};
reorderMilestones();
mediaQuery.addEventListener('change', reorderMilestones);
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'change_the_order_of_milestone_even_on_mobile_screens', 99 );
Please ensure to copy the code from the forum and not an email notification so the symbols are not converted.
If you are not using a child theme you could use the WP Code plugin then add a new snippet, in the top right corner use the PHP snippet as the code type:

and ensure that it is activated, then add the above code and save.

Mike

Hallo Enfold-Team,
ich habe für den Blog Kategorien angelegt. Wenn ich eine daraus auswähle erscheint eine Übersichtsseite, die alle getaggten Artikel auflistet. Leider passt die Seite von der Optik her überhaupt nicht ins Design. Die Fotos fehlen, es ist kein Titelbild drin und die Seite sieht sehr technisch aus und unübersichtlich.
Kann man die gestalten und wenn ja, wie?
I’ve created categories for my blog. When I select one, an overview page appears that lists all tagged articles. Unfortunately, the page doesn’t fit the design at all. The photos are missing, there’s no cover image, and the page looks very technical and confusing.
Can I customize them, and if so, how?
Kind regards,
Constanze

Hey stefpasi,
You probably have the caption set to “bottom without frame” in the slide:

Try this CSS in your Enfold Theme Options ▸ General Styling ▸ Quick CSS field:
.caption_fullwidth {
position: relative;
top: 20em;
}

adjust to suit.
Best regards,
Mike
Hey Sylvain,
You can use the layerslider with a transparent header like this: https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/
or the fullscreen slider with a transparent header like this: https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/elements/fullscreen-slider/
or add the image as a background image color section: https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/elements/color-section/
this is another color section example with a transparent header: https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/pages/blank-pages/coming-soon-page/

Hey nm,
Thank you for your patience, to move cookie consent bar to top of the DOM so it is first in the tabindex, add the following code to the end of your child theme functions.php file in Appearance ▸ Editor.
The code also adds tabindex to the hidden checkboxes in the moral and hides the “toggle” switches, so the checkboxes can be tabbed to.
When tabbing in the moral you will first be able to tab though the tabs and use the enter key to select one, then keep tabbing to get inside the tab content and tab through the checkboxes. You can use the spacebar to enable/disable the checkboxes.
function move_cookie_consent_bar_to_top_of_dom_so_it_is_first_in_tabindex() { ?>
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
const messageBar = document.querySelector('.avia-cookie-consent-wrap');
const body = document.querySelector('body#top');
body.prepend(messageBar);
});
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
document.querySelectorAll('#av-consent-extra-info input[type="checkbox"]').forEach(checkbox => {
checkbox.setAttribute('tabindex', '0');
});
});
</script>
<style>
#top .av-toggle-switch input[type="checkbox"] {
display: inline;
}
#top .av-toggle-switch .toggle-label-content {
display: inline;
}
#top .av-toggle-switch label .toggle-track {
display: none;
}
</style>
<?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'move_cookie_consent_bar_to_top_of_dom_so_it_is_first_in_tabindex', 99 );
Please ensure to copy the code from the forum and not an email notification so the symbols are not converted.
This may not seem intuitive, so perhaps you will want to try a cookie bar plugin like Borlabs, I don’t know how keyboard tabbing works with it but many Enfold users like it.
If you are happy with just tabbing to accept or reject cookies with just a few tab keys then the above script will work fine, I see that your consent moral only has two checkboxes.
Best regards,
Mike

Hello, I’m trying a version of Enfold 7.0 loaned by a friend, to be sure before buying it. That looks really good! But I encounter a problem that seems basic to me… Impossible to put a background-image header that stretches over the entire width of the header, I can’t find an option for that… Even customizing the css myself. Could you please tell me if this is possible? Many thanks to you!
Hey schweg33,
These are hidden on mobile devices, try this CSS in your Enfold Theme Options ▸ General Styling ▸ Quick CSS field:
@media only screen and (max-width: 325px) {
.responsive #top .avia-post-nav {
display: block;
top: 20%;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 325px) and (max-width: 380px) {
.responsive #top .avia-post-nav {
display: block;
top: 23%;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 381px) and (max-width: 450px) {
.responsive #top .avia-post-nav {
display: block;
top: 25%;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 451px) and (max-width: 767px) {
.responsive #top .avia-post-nav {
display: block;
top: 38%;
}

I’m using NameCheap hosting, have an SSL certificate, have chatted with NameCheap hosting and they modified my php.ini and tested a variety of things and told me I needed to reach out to “kriesi.at” as that’s where the issue is coming from.
No matter what demo I try to install, I get the following error:
Error accessing file for download:
cURL error 28: Connection timed out after 10002 milliseconds
I’ve tried the instructions from the following URL to try to manually install the demos (URL: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/import-demos/ )
“Please add following line to Functions.php file in Appearance > Editor
add_theme_support( ‘avia_demo_store_downloaded_files’ );
Download the zip file of the demo you would like to import from https://github.com/KriesiMedia/enfold-library/tree/master/demos
Extract it in \uploads\avia_demo_files\ folder. If you are importing Enfold 2017 demo, files should be extracted inside \enfold-2017\ so it should look as \uploads\avia_demo_files\enfold-2017\
Go to Enfold theme options > Demo Import and import the demo”
I’m absolutely pulling my hair out…this shouldn’t be this difficult and I have no idea what is wrong….I’ve installed WordPress and themes hundreds of times and NOTHING is working.
Can you offer some assistance? I’ve included both admin credentials to my wordpress installation along with cPanel login details.

Hi,
Please check that you are using Enfold v7.1, and try disabling all of your plugins and then reload the page. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually and reload the page until you find the conflict.
If this doesn’t help please include an admin login in the Private Content area so we can be of more assistance.

Hey oladigital_co,
Thank you for your patience, I don’t have a iPhone, but I tested in Safari on a Mac in Responsive Design Mode iOS simulator, I also checked on live.browserstack.com iOS simulator, and both worked for me, please see the screenshot in the Private Content area.
I do see an error: /?avia_forced_reroute=1 404 (Not Found) in your console, try going to Enfold Theme Options > Custom Error 404 Page > Redirect to selected page and change the settings to “Select page”

you may have an old setting in there.
Please note that testing with iPhones can be hard to clear the cache, often you need to also clear the history to fully purge the cache, following these steps for Safari and note Step 4 where you will Clear the History.

Hi,
*update* I tested the above script that you posted “Fix Yoast SEO pagination compatibility with Enfold theme using avia-element-paging” and it solved the issue on my site
<link rel="canonical" href="https://enfold.site.com/blog/blog-default/?avia-element-paging=2" class="yoast-seo-meta-tag">
If you are not using a child theme you could use the WP Code plugin then add a new snippet, in the top right corner use the PHP snippet as the code type:

and ensure that it is activated, then add the above code without the leading <?php and save.
