I have recently been asked to convert a simple html site to wordpress and cannot create a simple link to a downloadable .exe file stored on the same server. The site is
http://visionitsystems.ltd.uk and the .exe file resides at: http://visionitsystems.ltd.uk/exe_files/visionit.exe

WordPress is being very clever and suggesting the page/post does not exist and directs me to the default 404 page of the theme. How do I get around this please, or am I just being stupid!@

Many thanks in advance

Hello:

I have been working with your Enfold theme and really like it a lot. Thank you :)

I have a few issues with the site that I’m building and I’m hoping you can help. Otherwise, please let me know if these are customizations I would need to have someone make.

1. On my home page (I’m using a static page) I am trying to create the look of a 4column 2 row grid of images (some with links and some without) but I want to have no space between the rows or the colums. I need every square image to butt up to the next. See screen grabs. I tried using the portfolio grid feature, but that creates padding all around the images, as well as putting 1 image in each 1/4 column on the page. So, I figured out that if I built it in a text frame, importing images and sizing them to be exactly 257.7px x 257.5px so as to create 4 columns and 2 rows that would give the appearance I wanted. However, since I need a second row, and this is in the text editor feature of the advanced layout, it’s putting padding or line spacing or a break between each line. Can you tell me how to remove that white space? Code of text box is below (and screen grabs are here:

2. I have a link in the top navigation called “Schedule” and it the takes traffic to a different website for scheduling class times with teachers, is there a way to have that link open in a new window/tab? I don’t want to have people click that menu item and go away from the site. All of the rest of the references to the “Schedule” open in new tabs/windows – I just can’t figure it out for the top navigation, which I set it up directly in the Menu panel.

3. On the home page, I have a Blog Slider step up inside of a color box/block. Is there a way to change the type (color, size) for the blog titles, dates and excerpts? They are little hard to read on the color that I need to use behind them. Also, is there a way to remove the dates from blog postings if desired? I know I can go in and manually change the date it was posted, but can I have it simply not show up on the blog slider, and possibly not show up in the blog itself?

4. On the “Contact us” page I am using the google map widget, but is there a way to make the map taller? The map is using the width of the column that it’s in, which is great, but it won’t let me change the height of the map displayed for some reason?

Please let me know if you need any additional screen grabs. They site isn’t live, yet but if needed I can make it live temporarily for you to see.

Thank you so much!

Hi there,

actually I have the following problem: when changing to advanced editor the post looks completely different to other posts.

The post I am talking about is: http://bit.ly/1a9mRQZ
– post image is not shown, but is shown on the blog overview page
– the post title is displayed in the header section left of breadcrumbs and not below the post image (see above)
– no comment functionality
– no other interesting links shown etc.

Simply compare to other posts, e.g. when you click left: post image is not shown, too (?), but all the other things are ok.

Thx for your help.

Hello,

On our single post pages, could you share a CSS snippet on how to hide the featured image on the top of the page.

For example, this red ribbon image was set as the featured image. We would still like the image to appear as the post thumbnail, but not as a big image when you are on the post page itself.

You can view this here:

Thanks!

Hi,

I absolutely love the new masonry portfolio option! Is it possible to overlay a JPG or animated GIF over a masonry image on mouse-over / hover?
Basically: the same/similar to a single product page in woo commerce, which displays a “arrow inside a blue circle” icon as soon as the mouse hovers over the product image.

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Is there a way to create a portfolio item with one side determined, like height, but the other free, so I can do a fixed slider with different image sizes that would fit in without being cut or stretched but still maintain clean view of the item?

Thank you!

Hi,

I want to style my accommodation listings page like the entries in this image. Can somebody suggest a way to customise the CSS in the blog posts layout to achieve this.
As a side (but essential) issue I need some of the listings to offer the read more link (a paid upgrade) and some to not.
All suggestions much appreciated

Andy
