Thanks very much Yigit , for your answer ; I really appreciate your response.
If you have any time, I also have some additional questions ; thanks a ton for your precious time and support.

1- Is a SITEMAP.xml is a MUST for google to crawl all of my content? (portfolio items, posts, anything)?

2- What is the best way to have a S I T E M A P.xml for all the POSTS and PORTFOLIO items, WITHOUT using a plugin.
I really do not want to rely on plugIns for anything.

You can see my site’s structure below, it will have a lot of content..:

3-Do portfolio items harder to “catch / crawl” for the sitemap / google for the SEO purposes?
Or they are just like the Blog posts.?

And please let me know how should I implement the necessary actions to build a sitemap which includes both PORTFOLIO items and BLOG POSTS and rebuilds itself dynamically when I add any posts or portfolio items.

Considering my website will have a lot of content, I don’t want to have a PHP code which will loop and construct the whole sitemap.xml from zero again and again , I just want a php script that adds ONLY the very last portfolio item or blog post to THE ALREADY EXISTING siteMap.XML

I am using a child theme , so please let me know which functions I have to add to which php files.

4– Would it be so hard to create a sitemap.XML file inside my PUBLIC_HTML folder and update it MANUALLY by hand each time when I create a blogPost , or Portfolio item? (as described here , I am talking about adding each of my new content MANUALLY by hand to the xml file as described there.)

http://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html

5– update (2.6) issues Note: I am using a child theme.

a) And friends, after the update (the latest, 2.6) I have almost all of previously configured CSS fineTunings lost. (for example, UL list style type:none settings, PAGES Widget’s current page CSS formatting, Widget font stylings, footer / socket border stylings etc. doesn’t work.) Have an idea? Maybe you erased the responsible css selectors within the new update? I don’t use anything fancy, (no plugins right now, I don’t even use a slider, and I just use the font Verdana)

b) firefox doesn’t load the portfolios’ featured images at first, they only appear when I refresh the page once again.

c) internet Explorer 8 has an issue with logo imageSize , logo looks weird. Retina Logo image doesn’t look like as it should be ; it should look the half size of its original , but it doesn’t shrink.
And IE8 also has some CSS issues.

6- Is there a way to cancel the animation (fade in, and movement into the place) of the each portfolio item’s featured image?

Thanks for everything, I am really grateful, and again please forgive me for being an headache :) .
Sorry if all this sounds a little naive, that’s just because I don’t know PHP.

Kind Regards,
Bedros

Ismael –

That’s great news and I like Kriesi’s thinking that is exactly what I was thinking would be a nice solution.
enfold is my favorite theme and I really like the ability to use full screen movies.
Do you have any thoughts on how to take care of the warning I am getting

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_fopen=0 in /nfs/c10/h02/mnt/176353/domains/oceanportalproject.org/html/wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/php/function-set-avia-frontend.php on line 576

Best regards,

George

Hi Peter,

erstmal Danke für deine Mühen und Hilfen.
Das mit dem Inputfeld klappt. Aber mit dem Header leider immer noch nicht.
Ich habe es mit ie Tester und ie8 renderer getestet. Wie bereits erwähnt, ist
das menü nur im ie8 grau hinterlegt. Ich habe mal im Styling Bereich
Hintergrundfarbe weiss und einfach mal gestricheltes Linien im
Hintergrund gewählt. Nach dem der Cache (über Cloudflare) gelöscht wurde,
ist das Menü gestrichelt mit weissem Hintergrund. Irgendwie ist die Transparenz
noch drin, so dass er das Menü wie den Hintergrund gestaltet.

Wichtig: Der Hintergrund ganz oben im Social Bereich muss leicht gräulich bleiben #f8f8f8
Das ist jetzt auch so hinterlegt.

Die Anweisungen bezüglich des Quick CSS habe ich befolgt. Zuerst enfold.css
gelöscht und dann unter enfold im Styling Bereich save all changes gewählt.
Der Ordner ist 777, enfold.css 604 und index.php 604.

Gruß

Hi Dude,

thanks for your help – that worked well to reduce the number of post formats displayed in the backend.

How do I have to insert the code for the child theme’s functions.php in order to make adjustments of the post format entypo-fontello icons that can be found in the parent’s theme functions.php (line 154 ff). Or can I simply use CSS to adjust that? If yes – how?

$avia_config['font_icons'] = apply_filters('avf_default_icons', array(

Thanks for your support so far!

Okay, looks like I found the culprit for the issue…

My server had eaccellerator installed which was unable to handle the theme’s php requests. The error itself was not that helpful, but I am including it in case anyone else has the same issue

——
child pid 2575 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

Thanks for the reply,

The problem is getting the video to “swap out” in the same player. I want to create kind of a “playlist” of different video that can be played “onclick”. Check out the sample below and let me know what you think. is it possible in enfold?

Perfect! Thank you Peter!! Google powered search rocks! misspellings, semantic matches so much superior

Here’s some CSS adjustments to the Google results page I made that may help others:

.gsc-resultsHeader {display: none;}
.gsc-orderby-container {display: none;}
.gs-bidi-start-align {padding-left: 7px;}
.gsc-thumbnail{padding: 8px 0 11px 8px;}

Customization to results styles can be made at your Google CSE interface.

Subscribe to the ads-free results and you may also remove Google branding:
.gcsc-branding {display: none;}

Note in search.php I inserted the google search script in lieu of the existing search replacing lines 21-47:

<section class="search_form_field">
                            <?php
                            echo "<h4>".__('New Search','avia_framework')."</h4>";
                            echo "<p>".__('If you are not happy with the results below please do another search','avia_framework')."</p>";

                            get_search_form();
                            echo "<span class='author-extra-border'></span>";
                            ?>
                        </section>
                    </div>

                    <?php
                    if(!empty($_GET['s']))
                    {
                        echo "<h4 class='extra-mini-title widgettitle'>{$results}</h4>";

                        /* Run the loop to output the posts.
                        * If you want to overload this in a child theme then include a file
                        * called loop-search.php and that will be used instead.
                        */
                        $more = 0;
                        get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'search' );

                    }

                    ?>

Hope this will help other Enfold aficionados :)
