Peter:

Thank you very much for your expertise. Most of the issues I have figured out and it looks like the theme will work for me. The few things I want to have control over such as fade speed and the Pretty Photo settings I can go into the Enfold JS files and edit the settings then it reflects in the child. For me it’s easier to do it that way than to create new JS directories within the Child hierarchy because I can take advantage of Enfold updates and just make a couple edits each time as it doesn’t happen that often.

It would be great if you could add a “slideshow transition speed” control function beneath “slideshow transition” drop-down. And also great if you could control the Pretty Photo functions from within WP, but that’s not as important.

However, I do have a couple basic questions that I must resolve before I can continue–The site in progress: http://blaircomm.us/blaircomm14/:

1. How do you set an existing page as the”home page”in Enfold? I have all WP settings to the latest post and have set the page in the Enfold Child settings–however nothing happens. Do I just rearrange the menus or what? I know it’s a stupid question, but I can’t find the answer anywhere. (I also have trouble with server latency from Network Solutions, so certain updates sometimes take up to 1/2 hour to show and it may be the reason.)

2. How do I create a new “home” page in Enfold? When I try, even though it is from a template of one of Enfold’s pre-configured home pages, it shows up as a “page” with the “you are here…” menu at the top. How can I create a “home” page from scratch and have it at the top of the hierarchy with no “you are here…” menu?

3. How can I insert a “layer slider” that is a full page like the “one-page portfolio” sample page you have that uses a”full screen slider?” Do I need to make a “full screen layer slider” and how can I get it to function as a full-page just like the”full-screen slider?” Or, can I insert a “layer-slider” into the “full-screen slider” as a media element of like an image? Point me in the right direction as I want to have four or five rotating slides for the one-page portfolio type home page that are “layer sliders.”

4. Last question: How can I adjust the column width in the “mega-menu?” They are much too wide for the menu listings and I need to be able to configure them to work according to the content.

Thank you very much.

Hi Devin, I was looking for a way to swap out the color section at the top of this page with the image slider underneath on responsive media. I saw there was some way to add a css code but could not find it. The 2.6.1 update made too many problems on my site – I know there are some extra settings for videos which is why I wanted to update, but would rather have it swap out if that’s possible.

thanks

2) Entypo icons in navigation instead of bullets

Go to Design > Menu and open your menu item. Add the class .mapicon into the field CSS-Class (optional) (if this is not shown, look at the top of the Menu page with options and check “CSS Class”

Then use this CSS:

/* MAP ICONS instead of bullets in main navigation */
.mapicon .avia-bullet:before {
display: none;
} 

.header_color .mapicon .avia-bullet {
display: none;
}

.mapicon {
content: "\E842";
font-family: 'entypo-fontello';
font-size:16px;
line-height: 30px;
padding-right: 10px;
float: left;
clear: both; 
}

Thanks for your help, support team – can be closed now :)

Thanks alot for your help. Here are the solutions so far as a summary:

1) Sidebar nested Navigation

In the functions.php:

/*
* MYSUBNAVI - Display a subnavigation for pages that is automatically generated, so the users doesnt need to work with widgets
*/
if(!function_exists('avia_sidebar_menu'))
{
    function avia_sidebar_menu($echo = true)
    {
        $sidebar_menu = "";

        $subNav = avia_get_option('page_nesting_nav');
  
        
        $the_id = @get_the_ID();
        $args 	= array();
		global $post;

        if($subNav && $subNav != 'disabled' && !empty($the_id) && is_page())
        {
            $subNav = false;
            $parent = $post->ID;
            $sidebar_menu = "";

            if (!empty($post->post_parent))
            {
                if(isset($post->ancestors)) $ancestors  = $post->ancestors;
                if(!isset($ancestors)) $ancestors  = get_post_ancestors($post->ID);
                $root		= count($ancestors)-1;
                $parent 	= $ancestors[$root];
            }

            $args = array('title_li'=>'', 'child_of'=>$parent, 'echo'=>0, 'sort_column'=>'menu_order, post_title');

            //enables user to change query args
            $args = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_args', $args, $post);

            //hide or show child pages in menu - if the class is set to 'widget_nav_hide_child' the child pages will be hidden
            $display_child_pages = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_display_child', 'widget_nav_hide_child', $args, $post);

            $children = wp_list_pages($args);

            if ($children)
            {
$default_sidebar = false;
$parentpage = get_the_title($post->post_parent);
$parentpagelink = get_permalink($post->post_parent);
$sidebar_menu .= "<div class='widget widget_nav_menu'><h3 class='my-parent-item'><a href=";
$sidebar_menu .= $parentpagelink;
$sidebar_menu .= ">";
$sidebar_menu .= $parentpage;
$sidebar_menu .= "</a></h3><ul class='nested_nav'>";
$sidebar_menu .= $children;
$sidebar_menu .= "</ul></div>";
            }
        }

        $sidebar_menu = apply_filters('avf_sidebar_menu_filter', $sidebar_menu, $args, $post);

        if($echo == true) { echo $sidebar_menu; } else { return $sidebar_menu; }
    }
}

Here is the CSS I used:

/* NESTED SUBMENU */
.sidebar_left .my-parent-item {
padding-left: auto;
padding-right: 3px;
font-weight: normal;
font-color: blue;
top: 1px;
margin-top: -1px;
padding-top: 1px;
width: 100%;
box-shadow: 0px 1px 0px 0px #DADADA;
}

.sidebar_left .nested_nav .current_page_item {
padding-left: auto;
padding-right: 52px;
top: 1px;
margin-top: -1px;
padding-top: 1px;
width: 100%;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 1px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
background: #f8f8f8;
font-size: 16px;
}

.main_color a:hover, .main_color li a:hover {
background: #f8f8f8;
padding-left: auto;
}

.widget_nav_menu a { padding-right: 52px; width: 100%; }
.sidebar_left .inner_sidebar { margin-right: 0; }

Excellent!!

The issue has been solved! The support has been very useful, thank you guys!

OK – BBpress reinstalled (over the top) – no change – so I removed BBPress and installed it again from scratch – no change

The formatting is still really off
