    Hi Folks,

    I have to create a Blog for my customer for the first time. So I have some
    questions about that.

    I’ve read your completely blog-documentation but unfortunately some
    questions remain unanswered. ;-/

    Please take a look at the Blog and my screenshots…there you’ll find my
    questions. The first ss is the overview-site and the second ss is the
    view after you click “read more“…so the whole content of the single-entry.
    I hope that my words are clear enough to understand. ;-)

    Thank you for your help in advance!

    Best regards
    Carsten

    Hey Carsten,
    Sorry for the late reply, On your second screenshot, the reason you are not seeing the comment section and other elements on your post is because your post is created with the Advanced Layout Builder, so in this case you will need to add the elements manually into each post.
    For your first screenshot, to change the size of the font, Please try this code in the General Styling > Quick CSS field or in the WordPress > Customize > Additional CSS field:

    .post-entry .entry-content p {
    font-size: 18px !important;
    }

    to change the color of the date and comments, try this css and adjust to suit:

    .date-container,.comment-container a  {
    color: #000 !important;
    }

    To change the color of the post title, please try:

    h2.post-title a {
    color: red !important;
    }

    After you add these changes, Please clear your browser cache and check.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    don’t close the thread! ;-)

    For the moment thank you very much for the pearls of wisdom! :-)

    Best regards

    Hi Mike,

    I’m back on my blog-experiment and we can go on with my questions…are you ready? :-)

    Your last code-snippets work very well…thank you! So far so good, but unfortunately you didn’t
    answer not all of my questions. ;-) So please…would you be so kind and take a further look on
    my first screenshot…and than you’ll see what is missing…thx a lot!

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1124267

    …and please take a look on the link in the private content…it is the draft of the full single-entry-page.
    I putted this code in my css from another customer site:
    ——————————————————————
    .page-id-900 .avia-button-right a.avia-button:hover {
    background: rgba(204, 204, 204, 1) !important;
    }
    ——————————————————————
    Why isn’t that code working on this page, too? I think it depend on the class of the page (.page-id-900).
    Am I right? Which class must here standing?

    Best regards
    Carsten

    Hi Carsten,

    I think I gave you that CSS? It’s targeting a page-id class, so it will only work on that particular page. Which element are you trying to target exactly?

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    #1124572

    Good Evening Rikard,

    are you currently my personal supporter? ;-) Or is Mike just on vacation?
    Thx for your reply!

    Yes, you gave me this snippet. On this page I also want the button react. (top and bottom)
    How I have to correct the snippet correctly?

    Hope Mike is not on vacation and can help me with my other open questions.
    Or maybe also you too? That would be nice! :-)

    Nice evening and I’m looking forward to your new answer(s).

    Best regards
    Carsten

    Hi,
    Sorry for the late reply, I have taken a look at your first image again and see that you would like to move the date to the top under the headline and move the category to the end of your menu.
    Please see the screenshot in Private Content area.
    Try adding this code to the end of your functions.php file in Appearance > Editor:

    function custom_script(){
      ?>
      <script>
    (function($){
      $(document).ready(function(){
    $( 'body' ).each(function() {
    $( this ).find( '.date-container' ).insertAfter( $(this).find('h2.post-title') );
    $( this ).find( '.blog-categories.minor-meta' ).insertAfter( $(this).find('.current-menu-item') );
    });
    });
    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php
    }
    add_action('wp_footer', 'custom_script');

    and this code in the General Styling > Quick CSS field or in the WordPress > Customize > Additional CSS field:

    #top #header .av-main-nav > li > a,.blog-categories.minor-meta > a {
        font-size: 17px !important;
        letter-spacing: 0.04em !important; 
        font-weight: bold;
        padding: 0 10px;
    }
    

    To correct your button hover color please try this css:

    #top.single-post .avia-button-center a.avia-button:hover {
    background: rgba(204, 204, 204, 1) !important;
    }

    Then clear your browser cache and check.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    four-times-sorry for my super late reply! And of course thx for your new answer!

    And again a big sorry – I think my screenshot was not precise enough. ;-/ Please
    take a further look to the new one. I hope now it is clearer for you what I wanna
    do exactly. Note – you have to scroll a little bit down because I did a full-page-
    screenshot. And yes, I changed again the position of date and commentary be-
    cause I think this position is better. ;-)

    Everthing else works fine…thx for the button-snippet!

    I’m looking forward to hear from you again.

    Best wishes
    Carsten

    Hi,
    Thank you for the mock-up image, first, please look in your custom css and remove this css which makes the date & comments meta red:

    .date-container,.comment-container a {
        color: #b41528 !important;
    }

    Then add this code to the end of your functions.php file in Appearance > Editor:

    function new_custom_script(){
      ?>
      <script>
    (function($){
      $(document).ready(function(){
    $( '.post-entry' ).each(function() {
    $( this ).find( '.blog-categories.minor-meta' ).css({'color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'20px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    $( this ).find( '.post-meta-infos' ).css({'border-top':'2px solid #b41528','color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'0px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    });
    });
    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php
    }
    add_action('wp_footer', 'new_custom_script');

    Best regards,
    Mike

    #1131094

    Hi Mike,

    thx very much – the code works great! :-) But for better reading the words I need
    a liittle bit more letter-spacing. Would you please so kind and tell me where in the
    code I add the command? I tried it by myself but I failed. ;-)

    And what I also need to know is where must I activate the commentary-function
    for a single-blog-entry? Until now I couldn’t find it. I tried many buttons and
    also the footer-function, but nothing worked. ;-/ So, where is the correct button?

    And thx again for your great help! I’m looking forward again to hear from you.

    Best wishes
    Carsten

    PS: After I added a second blog-entry a new problem appeared. Please take a
    look at the page and you’ll see. Every element (lines, categorys and date/commentarys)
    is showed twice. That can’t be normal. Ok, I see…with every new entry the mistake
    multiplies…hmm…very strange. :-/ Look at the new screenshot if you can’t see the page.

    PPS: Sorry, but in the meanwhile I noticed a further little problem. The blog-page is
    only shown in Safari at the moment. In every other browser (FF/Vivaldi/Opera) the
    blog-page is not found. ;-/ I just called my provider but he must look also more detailed
    on the problem. Do you have any explanation for that phenomenon?

    Hi,
    Please remove the code above and leave the second post so I can try again.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    #1131310

    Hi Mike,

    I removed the code above and after this I didn’t do nothing else, as you told me.
    So, I hope it helps.

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1131355

    Hi again Mike,

    short update for the pps:
    I discovered that the blog-page is always shown up if you’re loged in the backend…no matter
    which Browser you use. If you’re not loged-in than the blog-page is not found. So, it seems
    to me that it must be a settings-problem in the backend/theme but I didn’t find it until now. ;-/
    Hopefully you know where you have to look! ;)

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1131585

    Hi Mike,

    here comes the login-data. :) Thx for your help!

    And I must appologize, because you already told me,
    how I get the commentary-function on an single-blog-entry.
    Now I know it too and I already implemented it. So, only the
    other questions are still there to answer. :)

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1132481

    Hi,
    Sorry for the late reply, I believe I have it sorted out now, please try adding this code to the end of your functions.php file in Appearance > Editor:

    function new_custom_script(){
      ?>
      <script>
    (function($){
      $(document).ready(function(){
    $( '.post-entry' ).each(function() {
    $( this ).find( '.blog-categories.minor-meta:first' ).css({'color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'20px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    $( this ).find( '.post-meta-infos:first' ).css({'border-top':'2px solid #b41528','color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'0px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    });
    });
    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php
    }
    add_action('wp_footer', 'new_custom_script');

    Best regards,
    Mike

    #1132724

    Good evening Mike,

    thx for your new code! It works fine, but sorry – not perfect. Take a look again
    by yourself. The multiply-effect is gone but the categorys, date and commen-
    tarys are still shown two times.

    And: for better reading I need a liittle bit more letter-spacing.
    Would you please so kind and tell me where in the code I add the command?

    And: you still can’t see the blog-page if you don’t loged-in
    in the backend.

    I’m looking forward to your new answer.

    Best regards
    Carsten

    Hi Mike,

    I have a further request, but of course the other questions comming first. ;-)

    I wanna change also a little bit the commentary-function. Please take a look on
    the screenshot. I think you’ll understand immediately. :-)

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1134171

    Hi,
    Sorry for the late reply, I have adjusted the blog script and added it to your theme it seems to be correct now, please clear your browser cache and check. Also please see the screenshot in Private Content area.
    This is the updated function:

    function blog_custom_script(){
      ?>
      <script>
    (function($){
      $(document).ready(function(){
    $( 'article.post-entry' ).each(function() {
    $( this ).find( '.blog-categories.minor-meta' ).css({'color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'20px','letter-spacing': '2px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    $( this ).find( '.post-meta-infos' ).css({'border-top':'2px solid #b41528','color':'#969696','font-size': '17px','font-weight': 'bold','margin-top':'0px','letter-spacing': '2px'}).insertBefore( $(this).find('h2.post-title.entry-title ') );
    });
    });
    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php
    }
    add_action('wp_footer', 'blog_custom_script');

    You will note that I added 2px letter-spacing, please let us know if you want more spacing.
    Once this part is set we can start working on your other requests.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    thx for your answer! And – good things take time! ;-)

    And if I wanna change the letter-spacing subsequently I see
    where I can do that. :-)

    Ok, now we come to my other requests. Sorry, I know it’s a
    lot but we come right now to the finishing straight. :-)

    Request 1:
    ———————————————————————–
    You still can’t see the blog-page if you don’t loged-in
    in the backend. I really looked everywhere but I didn’t find
    the point. ;-/

    Hi,
    I believe that I solved the missing blog page, it seems at some point the blog page had been selected as a custom footer for your site, and then the setting was changed but not cleared in Enfold > Footer > drop-down options I cleared the option choice and checked in another browser that was not logged in and your blog page showed.

    #1135464

    Good Evening Mike,

    thx for your new reply…yes, now everthing works fine again! :-)
    Thanks a lot! Hmm, that problem was a little bit tricky, wasn’t it?
    But now I’ll remember this next time – hopefully! ;-)

    So, just “one” little request is left. ;-) (Reply #1133881)

    Have a nice weekend and I’m looking forward again to hear from you.

    Best regards
    Carsten

    #1135482

    Hi,
    Yes, that was tricky :) For your last issue:
    To increase the font size, please try this css:

    .comment-entry.post-entry,.comment-entry.post-entry p,.comment-entry.post-entry a,.comment-entry.post-entry label,.comment-entry.post-entry span {
    font-size: 20px !important;
    }

    To adjust the button, try this css:

    #respond #submit {
    font-size: 20px !important;
    border-radius: 20px;
    }

    To adjust the comment circle, try this css:

    .comment-count {
        height: 120px !important; 
        width: 120px !important; 
        line-height: 120px !important; 
    }

    Please adjust the sizes to suit.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    #1135668

    Hi,
    I added this for you to remove this line:

    top .main_color article.post-entry .post_delimiter {
    border-color: transparent !important; 
    }
