    Hello there! I have painstakingly gone through to add a featured image to all of my blog posts (back to 2006). However I can’t get them all done. I have several questions if you can help in Enfold theme (which is awesome-tastic by the way)

    NOTE: I use a child theme and would love to make these changes in Quick CSS if possible:

    1. Can i replace the current default image (white with an arrow) with my own image when NO feature photo has been selected? I want the site to look cleaner and branded.
    2. Can I turn off the lightbox or click on image to increase it’s size? This is only for FEATURE image ( I have disabled other photos from reading posts here).
    3. How can I have the featured photo underneath the header? So it would be
    Header Title
    Date / category / author
    Featured Image

    Thank you in advance! http://planningforever.com/blog

    Hi saundra!

    1.) Are you talking about the image placeholder? You can edit config-templatebuilder > avia-shortcodes > postslider.php, find this code on line 305:

    $thumbnail = "<span class=' fallback-post-type-icon' ".av_icon_string($format)."></span><span class='slider-fallback-image'>{{thumbnail}}</span>";

    2.) Edit js > avia.js, find this code on line 54:

     //activates the prettyphoto lightbox
        $(container).avia_activate_lightbox({callback:'avia_lightbox_callback'});

    Replace it with:

     //activates the prettyphoto lightbox
        //$(container).avia_activate_lightbox({callback:'avia_lightbox_callback'});

    3.) This is possible but it won’t look as good as the original layout. Edit postslider.php again, find this code on line 366:

    $output .= $thumbnail ? "<a href='{$link}' data-rel='slide-".avia_post_slider::$slide."' class='slide-image' title=''>{$thumbnail}</a>" : "";

    Cut it then place it below this code on line 388:

    $markup = avia_markup_helper(array('context' => 'entry_content','echo'=>false));

    Cheers!

    I guess I wasn’t clear. I actually want to change out the image placecard holder with a graphic that will be used every time this needs a place card holder. Does that makes sense?

    Hi!

    The placeholder used on the blog is not an image. It is an icon font. You need to alter the code and add the img tag. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_img.asp

    Best regards,

    Okay, well thanks for your help Ismael! I won’t change anything because I don’t want to mess with hard coding and updates. I finally got on board with Child Themes for that purpose.
