    Hi guys, I have a few problems I’m trying to solve or understand with this theme. While I can find many similar questions on the forum I find the answers so specific to that user’s website as to be useless in helping me understand how to solve my issue!

    I hope you’ll bare with me if I put things into one post for now rather than spam you with multiple topics (or is that the preferred way?)

    1. How do I control the top/bottom spacing (padding or margin) of a layout block?
    2. How do I style the text and padding inside a particular (not all) button
    3. I have a page as footer (new feature) and cannot get the facebook widget right. When the screen sizes to mobile it has a big white background to the right? I am not sure I am including it properly (widget area) but seem to have no control over this white. Is there a shortcode method or some other method?
    4. How do I vertically align images?
    5. I have three images with links in the “footer” (page as…) – on rollover one displays a white overlay and blue icon (dont want that!) and other two just show a tooltip with the image file name (dont want that either!) I want some other kind of indication that it is a link, more subtle – where are the choices for this and if an icon/overlay where are the settings for that? Why are the rollovers different even though all are same image elements and all are png? (I re-did them as clones but the rollover behaviour didn’t change)
    6. How do I switch off the breadcrumbs – again, many similar questions, surely this is a basic element that has off/on? I cannot find that setting!
    7. How do I add a link in the copyright socket? If I add an tag it just gets truncated right there at the start of the tag.

    I am a designer and lately very used to using Divi theme/builder which gives far superior and comprehensive options to style each and every element and line of text as well as apply custom css to the particular item or module etc. However I find your standard items like portfolio etc much better out the box but then I’m frustrated at the lack of styling control and customisation options. I find it extremely difficulty to understand what to address/target in the css for the item from a web inspector view of the element – there is just so much data I don’t really understand what I need to identify to target. This is what I see in all the replies you guys provide, but as I said it is so specific to that user that its useless to me and this forum has lots of answers but lacks knowledge and learning opportunity because of your excellent but very specific answers.

    If I’m not going about asking this stuff properly please feel free to correct me as to a better way.
    Thanks!

    Oh I found the answer to #6 – switching off the breadcrumbs – I knew there had to be a switch somewhere! :)

    Hi patricknh,

    Can you please be more specific which elements you need help with?

    I do not see the three images in the footer, I see just one.
    7. Here is how to edit the copyright link.

    Hey Victoria – there is the first one in column 2 from left (NHBRC logo) and the next column (3) the two “property” company logos – those are the three images. Thanks

    Hello? Is it possible to get an answer, 24 hours later now?

    Did you see those images or not – do you have an answer for me?

    Maybe I have to make new topics for all these questions then. It is very frustrating having to wait for answers so long as I cannot complete that work. I am beginning to feel I made a not too good decision to get the client to buy this theme! Customisation is proving very difficult and not intuitive at all. I cannot find good answers in this forum, they all only suit the person who asked and are specific to their site. There is no learning opportunity!

    I will post one by one and each case separately in future as it seems that is the only way you answer?

    #948530

    Hi patricknh,

    No, we don’t see the images. Please upload them to the service like Dropbox and give us the links here.

    There are plenty of learning opportunities here:

    Home

    Here is the code for the footer image overlay, you can put in Enfold > General Styling > Quick Css,  if it does not work, put into themes/enfold/css/custom.css

    
    .avia-image-container.avia-builder-el-6.el_after_av_textblock  .image-overlay.overlay-type-extern{
      display: none !important;
    }
    

    If you need further assistance please let us know.
    Best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi,
    If you go to any page on the site (there are not many yet) look in the blue footer and you will see them – they are three mono coloured logos, png files: one reads NHBRC, Property24 and PrivateProperty. They are in column 2 and 3. If still not clear see links below for dropbox explanation image.

    That css code you gave does nothing.

    Also I want to address THESE images, not ALL images please. The fact that the same type of image (png) files, in duplicated containers, behave differently is not referenced anywhere.

    From documentation link: if I add this css code then rollover icon/white overlay disappears from ALL images on the site (I do want them in other areas like gallery and portfolio), I just want to address these three by themselves in the footer:

    /* Remove image overlay with circle and arrow */
    .image-overlay {
    display: none !important;
    opacity: 0 !important;
    }

    Also, if I use this code the tool tip now shows filename as well, not the link.

    —update—
    I have managed to remove the tooltips with this function. But is it possible to make the tooltip read something that I can enter somewhere, like “goto xxx”?

    function remove_title_attr(){
    ?>
    <script>
    jQuery(window).load(function(){
    jQuery(‘#wrap_all a’).removeAttr(‘title’);
    jQuery(‘#wrap_all img’).removeAttr(‘title’);
    });
    </script>
    <?php
    }
    add_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘remove_title_attr’);

    Hi patricknh,

    We apologize for the late response.
    1. How do I control the top/bottom spacing (padding or margin) of a layout block?
    Padding can be changed on layout elements though it’s not located on the same tab when you edit it. For example a Columns like 1/1 can be modified in Layout tab, Color Section however have predefined paddings in the Section Layout, as for Grid Row you can change this in the column inside it, just adjust the Cell Padding.
    Margins however doesn’t have any options except use Quick CSS in Enfold > General Styling, if you want to apply it in specific layout element only then you can enable Custom CSS Class first: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/turn-on-custom-css-field-for-all-alb-elements/ then use the class name to apply in Quick CSS.

    2. How do I style the text and padding inside a particular (not all) button
    There’s no option for changing only specific button, however we have Button Sizes to choose from, if this doesn’t help then enabling Custom CSS Class and Quick CSS is the last option.

    3. I have a page as footer (new feature) and cannot get the facebook widget right. When the screen sizes to mobile it has a big white background to the right? I am not sure I am including it properly (widget area) but seem to have no control over this white. Is there a shortcode method or some other method?
    I tried to check your site however it seems you have already used another theme.

    4. How do I vertically align images?
    Putting images in a single column or layout element, align it center, left or right should do it.

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    #950871

    Yes, as you noticed I had to give up on enfold. It just doesn’t allow customization unfortunately. Some nioce features but the compete wrong choice for me. So many support questions for the most basic things and so long to get answers. impossible to work like that. Recreated over a week’s worth of work in Divi in a few hours. Big mistake getting this theme for me, Im a designer, I dont want to overide every single thing in css just to change font styles etc. Maybe you should warn buyers BEFORE THEY BUY that this is not recommended if you want to change anything.

    Also while your answers in this forum seem to work, they are so specific to each person it is impossible to learn from them and one is forced to ask about one’s own individual situation.

    Wish I could get my money back since I will never use this them again but apparently not possible. That sucks too.

    How else can you know if its suitable or not?
    Anyway, cheers and hope you do well with the right kind of users who don’t want to customise

    #950991

    Hi patricknh,

    I understand your position, though I don’t agree with “the theme is not recommended if you want to change anything”, since lots of users like our theme but not all. It has some limitations with the customization of it’s elements but we are already working on making this theme better and more flexible.
    As for the refund, we don’t do the transactions here but you may request it from envato: http://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    Thanks Nikko, I will ask for a refund. This is definitely a theme that may be good for many who are happy with the ready made templates but for me it has been a nightmare. Never have I had to ask so many support questions about something so simple! The site is now almost complete in less than a quarter of the time already spent. I made a wrong decision on this, but equally I believe that being able to try something out is better for all concerned and will not lead to anger and resentment like this!

    Just a note: There are a lot of problems in the theme with fonts – especially in layerslider where they are displayed wrong weights, and even wrong font displayed under correct name! By switching to standard wordpress template and editing slider these problems disappeared until switched back to enfold.

    #951266

    Hi patricknh,

    Thanks for the feedback and pointing out the layerslider issues, we will report this to Kriesi and our devs.
    We apologize for the inconvenience and we hope for the success of your site.

    Best regards,
    Nikko
