    I was writing about this the other day and that thread is now closed – this dialogue began on the 15th Dec. Link below
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/layered-slider-dimensions-have-changed/
    My problems are not over though. Today I have the page showing at narrower dimensions than are in Enfold > General Layout > Dimensions on Chrome and now in the other browsers. I checked Chrome and FireFox in BrowserStack and they are at a narrow size there too. These dimensions mess up all the Layered slider. I installed the new WordPress 3.1 earlier today (it came out on the 18th, yesterday) hoping that it might fix it – but it didn’t.
    In the previous thread I was told that this had happened to other people. I have tried the suggestion of changing dimansions and then changing it back, and iI have emptied all caches in TotalCache and emptied the browser cache. Do you have a fix yet? my page looks a mess.

    Hi Tim!

    I think the problem relates to your child theme set-up (specifically its name), i noted some errors in the dynamic stylesheet that are not happening when using the parent theme or a child theme i uploaded to test. You can import/export your current theme settings via the Theme Options.

    Cheers!

    Thanks Josue,
    I didn’t understand what you wrote yet but I’ll look in the morning (-5hrs) and give it time to sink in.
    I think you’re telling me to export the settings, create a new child theme and then import.
    I’ll look for a guide on naming conventions.
    Thanks again
    Tim

    Hey Tim!

    Yes, try with a child name with a simpler name without spaces.

    Best regards,
    Josue

    I tried simplifying the name and then making sure there were no spaces in the folder name. When I applied the theme I saw it at the full width for a moment and then it reverted to the narrower width.
    I then tried the child theme as downloaded, leaving it with the name ”Enfold Child”. It so far gave me the full width slider. Not all of the colors are behaving correctly though. I can see the imported settings in the ‘General Styling’ but they are not being obeyed.

    I have a current issue with the menu (link below) as I’m unable to edit the menus. This issue did not disappear with the replaced child theme either
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/menu-color-and-underline-of-active-page. I mention it here in case it is related.

    I’m currently thinking that I need a .dev site to rebuild the site so that everything works, and that for now I need to reproduce the slider and make it work at 1130px until I’m ready. I hope you can come up with some suggestions, maybe you can make unnecessary.

    Hi!

    Try to delete the enfold_child.css file on wp-content > uploads > dynamic_avia folder. Go back to Enfold theme options then toggle any theme or color settings to regenerate the file. If you have any cache or minify plugins, deactivate them while developing the site.

    Cheers!

    I was working on this in December, and have been sidetracked with other things and so have put up with things for a time. I’m now looking at this problem again – or several inter-related problems

    When I first made the site I had it how I wanted but there are now things that I can’t control. The front page http://panamayachtandfishingcharters.com/ and a landing page http://panamayachtandfishingcharters.com/ have color sections that are transparent and so allow the pattern of the background tiles to show.
    If I go to these color sections you can see that they are set to a custom background color rgba(0,0,0,0) but it is not taking the color from there. The transparent color section are taking their color from the setting for Alternate Background color of the Logo area in the general styling tab.
    So, I can get my transparent sections by using the Theme Options setting but something undesirable happens, which I have already written about. When I set an rgba( ) valus for the Alternate Background color the page width changes to a much narrower size. I cannot understand how this happens, but there it is. I do not want a narrow page and it messes up the layered Slider at the top.

    If you know of something that will make the page full width again that would do it, or a way to have the color section accept the rgba value without then taking it’s color from the Alternate Background color of the Logo area (if I change this value the color sections also change color.

    I spent quite a bit of time looking at this in December and have had to focus on other things since then. I’d like to finally get the site looking right.
    For this day I’ve left the site with narrow width and the header banner not working correctly so that the color section transparencies are right.

    Thanks in advance for any help you’re going to give.

    by the way Ismael . I tried deleting the file from the dynamic-avia folder in Uploads but it did not regenerate and I had the page on the screen with all the color information gone. I copied it back onto the server from my PC.

    My other issue also mentioned above is that I can’t edit the menu. I installed a standard theme and it worked, and then didn’t work when I put Enfold back in it’s place. I can’t create a new page without it taking a place i the main menu, and I can’t add other types of posts or links to the menu – I have no editing at all..

    Hi!

    Do you mind creating a temporary admin login and posting it here privately?

    Hi!

    please go into the settings of your W3 Total Cache plugin and deactivate caching. Then switch off all plugins, clear browser cache and refresh your page a few times. If that does not work ask your host if they are using any caching.
    If that does not help neither you might need to delete Enfold completely via FTP and get a fresh copy from your themeforest account.

    Best regards,
    Andy
