    Hi.

    History: My client needs background ads on his website. Using Enfold on his site (test.wizs.com) allowed me to put the background ads in the 1st and 3rd columns in a 3 column grid row which then made his background ads responsive. the 2nd column in the middle was set to 3/5 so that content and a right sidebar could be included in that area. We can’t thank you enough for your theme… it has helped tremendously to clear up quite a few problems that have plagued us for this site.

    Current Problem: As part of that solution, we put the content on the left side in the 3/5 column using a 3/4 column inside of the 3/5 column. A 1/4 column was then put to the right of the 3/4 column inside of the 3/5 column to act as the right side bar in that grid row on test.wizs.com. Our current problem is that we can’t figure out how to implement that template (blank page layout grid row) so that our posts will use it.

    We also need to implement 3 ads into what will come up with any new posts on test.wizs.com.

    We use a plugin for the ads, and I understand that sometimes you all defer to the plugin developer when you see words like “plugin” in a question. Please ignore that and understand I am not asking about the plugin. The plugin uses widgets… and the three ads that I need to appear in the posts are widgets… which makes it a theme question. I have already tested the ads using other widgets on the site and they work fine. My problem is figuring out how to get the three widgets to be located where i need them in the post “template” if you will…

    widget titles are:
    Inside Posts – Bottom Left Ad
    Inside Posts – Bottom Right Ad
    Inside Posts – Top Left Ad

    Any help that you can provide on this will be greatly appreciated! This is one of the very lasts steps to finishing the redesign for this site and it has taken a long time because of multiple issues.

    Sincerely,
    Jeannie

    Hi. I’m sorry to bug you all… but this matter is urgent… we have been trying for a while to get this resolved through other means and with your support forum. If we dont get this resolved soon and migrate the test site over to the live domain…. we cold loose customers that pay for advertising… Can anyone advise how I could get this resolved?

    Hi,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    Our current problem is that we can’t figure out how to implement that template (blank page layout grid row) so that our posts will use it.

    Could you please provide a link to the page where you’re testing this layout? Maybe, we can use css to remove the header, footer and socket of the single post page, much like a blank layout template.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Ismael,

    The template that I referred to as “blank page layout grid row” was a template in the advanced layout editor.

    We dont want to remove the header and footer……. we want posts to show up in a text box area inbetween the left background ad space and the right side bar (horizontally) and inbetween the footer area and the header area (vertically)… I will create a picture to display what we are trying to accomplish…..

    Thanks,
    Jeannie

    Above is a clear image of the backend of what the post page template would look like. you can see at the top the name of the page… and the link for the page….

    null
    the pic above has writing on it which explains what is trying to be solved within the template page that i created….

    in addition to the problems that i am trying to solve to get the “post template” page working right……just as a page….. is the problem of trying to get it to work with posts auto populating into this layout. i have no clue how to do that… and am praying you all can help…

    null
    This is how to make text wrap around the ad widget… from the plugin side… but i am not sure if the title box or the text box would block the text from inside of it from wrapping around the widget somehow… i am also not sure if i should use a title box or a text box… but instead should use some sort of code to pull in the title from the post and the text from the post

    the third image in the last message was not included for you all to give help on the plugin…. on the contrary – i only included that pic to help you all understand that i have the plugin side worked out.. and i would like you to know that i have also tested it and it does work on another website..

    Hi,

    Thank you for the info. Please try to combine the widget area, title and text inside a single text or code block element.

    
<div class="alignleft custom_widget">[av_sidebar widget_area='NAME OF THE WIDGET AREA']</div>
Title Here

Text Here

    We wrapped the widget area inside a div container with a unique class attribute so that we can apply the following css modification.

    .custom_widget {
    float: left;
    width: 30%;
}

    Best regards,
    Ismael
