You’ll notice on this page: http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/blog-multi-author/
I’ve got two blog entries.
When you click on the featured image, it takes you to a separate, single page for that blog. Can I a) keep that from happening; and, b) fill up the negative space on the gray box where the logo doesn’t fill it up (see: http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-is-advertising-on-internet-radio/)?
Overall, do you have any suggestions on how to strreamline the blogging? We’ll be using non-tech’y types and I want it to be as simple as possible.

Next issue:
When I go to insert a picture (via the media manager / media library), I know that some themes have “insert picture from URL” but this one doesn’t. Is there a way to make that happen?March 27, 2014 at 1:16 pm #243813Hey garyguthrie!
1.) You can add this on Quick CSS or custom.css to remove the link on featured image:
.template-page .big-preview a { pointer-events: none; }
2.) The theme’s template like the portfolio can only accept thumbnails or images that is uploaded on the wp media library. You can’t use the default “Insert from URL” on the theme.
Cheers!
IsmaelMarch 27, 2014 at 2:14 pm #243830Hmm, I tried the fix, but it didn’t work —
See: http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-is-advertising-on-internet-radio/
and you’ll see the icon is still there
and
http://fairfieldcounty.info/trulia-ads-on-internet-radio/
and you’ll see how the featured image doesn’t fit into the box.
So, what do you think?March 30, 2014 at 4:27 am #244938Any follow up thoughts?
gMarch 31, 2014 at 3:35 pm #245477Hi!
Please add following code to Quick CSS as well
.single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; } .single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; } .main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }
Cheers!
YigitMarch 31, 2014 at 9:48 pm #245742Genius! Thank you. I get such great service from you folks.
Now…
Is there a way to keep the height/size of all the featured images the same? See http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/blog-grid/ as an example.March 31, 2014 at 10:22 pm #245754Hi!
You can try adding following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under Styling tab
.avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }
Cheers!
YigitApril 1, 2014 at 4:59 pm #246142Hmm…
Now, images are getting cut-off, like the Radio Advertising Bureau logo in the 2nd post, here:
http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/angel-street-blog/
Thoughts?
I resized it but it didn’t change anything.April 3, 2014 at 7:31 am #246898Hey!
Try to use following code instead:
.page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }
The code will make sure that other pages/sliders are not affected.
Best regards,
PeterApril 3, 2014 at 5:32 pm #247136Nah, that didn’t do it, either. http://fairfieldcounty.info/blog-2/angel-street-blog/
Here’s all the code, as suggested:
.team-img-container img { float: left; }
body .column-top-margin { margin-top: 10px; }
.content, .sidebar { padding-top: 10px; }
.template-page .big-preview a {
pointer-events: none;
}
.single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; }
.single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; }
.main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }
.page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }Thanks for your help on this. I really appreciate the extra lift you’re giving this issue.
April 7, 2014 at 4:27 am #248034Any updated thoughts about this?
April 8, 2014 at 7:10 am #248641Try this one:
.blog-meta a { pointer-events: none !important; }
Cheers!

Please edit functions.php, find this code on line 93:
$avia_config['imgSize']['square'] = array('width'=>180, 'height'=>180); // small image for blogs
Replace it with:
$avia_config['imgSize']['square'] = array('width'=>180, 'height'=>180, 'crop'=>false); // small image for blogs
This will prevent wp from cropping the edges of the small preview image. Regenerate the thumbnails using this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

Thank you for the update.
You’re using version 2.6.1, please update the theme to 2.6.2 then do the changes above. Please download the latest version from your themeforest account then update the theme via FTP. Please refer to this link: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/updating-your-theme-files/
Cheers!
IsmaelApril 12, 2014 at 7:36 pm #250566I did the update, edited the code, and the installation of the thumbnail regenerator and nothing has changed.
See: http://fairfieldcounty.info/angel-street-blog/
Are you sure there’s nothing conflicting from all the styling adjustments you had me make? See below:
.team-img-container img { float: left; }
body .column-top-margin { margin-top: 1px; }
.content, .sidebar { padding-top: 10px; }
.template-page .big-preview a {
pointer-events: none;
}
.single-post .template-blog .blog-meta { display: none; }
.single-post .single-small.with-slider .small-preview { height: auto; }
.main_color .small-preview { background: transparent; }
.page-id-1336 .avia-content-slider .slide-image { min-height: 75px; }
.blog-meta a {
pointer-events: none !important;
}April 14, 2014 at 3:51 pm #251144Hi!
Thank you for the info.
This has nothing to do with css. If you inspect the small preview images, they are cropped on the edges. I’m sorry but did you do the changes above? The images are still cropped which suggests that you didn’t add the crop parameter on the post thumbnail. Also, after installing the regenerate thumbnails plugin, did you use it? Go to Tools > Regen. Thumbnails to regenerate the thumbnails. Make sure that you modify the functions.php as suggested above.
Regards,
IsmaelApril 14, 2014 at 5:52 pm #251223Ismael, my apologies.
I thought I had gone through all the steps for the thumbs regenerator, but I hadn’t. My bad.
Thanks for your patience and guidance through all of this. It’s much appreciated.
