Hi
!) I’m just looking into the possibilities I have with the “recent posts” element ( http://demo.theme.co/ethos-1/shortcodes/recent-posts/ ) Is there a way to use the images, and the images only? no text, no margin, no borderline?

2) I also noticed that the featured Image is not used in the gallery, I guess I have to make a seperate image for the portfolio list page? It is used when Media Type is Image though.

Thanks
Michael

Hello Michael,

Thanks for writing in!

1] Yes there is. Simply edit your page in Cornerstone and add the following css code in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.x-recent-posts a {
    padding: 0;
    border: none;
    box-shadow: none;
}

.x-recent-posts .x-recent-posts-content {
    display: none;
}

2] In portfolio items, you must select which kind of media you want to display. If selecting a “Gallery,” simply upload your images to this post and organize them in the order you want them to display. This is because a gallery slider will be displayed unless other wise you want to display only the feature image so you need to set as Image.

Hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes.

Awesome! thank you!
But I have some follow up questions:
1. I’m using recent posts with 3 Posts in vertical fashion. between the images there is a little gap. I would love to get rid of it, so the images dock directly to each other.

2. regarding the Portfolio Media type… Yes I understand, but I’m wondering, why with “image” the thumbnail image is used as image on the item page, but as “gallery” it is not.

3. From what I found here in the forums, it’s not that easy to get rid of the Header/footer on the Portfolio item pages.
Especially for Mobile it’s a bit annoying to always land on the header, when stepping through the portfolio with the arrow butttons.
Is it at least possible to reduce the size of the Porfolio Item title and the grey bar behind it?

Thanks
Michael

Hi,

1. You can add this under Custom > Edit Global CSS in the Customizer.

.x-recent-posts.vertical a {
    margin-bottom:0 !important;
}

2. If I understood you correctly, you also want the gallery to show in the item’s page?
I will forward this to our web development team as a feature request.

3. Add this in Custom > Edit Global CSS

.single-x-portfolio .x-header-landmark {
    padding: 10px;
}

.single-x-portfolio .x-header-landmark .h-landmark {
    font-size: 180%;
}

Hope that helps

thanks you, works as expected!

2. I meant that the thumbnail behaves different, when media type is image, or gallery.
As image, it is the actual image on the item page, as gallery it becomes ignored in the gallery slider.
Why?

cheers
Michael

Hi Michael,

Featured image will be shown as featured image on the portfolio index page not matter which media type you select. But it will be shown on the single portfolio page when the media type is set to “image”. Simply because when you are selecting media type to “gallery”; you supposed to have a gallery on the single page and featured image won’t look good there and might be repetitive. So what you are getting is pretty expected and there is UX logic behind that.

Hope this makes sense.
