Hi
I’m totally new to this wordpress thing, anyways, what I have so far is this: http://ground-studios.com/site2016/
I puzzeled together a lot of CSS sniplets from different forum posts. I like the breadcrumbs, fixed unter the top navbar, but it seems the portfolio page doesn’t take it into account for the top margin. I didn’t found a way to bring it further away from the top. I also couldn’t get the filters to work. hide Pages titles is unchecked for the portfolio side.
WordPress 4.5.2 is the version I use.

thanks in advance
Michael

Hi
Well, I want the portfolio images not stick directly under the breadcrumbs. want to give them some space.

Furthermore I wasn’t able to make Categories visible on top of the Portfoliopage. Looked pretty easy here: https://community.theme.co/kb/portfolios/
I assume I use some CSS code, that blocks it, maybe?

This is the code I currently use:

body .site { background-color: black; }
body.x-navbar-fixed-top-active .x-navbar-wrap { height: 109px; }
.x-navbar { background-color: black; }
.x-topbar { background-color: black; }
.x-logobar { background-color: black; }
.x-brand { background-color: black; }
/*.x-colophon { background-color: red; }
.x-colophon.top { background-color:red; }*/
.x-colophon.bottom { background-color:black; }
.x-social-global { background-color: black; }
/*Breadcrumb Pos, color*/
.x-breadcrumb-wrap { background-color: #282828; position: fixed; width: 100%; z-index: 1000; }
.x-breadcrumbs .current { color: #eaeaea; }
/*Breadcrumb static for mobile*/
@media (max-width: 979px) { .x-breadcrumb-wrap { position: static; }}
/*Portfolio single Sites BG*/
.x-portfolio { background-color: black; }
/*portf chain icon go away*/
.entry-thumb:before { background-color: transparent; content: ""; }
/*portf mouse hover tint color*/
.entry-thumb { background-color: #ffffff; }
/*Back BG on Portfolio main*/
.page .site,
.option-set .x-index-filter-label, .option-set .x-portfolio-filter-label,
.option-set .x-index-filters, 
.option-set .x-portfolio-filters,
.option-set .x-portfolio-filters i { background-color: Black; }
/*No Border around portf Images*/
.has-post-thumbnail .entry-featured {
    border: none;
    background-color: transparent;
    text-align: center;
		}
/*remove Portf social icons*/
.single-x-portfolio .x-entry-share { display: none; }

/*change to smaller logo on mobile */
@media (max-width: 979px) {
   .x-brand {
      width: 235px; /* Change WIDTH accordingly */
      height: 80px; /* Change HEIGHT accordingly */
      background: url(http://ground-studios.com/site2016/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/logo_mobile.png) no-repeat center top;
      margin-top: 0;
      background-size: 235px 80px; /* Width x Height - Adjust accordingly */
   }
   .x-brand img {display: none;}
}
/* show page title for Portfoilo only */
.page-template-template-layout-portfolio .x-header-landmark { 
    display: block; 
}

many thanks in advance
Michael

Hello Michael,

Thank you for the clarification. To assist you with this issue, we’ll first need you to provide us with your URL. This is to ensure that we can provide you with a tailored answer to your situation. Once you have provided us with your URL, we will be happy to assist you with everything. I found this link above your CSS:http://www.ground-studios.com/ but that is not using X theme.

[GroundStudios]

correct, the site using X-Theme is here: http://www.ground-studios.com/site2016 . Current state is that we decided against a portfolio. So right now there is no support needed.

Maybe you can help me with a short explanation what’s the usual workflow to switch form the old to the new site? Can I just move the old to another folder and place the new directly at top level? Do i have to do a full reinstall of wordpress?

many thanks
Michael

Hi there,

It’s not simple as that and there is no universal way of doing it. It depends on the original site’s structure and your destination’s site’s structure (eg. layout, settings, templates, and etc.) . It’s best to consult to a developer and have your site’s analyzed, it’s very first step and the important one when transitioning to different theme and structures.

And please check this for installing WordPress https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress

Thanks!
