Question on changing stacks

Support
#10

Hello there

thanks for your quick reply.

I would like to insert my logo or write my page title there where ETHOS IS

I did it but nothing changed

I am making a new page in the meantime and here is ok, but I still want to make that space disappear and live only the menu bar with my blog name on the side

Absolutely not. All those are the category of my web sites and contains all the posts. I have tried also to take all the categories ID out but it’s still the same, that one post.

Also I would like to put the top bar (screen shot below) on top of everything.

Can you please tell me the font used for the Header in the DEMO?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi Isabella,

  1. You can change text logo in Theme Options > Header > LOGO AND NAVIGATION > LOGO – TEXT, or you can switch to image logo on the same setting (eg. Theme Options > Header > LOGO AND NAVIGATION > LOGO – IMAGE).

  2. That’s a revolution slider and not a post slider, you can disable that by editing the page and go to page settings.

Though, I’m not sure how it got there, would you mind providing the site’s URL and admin login credentials in the secure note? It’s a blog index page where slider setting isn’t applicable.

  1. About the space, I checked the Mexico page and all I see is a breadcrumb and a title, if you’ referring to the breadcrumbs then please disable it in Theme Options > Header > Breadcrumbs

  2. About the categories, would you mind providing the credentials as requested on #2? I like to check the categories on admin first.

  3. Sure, you can put it on top by adding this code to Theme Options > JS

jQuery( '.x-topbar' ).prependTo('.masthead');

  1. It’s the default font, the Lato font.

Thanks!

Hello there

This I know, but I need it to be on the same line as the menu, in bar, just like the demo. I thought it should go by default, being in the demo. I need to see if it looks better as a logo or just a simple writing, but I need to know how to locate both in that position

Exactly. That’s my problem! It’s not a page and the page setting option is not available. I have no idea how the slider got there. Please help. This is the most urgent thing to fix because as it is it looks awful! :frowning: Thanks

No it’s not breadcrumb. It’s the space that was occupied by the slider. Here again the screen shot below. it’s the space where the red banner is or the Boundless roads title is located. All that grey space need to disappear. I only want the menu bar below the slider, EXACTLY LIKE THE DEMO

Thanks for nr 5 and 6 all good.

I am providing you with credentials

Thank you so much for your help!
cheers
Isabella

Hi Isabella,

Making the logo/site title and menu inline is easy just navigate to Theme Options > Header and set the Layout to Inline



However, before this to work, first we need to remove the Revolution Slider banner you added there. I think you/we added that via a custom template in the Child Theme, I can’t confirm it now because I can not see your Child theme files in the admin dashboard, we need FTP credentials, please provide in a secure note if you don’t mind.

Second, you need to reduce the font-size of your menu (Theme Options > Header > Navbar Font Size), and reduce the font-size of your site title as well (Theme Options > Header > Logo Font Size) so both of them will fit in one line.

If we can do these two things, the issue of extra space in the header and making the site-title and menu inline will be solved.

We will tackle the other issues after this, we will focus on this for now to avoid confusion.

And I recommend, for now please clear and deactivate all your caching feature/plugin, so the changes we are making will take effect immediately.

Thanks,

Hello @friech !

I am sending you the FTP credentials

Hello Isabella,

The issue was caused by this custom php code in your child theme’s functions.php file

// Add a custom slider to selected pages
// =============================================================================
function custom_banner() { 
  $navbar_position = x_get_navbar_positioning();

  if( is_home() || is_archive() || is_single() || is_search() && $navbar_position == 'static-top' ) : ?>
 
    <div class="x-container custom-slider" style="clear: both;">
      <?php echo do_shortcode('[rev_slider alias="post"]'); ?>
    </div>
 
  <?php endif; 
}
add_action('x_after_view_global__brand','custom_banner', 30);
// =============================================================================

I already deactivated it and now the red section is gone.

Please check your site.

Amazing! thank you so much for the quick action.

Could you please also help me with the issue of the posts not displaying please?

Is it possible to have them displayed in cronological order from the last?

thanks much :slight_smile:

#18

Hello Isabella,

The WordPress default in displaying the post items is in chronological order from the latest to the oldest post items. Modifying this default setting could be done. It is just that there might be issues later on that you will encounter. And besides, this is a custom modification which also falls outside the scope of our support.

If you want, you may refer to this link to accomplish what you have in mind.

Please note that custom coding is outside the scope of our support. Issues that might arise from the use of custom code and further enhancements should be directed to a third party developer.

Best Regards.

Hello RUel,
please read my question again.

I was just asking whether the post would be displayed in chronological order and you had just confirmed that. So NO CHANGE is required.

BUT as I mentioned in my previous messages I have a huge issue, because it is only displaying one post. I have 100 posts and all their categories ID are in the right place. there is an issue on your hand.

you can check out yourself www.boundlessroads.com no posts are displaying…

I kindly ask you to help me resolving this.
thanks

#20

Hi Isabella,

Please go to X > Theme Options > Ethos > Blog Options. Kindly disable “Filterable Index” feature first. We need to check if all the 100 posts will display by default.

Please let us know how it goes.

#21

Hello RueNel
yes now it works. But does it mean I cannot use the filter? I have tried again but it doesnt work. that would be bad.

The other thing is, in the demo, the blog list has some variation in the lay out which was kind of nice because was interrupting the boredom of the same lay out of posts. Do you think it’s possible to have it in place as well ?

here a screen shot. As you can see, the post in the middle has a different layout. It would be great if I could replicate. I thought it was by default.

Thanks for your help
cheers :slight_smile:

#22

Hi Isabella,

Yes, you can’t use the filter feature if you disable that, and I checked, they are in the correct order by just comparing the post date. May I know what order you’re trying to achieve?

About that layout, it’s a special feature of ethos, you can edit a post and change its layout manually. Example,

Thanks!

#23

oh ok thanks.

[/quote]Exactly that.
I have said that about three times LOL
I think you guys work too much :joy:

#24

I have disabled it because it’s not working, as I was mentioning… Could you please help me with that?

#25

Hi Isabella,

Ah, I thought you’re referring to a different order other than the default in comparison with filter groupings.

To explain the filterable feature further, I’ll provide the screenshots. These are the categories ID that you have to choose

Let’s say 465, I checked your category in Admin > Posts > Categories and it only has 1 post.

It can only display the number of posts assigned to that category. Try selecting other filters and more than one is displayed.

Please note that adding all categories doesn’t mean it displays all 100 posts, it will only display certain amount of posts per category (like grouping them per category), then there will be See All button below it there are more posts to see. It just happens in one group, you have only assigned 1 post.

Thanks!

#26

I am not sure I understand.
If I include all the categories ID, it doesn’t work, it only shows 1 post.
If I only leave 3 or 4 ID, it shows only 3 or 4 post.

Look for example in the screen shot. I had more category shown and only one post is coming up.

What I wanted is to have all the main categories included. but all the posts displaied in the same cronological order.

Is that possible?

Thanks a lot
regards
Isabella

#27

Hello Isabela,

If you enable back Filterable Index again using this set of category IDs, 465, 299, 493, 214, 317, 202, 257, 53, 109, 314, you will only get one post because the filterable index only displays the post items related to the first category on the list. In your case, it is Africa since the categories will be displayed in alphabetical order. As soon as you select “All” from the filter, you will see all the posts.

Please enable it back and test again and see if this will work for you. Regretfully you may not display all post items as soon as you load the page at first.

#28

OH! that’s too bad.

So I won’t use it. I want all the blog posts to display, otherwise it would look weird with the empty home page.

never mind.
thanks for the explanation though.

best,
I.
