Block header 13 not displaying correctly

Hi guys, hope you’ve had a good Easter break.

I am trying to use Block Header 13 as a way of freshening up my site design, and can’t get it to display correctly.

Basically it looks like Block 12 (ie – no big text behind the main title). Weirdly, it displays on the sidebar headings on my iPhone correctly, but not on desktop or tablet, and not in the main body of pages – only the sidebar.

I have tried turning off all the plugins, clearing caches, etc, but has not solved the problem so far.

Site is thecarexpert.co.uk. Running Newspaper 7.8.1 and VC 5.1.1. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

stuart

Hi,

Unfortunately I cannot see any block 13 on your site so i cannot see the error now. This is how block 13 displays usually: https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-13/ you use a 3 column layout on your site so you do not have 2 free columns available. It will show up on your layout as it does on a 1 column layout, (the one on the right)
Please create a new page, a testing page and add just block 13 to it and see how it displays in different row layouts on different columns.

Thank you!

Hi Bogdan,

We did get eventually it working earlier this morning after fiddling with different page settings, but didn’t like the effect overall so we have changed it to Block 10 instead!

What I also didn’t realise is that Block 13 doesn’t work on narrower (1/3) columns or sidebars on desktops and tablets. It is confusing, because it does display correctly on mobiles.

Thanks for your help,

stuart

Hello stuartmasson,

As you can see in our demo preview, the Block 13 works as expected on desktop and tablet and I do not know why you make this bad report in this regard, sorry! Please provide an example with Block 13 so I can take a closer look at your link and also, so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.

Thanks for your understanding!

Hi Catalin. I wasn’t providing a negative report on the design – i like it. What was confusing me was that it doesn’t work on single columns on a desktop display, but it does on a mobile (in terms of the large text behind the title text). This was confusing me and we couldn’t work out why it wasn’t displaying as expected.

Our designer decided that he preferred Block 10 anyway, so we changed to that one and are very happy!
