Many issues with new v6 update.

I’ve just updated the site and it’s been a real pain to tidy it back up. I’ve got things working again but I’m discovering so many things which I preferred in the previous version.

* On the home page I use Big Grid 2 for the featured posts – how do I stop it from zooming in on the images? I can’t seem to find the option.

* Is there an easy way to change the font for all of the headers and the body font? Do I really have to go through the crazy amount of options to change them all? Can I change the default fonts somewhere?

* How to remove post meta on the first post in the Big Grid 2?

* How to show page views on the homepage using the

* How can I make the meta on the home page go back to how it was in the previous version (greyed out, clustered together). The new comment meta icon is too bold & distracting and I don’t want to show the author.

* Where can I find the option to remove ‘More From Author’ at the bottom of posts?

* Does the logo have to be exact width? My logo now looks like it’s been pushed to the right.

* Why aren’t section/widget headers the same colour as my theme accent colour?

Some of those questions can be answered by looking at the Theme Panel:

Hi,

1. Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css it will be applied on all big grids:

.td-hover-1 .td-big-grid-post:hover .td-module-thumb .entry-thumb {
transform: none;
-webkit-transform: none;
-moz-transform: none;
}

If you want this only for home please add the .home class.

2. Unfortunately there is no general option and you have to set it manually each one.

3. You can try this custom css: http://screencast.com/t/wJUvDaaPaAJB

.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-post-0 .td-meta-info-container {
display: none;
}

4. The theme doesn’t have an option to show post views on modules anymore. You will have to copy the vies function from td_module_single_base.php to td_module.phphttp://screencast.com/t/izGddMRU and call the views on each module: http://screencast.com/t/YFATXWXCZt you may need additional css customizations. For example – http://screencast.com/t/sbnmcCbKpB0l

<?php echo $this->get_views();?>

5. Unfortunately you need to inspect and change the background and color for each one – http://screencast.com/t/6Q0FKEhJE

.td-module-comments a{
background-color: #cbcbcb !important;
}
.td-module-meta-info .td-post-views{
color: #cbcbcb;
}
.td-module-comments a:after {
display: none;
}

6. Theme doesn’t have an option to disable more from author, but you can hide it using custom css – http://screencast.com/t/OPfLLMowFK3M

.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right {
display: none;
}

7. Provide a link so we can take a look
8. The widget/block title background can be added from block settings and that color will be when your hover on article title from that block – http://screencast.com/t/rX1wEZVy

Thanks!

Was there a specific reason to remove post views from modules? Were they considered a performance hit?

Hi,

This is how the developers designed the modules without post views, they were not removed for a better performance.

Thanks!
