First of all thanks for an awesome and very well-built theme. So far it’s been a breeze to work with and customize to my needs.
There is one issue I’d like to resolve. I want to implement clickable wallpaper ads including the header add backgrdound. Last part is easilly doable with just modifying the alpha-value (header ad background) and then overlay a html5 / flash ad, but I need the top menus (main menu & top bar) to be full-width and not fixed width and have the top of the background image / ad start from the top add (td-header-sp-recs) and NOT from the top of the page.
Is there an easy solution for this?
I plan on using OpenX / Revive to serve all ads.
I’ve included an example that more or less illustrates what I’m trying to do:
Hello Phonetic,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an options to set the Ads as you wish. It is not a simple task and required custom work. If you want to display more levels in our theme and you are not aware the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to implement this for you because we cannot provide custom services at the moment, sorry!
I can give you some hints in order to achieve as you wish but please notice that require custom modifications…after you have selected the background-click ad from your Theme panel -> http://screencast.com/t/fV8KzyjZRjd and background-image like this -> http://screencast.com/t/GtWjiHoDhkxb you can use the CSS code below to achieve like this -> http://screencast.com/t/VAOMron8Ygv
The code is ->
.td-header-menu-wrap-full {
margin-bottom:150px;
}
.backstretch {
margin-top: 170px;
}
Please notice that it is only an example. If is not what you mean, please hire someone to help you.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Thanks for a swift reply Catalin.
Great pointers and I’m pretty sure we can get done pretty quickly. Tricky part will probably be having a dynamic wallpaper fetched from the ad server instead of a media file from within the theme settings.
Hi Catalin.
I’ve just tested the CSS and the top menus are not full width. They are still fixed width after applying the background image. Any way to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
Hello Phonetic,
Please notice that our theme does not use full width and you cannot change this to be full width very easy because you can break the layout. Our theme has not been designed to be on full width…and this thing is not a simple task because all the layout will be messed.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Catalin.
I not looking to make the theme full width (content), but just make the header background(s) be full width (as they do when background ads are disabled) and not but be “cut” by content-width. Shouldn’t that be possible with some quick CSS?
Hello Phonetic,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option. If you want to have the full width for your header style (5,6) you must not use background image because in this case the layout of the theme will be boxed. Please notice that is not a simple task to achieve a full width for header background and require additional customization -> custom work. Unfortunately, we cannot provide custom services at the moment and if you are not aware the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you.
Thank you for the message!
Hi Catalin.
Thanks for clearing that up. I’ll get our developers to come up with a solution.
I would like to add a feature request though. I’m pretty sure that many users would love full width tops / menus with background image-functionality without “boxing” the top navigation etc.. I’ve peaked at your td-full-layout vs td-boxed-layout classes and it should possible with a pretty quick addition / change.
Thanks.
Hello Phonetic,
I have added this to our list of requests and in a future update, it is possible but we cannot say for sure if it will get done in the next update because it is not a simple task and also, we have a big list of fixes, improvements and suggestions to implement. It’s hard to filter them and select which one gets implemented now and which one gets postponed. The developers will decide if it gets done or not, though.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Catalin.
Thanks a lot 🙂
