I’m sorry if this is long winded but if anyone can provide any feedback whatsoever it would be much appreciated!
I’m basically in the process of trying to skin phpBB by extracting the contents of the Newspaper theme header and footer using a similar technique to this (very old) video: https://css-tricks.com/video-screencasts/48-skinning-phpbb/
What I have done so far is create a new php file that ‘includes’ wp-blog-content.php and the header.php file. I then run a cron job using curl to scrape the file and output to a HTML file. See: http://forums.panorev.com/styles/prosilver/template/header-wrapper.html
The problem I’m having is with the CSS mega menu not displaying correctly. I believe all the code that’s required is loaded in, but I’m not having any luck, possibly jQuery issue. I’ve extracted parts of the HTML and put it into the phpBB overall_header.html file and the CSS menu isn’t working. I’ve further complicated it by hosting the main site http://panorev.com using WPengine, and having the forums on a separate hosting provider on a subdomain http://forums.panorev.com … I am trying to prove this will work before deciding if I will go the phpBB route since it is a robust forum solution.
Does anyone have any experience with such a task? Can anyone definitively say that my problem is likely to be that I’m using two different hosts to try and load the menu as the JS and CSS is being called across domains? Anything else to add?
Failing this, I’m probably going to look at another forum solution, as I really wanted something that people are used to that I can run with lots of features. I have read over the years that bbPress isn’t really up to scratch… has anyone tried Simple:Press?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Hello Popped,
1. You can eliminate the “gap” by making the site boxed. Just add a background image or color (even white) and the site will be made boxed: http://screencast.com/t/ND1EPkg5kn.
to remove the shadow image add this custom css to the theme panel -> custom css:
.td-header-gradient:before {display:none;}
2. You can add an image to the header using this code (i assume you are using header style 9):
.td-header-style-9 .td-header-sp-logo {
background: white url('http://imgscenter.com/images/2014/09/13/Beauty-of-nature-random-4884759-1280-800.jpg') no-repeat;
background-size:cover;
}
the result: http://screencast.com/t/GmDrXVsxijx
3. The shrinking menu animation from the website you mention is custom built and requires quite a bit of coding. Unfortunately we cannot offer any custom work. You can hire a freelancer to do it for you from sites like http://studio.envato.com
Thank you.
Hi kevingilmour,
I’m not sure how it looks on your side,
You could try to add this code in the theme panel-> custom css:
.woocommerce ul.products li.product h3 {
text-align: center;
}
.woocommerce ul.products li.product .price {
text-align: center;
}
.woocommerce ul.products li.product .button {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
display: table;
}
.woocommerce .products .star-rating {
margin: 0.5em auto 0 auto;
}
Let us know how it works out.
Thanks!
Hi,
You can do this only manually in style.css as the theme doesn’t have an option to set a general font.
Regarding the custom font try to create a folder like Fonts in public_html on your server, make sure you have permissions for that folder, then verify in page source if the font is loaded. Then you can add thr font name and paste the url where you uploaded the font and specify a name – http://screencast.com/t/bosHz93pa1li – http://screencast.com/t/rDbnlGghhXYt
Thanks!
Hello,
We have no experience in CSS or anything. We’re working on a news website and we thought of some things. Just want to ask some questions regarding header:
1. How are we supposed to remove the gap outside the header and navigation bar (see: http://i.imgur.com/smjDBu1.png)? If possible, we would like to remove the shadow too; we like it flat and borderless.
2. Can we add an image on the background of the header? Something similar to this: http://sports.abs-cbn.com/
3. Finally, can we add an animation when the navbar shrinks similar to the website previously mentioned? We feel like the transition is just too abrupt.
We’re sorry if we’re asking these questions as if we don’t know a thing or two about web design. We’re writers and whatever we’ve done with the website so far, we’re just doing it based on research.
Thank you.
Popped!
Hi, I had a look at the new version of Newsmag v2.2, I read that there are some new features for less_files. I installed the new version is I tried to change a less_files to see if it really worked, but I realized that nothing happens, then I realized that less_files are still disabled right?
I would like to know when less_files will actually work, because my site has many changes in style css, then you should redo any changes in less_files, I worked in theme with less_files so this for me is not a problem, just let me know when I should do this “big job” to better plan everything with my team
Sorry for my bad English. Greetings and good work
Hello Bogdan!
Thanks. I need full content – http://screencast.com/t/TXZeKqUbxqyY. Social links are not so important so they can be hidden, but important are other links in top menu.
I added this CSS:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td-header-top-menu-full
.td-header-sp-top-menu {
display: block !important;
}
.td-header-topmenu-full {
display: block !important;
}
}
But no effect. Did I miss something? Thanks
Best regards.

Hi,
I am trying to adjust the display of products on the main shop page so that the product title, price and add to cart button are centred under the image rather than to the left.
I would also like to add a lightweight drop shadow under the product item on the main shop page to.
Is there custom css I can use to do this?
Thank You
Kevin
ok, so maybe how to manually change default font set?
could we edit style.css straight up and where?
we just need to change your default font set though
Hi,
Maybe you have to use !important to apply the custom css, for example – http://screencast.com/t/Ub8ryC4Y also make sure that you targeted right. You can provide a link so I can take a look if what I suggested above doesn’t work.
Thanks!
Hello robert4web,
The theme was designed in such a way that the top menu is hidden on the mobile version. There is a workaround however, using a custom CSS code, but you need to tell us what you want your mobile top-menu to contain, because the space is limited on mobile phones and adding all of the content (login widget, menu and social icons) will take up a big portion of the screen.
Examples:
full content: http://screencast.com/t/TXZeKqUbxqyY
login widget with social icons: http://screencast.com/t/jxljko5scU8T
just login widget: http://screencast.com/t/ISsO24sPjd1v
Thank you.
Hi
You can increase the font size for the sub-categories items using custom css in theme panel > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/ZMmTJII8
.td_mega_menu_sub_cats a{
font-size: 15px;
}
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hi
To hide the author name and date for a specific category page try adding this code in td_module.php file like here: http://screencast.com/t/a0NTeGRu just replace the category name:
and !in_category('vogue')
To hide those info from posts that belongs to a specific category you need to add a condition in the file corresponding with the post template used: http://screencast.com/t/5JHbRQVHtv0 – http://screencast.com/t/pDeoshW9OH The same condition must be added if you want to hide the author box: http://screencast.com/t/BHNB4FJ7lVVx
<?php
if (!in_category('vogue')) {
echo $td_mod_single->get_author();
}?>
Also you will need this custom css in theme panel custom css:
.td-post-views {
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 0!important;
}
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!

Hello bobbymc,

@media (max-width: 767px){
.td_text_columns_two_cols {
-webkit-column-count: 1;}}
Add this code in the theme panel like so: http://screencast.com/t/lCMTdGFt
Thank you.

I love the look of the columns for post text on desktop version.
Is there custom CSS I can add for mobile so the columns don’t show?
Thanks!
Hello Schuchi,
If you use google adsense you should not have this problem, but for a ‘custom ad’ try adding this CSS in your theme panel as it needs a bit of adjusting:
.td-header-style-7 .td-a-rec-id-header > div {
display: table;
}
http://screencast.com/t/FnDaxgFwmfPv
Thank you.
Hi,
I have checked your post again and the counter doesn’t work proper. These errors may cause issues, they are still there. Did you tested without any plugins active except of Visual Composer? Usually these errors are caused by plugins, also please disable any js/css minifications. Try to refresh the page when your are not logged in(in a incognito page) and see if the counter increments.
If the issue persist please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-access so we can take a look, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are and what your issue is.
Thanks!
Hi,
I guess it is more easily is to add the background image using custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/QpFHa5yt
.error404 .td-main-content-wrap {
background-image: url('link to your image');
}
Thanks!
Hi,
I’m using the smartlist feature (which is brilliant by the way) but it seems to be cutting off my Titles. Is there a way I can enable overflow to be visible and just wrap below like the normal titles for posts? I tried adding the “overflow: visible;” tag to the css but that didn’t seem to do the trick. Maybe I’m putting it in the wrong place?
Please let me know how I can fix this.
Thanks so much,
Sam
Hi,
You will have to combine that css with this one – http://screencast.com/t/IBIcV9Xnjlw
.td-grid-style-1.td-hover-1 .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before {
opacity: 0;
}
.td-grid-style-1.td-hover-1 .td-big-grid-post:hover .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before {
opacity: 1 !important;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
The css is applied in cascade so the font set in the panel will overwrite the default font. The only way to stop the default fonts to load first is to search and replace them in style sheet file – http://screencast.com/t/igScbqdmDfH
Thanks!
Hi,
Newspaper 6 is practically a new theme, the whole code was rewritten, reviewed and refactored. Lots of new features have been added, new grid system, new design, options and so on. I suppose you would want to use new version’s features/blocks/modules. We have added within theme’s panel an update script which when run will import the previous version settings, but unfortunately you will have to adjust the custom css to work in latest version, sorry!
We will try to provide security updates for a while, but I suggest to update to the latest version and always use the latest version.
Thanks!
Hello pandian,
As i see it, you have the same thing set up as the other site, just that the homepage is different (not in the menu). When you access the ‘interesting on the internet’ category, the “underline” will be active. If you place a homepage link(button) in the menu, it will have an active border as well just as the other site.
If you truly want it like you said, for the category (‘ioi’) to be highlighted in the homepage you can add this custom css in the theme panel->custom css field .
I’ve also positioned your logo to your specifications. http://screencast.com/t/fR4tKRkg
.td-header-style-1 .td-header-sp-logo {
margin-left: -10px;
}
.home .menu-item-first a:after{
background-color:#4db2ec!important;
}
Thank you
