Search Results for 'header'

Hi Lucian,

I have done that. I have also used the Insert Headers and Footers plugin to verify in Google Webmaster tools also. Is that needed with this theme? (it shows my UA code though!

So I just installed 4.5 (overwrite method). But the CSS were missing for fonts and header/other sections. The site looked messed up. Fortunately, I had backup 😉

Lucian, is it because of overwriting?

Thanks for the code Lucian, unfortunately I have different header colors set for my block – they arent one single color. How do I go about it then?

Have a look – http://www.droidgoblin.com

It worked thank you.

Hi Lucian,

Please take a look: http://screencast.com/t/xPV8ZPlrg

The main header shows up and the menu items that should’ve been on the left side are on the default side (left).

I think its related to the @media query. Please take a look.

Thanks!

I had the same problem. Here are my steps (I think these are the only two I used, so let me know if it doesn’t work).

1. I edited my single_template_3.php file and moved the <header> content, which originally looked like this:

      <header>
      ...
      </header>
    </div>
   </div>
</div> <!-- close the row from td_page_generator -->

To look like this:

    </div>
    <header>
    ...
    </header>
  </div>
</div> <!-- close the row from td_page_generator -->

Note that I also redid my subtitles using Advanced Custom Fields. The way I did it, I was able to put it under the title in the <header> section. I’m not sure whether yours will end up where you want them.

2. I styled the header using CSS:

.single_template_3 header {
  position: static;
  }

@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .single_template_3 header h1 {
    margin-top: 30px;
    }
  }

This was a few weeks ago now and I don’t quite remember how I determined those style rules, but anyhow, hope it works for you…

works fine for me —-> http://www.football-eu.com

Basically what I’ve done for my site is
(not using child themes as they add CSS redirects bad for SEO/speed)

a) search/replace all instances of fonts I don’t want to load from Google in my style.css file; using common font stacks for fallback such as 'Open Sans',Arial,sans-serif
(if you don’t know what font stacks are, see: http://cssfontstack.com/

b) set all my fonts in theme panel to ‘default’ so there is no code if/then trying to insert any custom fonts into header/footer/speedbooster

c) commented out the code in functions.php which loads google fonts on the page; and also removed the section of code which has the various links to theme fonts on google I won’t be using; no need to have if/then code asking to load fonts from google if I’m never going to do that via theme code (as per examples in my prior posts in this thread); need to both or you will get error. Same code in 4.22, 4.3 and 4.4 versions of theme.

d) I grabbed the link from google fonts website for the font I wish to use (as per my example above in this thread), then pulled the actual css from that link so I won’t be loading the links to the fonts from their CSS file (one less CSS file loaded on page); placed this at bottom of my own style.css file after the minified code, so that it lives in its own section after theme styles.

All of this was done with caching off, mod_pagespeed off, so that changes are picked up immediately. When editing my files I use either TextPad on the PC, or BBEdit on the Mac, to ensure my files have Linux/Unix line breaks since I’m using Linux web server. Some PC editors will put “Windows line breaks” in files, which are bad for Linux servers, in some cases, and can cause parsing errors. So, helps to know what you’re doing if editing core files for a web server.

PURPOSE OF ALL OF THIS:
1) speed up website
2) remove intermediate call to CSS style sheet on google, which may not have proper expiration headers/TTL, and may show “advisory” from testing GTMetrix,PageSpeed Insights, etc. – may help “rating” by removing one so-called issue caused by Google’s own system.

You do *NOT* need to do this, unless you have ALL OTHER optimizations in place. Many sites load their fonts from Google using their function call as it’s essentially loading from a CDN. However, “hacking” the theme for this purpose can help advanced users resolve those last couple of ratings issues, and also those obsessed with micro-optimizations.

WARNING
this hack must be done EVERY time you update the theme; so if not willing to do that, best to skip this whole subject and get on with creating great content which is better for SEO and SERPS than saving a couple of milliseconds on font loading.

Lucian:

The first step is clear. Changing the span class into span12 has corrected the problem with the last menu being pushed dowm.

The second step is not clear at all. I’ m not familiar with WP so I don’t know where to find the code to be replaced. It would be also great if you could include a copy of the final code so i have not to write it by hand (this is not an issue of being lazy but of not making mistakes).

I have not provided you my site url because is not live yet.

Thanks in advance.

Sort of fixed #3 with custom CSS

.header-content-rec{padding-bottom:15px; margin-bottom:10px;}
