First of all thank you for the theme and the hard work you guys put in to support it, I’ve been able to get answers to several difficulties i was facing! Keep up the great work!
I still have a couple questions, that (hopefully) can be done relatively easily
1: Is there any way to alter the “strength” of the color fade when hovering over articles in Big Grids (1,3,4) ? (The way the custom grid hover works with the fade in option is almost ideal)
2: Is there any way to alter the gap between the posts in the big grids? (1,3,4 respectively) (http://www.politico.com/agenda/ should be a good reference point for this)
3: is there any way to change the hover color of the article title in the big grids? (once again 1,3 and 4)
4: In the custom grid builder, is there a way to add an “overlay” over the pictures (like big grid automatically adds) to make the titles more readable, or should these just be added manually before uploading?
5: In the custom grid builder, if i add post excrept, it adds the full text of the article (well, at least the first paragraph that fits in that space…) is there any way to make a custom field that only display a specific, shorter text? Similarly, is there a way to make the author appear there? (in the custom field, i couldnt find out what to add as field key name)
Sorry for the long posts and questions, and thank you in advance for your help!
Hi,
1. I guess that this is what you want to do – http://screencast.com/t/UtORBEL3Y
.td-big-grid-post:hover .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before {
opacity: 0.3;
}
2. You will need custom modifications to change the thumb size for each module used for Big Grid and increase the margin between them – http://screencast.com/t/XeQkMx7dbhW I suggest to hire a freelancer to customize Big Grid for you, as we cannot provide custom work at this time, sorry!
3. If you want to add a hove color for articles title in Big Grid you can try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/ehfidfhfaCqE Just change the big grid number and add your color.
.td_block_big_grid_1 .td-big-grid-post:hover .entry-title a {
color: red;
}
4. Not sure what you mean, please provide more details.
5. The excerpt length for every module can be controlled from Theme Panel > Excerpt – http://screencast.com/t/ur5noHK5vGx
If you want you can also use the excerpt section from post settings, but the settings from panel will not control this, all text that you paste will be displayed – http://screencast.com/t/rardM7tu0
Thanks!
Thank you for the answers, I actually managed to solve most of the problems, but there is one remaining.
On the big grids, I would like to remove the added color gradient, and I’ve found the answer in a previous post, which works well https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/gradient-on-big-grid-3/
Unfortunately, this removed the gradient when the box is hovered over as well.
Is there a way to remove the gradient when not hovered, and keep it while the article is hovered?
Thank you in advance
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!
It worked perfectly! Thank for the code and support!
One more small thing: I’m trying to implement infinite scrolling on posts. I’ve tried several plugins, and also tried the Infinite Scrolling feature in Jetpack, with adding theme support in functions.php with the code
add_theme_support( ‘infinite-scroll’, array(
‘container’ => ‘content’,
‘footer’ => ‘page’,
) );
Jetpack seems to recognize this, but unfortunately it wont load the posts.
Here is the site if it helps any: http://lumens.hu/
and a random post: http://lumens.hu/index.php/2015/09/10/this-is-not-a-dummy-dummy/
Thank you for your continued support and efforts to make this theme the best you could!
Hi,
You will need custom modifications to implement this as the theme doesn’t have such of feature. I suggest to hire someone to help you with this as it is not an easy task and we cannot provide custom work at this time, sorry!
Thanks!
