BigGrid 3 Modification

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello, I am trying to modify the BigGrid Module to add two things:
1.A title for the block: “Titulares”
2. To have a bit of text of the beginning of the article below the title.

For the title I see in your documentation that in the “general” tab in visual composer settings there should be an option for this, but I only see the option to change BigGrid styles.

Thank you for your help,
Warm regards

Hello,

Unfortunately big grids in our theme do not have title possibilities. If you still want a title you can add a text with title element above the big grid and then assign a custom class to the row in visual composer as we will need to reduce a bit of spacing for the text with title element.http://screencast.com/t/NHzjMTjWW
After you add the title and the custom row, use this css to remove the spacing below the title:

.custom_title .td_block_text_with_title{
padding-bottom:0!important;
}

As for the text, the text with title allows you to have the text above the big grid.

Thank you!

Hello Bogdan, thank you very much for your help. I have been awfully busy, so I just have time to continue the development.

I have already done the title, thank you.

I do need to have text below the title of every image in the grid, I think I was not clear before. I need to have a news snippet for every article in the grid, below their title. Is there a way to do this?

Hello,

Unfortunately the grids were not created with this in mind. They do not use excerpts or a custom text. It will simply grab the post title and featured image. There is no setting for any custom text or excerpt in the big grids. This can only be done by altering the theme code and you will require coding skills for that.

Thank you!
