Posted in: Newspaper

Hi Tagdiv Team,

This theme has all that i wanted. The only thing that I want to request is to add 2 shortcodes.

1) Buttons – http://impreza.us-themes.com/elements/button/
2) Alert box / Message box / Content box.

For alerts i am looking something like this –

http://impreza.us-themes.com/elements/message-box/

I know there are shortcode plugins available to wordpress repository but i really don’t want to use them. Can you atleast allow tagdiv multi-purpose plugin to use it on posts ?. That should help us a lot.

Hello,

We already have the settings you request. Please update your theme to the latest version and install the multi-purpose plugin. You will see there already are buttons, content boxes as well as many other options available: https://www.screencast.com/t/lohdZJSpGf
This video could help you get familiar with our page builder and the new elements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0ARTSimnUY&index=4&list=PL6CsDkMaejhr2ExZCO73U11SSVKB9r_NE

Hi,

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Indeed the tagDiv composer cannot be used on posts, only to create pages. Buttons on posts can be created however, like this

There could be more added in future updates.

Thanks

Is there a way to add message box using CSS ?.

Hi,

It would be possible to style a text paragraph as an alert, like in the websites you mention. I inspected the styling used, and used it like this
First set a custom class to the paragraph in question, so the styling does not apply to all the paragraphs in the post content

Then apply the styling similar to the one used there

https://www.screencast.com/t/U3KKyvCLrpdE
Colors can be changed according to your liking. Enter that code in Theme panel->Custom CSS section, then all you would have to do is to set the custom class for the paragraphs. The design will apply.
This is the code used in the example

.alert {
margin-bottom: 1.313em;
border: 1px solid #f6dca7;
padding: 0.786em 2.25em 1em 1.15em;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: 1.5;
text-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.9);
color: #c09853;
background-color: #fcf8e3;
border-radius: 4px;
box-shadow: inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.8), 0 2px 3px rgba(0,0,0,0.065);
}

Thanks

Here is what I did – https://snag.gy/vUqzB3.jpg

And i could get 2 boxes with different colors – https://snag.gy/GSVB8W.jpg

Question – In future if you decide to add this to post options, will this custom code conflict with your code ?.

Hi,

If this will be added in the theme by default, it will surely not interfere with this solution, this is custom. It will probably be as an option to select the text and style it in the post edit screen directly.
Indeed you can make multiple styles and apply them with a different class, to produce different results.

Thanks
