Hi, I’d like to show images with a Mailchimp form URL on my sidebars. I can use sidebar ad to do that but I would have to use all 5 custom ads (I want to show many different images on my various sidebars, same as what I currently have here: http://devenirbilingue.com/). Can we add more than 5 custom ads or is there a widget I can use to show an image from the library with a link (the image box maybe? it looks weird).
Thank you.

Resolved ! I think I can use the image widget and insert the link within the media.

However, I can’t center the image using the widget Image: https://devenirbilinguetest.blog/apprendre/anglais/garde-enfant/nounou-anglophone-baby-speaking/
Would it be better to use the widget Image box from Newspaper? I’d like to insert 300x250px images, should I use extra class to modify the size (what should I write in extra class?).
Thank you.

Hi,

The sidebar content width is of 324px in that layout, you could use images with that size.

Or I could give you a code to center the images

.single .td-main-sidebar .widget_media_image {
text-align: center;
}

The code will apply to posts and image widgets in the sidebar. It can be entered in Theme panel->Custom CSS section.

Thanks

I prefer to change my images than using a code for all posts and image widgets. I tried with a 325 px (width) but it doesn’t appear correctly with the TagDiv image box widget. You can see it here, the last one on the sidebar before the video is the image box : https://devenirbilinguetest.blog/expatriation/scolarite-a-l-etranger/soutien-cned-cours-a-distance-efficace/
I could use the WP image widget since the image (just above the image box) appears correctly but I prefer to be able to customize the title color.
If you have any idea why the image box doesn’t work, please let me know!
Thank you very much.

Hello emmalabbe,

I have inspected your image loaded into your image box but it does not seem to be a right image, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/xQ022wNfNUK Try to load another image and check the results. -> https://www.screencast.com/t/1wkbHiED4B
I have checked this element to my website and it seems to work without any problems.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Thanks.

This is weird, of course we tried with other images but it was the same. And I just created a new Photoshop image exactly the same way as I do for other images on the website, it’s still the same (you can check it on the page).
Is it possible that the problem comes from the last theme update? I’m not sure but I think I tried this widget before the update and it was OK. Also, when I uploaded the 8.8 version, some sidebars I created before were modified (I didn’t pay attention since we were creating all sidebars of our new site).

Hello emmalabbe,

Try to regenerate your images using the Force Regenerate plugin or Thumbnails Regenerate. Clear all the caches and check the results. If the problem is still there, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your log-in information (wp-admin) so we can take a closer look at the single image section from your Sidebar. Provide the link to this topic so we can quickly identify you.

Thanks for the message!
