I was looking to get an answer to the same question and the main reasons I have to use the admin bar are:

1. Because of buddypress options that get added to the admin bar. How do we add buddypress fields to the tagdiv login modal?

2. Tagdiv login modal can only launch from the header menu (top bar of tagdiv) – which is not responsive (is not sticky for mobile screens). How can we get the tagdiv login modal to launch from other places in the UI?

Even when I use the buddypress admin bar – it gets hidden behind the tagdiv main menu. Is there a way to make sure that tagdiv menu doesn’t hide the buddypress flyout?

Just to add – this would mean adding a “log in” link that starts showing “Welcome John Doe” text with profile photo after login is complete.

This is an issue for me as well. Anyone?

Was there a specific reason to remove post views from modules? Were they considered a performance hit?

Is there a code/CSS change we can make to remove the sidebar until the fix comes in?

Thanks!

Hello,

Any update on this? Seems to be still happening, even with Newspaper 6?

Hi,

Thank you for your help! Another problem I am facing with this technique is that the row background image does not seem to be responsive. It appears fine on a desktop browser but in a phone screen, the image does not get smaller. What kind of media queries can I use to make it responsive? I tried the Column Settings (“Responsive Options”) but that did not seem to work either.

Also, I want the row background image to have a gradient just like some of the other slide based modules in the theme. I tried assigning the class “td-image-gradient” to the image but the gradient is not applied uniformly as shown in the screenshot.

I’d like to move the text block to the bottom of the row image. I tried a few CSS changes but couldn’t get that to work either.

Appreciate the help.

Hi Alin,

Thank you for the suggestion. I followed the steps from the topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-background-color-of-the-big-slide-under-nav/#post-54593 and was able to get the image to show up with full width. I have a follow up question. I added a “call to action” element and then set the row background image as you suggested. However, the background image height is cut off from the bottom (http://snag.gy/a6Rvs.jpg):

I’d like the full height of the row background image to show. Any suggestions?

Also I want some spacing between the row background image and Module 4 below.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks!

Suggestions anyone?

Hello there,

So I upgraded to Newspaper version 6. However, when I create a new page, I don’t see the “Homepage – bg – no article list” template anymore. How do I get the full width image on the homepage with Newspaper 6? Is there an easier way out?

thanks,
abhi

Hello @Lucian,

I set the text position as distance from top (per your comment #24392):

.td-big-slide-background .entry-title {
font-size: 100px;
line-height: 40px;
color: white;
text-align: center;
position: relative;
top: 180px;
}

But when I do this, I lose responsive design – when I view the page on iOS (iPhone 5), the text is not visible. So I tried using % in the top property of CSS:

top: 80%;

but this doesn’t work. Any suggestions on how to keep the design responsive and still be able to position text correctly?

Thanks,
Abhi

Hi Lucian (@support002),

As you suggested I was able to add text to the big background image (using the php changes and css changes at http://screencast.com/t/YUHHiaw5 and http://screencast.com/t/AocalfK6h). Can you also suggest CSS required to position the text in the center of the image? text-align: center only centers it horizontally but the text still appears on top of the image. I tried using “bottom: 0; position: absolute” on the div with the text but that didn’t work.

Thanks for your help,
Abhi

@Lucian @Steven, the other way I found to remove the big slide slider from the homepage was to set the number of slides in the page editor to -1. With this, only the background image shows. Not sure if this creates any other problems (so far I haven’t encountered any).

@Lucian, thanks for the tip on adding text to the background image. I’ll try it out.

Hello there,

What would be an easy way to put text on the full width image on the homepage (e.g. image of the horse on the homepage at http://www.biznesinteres.ru?

Thank you,
Abhi
