Hmm, that “post settings” control doesn’t even appear on my advanced panels list…

Thanks again Calin,

1) I think you’re confirming for me that when the button says “create page” the result is a page in the Pages list, not a template in the “cloud template” list. For example, when I download the Category template 22-Nomad and click on the button, which in that case says “create template”, it ends up in the “cloud template”list and I presume you can use that in creating other pages. By going through the same process with the Contact – nature love template, the button says “create page” and the result ends up as an actual page in the Page list. If that’s the way it’s supposed to work, then I’m good. I am just trying to understand the design intent.

2) I’m good on this one — it’s my photographer mentality. I actually created a pic at 1200 X 648 pixels in an attempt to ensure the subject’s face was in the center of the image area — but then I realized that I totally negated the parallax effect by doing that. Live and learn. So I totally understand this one now. Thanks…

3) In this case, the tagDiv Composer is working. I can set and move blocks around and make changes in the General, filter and other tabs. The only part that doesn’t work is when I am on my Contact page in tagDiv Composer — I click on the form and the proper left-hand controls appear, then I click on the black EDIT CONTENT button and the pop up window appears so I can edit the form short-code. That’s the part that won’t load. The field never appears that allows me to change the form shortcode. The circle just keeps on circling… Does that make sense?

Calin, thank you for your response. I did make some progress.

1). I checked all requirements and most conformed. The only thing I had to do was update the htaccess file and then all requirements were met.
I also deactivated all plugins that I didn’t get with the theme.
In the end, it was the same behavior. When I create a template from the category-nomad template, it works properly and the button on the template page says “create template”. When I try it with the contact-nature love template, the same button says “create PAGE”. So, again, my question is: is that the way it’s designed and you can’t create a template from nature love? Or is it mis-behaving?

2) I was able to change the image using the method you described. So thank you for that one! A supplementary question: if I want to have the image fill the field, what size is best to make the image so I can control better what is being displayed?

3) I had WP-forms lite installed, but noticed that it was Contact 7 that was listed in your tested plugins, so I had changed. Should WP-forms also be listed on your list of tested plugins?
The issue is not so much that I don’t know the process to follow in this case — what happens is that when I click the EDIT CONTENT button, the edit window opens, but it doesn’t load. I only get the circle going round and round and it never loads. I’ve tried this on different browsers and its the same issue. Any suggestions for that?

Thanks,
Derek

P.S. Webjump, thanks for the support 🙂

Never mind! I found your solution to Andrey’s similar question in the Newspaper support forum. It’s fixed… thank you!

Hi Catalin, I think I may be imagining the issue… because as I compare the front page shots with the ones on the post pages, they actually look the same. Sorry for the false alarm. Please feel free to close this and I’ll ping you again if I can actually pinpoint what my concern is better.

Thanks!

Brilliant. That worked like a charm! Thanks!
