Hi,

Two questions on the portfolio:

How can I show the titles of the items on a portfolio grid page? The title only shows when I hover the items. I’d love to show them also without hovering, and possibly change colour of the title when hovering. Is this possible?

Is it possible to create more ‘external website’ fields in a portfolio post? I really like how they show up in a list, together with the value titles and descriptions.

Thanks!

hey so you can change the layout to a grid layout on the home page by changing the settings at the very bottom of the home layout in the theme settings.

you can set how the photo shows by using the post summary option in the post setting: http://docs.kadencethemes.com/virtue/#blog_posts

in the theme settings on the blog posts settings you can change the default image layout.

Hi Ben,
The simple answer to your question is yes.
I have rectified the problem by deleting all pages and posts and started fresh and as a result blog and blog grid templates are working fine now?

Cheers,
Chad

So on your blog page you had a shortcode in the page content, which was the reason for the two different sections. Just needed to remove that shortcode.

as for making the home page use the grid you can by switching out the page content with latest posts in the layout manager. This works as long as your home page is set as the latest posts page in the wordpress settings. I switched this for you.

I have achieved our desired layout for our BLOG PAGE, using the Page Template: Blog Grid.

There is, however, a default that I cannot get rid of. Above the content there is a 4-post blog grid that displays a repeat of the desired grid directly below. This is using css class=”home_blog kad-animation”, whereas the desired grid below is using id=”kad-blog-grid”.

The home_blog class is also the default style for the home page layout, however I would LOVE to have the kad-blog-grid there instead, as it displays the featured images better. Is there a way to swap these out without messing with the code. I’m not against creating a childtheme if need be.

You posted a link to a local site, that will only work for you.

So If your talking about using the testimonial grid template the title is supposed to be the name of the person giving the testimonial. You can see an example here: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/testimonials/

Because of how the testimonials are written in the theme there isn’t a way to put the title above the posts without editing code.

Pagebuilder adds a 30px margin to most of the rows, I’m adding this to the next version of the theme which will counter the margin for rows that have one of the three extended classes:

.panel-row-style-wide-feature, .panel-row-style-wide-grey, .panel-row-style-wide-parallax {
margin-bottom: -30px;
}

Other rows you can counter with this, just note you don’t need the above code if you use this:

body .panel-grid {
margin-bottom:0;
}

As for your page with no header can you post a link, I’ll need to see what you left and whats adding the space.

I’m confused. What are you trying to edit? the portfolio grid page? or a portfolio post?

Hey Ben,

1.+2. I think I will keep the original two columns for the latest blogs posts on the home page.
3. Works fine – thanks!

4. The Blog is still not working in four columns like this example: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/blog-grid-four-column/#
There is also a sidebar on the blog which I don’t want to use. I said not to use the sidebar on the blog page, but it’s still there …
I don’t know what to do … I made three blog posts to test the columns but it still uses just one column and a sidebar.

… and more ideas 😉

I like the simple and clean design of your blog ( http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/blog-grid-three-column/ )
How did you make these small icons for the date, author, category and comments on the blog page? Ah, I just played around with your example blog – seems like these icons are automatically in the two, three and four column design.

Is it possible to take the tags away from the blog page? I think it’s enough to see them in the blog posts.

If I set up a simple gallery, when those images are clicked they open a lightbox. Is there a way they can have custom links instead? For example so each image would open up a page? I realize a blog grid does this for blog posts. I’d like to make a gallery that links to pages.

Hi Ben,

I have question regarding the resize of images.

When I activated „latest blog posts“ in the home layout settings my featered blog post images are not resized but they are cropped (just the mobile view was ok). Therefore I changed the home layout settings to „page content“. The images are now resized and not cropped with this setting.

I added the virtue post grid widget to the sidebar. The thumbnails of older posts are resized (and squared). But the latest thumbnail is cropped and the image format is different (this was the blogpost done with the virtue theme.) All pictures have the same original size 800 x 800.

Right now, I don’t know what I have to do so that the latest thumbnails in the sidebar and the pictures in the latest blog post view (home layout setting) will be resized?

Ok after testing, I really don’t recommend continuing down this road, you have to remove the wp_trim_excerpt function and add your own.. starting to get unreasonable.

For your purposes here is what I would do,

on line 149 of content-fourgrid.php I would replace:

<?php global $post; $video = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_kad_post_video', true ); echo $video; ?>

with:

 <?php global $post; $video = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_kad_post_video', true ); echo do_shortcode('[youtube_advanced url="'.$video.'" controls="no" autohide="yes" showinfo="no" rel="no" modestbranding="yes" theme="light" https="yes" class="bktube"]'.$video.'[/youtube_advanced]'); ?>

Then in the video box just add the video link.

After playing with these options – some observations:

Using shortcode in the except box:
works natively without any code changes.
Places video below title – this to be expected

Using the <iframe> method in the video embed box
Is the easiest and quickest for me
Is NOT easy for clients though

Editing the template file with:

add_filter( ‘post_excerpt’, ‘do_shortcode’);
apply_filters(‘post_excerpt’, $p->post_excerpt);

Could not get this to work
I placed:

add_filter( ‘post_excerpt’, ‘do_shortcode’);
apply_filters(‘post_excerpt’, $p->post_excerpt);

on line 181 (of this file:content-fourgrid.php) replacing: <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

Seriously you be the most thorough and helpful dude on the planet… these 3 options are great

Option 3: echo do_shortcode($post->post_excerpt);
this would go here for example if we are to use this particular archive template:
virtue_premium/templates/content-fourgrid.php line 181? In addition to? or replacing?: <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

Ok, well yes the portfolio grid is not designed to have a featured slider. So the workaround is to create your featured page and in the page content add this shortcode:

[portfolio_post columns=4 height=4000]

I would like to include an external link in the blog post. It works on the individual blog page but not on the blog grid page. Is there anyway to get the link to work on the grid?

Hey Isaac,
Your site is hidden so I can’t see what you mean.

1. I think you are asking the the portfolio images can be a different aspect ratio other then square on your home page portfolio carousel. The answer is yes but you have to change the crop for all the images there isn’t a set up for images to vary. For example, your portfolio images are cropped square by default 370 by 370px you can change the height of the crop to say 470 and you have a different aspect ratio. The height can be set in the theme options > home page settings > portfolio carousel.
2. a. use the portfolio image height settings or use the post type “image list” and add an image to your portfolio slider images.
b. The bottom carousel shows thumbnail which are square.
3. In the portfolio page you can select don’t crop images to equal height in the portfolio options: http://docs.kadencethemes.com/virtue/#portfoliogridpage

It will help me a lot to see what you are trying to do so if you can turn your coming soon plugin off that would help me to understand.

Ben
