Hello team,
I see that my post titles are changing color depending on their display :
Color 1 when within a post
Color 2 when full post in a category or when 1st article full and then grid in category
Color 3 when in grid…

I guess they change as H2, H3 depending on the display and are just listed as H1 when within the particular post?
But it makes it less homogenous in terms of display/design…

How to have always the same color for the titles no matter wether they are displayed as full, exerpt, grid…
Any solution without breaking down the SEO process and hierarchy importance?

Thanks a lot,
Priss

ok, Let’s take this image for example: https://i1.wp.com/truenorthessaycoaching.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/stephan-valentin-340554-e1508442299976.jpg?zoom=2&fit=400%2C533&w=848

It’s on the third post.

Your default settings would output an image that is 848px wide and whatever the height is that matches the image ratio. Thus keeping the image from being cropped. Since your above image is smaller then 848px the image is stretched which looks bad. Lets say you want the width to be 848 since that will match the text but you want to hard crop the height meaning you don’t want the height getting any larger then 400 even if that means cutting off part of the image. You can go to theme options > blog options > Hard Crop excerpt images to the same height. and turn that on.

But note your image can’t be cropped to a max height of 400px if it’s not at least the crop size. So in our example with your image, it’s too small so the theme can’t grow it to crop it. Then you have the browser stretching it.

Now you can change this size within your post settings. For example, in your post you can set the max-width to 400 and that would drop the size down to have a max width of 400. (Just make sure you have set the post format to “image”.)

Another option you should consider is setting the image to show as a “portrait” which would place it in a box beside the text instead of above.

With all that said. Can you tell me how you would like that third post to look? Since it looks the most out of place and once I understand what you are going for and you understand some of the options we can work out a solution from there.

Try adding this to your custom css:

.home .blog_item .postcontent p {
    display: none;
}
.home .kad-blog-grid .blog_item {
    max-height: 350px;
}
.single-post .blog_carousel .postcontent .entry-content p {
    display: none;
}

Hope it helps!

Hi Ben

Thanks so much for your help. This has worked, but I find the results a little odd when viewed on my tablet and laptop, as it has added a chunk of white space between the blog summary title and excerpt, in both types of carousels (home page blog summary, bottom of individual posts). So I am changing my approach to using page builder on the homepage. theinspirationcloud.com

1. I have used image menu widgets, but want them to align exactly with the blog grid columns below. What settings do I need to enable this? I have left 25px guttering between the cells, but the row, set to full width, does not extend fully to the right. Do I need to add an image width element to get the alignment exact?

2. Is there a way to mimic the lovely gradual animation effect that the image menu delivered when I was using it from the homepage layout manager? One image sliding up slowly, one after the other? If I don’t fiddle with the animations effects in page builder, they all slide up at the same time.

3. Can I shorten the excerpt length slightly on the blog grid shortcodes I have used?

Thank you so much for your help!

Hi Angelo,
You can’t use a page template on the homepage as it will get overridden by the homepage template. You either need to set your home page as the latest post page (settings > reading) or else add your posts with a shortcode like this: [blog_posts type="grid" orderby="date" items="4"]
Hope that’s helpful!

Hello Denzon,

There is no way to add an excerpt to the widget. I suggest that you use shortcode to add the posts to your page, like this:
[blog_grid orderby=date items=4 word_count=30]

Try adding that to a text widget, and let me know if it works for you.

More options for shortcodes can be found here:
http://docs.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/shortcodes/

Let me know if this is helpful.

This CSS will remove the excerpt from all of your blog grid shortcodes on your site:

.shortcode_blog_grid_content .postcontent .entry-content {
    display: none;
}

Place that CSS in Theme Options> Advanced Settings and let me know if it works for you.

I’m not seeing the excerpt appear on the carousel. Are you wanting to hide the titles?

Hi there.

Is there anyway to remove excerpts on both the Blog Post Carousel shortcode as well as the Blog Grid shortcode?

It looks like ‘excerpt=false’ only applies to portfolio posts.

Thanks!

Hello there!
I just change to Ascend Premium from Virtue Premium and I´m experiment some issues with the setup of pages.
1- In any page when I try to use the blog template and after setted up as a grid or any other option, nothing appears. I mean, I can see the page (title, menu, etc) but no content. I already try to select different categories but have the same result. The page url is *Login to see link

2- In the same pages, I loose the footer and part of the regular information of the website.

3- Another issue I got is when I activate the advanced reviews in the woo extras, all the reviews my site already had disappeared.

My website is http://www.pabloelorza.com and I can post the info to login if necessary..
I appreciate any help, thanks and all my best.

Hey,
Just update the function to this:

function custom_remove_portfolio_meta() {
	$cmb = cmb2_get_metabox( 'portfolio_post_metabox' );
	if( is_object( $cmb ) ) {
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_portfolio_img_grid_columns' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_shortcode_slider' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val01_title' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val01_description' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val02_title' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val02_description' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val03_title' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val03_description' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val04_title' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val04_description' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val05_title' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_project_val05_description' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_post_video_url' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_post_video' );
		$cmb->remove_field( '_kad_portfolio_parent' );
	}
}
add_action( 'cmb2_init_before_hookup', 'custom_remove_portfolio_meta', 21);

That way if a plugin runs cmb2_init_before_hookup before the theme has hooked in the meta boxes it will check for that.

How are you currently adding your posts? Try using this shortcode: [blog_grid orderby=date items=4 columns=2 cat=photos]
Just create a category for the specific posts you’re wanting to display and replace “photos” with your category slug.

Hey,
Thanks for the comments James,

Here is my suggestion. Instead of overriding a file you can now do this right from the child themes functions.php file by adding this:

function my_custom_init() {
	remove_action( 'kadence_post_grid_excerpt_header' , 'virtue_post_grid_header_meta', 20 );
	remove_action( 'kadence_post_grid_small_excerpt_header', 'virtue_post_grid_header_meta', 20 );
	add_action( 'kadence_post_grid_small_excerpt_header', 'my_custom_meta_tooltip_subhead', 25 );
	add_action( 'kadence_post_grid_excerpt_header', 'my_custom_meta_tooltip_subhead', 25 );
	function my_custom_meta_tooltip_subhead() {
		echo '<div class="my_custom_meta_date">';
		    echo '<span class="updated kt_bold_date" itemprop="datePublished"><span class="postday">'.get_the_date('F j, Y').'</span></span>';
		echo '</div>';    
	}
}
add_action('init', 'my_custom_init');

Hello,

I can’t find a detailed enough answer on how to get rid of the calendar icon from the blog grid and replace it with the full date (i.e. October 17, 2017) at the top of each post excerpt. Our site does have an active child theme and I copied entry-meta-grid-tooltip-subhead.php to the child theme based on your recommendation to another user. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough technical expertise to know what to change to make the conversion. If it’s possible to make that change, any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time!
James

P.S. Absolutely love Virtue and the regular updates. Keep up the good work =)

Hey,
There isn’t a built-in way to enable this. But you could set up a two column grid, then use the following css to make the text beside the image:

.home .grid_item img {
    width: 50%;
    float: left;
    padding: 10px;
}

Does that work for you? If not, please post a link.

Hannah, Kevin,
thank you very much for your reply!
Unfortunately, the page is still a draft, it isn’t published yet.
To be accurate, I created a portfolio post with a beside project layout and I set “Image grid” as project options. Then I choose to display the images in four columns. In the page preview, the thumbnails are squared cut, is it possible to set their real size (or another size)? Thank you so much!
My best, L.

Hello Phil,

Try going to Theme Options> Blog Settings, and find “Display Blog Grid posts at equal height.”

Set that to ON and let me know if that fixes your issue.
