Hello,
I’m using the following shortcode in my sidebar to show recent posts:
[kad_blog orderby=date items=3 fullpost=false]
My site: *Login to see link
Is there a way to remove the post excerpt text (when displaying in the sidebar only)? So that the recent posts in the sidebar just display with the photo/headline/date/posted in/comments (but not the excerpt)?
Thanks for your help!
Hey,
1. In your theme options > main settings, look near the top for “Sidebar Side of page.” you can define that a sidebar show on the left side.
2. you can use the feature sidebar page template. that will allow you to add a slider or image or shortcode above the sidebar.
Or you can make the page fullwidth then create your top section and in the second row create it as two columns and manually add your sidebar in one or call it in through plugin.

Hello there.
Right now there’re 2 option for the page – without sidebar and with right sidebar. Is there any option to set it to the left side?
Thanks for the help!
Hey,
If you would like to add a sidebar (it’s off by default for events query) then in a child theme you can add this code:
add_filter( 'kadence_display_sidebar', 'custom_tribe_sidebar', 20 );
function custom_tribe_sidebar( $sidebar ) {
if ( tribe_is_event_query() ) {
return true;
}
return $sidebar;
}
If you want to assign the sidebar for that events query you can use this function in a child theme:
add_filter( 'kadence_sidebar_id', 'custom_sidebar_for_tribe_event_query' );
function custom_sidebar_for_tribe_event_query( $sidebar ) {
if ( tribe_is_event_query() ) {
$sidebar = 'sidebar1';
}
return $sidebar;
}

How can I reduce or center the products on the page? I have plenty of space on the right side and in the theme options I have selected “no sidebar” … thanks

Hi Michael,
From Appearance > Menus if you open the Screen Options tab on the top right of the page you can select Staff Group from the dropdown and it will show as an option to add to your menus in the left sidebar.
Hope that’s helpful!

Hi,
I am having an issue with the icon list and the colours for the table layout when on stripes.
The site I am working on has the latest virtue theme and all the Blocks plugins are updated as well
Icon List:
1. For some reason the text alignment icons are not showing i.e. where to show the icon in the line of text – top, middle or bottom?
2. If I set the icon list to be center width (so no text floats to the side of the column) then the text is center aligned and I would like it left.
Tables with striped setting.
1. The background in the backend is white but when I look at the front of the website it is a grey so the lines are not as distinguished.
2. Again for some reason the colour selection is not showing – what colour the stripes should be? I have had those appear before?
Finally, is there anyway we can use Blocks in the Widgets area?? I am finding that I have to install Page Builder to create modals in the sidebars. This then confuses the pages sometimes when a new page is created it will be created as a page builder rather than the blocks. I would rather not have page builder installed at all now that I have the hang of the blocks I am loving them!

Thanks, Mel
Hi guys,
For some reasons, the sidebar on my site has disappeared. I’ve checked the theme options, page settings, to make sure the sidebar was well set and then I’ve even checked my widget area and everything seemed alright.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Dorcas
Hi Hannah
the sidebar “space” is still there on the front page.
In Theme Options > Home Layout you had the sidebar layout selected. I changed this to full width for you.

Hey,
First, let’s check this.
Go to theme options > theme extensions. Can you make sure “testimonial posts” are enabled?
If they are not, enabled then save and reload. If they are then you should see “testimonails” as a main menu option in the sidebar admin menu of your website.
Similar to how posts or pages are a main menu in your site.
You can go to testimonials and create new, there adding a new testimonial post. For each on added those can show in your widget.
You can see a grid example here: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/testimonials/
If you are using Kadence Blocks and the WordPress Block editor you may find it easier to work with the testimonial block that comes with Kadence BLocks. Examples here: https://www.kadenceblocks.com/testimonial-block/
Let me know if that helps,
Ben
Hey, it appears your sidebar is missing common classes. That likly means you are using a widget area that is not meant for a sidebar. Can you make sure you are using a widget area that the theme creates? You can create extra widget areas in your theme options > misc settings.

Hi
Is there anyway to add some distance between widgets in a sidebar – see this page for an example of where I’d like to improve the layout

Hey Judy,
This css will affect the color and font weight:
.sidebar ul a {
color: blue;
font-weight: 700;
}
And this the colors on hover:
.sidebar ul a:hover {
background: #81d742;
color: black;
}
You can paste those into your custom css box in Theme Options > Advanced Settings.
Hope it helps!

Hi
I use the navigation menu in my sidebar widgets a lot. Is there a way to format these menus to match the font size/color etc of the main menus?
site is jccmw.org
I suggest you use wp forms.
In your forms edit the one you are working in, in the left sidebar click “settings” then click on the notifications tab. There you can set the email the form sends to.
