Hi Kevin,
Thanks, worked for the lower case.
The code for the sidebar width worked too, but my problem is if I use it, my pages wthout sidebar are also on an 80/20 ratio, with 20% blank space on the right… where the side bar is for the blog an category pages.
Do you know of a way?
Thanks, you guys are amazing!

Try this CSS for the width:

@media (min-width: 992px) {
.main {
    width: 80%;
    }
#ktsidebar {
    width: 20%
    }
}

and this for making the titles lowercase:

.kad-sidebar a.recentpost_title {
    text-transform: lowercase;
}

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi, just one more question though,
Would it be possible to narrow the sidebar a bit?
Thanks a lot!

The default is fullwidth or can have a sidebar. It will have a white background because of page content always has a white background. For a custom layout, you would need to use page builder template.

Pagebuilder adds a bottom margin between widgets. It’s there by default you can’t really remove it unless you want to remove all widget bottom spacing with css.

But since you probably want space between your items around your site I would simply suggest you add your slider into a visual editor widget or you add a layout builder widget into the column and set the background for that widget while allowing you to have multiple widgets inside it.

The correct css would be this but I don’t recommend it:

.panel-grid-cell .so-panel {
    margin-bottom: 0 !important;
}

I don’t understand why you keep coming back to this. But I’ll try to explain again you’re making the site wrong by having a fullwidth area and a sidebar. That is bad development and incorrect on your part. Weather of not any browser shows it how you want doesn’t matter and really shouldn’t matter to you. You can’t do something wrong and be upset that not all browser will show it the way you want.

You can do this very simply using pagebuilder to add in your column. My suggestion of adding a widget plugin isn’t a requirement it was simply a way in which you might find it easier to accomplish what you want. But be all means do it whatever way you want.

If you want to keep this conversion station going back and forth for days that’s fine with me but if you want help with your site post a login and fix your bad layout.

Hey,

Please create a new topic for new questions. Ask your questions with more detail and provide a link. For example, I don’t understand what you are asking here: “I get cells spacing, and it does not recognize “0” ” and this isn’t specific enough for me to even being to offer any help: “The typography that I was using is now an old one”.

There has never been a fullwidth template in Pinnacle. If you don’t want to sidebar just turn off the sidebar in your page settings.

Hey,
1. You can use css like this to adjust the title:

.sidebar .widget-title {
    font-size: 24px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    color: #444;
}

2. You can add more padding for the sidebar with css like this:

@media (min-width: 992px) {
.main.kt-sidebar {
    padding-right: 100px;
}
}

3. Here is some example css for the sidebar border:

@media (min-width: 992px) {
#ktsidebar {
    border-left: 1px solid #aaa;
}
}

Hello team,
1) I understand that the widgets titles on the sidebar are h4.
Is there a way to customize them without them depending on h4, or is this the way the themes functions the best?
And, them being H4 (I don’t care, was just curious why), is there a way to make them upper-case?

2) Is there a way to set the sidebar width to give more room to the page content?

3) How could I add a vertical line along the left side of the sidebar, or a border on its four sides?

I found some CSS in the forum that I guess I could customize, but as I am new and experimenting, I am not sure I would do it right…

Thanks a lot,
Priss

Hey,
could you please send me a login to your site. as I said I can fix the split box in IE just need to see your settings.

Also I just checked that page in Edge 15 and see it working.

The issue isn’t because of the widget you can see it working fine here in the demo: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/ascend-premium-2/

Something you can consider is adding your sidebar as a shortcode so you only need to add the content in one place then you can pull it into every page you want it. see this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/widgets-on-pages/

Look at this 2 pages:

http://loja.jvalles.com/web/loja/sony-alpha-9-corpo/ (production site with sidebar)
http://jvalles.com/loja2/loja/sony-alpha-9-corpo/ (test site without sidebar)

2- If it upgrade the WordPress to the recent version, the layout is broken

Without knowing how you are upgrading I can’t verify this. I can tell you that you should always update. Based on what I can see your duplicating sites to do all this “testing” yet from what I can tell that is more likely your issue. Again without knowing how you are duplicating sites, it’s impossible for me to tell you where something is being broken.

6- Now you fix the problem in the test site (still having problems with the sidebar)

What issue with the sidebar. PLEASE be specific. Link to the place. Explain where you are having trouble.

Sorry, Ben, I think I can’t explain correctly the problem. I have this:

1- http://loja.jvalles.com/web/
2- If it upgrade the WordPress to the recent version, the layout is broken
3- I do not update any plugin because of it
4- I create a copy to test updating WP and your Theme: http://jvalles.com/loja2
5- There were some problems with the update, the layout was broken
6- Now you fix the problem in the test site (still having problems with the sidebar)

My problem now is if I update the production site (http://loja.jvalles.com/web/) will I have problems with the layout? What changes do you have done on the test site?

I am using fullwidth page builder on the very first row where I am using a call to action widget and it is not making any interference with the sidebar.
All other rows have standard layout.
So in my opinion that should not be the problem.

Regardless of your opinion on how web design and development works. I’m simply trying to help and explain that you should not add a full-width row when you are using a sidebar. You should just add your sidebar content into the page using page builder columns. Or you should add your fullwidth content above the page using the page title area.

You are welcome to ignore the advice of the developer I’m just tiring to help you make a good site.

In terms of microsoft. It’s known that it’s the worst and lest flexible browser. It won’t do what browsers like chrome will and self fix a page. It also won’t support flexbox fully.

If you send me a login I can force your split content to work even with your page layout being all wrong with the full width and sidebar. But I still recommend that you do things the way they are supposed to be done.

That’s strange.

So in my opinion that should not be the problem.
Also, Why is it working correctly on all other browsers but Microsoft??

I also don’t know how do you check the cache of my website but going into the settings of IE and clearing the cache is really not a rocket science.

On your page. You seem to be trying to use a fullwidth page builder row and a sidebar. You can’t do that. That will break things. You can’t have content that is designed to stretch the width of the screen and also have a sidebar. You need to make the page full width and then add your sidebar widgets into a page builder layout.

Thanks for your prompt response. No one told me to do it this way. After taking so long playing around with the Ascend theme on a duplicated image of my live site, I guess my goal was to not lose a lot of customer data. I think back in May, I started playing around with Ascend. So I have new customers on the live Pinnacle site that are not on the copy of the Ascend site. I could run Duplicator Pro on the dev site and just lose those customers and order information. Not a huge deal, just was hoping to find a way to get the current database with all the work I did on the dev site.

I suppose there is a way to import data using SQL, but I don’t think I want to go there! I’ve looked at few of those tables and there are tons of them involving Woocommerce.

What is “Theme Options > Export to data file” supposed to do? I was hoping that would have menu settings, widget content, etc. But I guess not.

Another option is to just continue to play around with my copied (from live) site until I get it to look like the dev site. I have a better idea what to do now, but I have added a lot of images on the dev site that are not on the live site.

Another thought came to me. Even though you work on pages they maintain the original publishing date, so when I export them I get duplicates and/or none at all. What happens if I either change the publishing date or author’s name or is it better to just change the name of the page altogether?

I still have the problem of getting at the widgets I spent time developing on the dev site. In many cases they don’t show on the home page or other page content. They are in widgets like Primary Sidebar, Shop sidebar, Header Extra Widgets area, Topbar widget area, and Home widget area. Also Footer 1, Footer 2, etc. These had content from your Shopping Demo that I changed. It would be nice to be able to copy/download them to the new site. /Bob

But when I create a new page or post, Default is displayed in the sidebar field and that’s what the page or post is created with. Shouldn’t this be getting set to Blog, my new custom sidebar?

No, it should be default since by setting the default to blog in your theme options you are making the “default” setting the blog sidebar.

There is no sidebar called “default” it is simply whatever sidebar you set in your theme options.

Where the bug is coming in is that the default isn’t changing on the front end based on your theme options. And That is something I will fix in the next update. Thanks for posting.

Let me preface this by saying that I seldom use sidebars, so perhaps I’m not understanding how this is supposed to work. I created a custom sidebar called Blog that simply displays a summary of Recent Posts. I’ve gone into Theme Options for both Page Settings and Blog Settings and set sidebar to On (this is working) and the sidebar to Blog. But when I create a new page or post, Default is displayed in the sidebar field and that’s what the page or post is created with. Shouldn’t this be getting set to Blog, my new custom sidebar? This is, of course, easy enough to override by simply selecting the correct sidebar, but I’m trying to minimize steps for my client when they eventually start creating posts. The really won’t be creating pages.

The site is HERE.

I apologize if this has been asked before and I missed it during my search.

I need the pages in my theme to default to a full width page instead of the sidebar page.

Is there anyway to change this default setting?

Thank you
