Hey,
I’m sorry that I’m not explaining this well enough. Let me try again.

The home portfolio full is only a module it’s very much the same as adding a shortcode to the home page we just put an interface for it.

If you would like to have the same exact output as your home portfolio but have an option to increase the total amount of items you can call then you just use a shortcode instead of the portfolio home in your theme options.

Thats all you have to do just move portfolio home to disabled. Add the shortcode to your home widget area or page content.

Hey,

1. Yes you have to add your own link if your using a custom excerpt. (it’s custom so thats part of giving you control).

2. There is a blog page format for posts. See here: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/blog/

You can also use a blog grid see here: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/blog-grid-three-column/

^ That is where the custom excerpt would show as is. So whatever formatting you use for custom will show in either of those formats.

There is also a separate style option which we added for the home page. That is what you see as “latest posts” in the theme options > home layout. That purely optional. Think of it as an added bonus. You don’t have to use it if you don’t like but it’s there. If you don’t like how it styles the posts then don’t use it.

Finally you also can display the full post. see here: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/blog-full/

So to be clear thats three options.. Blog standard, blog grid, blog full and then apart and more custom from those the latest posts that you see in your home layout options.

Any one of those styles can be called into a page using a shortcode.

So since you want use the read more option where you manually tell wordpress where to break in the post by using the read more tag, you need to use the blog full. That style calls for content and not excerpt.

Here is an example of how we are using the full output in conjunction with the read more tag: https://www.kadencewp.com/blog/

You can see there that all the formatting is in each post (including an image) till I’ve added the read more tag.

It sounds like that is the style you want throughout your site (even on the home page).

So you need to go into your blog page, make sure you have selected the blog page template and set the “display content as” to be full. See here: http://docs.kadencethemes.com/virtue/#blogpage

Then you need to go into the theme options > home layout. Deactivate “latest posts” and instead move “home widget area” into the enabled area.

Next go to your apperance > widgets add a text widget to the home widget area and place [kad_blog orderby=date items=4 fullpost="true"] into the text area.

Hi —

I can’t seem to get the search to appear in my primary search menu, though it is turned on. This is my website: *Login to see link Is it because I’ve split the menu (with the icon in between)? I’ve made sure to set the number of items on either side of the icon to three, and since I have two menu items, that should leave room for the search. I’ve also tried to go to Appearance –> Widgets, but I don’t have a Header Area there, just a Home Page Area, a Primary Sidebar, and three Footer areas.

Thanks!

Go into Theme Options> Topbar Settings> and enable the topbar widget area. Then go to Appearance> Widgets and select a Text widget to be placed in the topbar. Then you should be able to ad whatever text you like in the widget area of the topbar.

Hope that helps,
Kevin

Hey,
1. Yes all formatting in terms of italics, paragraphs breaks, and links are all stripped out of the excerpts. That is how wordpress works. You can create custom excepts for each post that will allow you to add some formatting but when you have wordpress create it based on the first lines of your post it will strip the text formatting.

To create a custom excerpt just click “screen options” in your post edit page and check the box for “excerpt” that will give you a new area to write your custom except.

2. Yes you can show full content and add the read more tags. Thats not the same as a excerpt and will still show the content in like a single post for the top part.
For this to be an option you would have to go to settings > reading. There you would make your front page the posts page.

This would mean you wouldn’t get your home page content of your current static home page. (you could use the home page widget area though).

3. you can use a shortcode to show a category of posts. You can use orderby="menu_order" in the shortcode to make them order in revers.

In your theme options > shop settings. Make sure you select to have a sidebar and choose which one. Then in your apperance > widgets add a product categories widget to the sidebar widget area.

Hi Jeffrey,
What kind of formatting are you wanting? The links seem to be working fine and I don’t see any issues with the formatting. You can set default settings in Theme Options > Blog Options.
For your blog page make sure you are using the Blog page template and set “Display Post Content as” to “Full” under Blog List Options.
If you want full posts on the homepage you can set your homepage as a latest post page from Settings > Reading then in Theme Options > Home Layout enable Page Content in the homepage layout manager and then scroll down to Page Content Options and set the Latest Posts Display to Full.
Another option is to use a shortcode like this: [kad_blog orderby=date items=4 fullpost=true] You could just paste that into a text widget (Appearance > Widgets) within your home widget area.
Hope one of those works for you!

My blog posts are formatted the way I want them on the individual post pages. However, the summaries that appear on my home page (which I think occurs via the Home Widget area) lose all formatting and links. The same occurs in summaries that appear on my Blog page. I don’t understand why this is happening. How can I preserve the formatting of my posts in the summaries?

Also, I’m not sure I want my Blog page to display summaries rather than full content of posts. Where would I turn full display on and off?

Thanks.

Hey,
1. You can limit how many show on the home page setting the home page as a post page.. use the settings > reading. “Blog pages show at most” – set that to three.

2. In terms of adding a title you can use the home widget area place a text widget into it with whatever you want for a title.

In my Logo Layout I chose a “left logo with a right widget”…perfect for my homepage.

On my other pages I have removed the right widget by “display: none”…perfect…that works great.

Now how do I center the logo and the tagline below it on a non-home page where I have removed the widget area per above. I tried this for my FAQ page:

/*Center Logo on FAQ page*/
.faq .kad-standard-logo {
align: center;
}

Didn’t work. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hey,
1. the custom carousel has a link option. If your not setting that link then it wouldn’t go anywhere.

I your wanting a gallery carousel that links to a lightbox I recommend that you enabled the home widget area. Then in your apperance> widgets add the virtue gallery to that widget area and select carousel in the widget settings.

If you wanting a portfolio that is different portfolio posts would link to the post itself. See here for portfolio examples: http://themes.kadencethemes.com/virtue-premium/portfolio/

Hey,
Since this is your home page and not a category page Kevin’s tip won’t change that page. The home page is set in your theme options > home layout. There the max option is 26 items.

So here is what you can do. go to the theme options > home layout and move “portfolio full” to disabled. and home widget area to enabled.

Then go to apperance > widgets. Add a text widget to the home widget area and place this shortcode inside the text widget.

[portfolio_posts columns="4" items="40" filter="true"]

Well when you place a number you can use the visual editor widget. With that you can click the “add media” button and place an image into the content area. If you choose to have it left aligned then it would float next to your text.

Hi Hannah,

I deactivated some of my plugins and they’re still showing the same, I am using the following plugins for this specific website:

-Askismet
-Black Studio TinyMCE Widget
-Contact Form 7
-Page Builder by SiteOrigin
-Slider Revolution
-WP Super Cache

I’m still having problems with the “feature d projects” area being squished on the main page (please refer to screenshot: http://snag.gy/3MXZq.jpg). Notice that the featured projects section is squished so I’m not sure how to fix that.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Dan.

You should be able to accomplish this by going into Theme Options> Main Settings> Logo Options and select the widget enabled header. Then go into Appearance> Widgets> and assign a Text Widget to that area, and you’ll be able to put the store hours within that. I’ve been running into issues getting this to work on my test site, but this technically should work. If it doesn’t, let me know.

Hey,
Looks like you have given widget areas a 250px padding.. on a screen size smaller then 500 that would force items off screen.

Here is some css that should help:

@media (max-width: 780px) {
    .home .panel-grid-cell .panel-widget-style {
    padding: 100px 10px !important;
}
}

This is part of the latest update for woocommerce. They add a disabled to the add to cart button. You can use this javascript in a footer widget area using a text widget.

<script text="javascript">
jQuery( window ).load(function () {
jQuery( ".variations_form .single_add_to_cart_button" ).removeAttr('disabled');
});
</script>

That would remove it.
