: Problems with Wordpress edition of Content Fader (Corporate Response Theme)
: wvduren October 15, 2016, 01:51:39 PM
Good morning!

I have a problem with the Wordpress version of the Image and Content Fader.

Short intro: I have bought the template for Joomla a few years ago (2012 I think), and installed our website. Afterwards I decided to re-register and buy the Wordpress theme also for future use. Because my Joomla template does not update well and is no longer supported by my internet host, I am now installing the wordpress theme.

I have two issues at the moment:

1. The "grey overlay" uses the whole picture, so my picture, the title and the text are faded. I put opacity at 60 now, but originally the whole screen was grey and you couldn't see the picture or title/text. I do not want this grey overlay. I want it to be like the template. Just clear, Title without background color, and only the text below the title in a black box like the original template. How can I realise that? What settings should I change?

2. The text in aligned top-left. In Joomla it is just in the middle. How can I fix that?

I hope you can help me. As far as I can see now the Joomla version works better than the wordpress edition, on the other hand, I am quite new to wordpress, so maybe it's just a simple setting.

Thank you for your help.

Kind regards,

Willem van Duren

As far as the overlay goes, you should be able to just turn the opacity to 0.

For the content layout, there have been some changes in the way the framework functions as well as in the plugin.  You may need to install the Vertex Upgrade Patch (http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_docman/Itemid,96/task,cat_view/gid,308/).

You could also just revert the plugin to the version that was included when you first downloaded the shaper, then make sure not to update it.  There have been some changes to the plugin structure which were necessary to allow for new features; if you are not using any of the new features, then using the old version of the plugin may be a better option for you.

Thank you for your fast reply.

I have put the opcaity to 0. Problem is that my TITLE and TEXT are also invisibile now :) (I can be a very good magician it seems :P)

Can you send me the Original content fader by PM/link? I have the template, but that's just a packed "Root-folder", so I am not sure how to filter the Original content fader from there?

I will now try to install the patch first and keep you updated.

Ok. So I have installed the Vertex 4 patch. After the Vertex 4 upgrade I deleted the Content Fader, and Reinstalled it.

Unfortunately without result.

I put the Slide Opacity to 500 now. Text and subtext are very clear, which is great. Only the grey background remains... The background color field is empty. Maybe something goes wrong there?

2nd question: How can I remove the "Open Gallery" button ?

I am looking forward to your advise.

Attached is the version of Image and Content Fader that was used for the demo and included in the shaper.  You can always try that and see if it gives you the results you are looking for.

As for the Gallery tab, it appears that you've already figured out which setting to change in order to disable it.

Good afternoon!

Yes that works :) Now I only need to change the Title color to white. Do you have an idea for that?

Thank you very much for your help! Very happy so far.

Adding the following code to the bottom of the style.css file for the theme should give the results you want:

:
.jdGallery .slideInfoZone h2 {
    color: white;
}

Also: Don't forget, if you're using the older version of the plugin, you'll need to make sure you don't update the plugin, or you'll end up having the same issue again.

Unfortunately no luck

Try this:

:
.jdGallery .slideInfoZone h2 {
    color: white !important;
}

Haha :) That works. But...

Now I lost my black stroke/background (both layers are white now, so now I need to make the back-layer black)

Looking at it with Firebug (http://getfirebug.com/), it appears that adjusting the previous code to this should do what you want:

:
.jdGallery .slideInfoZone h2 {
    color: #FFFFFF !important;
    text-shadow: 1px 1px #000000 !important;
}

Yes! That's it.

Thank you very much for your help. Another happy customer :)

Glad to help!

Was there anything else, or can I go ahead and lock this thread?
