In reply to: Page title rewrite is not working correctly with Graphene 1.6

#25271

Try going to Graphene Options >> Display Options >> Miscellaneous Display Options and playing around with the settings under “Site title options”.

SEO plugins are a notorious pain in the bum sometimes because they try to rewrite code according to what the plugin author thinks is good SEO practice, and are designed to work well with the one or two themes they were tested under–but it’s just impossible to make a plugin that works perfectly with all themes. Especially one of these “all-in-one” plugins that do (or try to do) so much.

how did you achieve the three boxes at the bottom of your page?

Those are footer widgets. Bet you didn’t know Graphene had those, did you? 😉

Most people don’t, apparently, because they are sadly underused. I use them on my book blog here: http://bookblog.kjodle.net/

Try them! They are just awesome!

In reply to: How to change space used by Search Box in Navigation Bar

Try just

#top_search {

width: 80px;

}

The search box is already floated to the right, so if you decrease the width, it should move over automatically. But you weren’t moving the search box container that holds the input box, just the input box itself. (The search box container — <div id="top_search"> — also contains the little magnifying glass icon.)

@kelvanator

I split this into another thread because this is really a different issue. Please feel free to start a new thread whenever it’s appropriate.

We actually discussed this a while ago in this forum, and found out it’s related to the All in One SEO pack plugin. You can read that thread here:

https://forum.graphene-theme.com/bug-report/html-code-shows-when-cursor-hovers-over-menu-bar

You are using that plugin, but you are using a number of others as well. I would try disabling the All in One SEO pack plugin temporarily to see if that really is the issue. If it is, you can try one of the solutions mentioned in the thread above (including some of the threads it links to).

Let us know what progress you make on this. The bold issue is a new one (you’ll notice the code that shows when you hover over them), so this may not be a complete solution, as it may involve a plugin conflict, and those solutions might not cover everything.

Cheers,

Ken

In reply to: disable color options panel

#25290

There’s no need to disable it, just don’t use it. If you don’t use it, it won’t add any additional css to your pages. If you’ve already entered any values there, just click “clear” next to each text box to make them go away.

I want to make heavy changes to the theme using a child theme

Yes! This is the way to do it!

In reply to: Top Bar Widget moved since update

#25288

Now we’re cooking!

Try this in a text widget:

<div style="position:relative; top:-30px;">

<a href="http://bewellnow.ca/tom-bowens-original-therapy-manuals/" title="The Original Bowen Therapy Manuals 1 & 2 of Tom Bowen’s Work">

<img src="http://bewellnow.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/manual_banner_ad.jpg" />

</a>

</div>

For some reason, you have an extra anchor in there which is not needed.

You may need to adjust the top value.

In reply to: Slider Stopped working

#25266

@parkerwest:

when the slider stops working the CSS collapsed text will not unfold either

You are using the “Shortcodes Ultimate” plugin, which makes heavy use of javascript, and also the “Star Rating” (or whatever–they aren’t nice with their css), which makes heavy use of jQuery. It is likely that one of these, or the combination of theme, is causing these problems.

Try disabling both of them (and emptying your browser and server caches), and seeing if the problem goes away. Then try first one and then the other separately (again, emptying your browser and server caches in between) to see if things work out okay. You may find that just one of them is causing the issue. If things are okay, then activate both of them and see what happens.

And that’s why we put code between backticks, folks! (I’ve fixed this for you.) 😉

The “top bar widget area”? Do you mean you used an action hook or an action hook widget area?

how to correct the alignment

Which way do you want it to go? Left, right, center? Up, down? I can’t see how it’s misbehaving on your site, so it’s really hard to say how to correct it.
