Hi,
I’m using categories to show subcategory thumbnails when you click a category. I would like to use for subcategories, style “Title with backround” https://prnt.sc/1x8r5xz
but the text is not centered, and leaks when there is a bit longer text, like this, picture from mobile view:
https://prnt.sc/1x8rtuc

I also got a note from customer that why amount of products is in larger text than category name – this is the case when sub category has a long name. Maybe the product amount text could be reduced to maximum same as category text, so that it does not look a bit funny, because that is just additional info, and main info is the name of the category.

I also noticed that in mobile view if category is empty, there is an empty space shown in mobile, could that be trimmed please?

Hello,

Use the next custom CSS code:
```
.category-grid .categories-mask .count {
    font-size: 11px;
}
.category-grid .categories-mask h4 {
    font-size: 14px;
}
.category-grid.style-with-bg .categories-mask {
    padding: 14px 5px;
}
```

Hello, this seems not to work like expected totally. Especially mobile view looks odd (there are empty spots and text is not centered or font smaller to fit)
Here some examples of mobile view of page (see private)

Please contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

It looks that your test site is down. Did you move that anywhere?

Hello,

Add the below code to Theme Options > Custom CSS
```
@media only screen and (max-width:992px){    .product-category.columns-5:nth-child(5n+1) {        clear: unset;    }}

@media only screen and (max-width:480px){    .category-grid.style-with-bg .categories-mask {        zoom: 0.8;    }}
```

Hi, Sorry, this did not help the mobile view.
There are still empty spots (where there should be a category) and we noticed that
– the white box is not in center, it is a bit on the left for left column items and on the right for right side items.
– the text is not centered, and also the amount of products is not centered either.

The empty slots /spots is the most difficult thing – it is the same when I use text below the picture (picture from production: http://www.villeriina.net/kaikki-kategoriat/ )
– is there a solution for this?

Hi, sorry I missed the font changes. I did those, and made the font even smaller. Now
– the box still is not in center (would be easier not to notice if the white box would be until edges.. on the left it is a bit to the left and on the right it is a bit on the right..
– there are still a lot of empty slots – why are they showing?

br,
Tuija

You can observe the same situation (empty categories) also here on mobile.
I noticed that for some reason, every 5th or 10th category is not shown on it’s place, and it’s thumbnail is a little bit more on the left than others. This repeats with next 10.

Please contact administrator
for this information.
