Hello there 🙂

I have some questions for your WooPress theme.

TYPE STYLES
I’d like to change the typography within the theme. Is there an easy way to change globally the type styles.

– For instance I’d like to reverse the main styles from UPPERCASE to NONE, then apply UPPERCASE to some of the widget sidebars etc.
– I’d also like to remove globally the use of underlined links.

(If you have any advice on how to keep track and change the type styles the would be amazingly helpful as I find myself taking too much time changing text styles.)

BLOG PAGE
For whatever reason my Blog layout seems to be all over the place. I started by taking all my custom CSS out to see if it was anything that I’d added/changed but with no change.

-Some post titles are under the intro text, some in the correct place.
– The video thumbs don’t seem to stretch proper as there’s grey underneath. Also the excerpt margins are missing. Very strange.

>> Specifically I’d prefer to remove the excerpts all together and just have the thumbnail, category, post title then read more button. If I could have custom code for this, that would be fantastic 🙂

POST PAGE
In a similar way, like the ‘Big and Small Style Availables’ video post, the Category name and Post title is underneath the post copy.

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

We can’t access your site getting the error:

Please check it with your hosting provider.

Please clarify for what elements you want to change font style.
Show on screenshots for better understanding.

Best regards,

Proper log in details posted.

Re: Typography
If its a case of manually selecting each instance of text then I’ll have to find them myself as I just want to play with the sizes and wouldn’t at this stage be able to give you specifics. Sorry.

I would like a global reset of UPPERCASE to ‘none’ – then I can then apply UPPERCASE where I need it.

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

Please add this code in child style.css:
```
.blog-masonry article iframe {
    height: 100% !important;
}
```
To remove excerpts on Blog page you need edit your posts and place “more” tag above the content.
Also to have posts aligned you need add featured images for them, so they are shown in one line.

Also try to use this css code to disable uppercase style:
```
a {
  text-transform: none;
}
```
Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

Thank you Jack for your answers. I now understand the use of the ‘more’ tag 🙂

I just need 2 more things fixed in the blog area.

1.
Because I don’t want to display the page title in the banner area, i’ve turned off this to just leave the title displayed underneath. Even IF i remove all the custom CSS that I’ve added, each post page now seems to start displaying over the top of the main-navigation.

2. Also on the ‘post-format-video-video’ post, the category/title/details display UNDER the content text. Very strange. Also the corresponding box on the blog list page displays out of order.

Hello,

1. Sorry, but your query is unclear. Please show a screenshot for better understanding.

2. Do you mean video is shown first? This is because you inserted “more” tag under the video code in your single post. Move it upper, before the video code and insert featured image for the post.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

Hello Jack.

1. The whole blog area has moved up. I have disabled the page title that would appear in the breadcrumb area. Not sure why it has moved???

2. Thank you for the position guidance – still not sure how if: I wanted to showcase a video (using the Video Format with some explaination text), where I would position each element – as when I add a featured image to this type of page it places it at the top of the page. So should I never not add a featured image to posts, as it would make the layout go weird?

Sorry for my sketchy explanations – sometimes it would difficult to describe 🙂

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Please check this post now.

Please check it on Blog page now.

If you want to replace featured image with video you may try to use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/replace-featured-image-with-video/ (please note we can’t guarantee its full compatibility with the theme).

Thank you.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
