theappositeak on "adding a link to a page"

theappositeak — Fri, 24 May 2013 09:28:33 +0000

Hello,

I am new to wordpress and need some help with the last thing left to do on my blog before I can start posting!

I have created my blog in a customised Twenty Eleven theme and have basically kept it completely basic and minimal.

I have made it so only post appears at a time and then I created (with a LOT of help from justpi) a page which displays all the posts in thumbnails as tiles.

Now I want to add a link to this page at the bottom of my main page (where the posts are - one post per page) below the text of the post. So as it stands now, I add an image with every blog post and then add some text. Below this text I now have a "Older Posts" and "Newer Posts" links. Below these two links and in the middle, I would like a link to the page of thumbnails to read "View all Posts".

Can anyone help me with some CSS (if that is what I need), or with what it is I might need to make this possible?

Any help is much appreciated!

Thank you

I am using the Mixfolio theme. I built a gallery, thumbnail grid, linked to media file. Whenever I hover over a image a gray border appears. I have the css upgrade and have tried just about everything to get rid of it without effecting the current layout and look. (example: padding: 0;) that does kind of fix the problem; however, it changes to look. Any help would be wonderful.

I'm seeing a grey woodgrain image as your blog's background image now. If you don't see that, you may need to clear your browser cache:

If that's not the background image you were wanting, please let me know.

theappositeak — Wed, 22 May 2013 19:56:42 +0000

Hello,

I am new to wordpress and wondering if there is a solution to my problem.

I have made my blog so that only one post appears per page.
Now I want to add a page where all posts can be found in thumbnails with no description or title or anything like that, just the images (all my posts have images).

Is this possible to do?

Also, I dont have a menu. Is it possible to just add a button to this page I want to create of thumbnails??

Thank you
All help will be greatly appreciated

Got it. That will really help me as my blog revolves around digital art and photography. Thanks so much.

You're welcome!

Extra tip:
Many of the images you insert are wider than 900px, and they get downsized to fit. But images downsized by WP lose some color and sharpness - see this post of mine for an example:
http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/01/16/image-quality/
So, if you want best quality on the post, you should use an image editing application to downsize copies of the originals to 900px, and upload/insert those copies instead of the oversized originals.

Ah!! That worked. And yes I seem to have over looked the first para of your reply. Now the images are appearing to their regular size. Thank you. Thank you so much.

a) The images on that post behave as expected when you haven't taken care of what I originally suggested: they display at the default max-width for TL (620px).
b) You disregarded the first paragraph of my previous rely. At the moment browsers are reading two stylesheets (the original plus your modified version of it), and this can create conflicts.

So let me check that post again after you go to the CSS editor, enter 900 in the Content Width field, check the option "Don't use the theme's original CSS", click Save.

I didn't edit the width. But like you said I did increase the image size to 130%. Here's a post in which I didn't do this. http://thereddotman.com/2013/04/12/death-darksiders2-art/

First of all, read this post of mine:
http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2013/02/21/where-is-the-theme-css-and-how-do-i-edit-it/
You should either delete everything from the CSS editor and add only the specific changes you make, or at least (if you insist on keeping the entire stylesheet in the editor) check the option "Don't use the theme's original CSS."

Second, I checked the image codes in your latest two posts, and they aren't ok: the size command is missing from the class attribute, and the dimensions are wrong (width 1248px instead of 900px). Did you make these changes yourself in the Text editor? Can you give us the URL of a post in which the image wasn't inserted in the size you wanted but you didn't "increase the size to 130%"?

Nope, that doesn't seem to be working. It's having no effect when I input the pixels in the px box. However, I went in to the code and changed the width. What's happening is along with the images, even the smileys are getting blown up to full post width.

Bot fail!
You have the Custom Design upgrade, and you have increased the default post width. Did you increase the "content width" for images etc accordingly? (Appearance > Custom Design > CSS > Content Width)

When ever I upload the images to a post or a page, the image size shrinks. After adding an image I have to go back to it, increase the size to 130%, that's when I see it as big as the post width. Can any one tell me why is this happening? How can I retrain image size?

Hi tortedinuvole,

Thank you for bringing the issue to our attention!
There was an error in how header images where registered after we went through a maintenance update with Bouquet earlier today.

The issue is resolved now, I apologize for the inconvenience.

hello everyone!
I don't know what's the problem but my header is no more the image I've chosen for my blog.
The theme is Bouquet and I think it's using the default header one.
Any help?

Forever is a border rather than a box shadow so change the CSS to this.

#secondary {
border: none;
}

CSS is theme specific and this thread is about the twenty twelve theme. If you could please start a new thread on this to help prevent future confusion in the CSS forum, I will watch for it.

I too am trying to remove the borders from my social media icons using the Forever theme. I inserted the above code into my custom css and the border is still there. Am I doing something wrong?

The icon can be found at forageandfodder.com

Thanks so much!

Just a quick update. I'm still stuck on the first question.

I did figure out the second question though so ignore that one (I can't seem to figure out where to delete the second question)

Thanks

Hoping for some insight from the WP community!

Also, a separate question...when I'm uploading normal (not screen-grabbed) images, I'm having trouble creating space around them. I click on the image, so that the two icons pop up including the photo image, and I click on it and then the image 'advanced options', and I add some digits in the options for 'horizontal', 'vertical' and 'border'. I click on 'update'. But the (single-digit) numbers I've put in to those boxes make no changes -- the text is still much too squished up to the photos. How do I make these changes stick?

thesacredpath on "Theme Twenty twelve: want to remove borders around my blog widget images"

thesacredpath — Tue, 14 May 2013 18:27:23 +0000

This removes the box shadows from images in the sidebar.

#secondary img {
box-shadow: none;
}

This does not affect the good reads widget borders. I can't seem to find a way to get rid of those with CSS.

lmighton — Tue, 14 May 2013 18:08:23 +0000

I can't quite figure what I'm doing wrong here, or what it is that WordPress isn't liking...
I want to upload an image grab into a blog post. I used the free Mac app Grab, which I've never had problems with before, to size and select the screen grab I want. I saved three versions, as tiff, as jpg and as gif. I've tried adding each into a blog post / the gallery, but on each it won't upload and I get the error message, 'Sorry this file type is not permitted for security reasons'.

Any insights or suggestions?
