Hey guys and gals,
I’m testing out the latest version of the DW Focus theme and am having a lot more luck getting everything to work right now. Thanks for the continued updates!
Anyways I did come across the News Slider. If you go to http://dev.mallorypainting.com/ , you’ll notice the slider cutting the headline off at the bottom. How do I make it larger? Thanks!
Hi,
To resolve this issue, you can add the following code to the style.css file:
.dw_focus_widget_news_slider .carousel-inner img {
height: 400px;
}
Hope this helps !
Thank you, that worked well.
Now on the same news slider, there are some dates posted and other slides just have the clock symbol. How could I make it so it posts the date on all of them and not just some of them? Even down in the news lists below the slider, there are some dates missing. I have the "Post date" check marked in each widget so it should be working.
The date only occurs once per day. ie for 2 posts on the same day one will be without the date. It is a WP function. To get what you want replace with the php function get time, You can open the \wp-content\themes\dw-focus\inc\widgets\dw-focus-news-slider.php
file and find the line 101.
Instead of using: the_date();
Use the following: the_time('F j, Y');
See the screenshot: http://prntscr.com/7hikd0
NOTE: You can find the_date();
in your template folder in one or many of the .php files. Simply replace where desired.
Hope this helps !
Thank you, that worked perfectly.
Hi!
I am facing the same issue. But when adding that code the images get stretched out when visiting the website using a smaller window, like the phone. Is there any other way around? I tried to resize the images to 500×400 but nothing changes.
Please send me your site URl Focus further checking.
Same problem as Yvonne I think.
If you add the custom css and make the slider image 400px, it makes the image look fine on a desktop. But on a mobile device the slider image is too tall and looks stretched.
How can you keep the desktop at 400px, but reduce the image to fit a smaller viewport?
You can use the following code:
@media (min-width: 997px) {
.dw_focus_widget_news_slider .carousel-inner img {
height: 400px;
}
}
If you still face there issue, you can send me your site for further checking.
That fixed it! Thank you!
