Hi @edwardbuck,
We’ve seen that issue a few times, its where your theme uses it’s blog layout to output the sermons because it has no specific sermon layouts within your theme. Depending on the theme, this could look fine and other times it looks bad.
There are two options:
1. Turn on the plugin view templates in Sermon Manager settings and see if that gives you a better output.
2. Usually our recommended best practice is to take a copy of the files in the plugin ‘views’ folder and put them into the root of your theme. There you can edit those files and they will override how your theme outputs the sermons.
Options 2 does require fairly advances knowledge of WordPress and if you don’t have anyone with those capabilities, we do offer that as a service, i.e. we would set up a custom layout for your sermons. If you are interested you can email us at hello@wpforchurch.com.
Hope that helps. In Sermon Manager v3 we are going to have a much better rendering engine meaning it will be completely isolated from you theme, allowing for much better layouts out of the box. That’s still a couple of months away at this stage.
Regards,
Igor
Hello Igor,
Thanks for your quick reply. I tried option 1. It does appear to no longer be using the standard blog template, but I still have three players overlapping. I’ll try option 2 and see if I can figure it out.
Thanks,
Ed
Hi @edwardbuck,
Could you please update to Sermon Manager 2.10 and try selecting “Browser HTML5”
as a value for dropdown under option named “Audio Player” in Sermon Manager settings?
Hey @nikolam,
That worked great! Thanks for your help.
Glad to hear it!
If you are happy with the plugin, please leave a review here, it means a lot to us. <3
