    Many threads for the new update…
    Many fixes and and a community with knowledge and experience.
    I use evolve since 2015. i made my schools’ website, it took me a hole summer in 2015 to make it happen. My students and the teachers of Lefkada (A small ionian island in greece) and now from all Greece loved the site and evolve (Romik) is one of the reasons.
    Also one of the reasons is all of u, who helped me at once all these years. So i’m starting the thread with this big (sorry 4 that) intro, saying a big thank U!!!

    I made this thread to post some things that it would be nice to be done in order to have a great site.

    1. @abigailm gave me a css to make the header contain in one row the big title and tagline. Hope Romik include this option to a new update.

    2. The bootstrap slider keeps his font in mobile and title looks messy.
    Romik??? 🙂

    3. In desktop view, my submenu items are many and because of big margin in the list the user needs to scroll to view the hole submenu list. So i’d like to shrink a little the submenu items, only in desktop mode. Any code 4 this one?

    4.is there a way to have smaller height buttons in front page content boxes?

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the intro and encouraging words. Quickly to your questions:

    1.

    Hope Romik include this option to a new update.

    Definitelly will be, but if cannot wait, try this. Edit file in template-parts/header/header-tagline-above.php, line #25, new code:

    $evolve_helper_tagline_class_1 = '<div class="col col-lg-auto order-2">';

    it should fix the issue. Test it as long as you need 😀

    2. and 3. – getting 500 error on your website

    4. Sure, Dynamic CSS:

    .home-content-boxes .btn {
    padding-top: 2px!important;
    padding-bottom: 2px!important;
}

    modify per your needs 😉

    how u wish to display the slider instead?

    For the menu try Additional CSS:

    @media (min-width: 768px)
.navbar-nav li a {
    line-height: 2em;
}

    @nickpapag hi.
    Sorry for hijacking the thread.
    Do you have the theme translated in Greek?
    If yes can you please upload the translations’s el.po file in https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/evolve/el/default/import-translations?This way we could make the evolve theme available in Greek for every one.

    Thanks in advance

    @romik84 i’ll display the slider as it is for now. i’m working all day to make fixes and this is not the major priority now. The server problems make my life a bit hard.

    @lenasterg : no Lena unfortunately the theme is not translated in greek. do you have a site in evolve? Post url.

    @lenasterg Thanks for the interest and help. The theme actually already includes the required file, it’s located under languages/evolve.pot. el.po is tranlated partially.

    @nickpapag, not yet, but we are in a process of looking for new themes for blogs.sch.gr subsites which are in greek language.
    Also, as member of the Greek locale managers team https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=el we are looking for people interested in volunteering for translating WordPress, themes, plugins.
    So, if you are interested, you can help translating evolve theme in https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/el/default/wp-themes/evolve

    Again sorry for hijacking the thread.

    Dear Romik84,
    I just followed what you have mentioned (Editing line 25 in file template-parts/header/header-tagline-above.php) but nothing happened. Same problem still exists.

    I would like to let you know that this problem only appears when open site using Edge or IE, but when opening it using Chrome the problem is not there.

    Try to open my site http://nidal.awartany.com/ using Chrome and Edge (or IE) to see the problem.

    Regards,

    Nidal

    Romik the menu is perfect now with your code.
    The content buttons too.
    Now i’m in a great mood to make the little details on the new version.

    And one more thing.
    The score of the site in pingdom is now 95%
    With previouw version 72%

    Waiting for the small fixes and everything will be perfect again!

    GREAT JOB!!!
    Thank u!

    @nidalious probably a cache..checked with Chrome and Edge, both work fine on your website

    @nickpapag new version which I am preparing I was able to reach Pingdom 99%, GTMetrix 99%, Google Speed 90%…Google made me crazy 😀 😀 😀

    Dear Romik84,

    Thank you, clearing the cache was the issue, big thump-up.
