 * Hello,
 * Using BETA 1.0. Is it possible to add byline_effect to text only tiles? Such 
   as hover over and slide-right?
 * thanks

 * Hi kk,
 * Not out of the box. The assumption is that text-only tiles will always show the
   text straight away. The hover effect were born as a way to display the image 
   unobstructed by the text. However, I can see that text-only tiles with a hover
   effect could be nice in places too. I see 2 solution:
 * 1. The hacky one: Give your tiles a 1px color featured image. Then that color
   image will be used as the background for the tile. Now it’s no longer a text-
   only tile, and can you use all the hover effects
 * 2. The more coding one: CSS your own hover effects. Check the current WP Tiles
   scss to see how the hover effects are set up, and apply them to text-only tiles
   in your (child)theme stylesheet.
 * Good luck!

 * Thanks for the response Mike, got the CSS (option 2) working a treat.
