In reply to: [User Role Editor] Control not being addedThank you for being there. I have reactivated the plugin for you. I don’t believe it is possible to add a screenshot in this forum, but I will give more details.
My primary objective is to give my client/editor access to more plugin related controls. In this case there is a plugin called MailPoet which in the plugin code still goes by the name Wysija. In the custom capabilities section of the settings for Editor these options are visible:manage_mailpoet
wpseo_bulk_edit
wysija_configwysija_newsletters
wysija_stats_dashboard
wysija_style_tabwysija_subscribers
wysija_theme_tabI have all of these entries checked, with the exception of the manage mailpoet entry which is something I added by mistake and can’t figure out how to delete. In the Admin sidebar there is an envelope icon with the name “Mailpoet” next to it that leads to this plugin’s controls. If I look in the Editor login I would expect that as a result of checking those boxes this Mailpoet option would now have been added to the sidebar. This isn’t happening, and that’s the problem.
Does that give you enough information?
There are probably a few other plugins I would like to give her access to, but since the are not listed I don’t know if this is possible or, if so, how to go about it.

In reply to: [WPFront User Role Editor] Control not being addedThe site is here but I will be continuing to experiment, so I can’t guarantee that the plugin will be active.

In reply to: convert custom MySQL blog into WordPresslopwalj, I guess I am confused. I had reviewed this page before and you seem to be pointing at the part for RSS feeds. Is this correct? When I read the caution about extra lines within paragraphs possibly not turning out right I sort of cringed. If I had to individually review 60+ blog posts I think I would be better off with the cut & paste approach. At least then I would know everything was there without having to scrutinize it. Please let me know if I am misunderstanding.
catacaustic, I’m not sure about the content volume in those terms. I went back to the client and told her we would need to see the MySQL file before we could quote a price because there was no way to predict the complexity of the job. I haven’t been hired yet, so this is a big question mark. If they cooperate this thread can go to the next step.
Thanks to you both

In reply to: [Simple Responsive Slider] portrait view in mobileHere is a link to the solution to this in a THBusiness theme support thread. This solution moves the caption below the image within the slider, and then moves the content on the rest of the page down so the caption isn’t creating a new problem by covering up that instead.
This slider is great, but in mobile view I suspect everyone who uses it with captions will need to do something like this. Too bad the plugin developer is unresponsive.

In reply to: [THBusiness] mobile portrait view adjustmentsThis is the finished solution for anyone else who could use an example.
`@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.caption {
background: rgba(0,0,0,.6);
margin-bottom: -100px;
}
.rslides_container {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.rslides {
overflow: visible;
}
div#home-block {
position: relative;
top: 75px;
}
div.entry-content {
padding-bottom: 3.5em;
}

In reply to: [THBusiness] mobile portrait view adjustmentsThis is a progress report. I could still use help with making this display only in the mobile portrait view on the home page.
I realized that .entry-content contains both the slider and the text below it, so I have given the text a div of it’s own to allow me to control it’s place on the page. I have switched over to this site for the development.
With the following code I have successfully relocated the caption block and moved the following text out of the way—
.caption { background: rgba(0,0,0,.6); margin-bottom: -100px; } .rslides_container { margin-bottom: 20px; } .rslides { overflow: visible; } div#home-block { border: 3px solid #005bd2; position: relative; top: 60px; } div.entry-content { border: 3px solid #d2002d; padding-bottom: 2.3em; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: 404/403 Error for all except adminThanks for the interest. Luckily the host has proven to be an awesome new discovery. I’m not sure what the root problem that began it all was, but they sorted it out.

In reply to: inability to preview pagesAll involved were Admins. Since I was unable to recreate the problem it became clear that it was a browser issue outside of my control. Thanks

In reply to: caption positioning@alchymyth that’s exactly what I needed. Hiding in plain site, I think I might have totally overlooked the margin-top. Thank you!
@rossmitchell, the point I was trying to make is that if all of my changes can be done via custom CSS, then to create a child theme just for one tiny detail would be excessive. The ‘any theme changes at all’ criteria doesn’t really apply to changes which can be made through the Customizer or similar.

In reply to: [THBusiness] link styles!!! I can’t believe I missed that in the customizer! That’s all I needed. Thank you

In reply to: [THBusiness] link stylesI believe all of this worked when I tried it out using Chrome tools…

In reply to: [Simple Responsive Slider] portrait view in mobileA possible alternative would be to hide the caption when in mobile portrait view…

In reply to: [Easy Google Fonts] font changes in admin but unreliable in publicI hadn’t thought to since I am only dealing with the h1-4 tags which already exist. I just tried the H1… it works on Firefox, but doesn’t show up on Chrome. I also tried contacting the theme author. so far they have ignored that query but answered another I posted at the same time. I am afraid I’m going to have to try another method or plugin.
