Thanks for those reviews it means a lot 🙂 * Regarding the above filter, it still works with Gutenberg and blocks, its just they don’t get a Layout ID passed down as the second parameter. * So you couldn’t apply the conditions based on ID, like this line: * `if ( absint( $layout_id ) === 123 ) {` * Instead you could test against the current post / page or another wordpress conditional tag – eg: * `if ( is_page( 'contact' ) ) {` * More info on conditional tags: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags](https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags) - This reply was modified 4 years, 5 months ago by [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Layout with text section partly inside top image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/layout-with-text-section-partly-inside-top-image/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/layout-with-text-section-partly-inside-top-image/#post-15163520) * 😀 Glad that all worked out for you in the end! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Nice, but a couple requests](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-but-a-couple-requests/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-but-a-couple-requests/#post-15163505) * Hey [@tylertork](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tylertork/) * Thanks for the feedback! * Regarding your requests: * 1.

You’re right on this – we should add an option to hide the image completely if no image is found – I’ll put that on the todo list! * We already have on the roadmap to add the ability to set a custom image. * Regarding the number requests, there should hopefully only be one extra – for our placeholder SVG – not ideal, but hopefully not too taxing. * All the best – Ross * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Html code on title](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/html-code-on-title/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/html-code-on-title/#post-15163483) * Hi Mark * I’m afraid this won’t be fixable. * Essentially, all the characters in a post title are supposed to be displayed on a website. * 2 main reasons for this: – What if a user wants to enter special characters in their title – we must display them – Security – all data must be escaped before displaying, and this is why you see the html output instead * Another thing to consider is, what would be the page title (in your browsers title) when adding in these codes? I guess they should be invisible… but they are also not supported in the post title. * All in all, this is not supported by WordPress, and also because we match that, our plugin. * What you could do is (if you can do some coding) is to use a PHP filter to change the the text inside the element. * The hook for that can be found here: [https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/](https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/) * You would want to use the one: * ``` add_filter( 'custom-layouts/element/render_output', 'cl_element_render_output', 10, 2 ); ``` * Then you can completely change the html / text inside any element programmatically. * I realise that might not be what you wanted exactly, but these are the current limitations regarding this request. * All the best – Ross - This reply was modified 4 years, 5 months ago by [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/). - This reply was modified 4 years, 5 months ago by [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Query for selecting specific posts by ID](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-for-selecting-specific-posts-by-id/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-for-selecting-specific-posts-by-id/#post-15163464) * Hey John * As I now know you are not using the block editor, then you can modify it like this: * ``` add_filter( 'custom-layouts/layout/query_args', 'layout_query_args_15156524', 10, 2 ); function layout_query_args_15156524( $query_args, $layout_id ) { if ( absint( $layout_id ) === 123 ) { $query_args['post__in'] = array( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ); } return $query_args; } ``` * In this example, you would change `123` for the layout ID you do want to be affected( when you edit a layout, you can find the ID in the address bar). * Let me know how you get on with that?

Everything is contained in an ourter container, the **Template**. 2. If you have the featured image enabled, you then have two containers – **featured media**, and **section** 3. Inside the section, are where all your other elements appear when you add them / drag them on to the template * So, what you want to do is: 1. Carefully select **section** 2. Edit the margins to add spacing to the side 3. Add negative margin to the top * Heres a little GIF I made of the process: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fD2NnDeX_hSz_1Np76vakiPZO-1MLkCb/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fD2NnDeX_hSz_1Np76vakiPZO-1MLkCb/view?usp=sharing) * I actually thought you would have to do this with CSS + custom classes, but it looks like the negative margin in our UI works just fine! * Let me know if that works out ok for you. * Best * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Query for selecting specific posts by ID](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-for-selecting-specific-posts-by-id/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-for-selecting-specific-posts-by-id/#post-15155798) * Hey [@dsl225](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsl225/) * I think what you want might be possible… there are two routes I see: * **1.** You can place individual post templates, and choose them by ID. * Via gutenberg: You can place multiple post template blocks (there is a search box to find which post to choose) * Via our admin screen with the template editor: you will see on the right a metabox, for a shortcode for that post template. You can replace the post ID with any ID you choose * **2. **You could modify the query using a hook (you’d need to be comfortable doing a bit of php coding to get what you want) – this is the hook you would want: `add_filter( 'custom-layouts/layout/query_args', 'layout_query_args', 10 );` Found: [https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/](https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/) * You can add a `$query_args['post__in'] = array( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 );` to specify IDs of posts to display. * I hope that helps! * Best - This reply was modified 4 years, 6 months ago by [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/). - This reply was modified 4 years, 6 months ago by [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Layouts - Post + Product grids made easy] Custom Fields No Longer Working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-no-longer-working-2/) * Plugin Author [Code Amp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/) * (@codeamp) * [4 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-no-longer-working-2/#post-15146537) * Hey [@sinnamon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sinnamon/) * That sounds odd indeed. * From what I can tell, nothing regarding our custom field element was changed in our recent updates – so it does sound odd its not working – but maybe a change has eluded me. * To get to the bottom of this can you confirm a couple of things? * 1. Edit the yoga posts in question and double check the custom field is there with a value * 2. Double check the custom field key – if you are using ACF to create custom fields, then this uses 3 keys for any custom field: * ``` _my_custom_field my_custom_field field_123456 ``` * What you would need is the second version, without the underscore: `my_custom_field`– but its possible you’re not using ACF * 3. Can you share a link to the page in question? * Thanks Viewing 15 replies - 196 through 210 (of 415 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/13/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/?output_format=md) [2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/2/?output_format=md) [3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/3/?output_format=md)… [13](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/13/?output_format=md) 14 [15](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/15/?output_format=md)… [26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/26/?output_format=md) [27](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/27/?output_format=md) [28](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/28/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codeamp/replies/page/15/?output_format=md)
