Most of the padding around the menu items is controlled by the following CSS rule:
` .main-navigation ul li {
padding: 0.75em 1em 0.75em 0;
}`The 4 number values correspond to; top, right,bottom, left.
I would question your choice to tighten this up. The menu items are already very close.

In reply to: [Sela] Gallery alignmentI’m back with a postscript, so to speak.
The above “solution” which I though was good turned out to not be effective. After searching around for code snippets that might work I was able to cobble together code that worked very well:.gallery { display: flex; justify-content: center; flex-wrap: nowrap; } .gallery-columns-3 { display: flex; justify-content: center; flex-wrap: wrap; width:80%; } #gallery-6 { margin:0 auto; }By making the gallery a flex container I was able to nicely center it.
The first bit on the class .gallery worked for the 8-column gallery, but it didn’t quite adjust the 3-column gallery in a way that I liked so I added a few more rules. The .gallery-columns-3 rule made it less than 100%, 80% seemed to be the sweet spot. and then the #gallery-6 rule zeroed in on that specific gallery and used the standard margin centering for block elements.
Both galleries seem to work in mobile, though I didn’t widely test this.I hope this helps with anyone else wishing to center galleries in the Sela theme.

In reply to: [Sela] Getting rid of “fixed” pageIt’s not a theme issue. Check your menus.

In reply to: [Sela] Gallery alignmentI might have found a solution.
I thought that if I made the gallery container (.gallery or .gallery-columns-3) less than 100% and use the margin:0 auto to align that container on the page it might work and it did. You have to fiddle with the percentage based on the number of columns but it also seems stable in mobile.
I’m leaving the previous method up for a bit so you can still see how that method is not working.

In reply to: [Sela] Gallery alignmentThanks but this seems ineffective.
I have a 3-column gallery on one page where nothing seems to change.
And I have an 8-column gallery where I got it to work, with calc(11.5%), but it breaks on phone and tablet view.
The 3-column also breaks on phone and tablet view.
3-column: http://owls.wpstudent.net/gallery-of-maine-owls/
8-column: http://owls.wpstudent.netAny alternative fix would be appreciated.

In reply to: [Sela] Gallery alignmentThanks for your quick and explanatory response. I get it.
Could you post the suggested CSS to center align galleries? That would be appreciated and would provide the added benefit of providing an example for when I teach CSS basics.

In reply to: [Image Gallery - Responsive Photo Gallery] UnresponsiveThank for you well thought out letter.
I do not believe that I am spamming or blackening with one star. I am merely stating the obvious in a public feedback forum about an open source product, which is exactly the way this community grows and gets better.
I do like many of the things your plugin does and because you took the time to respond I bumped up my rating to two stars.I still disagree that the distorted images is a “limitation”. If you want to offer limitation on your plugin you’d simply turn off certain features. You can still show that they exist and features that can be bought. It’s very enticing to see that other possibilities are available should someone buy the pro version. This is how most developers handle freemuim plugins. And the fact that you offered me a fix just because I complained about it shows me that your business model is slightly out of whack. Just think of the business you are loosing when people try out your plugin, sees how it distorts the images and then move on the the next one.
I hope you can see I mean no malice, just interested in you plugin being a better user experience.
I thought I’d check back in on this issue now that we are running 4.7
Interestingly enough the colorization now works in Firefox (v50.1) !
Unfortunately it is NOT working in Safari(v10.0.1) or Chrome (v55.0.2883.95)
In those browsers it’s that the grey shade version does not appear. You simply see the color version with no transition on hover.Please notify this thread when you’ve fixed this.

Let’s just say that this is a bad business model. You are basically giving someone something that’s broken and telling them that you won’t fix it until they pay you.
If you don’t want to provide a function that works properly than you need to disable it in the free version and let folks know that it is available in the paid version. People are less likely to want to buy your pro version if they see the shoddy way you made the free version.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [HeadSpace2 SEO] Problem with WP 4.5I just spent a few hours looking around for good replacements for Headspace2.
I like Greg’s High Performance SEO https://wordpress.org/plugins/gregs-high-performance-seo/
also Add Meta Tags looks like a good replacement for headspace2 , though a little geeky in it’s assumption of tech language. https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-meta-tags/
There is also a converter which promises to convert your Headspace2 data to the other plugins (works with the two above mentioned plugins.) :
SEO Data Transporter: https://wordpress.org/plugins/seo-data-transporter/ I used this to convert a site with about 20 pages and as many posts that used Headspace2. Converted to Greg’s HP SEO and it seems like it worked.I don’t work for any of the above plugins, just though it might help the other folks finding who stumbled upon this post in their attempts to fi their headspace2-4.5 compatibility issue.
-cheers,
GMI made an attempt to go back to square one and use the debugging code snippet that Jeremy mentioned at the beginning.
define('WP_DEBUG', true); if ( WP_DEBUG ) { @error_reporting( E_ALL ); @ini_set( 'log_errors', true ); @ini_set( 'log_errors_max_len', '0' ); define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true ); define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false); define( 'CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false ); define( 'SAVEQUERIES', true ); }I then attempted to connect to my site from WordPress.com and checked the debug.log = nothing. I then, from the Jetpack side, disconnected and reconnected to WordPress.com: debug.log = nothing.
It makes me wonder on the effectiveness of this debugging code snippet.
Is there a more robust debugging tool I can use to track the requests, etc.
I looked at the raw log data which I have access to via cPanel but it simply registers that there were requests from WordPress.com and no other details.Impasse.
So I made some fresh attempts to connect from WordPress.com and with the modSecurity deactivated and the IPs whitelisted, I’m still having the same problems.
I’m not sure what to try now.
@jeremy
GreenGeeks wants to know the WAN IP from which the requests are coming from. I’m at a loss on that.New wrinkle.
So I requested the log of the User Agent/ Referrer requests from Green Geeks. i even made some new attempts to connect from WordPress.com so as to give them fresh data.
They however came back to me by disabling the ModSecurity rule (900161).Interestingly enough this had no effect I’m still get the red banner alerts “Error fetching plugins” and “Error returning Site Settings”, though curiously the red badge with the exclamation point is no longer appearing beside the site name in the left sidebar.
Also not that I set up a subdomain with a fresh installation of WordPress and no plugins other than Jetpack, so as to rule out plugin conflict. Same exact problem.
I re-requested the server request data mentioned above and will relay it to Jeremy via contact form when (if) II get it.
@jeremy
Thanks. I forwarded your request to green Geeks but they don’t understand what you want.
Is there another way to rephrase this;Could you ask Green Geeks to send you the full XML-RPC requests that triggered the rule, and forward me that information?
