I seem to be having some luck by using an 1170 ×500 image with a full-width slider and commenting out the customizr height/width instruction altogether, but the reason it works is specific to my hosting provider which has its own image cropping defaults. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Google App Engine for WordPress] Images load using HTTP instead of HTTPS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-load-using-http-instead-of-https/) * Thread Starter [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-load-using-http-instead-of-https/#post-4561854) * Thanks Stuart – works! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Google App Engine for WordPress] Featured Image Being Cropped](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-being-cropped/) * [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-being-cropped/#post-4533431) * Thanks to Stuart’s reply in another thread, I was able to figure out a workaround for this. Refer to the code for uploads.php here: [https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/appengine-wordpress-plugin/blob/master/modules/uploads.php#L340](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/appengine-wordpress-plugin/blob/master/modules/uploads.php#L340) * Note that if the image does not have a height and width specified, the GAE plugin will not try to resize or crop it. Therefore, if you modify your theme so that it just loads the image as is (“real size”) without specifying dimensions, you should be able to avoid this problem. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Customizr] Crop slider image from top instead of bottom?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/crop-slider-image-from-top-instead-of-bottom/) * [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/crop-slider-image-from-top-instead-of-bottom/#post-3918799) * Hi ElectricFeet – I’ve just encountered the exact same problem you are describing here (an image of a skyline that, cropped from the bottom, is all sky and no line…), but from the looks of your (beautiful!) website I gather your eventual solution was to make the slider fixed width rather than full width. I can live with that, but I’m wondering if you or Nikeo came up with any alternative PHP or CSS way to crop from the top? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Q and A FAQ and Knowledge Base for WordPress] Finding the id of each FAQ](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/finding-the-id-of-each-faq/) * [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/finding-the-id-of-each-faq/#post-3867976) * Mildly embarrassed to say I haven’t been able to figure this out either, but it feels like maybe I’m missing something obvious. Or it could be a bug. * For every individual ID I try specifying I get the most recent FAQ entry I created. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Google App Engine for WordPress] Images load using HTTP instead of HTTPS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-load-using-http-instead-of-https/) * Thread Starter [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-load-using-http-instead-of-https/#post-4561796) * Relatedly, is there a way to serve static files (such as a PDF) over HTTPS rather than HTTP? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Google App Engine for WordPress] Featured Image Being Cropped](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-being-cropped/) * [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-being-cropped/#post-4533427) * Similar problem here – I’m using a theme that sets a slider to be full-screen by setting width to ‘99999 pixels’. The GAE plugin then creates an img with ` src="http://lh5.gghpt.com/...=s99999-c"` which results in a 404 error. Not quite sure how the GAE plugin is programmed, but anything over s9999-c (e.g. s10000- c, but not s9998-c) for that last parameter results in a 404 error. Setting it to 9999 doesn’t really help either as GAE creates a 9,999 pixel-wide image. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Customizr] Display posts page content, not just posts, on posts page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/display-posts-page-content-not-just-posts-on-posts-page/) * Thread Starter [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/display-posts-page-content-not-just-posts-on-posts-page/#post-4561165) * Nice hack, thanks! At first I wasn’t sure that would work, but sure enough, making a sticky post creates an `
` tag and all the header stuff can be easily hidden with the following CSS: * ``` .post-1 .entry-header { display: none; } ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress] Contact form 7 checkbox checked by default?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-form-7-checkbox-checked-by-default-1/) * Thread Starter [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-form-7-checkbox-checked-by-default-1/#post-4510669) * Just what I was looking for, thanks!

I knew there had to be a better way. * For future reference though, if I’m replacing more than just a letter, what is the role of ‘customizr’ in assigning formatting?

Forgive me for bringing back an old topic, but I had a similar question: * On my site I changed the title text of a social icon from ‘Follow me on LinkedIn’ to ‘Follow [my company] on LinkedIn’ by directly editing the text in class-fire- init.php. * Is there a way to do this in functions.php of my child theme instead, so that it won’t be overwritten? * Thanks! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Customizr] Genericons/entypo not displaying](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/genericonsentypo-not-displaying/) * Thread Starter [loudnotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/) * (@loudnotes) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/genericonsentypo-not-displaying/#post-4169271) * Thanks Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 16 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/replies/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loudnotes/replies/page/2/?output_format=md)
