In reply to: Thumbnails slightly squeezed when hoverHi, there is no ‘image squeeze to left a bit’ from my end. I’m using FF, Chrome, Edge, all latest on Windows 10. What browser you are using? ’cause this might be browser compat issue as the transform property might not work properly in some old browser.

In reply to: How to delete white space bar on homepageHi, for longevity of the project, it’s better not to edit theme files. Keep theme files as is, untouched. We make changes in CSS via Custom CSS plugin or style.css of child theme.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Menu on phone not workingRE 1 The menu problem
I just view page source and still see the
<h3>instead of<button>, so I guess you opened the wrong file. The right file to make change to isheader.phpin child theme folder, not parent theme folder.RE 2 The index.php in permalink
There is no need for user to do anything to theme file, WP has permalink setting page in admin for user to configure, see detail in this link
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_PermalinksThis is the permalink editing screen in admin
https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Permalinks_ScreenIn most use case, just pick Custom and put in
%postname%, and do nothing else, WP will create.htaccessfile that will manage the rewrite rule for url. If you have done this and nothing changes, it’s most likely the server issue, so talk to your webhosting support.RE 3 the suffix-n in post/page permalink
Yes, it’s there where it says “Permalink:” click on it and just delete the suffix-n and click save post/page.
Also make sure old deleted post/page in Trash status are deleted permanently. Normally when we delete post/page, it’s just removed to Trash and stay there for a while, so that post/page is still using the permalink so when we have create new post/page with same name the url get suffix-n.

In reply to: Feature image does not display properly on mobileThe problem is this max-width value that should be 100% instaed of fix pixel.
.post-img img { max-width:1080px; height:auto; }But I can’t say for sure, it’s not normal for theme nowaday that don’t use responsive image CSS. Maybe it’s the theme settings that not configured correctly, or maybe it’s the case of user makes changes to theme file incorrectly.
Since the theme you are using is a commercial theme, so it’s best to go through its own support channel.
But meanwhile this piece of CSS will fix it (I only tested it in my browser web dev tool).
.post-img img { max-width: 100%; }The code must be used via theme’s Custom CSS option, or via Custom CSS plugin for it to work (because it needs to be loaded after theme’s main CSS).

In reply to: Twenty eleven menue doesn't work with tochscreenThat is a flaw in web technology. The drop down menu in PC relies on hover state, that we control the appearance via CSS, doesn’t work properly in mobile/tablet device, unless there is a fix via JS.
So we can apply that fix using a plugin like this
https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinynav/screenshots/or get rid of the drop down behavior all together, this requires some background knowledge on UX that the drop down menu is actually a bad UX people keep doing it just because it has become a normal — it’s very important that we understand this problem otherwise nobody would want to make proper change just because the majority is still doing it.
Goodbye to 8 Design Elements Whose Time has Come
https://uxmag.com/articles/goodbye-to-8-design-elements-whose-time-has-comeSite structure is important too. For example, your site right now keeps the event posts in submenu(dropdown) and this is bad because the most crucial pages are hidden by default and require user interaction to reveal them.
There are many ways to fix this;
Having that crucial update listed in sidebar.
- Having that crucial update listed in sidebar, AND keep menu as is in PC by display none that sidebar section in widescreen and display normal (CSS display block) in small screen situation via media queries.
- Use posts instead of page/subpage, so that we can make one clickable link to post’s tag or category and have all that info listed in an archive manner (so we don’t need dropdown menu, we’ll just have 1 level menu, and that’s good.)
- Keep the site structure as is (with page/subpage), but on the parent page, instead of having it empty, install a list subpage plugin (that we can put in a list subpage shortcode), then we make one clickable link to the parent page that act like post’s archive (so we don’t need dropdown menu, we’ll just have 1 level menu, and that’s good.)

In reply to: [Customizr] Creating Customizr Child Theme?I use WordPress through Godaddy and have no files saved on my computer regarding themes and contents.
That’s everybody is doing. Everything hosted on the server. We can manage files and folder via FTP or cPanel, it’s like File Explorer in our personal computer but it’s working on server.
You can see the info here, specific to your hosting.
https://www.godaddy.com/help/logging-in-to-cpanel-shared-hosting-8884Be very careful when editing files live on the server. Never work on the site unless we have full site backup first.
https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_BackupsIt’s best to setup a local copy using XAMPP or WAMP so we can make changes, try different things and not worrying about the mistake. When happy with the result, update the site via FTP or cPanel.

In reply to: How can I change my widget appearance?This piece of CSS will do just that
.side-widget h3 { background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) url("http://www.fayesfx.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/cropped-SFX-MAKE-UP.jpg") no-repeat scroll center -261px; border-color: #aaaaaa; color: #222222; }Copy and paste the code above in Custom CSS option. See if the theme you use come with this option, if it doesn’t install one of those Custom CSS plugins, and use that code in it.
The code above making use of header image (less image loaded, better site performance), it will look right this.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Menu on phone not workingTry this solution
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-twelve-responsivemobile-menu-button-not-working?replies=14#post-6317906On a different issue, notice the url with index.php, I think you should get rid of it, it has something to do with permalink setting.
Also, there are some page with suffix-2, like /contact-us-2, you can change it to just /contact, it’s configurable under post/page title when in editing page. The suffix is automatically created by WP, because there is the another (old) post/page with that name and it’s not completely deleted yet.
I’m happy to help.
I assure you, the sidebar bg color is #3c5680 all the way down on that long page, no black area. I’m on Windows 10, using FF, Chrome, Edge all latest version.
Try changing the color value to red (or whatever), see if it appears as red in your browser, this is to test if there is really a caching issue.

In reply to: Removing top menu bar and header on one page only.Try this
.page-id-32 .site-header { display: none; }With this code you don’t need to use that specific plugin (it should work with it though), the code could go into any Custom CSS plugin because WP generated CSS class, the .page-id-32.
Hi Mark, I’ve just viewed your site and sidebar bg color appears to be #3c5680 all the way, even if I took out the !important (via Firebug).
So I think it’s your browser cache preventing you to see the changes, please clear browser cache and reload.
