 * Thanks for getting back to me. I think I have it resolved for now. Not sure why
   it was doing that, but it may be because of the local dev environment I am using.
   Prior to the issue surfacing, I had just updated my local dev application and
   the update may have caused something to go awry (although my other site w/ the
   AB theme was still working fine) but it’s stable and working, now.
 * To resolve the issue, I deactivated the plugin, everything went back to working(
   except for the AB Blocks, obviously). I then deleted and reinstalled the plugin,
   flushed permalinks and everything seemed to go back to working and I haven’t 
   experienced any further issues… it was just so strange how it was working fine
   one minute, then the next, it just kept doing this. I lost a little bit of the
   content in my AB blocks, but it wasn’t that huge of a deal since I wasn’t that
   far along. I had wp_debug turned active and wasn’t getting any errors, but next
   time (if it happens again; hopefully not) I’ll be sure to check the console log
   as I sometimes forget about that option. If it wasn’t as stable moving forward,
   I’d probably be afraid to use it, but this was just a one-off thing that I’m 
   chalking up to that Local dev app update, so I think I’m in the clear… hopefully
   😉
 * Thanks again for the help. I’m really enjoying use of the plugin and (unrelated
   here) the AB Theme. It’s made working with the new Gutenberg editor a lot more
   preferable to the classic editor for general posts and pages, although I still
   prefer a more form-like page structure for custom post type meta and such… but
   eventually, I’ll get to experimenting more w/ the Gutenberg features for that
   sort of content. I definitely appreciate the time spent working on these tools
   for the community!

 * If you can, open the page in Chrome and use the developer tools to check out 
   the specific selector in question. This (I believe) is under the ‘view’ menu 
   item. My guess is that the plugin stylesheet is overriding any similarly named
   classes from your theme as you could have a conflict as AB uses some very generalized
   class names. This can be viewed by looking at the panel that provides the properties
   for the related selector in question, usually on the right. You’ll need to select
   the element on the page with the pointer tool so the panel will provide the specifics
   for that item on the page. You can then see if those incorporate chained selectors
   and use a class or other selector from a parent element to increase the specificity
   of your edited style from your theme to override whatever styling the plugin 
   is outputting. For more details, check out this link:

 * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/all-widgets-have-text-align-right-applied/#post-11150579)
 * Because AB’s styles are called after the theme’s styles, the page is going to
   default to whatever properties AB is using for that class name. The easiest way
   to override is to use a chained selector and use CSS’s cascading properties to
   override the AB selector.
 * You would do this in your child theme’s styles.css file. Simply find where .right
   class is, then go in and right under it, use a parent element’s classname with
   the .right class and put in properties you want to use for that scenario.
 * For example, say the body element has a class of ‘x-theme’ or some other arbitrary
   selector class name or ID. You can then use `.x-theme .right {...}` to override.
 * If the selector using the `.right` class has another class name used w/ `.right`,
   you can just use that class directly prepended to the `.right` class. For example,`.
   sidebar.right {...}`.
 * I do this all the time to override styles forced over my theme’s styles by plugins,
   auto-generated in the head, etc.

 * Yes, that’s it. Hmmm. I did try doing due-diligence and searching topics but 
   nothing came up in the forum. Shortly thereafter, I found several blog posts 
   from other devs discussing this issue.
 * No worries. I ended up just eliminating the widget area altogether by unhooking
   it in my theme and hard coding this into the functions file, then re-hooking 
   back into the header. Probably for the best anyhow, as I don’t want a client 
   fidgeting w/ this. Were this a theme for the theme market, it would probably 
   be a bigger problem, but since it’s a custom theme for a client, I believe having
   it hard coded is going to be a better solution anyhow.
 * I’ll mark this as resolved, at least for my particular needs. Thanks!

 * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/product-thumbnails-position-left-and-display-vertically/page/2/#post-8974634)
 * Okay, I answered my own question… to change the product column number, just add
   a filter, like so (I actually found this example in the woocommerce docs after
   a lot of sifting through the template parts and searching the various hooks and
   filters):
    [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/change-number-of-thumbnails-per-row-in-product-galleries/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/change-number-of-thumbnails-per-row-in-product-galleries/)
 * Once you change the column class to display just a single column, you can change
   the widths of the various containers and image classes and apply the necessary
   floats to get the vertical columns either right or left.
 * The easiest way to override default woocommerce classes is to apply a unique 
   body class to your template pages either in the template files themselves or 
   using conditional statements in your functions.php file, then use hierarchy/inheritance
   to add the styles necessary to change the default woocommerce styles (if those
   styles are already declared in the included woocommerce styles.) If they aren’t,
   then you can just use the class names as-is and add your style declarations to
   the various selectors.

 * I’ve figured out how to do this for the most part just using CSS (although I’m
   floating my thumbnails right) but one of the problems is the column count class
   in the template. I’m not sure how to change this.
 * I’m looking at the woocommerce_product_thumbnails and woocommerce_before_template_part
   action hooks to see where is implemented but I’m not having any luck. Basically,
   I just need to change the class from “thumbnails column-3” to “thumbnails column-
   1” and the rest I can take care of.
 * If anyone can point me in the right direction, I’d be grateful!

 * (@thoughtwell)
 * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-product-archive-title/#post-8953025)
 * Okay, so instead of all of this, I ended up finding the `genesiswooc_product_archive`
   and `genesiswooc_content_product` functions (thanks, hookr.io) in the `template-
   loader.php` file within the plugin and copying those functions over to my template.
 * I then removed the title and archive description output from both those, then
   renamed them and stuck the revised functions into my template page where the 
   OG code went. Since this is where the title and description are declared and 
   that bit was removed, there’s no need to remove the action responsible for this
   higher up in the template, so I deleted those.
 * Because I renamed the functions, I don’t have to worry about updates to the plugin
   effecting this, but I guess I will need to keep tabs on any major changes to 
   woocommerce and adjust my code as needed down the road.
 * A simple idea of how to remove the title through a hook like I’m able to do w/
   the description would have been ideal to do what I wanted to do, but since that
   information wasn’t forthcoming (I’m kind of a novice, here), this solution will
   seem to do unless someone else can fill me on how that title is hooked into the
   page, since as a filter, all I was able to do was return false, and I didn’t 
   want to completely take the title away.

 * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get_the_powerpress_content-not-working/#post-8844439)
 * Okay, checked settings and they are consistent w/ your suggestion. I am also 
   using get_the_powerpress_content(); as mentioned in my code snippet… I’ve actually
   used several variations of it as well as the do_shortcode(‘[power press]’); tag/
   function and still no luck. I looked deeper at my code and the irony is, in the
   CPT archive where I use WP_Query, it will work. Where it’s not working (the deeper-
   level taxonomy archive page) I’m actually NOT using a new Query since it’s using
   the default taxonomy loop… so I was incorrect in my explanation. But still, no
   luck.
 * While it would be nice if I can get it working so we can have the audio player
   sitting in tandem with our video presentations, in all honesty, I kind of perceive
   this as being redundant when there’s a video sitting right along next to it. 
   Most likely, a user will opt to utilize the video vs. an audio feed in most cases
   when they’re _on site_ viewing content. The audio content makes more sense to
   use when _off-site_, and for that, it would probably be more to podcast users’
   preference to have them subscribe to the podcast feed, directly using whatever
   service they typically use to consume this type of content.
 * Therefore, until I (or someone in your camp or out on the internet trying to 
   do the same) can figure it out, I’ll probably just include a modal popup that
   pulls up the subscription options, calling that page content from the subscription
   page. I can still include the latest podcast within a player in the featured 
   block on the next-level up (CPT Archive where it works).
 * This seems like the most logical workaround without reinventing the wheel. However,
   if you come up w/ a reason why get_the_powerpress_content(); won’t work on a 
   taxonomy loop and the issue gets resolved, perhaps we can introduce the audio
   player later. It’s a compromise, but the modal subscription option should do…
   at least for now. Unfortunately, as more of a front-end fellow, I don’t quite
   have the skill-set to dissect the plugin’s code and figure this out.
 * Thank you, Angelo. Any and all help is certainly appreciated.

 * Hey Angelo, thanks for getting back to me on this. It makes sense what you said
   about using them (podcasts) in the past… it’s likely that back before the complete
   overhauling of the site, the church was using the sermons under the standard 
   feed… which is good to know, because the media director and myself were kind 
   of wondering where all those were going to.
 * I’ll follow your suggestion and just use the options tick box to turn it off 
   on those other screens–most of the folks contributing probably won’t go turn 
   it back on anyhow… but I would welcome your feature update for those using PTPs
   vs. the standard feed, as it would completely remove that std. entry box.
 * As I play around w/ the plugin a bit more, it’s beginning to make more sense…
   like I had noticed that the PTP editor carries over the same meta fields as the
   general editor, but it’s completely separate. This was a little confusing at 
   first until I realized that it’s pretty much its own thing and the ‘standard’
   feed is completely separate.
 * Thanks again for the fast response. I’ll look at future update notes to see if
   that feature becomes available if you have a chance to bake that in. As far as
   I’ve come across, this plugin is definitely the most full featured and seems 
   to have the best workability towards integrating more on a theme level than any
   of the other plugins and services we’ve vetted.
