    I’m using Verbe and I’d like to change the transparency on the navigation’s white background. Is that at all possible? If so, how?

    Thanks.

  • Hi Ghelthon,

    The navigation’s background is white on white background, changing the opacity/transparency wouldn’t achieve much of a change. Do you perhaps mean to change the background color of the dropdown menu items?

    Also, a link to your site would help work out the right CSS.

    Cheers 🙂

    Oh ok, that makes sense. I though that, below the navigation, I would find the header image, so a transparency would play nicely there.

    By the way, my site is this. How can I change the text under the header, in those “boxes”? It seems to be related to widgets, but I don’t have any active widget at the moment.

    Hey Ghelthon,

    The boxes have been programmed to display default content in case you don’t put widgets in place. The files are:
    sidebar-front-page-header-first.php
    sidebar-front-page-header-second.php
    sidebar-front-page-header-third.php

    To change the content there without adding your own widgets, you’ll need to create a child theme, copy over and open each of those templates, then modify the text echoed out by the code. For example, to change the heading of the first box in sidebar-front-page-header-first.php change

    echo '<h3>Many Components</h3>';

    into

    echo '<h3>New Box Title</h3>';

    However, my advice is to add your own widgets. If you add a text widget, you can add any text you want in there, all in the comfort of the widgets admin panel in the back-end. You’ll see that the text that you see now will disappear.

    By the way, your link lands me to an under construction page, therefore I based my solution on your theme’s live demo page:

    I hope this helps 🙂

    You’re right, I had the ‘Coming Soon Mode’ activated!

    It helped, thanks. But since “you’re here”, I’d like to edit yet another thing: if you go to my website, you’ll see a blank space between the widgets behind the header and the widgets on top of the footer. From the original template one can see that that’s the place for some widgets, but I would like to remove that space as I won’t use it.

    Can you explain me how? 🙂

    Thanks in advance.

    @maria Antonietta Perna, @ghelthon

    if you go to Admin Dashboard > Appearance > Theme Options

    you can find option “Show default content ( sidebars )” ( the 7th top option )

    just uncheck it and save options.

    Below the featured section there’s space for the page content, not for more widgets. Because you probably haven’t added any text from the WP page editor to that page, the markup is in place for the content but it’s empty, therefore doesn’t display anything. If you’re sure you’re not going to add more text to the featured content widgets (the 3 blocks), you might mitigate the blank space with this CSS that you can add to a custom CSS editor or a child theme:

    aside.mythemes-features div.feature-item {
        max-height: 80px;
    }

    Also, I suggest you increase the space between the featured content headings and the border below by using this CSS:

    .mythemes-delimiter div.delimiter-item {
        margin-top: 10px;
    }

    I increased the space by 10px but you’re free to go ahead and be more generous with it.
