Can you give me some more info about why you can only use the random choice option? Is the Specific Book option not in the drop down? Is it not working?
If you wish to center the contents of the widget you’ll have to write custom CSS.
Something like this would center the image
img.mbm-widget-cover {
margin: auto !important;
display: block;
}
Hello there!
thanks a lot for you quick reply.
When I am in the widget area and I select for example newest first or any option rather than random, then on the page, the widget area appears blank, with only the title I had put.
OK Something isn’t working correctly. I will look into that.
OK Having looked at your site, I didn’t look at all of the books but the several that I did didn’t have any release dates entered. Any of the widgets that rely on dates ( newest and coming soon) will not return any books.
However the specific book widget should definitely be working so I will look into that.
Oh I see. I thought it was related to the order of uploading.
At the moment I left the random which is ok, but If I could pick the specific book that would be great.
I look forward to hearing from you
thanks a lot indeed
best,
isabella
When you select Specific Book in the widget, did you get an additional drop down with the list of books to choose from?
hello ! yes i do but it’s empty..
thanks
Hmmmm….. would you be willing to make me an admin account on your site so that I can check it out? You can use the email address [email protected]
sure. did you receive the email ?
please let me know
thanks a lot
I was able to log in but I don’t appear to have privileges to view the widgets settings.
i am sorry, can you try again ? thanks a lot
None of your books have titles. The drop down list actually is populated but you can’t see any text because you haven’t entered any for the books. I verified this by looking at the Books page and every book has (no title) instead of a title.
I didn’t put the title because I don’t like the way it appears on the page. I prefer to have just the book cover. So you are saying that if I don’t put the tile I cant see the list in the drop down menu? understand…
the only way to change the title font is to check with my theme? is that correct?
thanks a lot for your help
Without a title you have no way for WordPress to display words to help you identify which book you want.
If you don’t want the title to appear on your book page, you will need to use custom CSS to hide it.
I think something like this will do the trick, however without having a title displayed I can only guess:
.single-mbdb_book .entry-title {
display: none;
}
If you don’t like the font your theme uses for post/page titles, your options are:
- Check your theme’s settings to see if you can change it
- Use Custom CSS to change the font to your choosing
- Change themes
thanks a lot
the thing is that the font used for the titles of the book is the same font of the text of my posts, not of the titles. If it was the fonts of the titles I would be happy with that.
I’ll give you an example…
https://www.boundlessroads.com/books/
see the last book at the end of the page? it looks weird… the position the title is located and the font . It would be nicer if it was on top of the book cover and in bold.
that font that you are seeing are like the text of my posts. So if i change that in the theme setting I would change the post font and I don’t want that.
another note
If i purchase the PRO version, would I be able to have more flaxibility in the book display order and I would have access to other features?
thanks a lot for all your help
i really appreciate it
