Hello,
I would love to help, but I will need to look at your website to further assist you. I am predicting that your theme’s styling is setting all the images to a certain height. You can leave the “display featured images” checked off for now, just please send me a link.

Cheers,

Hi,

Please paste this into your custom css:

#adv-recent-posts li.advwidget-item.col-xs-6, #adv-recent-cats li.advwidget-item.col-xs-6, #adv-recent-pages li.advwidget-item.col-xs-6{
padding:0!important;
}

Sorry about the inconvenience. I will look into possibly solving this issue in the next update. For now, adding the above styling should work.

Cheers,
Stephanie

To follow up with this issue, I came out with an update in version 1.02 that allows special characters to be used to register new sidebars. Issue should be resolved.

Oh the other thing I thought of, make sure you actually check of categries/pages in the widgets that come with the plugin. The links will not show up unless you check off what you want to show.

Hello,

First off, I am so sorry it is not working properly for you but hopefully we can figure this out.

Unfortunately I cannot test out the plugin with the theme myself as the theme is not free:( I looked at the theme’s demo but can not see any obvious reasons why it would be doing this.

Is your site public? Is is possible for you to send me a link to look at the issue?

And curious, do any widgets that did not come with my plugin show up properly in the submenu?

You may email me privately if needed – [email protected]

Hello,
Basically you will want to replace that function with your the theme_location name.

So you can remove all of that code or comment it out (by wrapping /*…*/)
and replace with:

if (function_exists(‘widgetize_my_dropdown_menus’)) { widgetize_my_dropdown_menus(‘mx_menu’); }

The list of your theme locations corresponding to your menus can be viewed by going to your admin’s sidebar, Appearance–> “Dropdown menus”.

You will see listed in the dropdown next to “Choose Menu to add widgetize dropdowns to:”, your list of your menus and MENU NAME (which are your theme locations)

Once you have replaced the code, and then chosen the menu you are widgetizing in the Dropdown Menus section, you will be able to widgetize your menu items there. The number of dropdowns depend on number of menu items in that menu. You can add one dropdown per menu item, each widgetized menu item can have up to 4 columns

Hope that clears it up for you.

Cheers,
Stephanie

Alrighty, there is a new update for the plugin – version 1.02 that should resolve your issues.

As for the sidebar, ensure that you have used a page template with a sidebar.

The petfinder plugin does look like it sits to the left of the sidebar when I copied over the sidebar’s code and it seems to work.

See image:

Let me know how it works out.

Hello,

You may be able to fix this by:
REPLACE:
$primaryNav = wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary-menu’, ‘container’ => ”, ‘fallback_cb’ => ”, ‘menu_class’ => $menuClass, ‘menu_id’ => ‘top-menu’, ‘echo’ => false ) );
WITH:
$primaryNav = widgetize_my_dropdown_menus(‘primary-menu’);

If this does not work, I would need to see the rest of the functionality in the file to figure out exactly how this is set up.

It looks like the function to call your menu is first being set to a variable before being called. Unusual but I am certain I can help you get the plugin to work right.

If you can, send me the link to that particular file. You may email me at [email protected]

Cheers,
Stephanie
