In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingAgreed – a more concise verbiage is needed.
Thank you for all of your help! This has been an interesting discovery process (appreciate reminder that things can break since that hasn’t been top of mind as you prob already suspected). All set – for real this time!Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingSorry, I have a follow-up related to my homepage slideshow. I just noticed that on the mobile version only, the post title gets cut off. Is there a way to fix this so that the entire post headline shows on mobile view of slideshow? That’s where most traffic views the blog.

In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingThank you for the tip on reviewing CSS to ensure universal consistency 🙂
The CSS for the font family worked so I am all set!

In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingThanks, Jerry for the response.
Thank you for clarifying #5 regarding feature size. The recommended code works well.
The only outstanding question is what css code can I use to change the headliner font in my post. I understand that, for my basic needs, I should use a system / web safe font such as Helvetica (Jerry, that article was a helpful send) however I am not sure what CSS code to input.

In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer Appearing1. Post Excerpts: Okay. Is there an alternate solution related to a “more-read” function? Are you familiar? Assuming it is a simple solution. (My plugin works exactly as intended but I’m hoping to reduce dependency on plugins for every roadblock!)
2. Live Link: Thank you! This worked exactly as I’d hoped.
3. Category Dropdowns, Homepage: That could work, yes! Will look into how to do this, thank you.
4. Post Headlines: Interesting. Re: design/performance, does that hold true for changing the font family across other parts of the website or specifically for the post entry headers? I ask because I implemented other font family changes previously such as:
.entry-content, .navigation {
font-family: cambria,Helvetica,sans-serif;
}
h2.entry-title, h2.entry-title a {
font-size: 26px;
font-weight: 500;
text-transform: none !important;
letter-spacing: 0.05em;
font-family: cambria,Helvetica,sans-serif;
}5. Feature Image Size on Homepage: New one: How can I reduce the size of the feature image of the homepage posts? (The featured trio posts inherit a small neat size but the regular homepage posts are quite huge!)

In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingHi Fotis – After many repeated attempts it connected to the WP + Bluehost account option and my slideshow is back. Thank you flagging the source of the issue.
I have a few more questions:
1. Post Excerpts: I am currently using a Plugin-In in order to provide a Post excerpt view since this theme only appears to provide the full view of a post. Is there a way to achieve this via CSS without plugin?
2. Live Links: How can I remove the line from the live links? And format colour?
3. Category Dropdowns, Homepage: Can you have a look at my dropdown set-up which I achieved by linking the categories and advise me whether there is a cleaner way to display the dorpdown sections? At the moment, my set-up leaves the main content page empty ex: “GO! Travel”
4. Post Headlines: How can I make a universal update to the font type (want to change it to cambria also) and colour of my post headlines? Would like that they are all in consistent format without manual colour change updates.
Thank you!

In reply to: [Toujours] Slideshow No Longer AppearingThanks Fotis. Yes, Jetpack self-disabled/disconnected yesterday (don’t understand what would prompt that) which led to all of this. Now I am fighting to set it back up – It either asks me to login with my Google account or WordPress.com site login, and when I attempt to go with google it says “An account with this email address already exists. Please log in using your WordPress.com email and password”. And the wordpress.com window just takes me to my Reader dashboard and the My Sites dashboard says I don’t have a site. Should I just delete plugin and reinstall? Setting up Jetpack again should be so hard? Not sure why it is not finding my account.
