Queries
1: on a mobile phone Android OS the shortcodes are visible.
2:A: Blogspot page : how do I get the template to show a read more, rather than just so a excerpt. I have gone to settings > reading. but haven’t been able to get it right.
2:B: Blogspot Posts : I am wanting to disable the author in the post as it displays Admin.
3: In the portfolio template the excerpt is showing to all the words and you tube urls.

Hi,

1: on a mobile phone Android OS the shortcodes are visible.

Do you mean you can see the shortcode itself, i.e. [accordion] ?

2. Please open the file “functions.php”, go to line 104 and replace this:

function continue_reading_link() 
	{
	return ' <a href="'. esc_url( get_permalink() ) . '"><span class="meta-nav">...</span></a>';
	}

with this:

function continue_reading_link() 
	{
	return ' <br><a href="'. esc_url( get_permalink() ) . '"><span class="meta-nav">Read more</span></a>';
	}

2:B: Please go to WordPress admin -> Appearance -> Theme Options -> General -> Extra CSS Content and add this:

.blogentry_aside .icon-user, .blogentry_aside .meta-author {
 display:none;
}

3: This is why we’ve removed the HTML tags from the content in the portfolio list template, if we dont do that, all images, videos and shortcodes are visible in the overview page. If you want, you can open the file “portfolio-list.php”, go to line 69 and replace this:

$content=strip_tags($content);

with this:

// $content=strip_tags($content);

regarding point 3: In the portfolio list template the excerpt is showing all the text including youtube urls. I meant to say how do I decrease the excerpt_lenght to show less.

Sorry bad communication from me

Hi,

to decrease the portfolio overview text, please replace the

$content=strip_tags($content);

with

$content=get_the_excerpt();

in the file “portfolio-list.php”.

Shortcodes on IOS

You are using the Jetpack Mobile Theme modul, no wonder you can see the shortcodes, because it’s a mobile theme, means it replace the caboom theme with another theme for mobile devices…

[shaneengineermulder]

okay I have deactivated the jetpack mobile theme and now the Nav bar is intertwined in the logo and just looks weird

[7Theme Support]

Yes, I saw it. I think you’ve change to much in the header section and you use too much plugins, because every plugin has it’s on stylesheet files and sometimes it overwrite the Theme stylings. With all these changes in the theme and use plugins it can’t work like the original (100% responsive!).
You can try to go to WordPress admin -> Appearance -> Theme Options -> General -> Extra CSS Content and remove this:

#navleft {
    position: absolute;
    right: 0px;
    top: 50%;
    margin-top: -40px;
}

This could help…

[shaneengineermulder]

that would change the layout on pc’s then, is there maybe not another way? I understand what you are saying

[shaneengineermulder]

I thank you for your time in assisting me with this

[7Theme Support]

Hi,

nearly the same code exist already in the style.css file, so I think you can delete it. The only difference is “margin-top:-27px” instead of “margin-top:-40px”…

[shaneengineermulder]

well that looks a lot better on a Mobile device, Still with Mobile just look at why the nav bar doesn’t compute when a page is clicked/ selected.

[7Theme Support]

I’m not sure if I understand you, the navigation is not working on mobile devices?

[shaneengineermulder]

Yes Keymaster the nav bar is not working on mobile devices, have a look and try and select a page

[7Theme Support]

Hi,

I’m sorry, but you’ve changed so much and use so many plugins, no wonder nothing isnt working. We’ve checked the javascript console, one or more of your plugins prevent all clicks in the mobile menu, that’s why it’s not working. Please take a look at our theme demo, it’s working without any problem.
