Blog category bug + a few other bits

[markmuz]

Hey folks, just need a hand with these few bits please.

To view the website enter password L4ur4Wigz3ll

1. blog page: http://www.prettygoodproject.org/blog/

a) I have blog category “testing cafe’s” and I have a live blog article which has this category selected. But it does not seem to display in the category filter at the top of the blog page.

b) Also, there is a strange gap between the blog categories (see attached screen shot).

c) Is there any way of linking to the blog page with a particular filter already set, e.g. if i want to link to just blog posts which have the category “tester cafe’s”

d) On my blog posts, I sometimes have portrait shaped images, which look fine on the all blogs page (http://www.prettygoodproject.org/blog/ ) because I like how they don’t all align. BUT this looks really stupid when pulled through to say the homepage (http://www.prettygoodproject.org/ ) for featured blogs. Is there any way of keeping the portrait format for the blog page but limiting the max height when pulled through to other pages so that they are all aligned. I know they currently all are, but if i were to have the feature image as a portrait image, it would look terrible. Hopefully that makes some sense.

2. On the shop page: http://www.prettygoodproject.org/shop/

There are product categories, but there doesn’t seem to be a filter option to “View all” how do I do this? or d I have to have a category which is “All” and then tick it for all products (seems a bit daft)

3. Contact form: http://www.prettygoodproject.org/get-involved/ (bottom of the page)

I know you guys didn’t make contact form 7 but if you can tell me how to put each tick box item onto a new line that would be super helpful please

4. How do I get the text of “RELATED PRODUCTS” not be camelback style, so not capitalised ie “Related Products”.

5. On the other website I am developing, I have separated my products out into categories for Mens and Womens so I don’t ever want any customers to end up on “…/shop” because it looks stupid because it pulls through both mens and womens. Looking at my google ananlytics stats I can tell that quite a few people are ending up on that page and I’ve not idea how (other than when you complete a payment, you get the option to go to the shop) Is there any way of me putting a redirect on the …/shop so that it always just re-directs to my homepage please?

Thanks for your time

Mark

1a) Did you imported your posts from XML or from a dev site? Please re-test now, I created a new category.

1b) This is caused by the below CSS. Unfortunately, there is not a way around this easily, you could count the li’s using nth-of-type and try to adjust the margins. Assuming you won’t add any more categories.

a.featured-blog-post {
    display: none !important;
}

1c) No, this is not possible currently. You would link to the product category URL.

1d) This is standard for the masonry layout. You would need a developer to modify this further.

2a) Yes, you would need a category for this.

3) This is more of a StackOverflow question. You would use display: block!important; on the class span.wpcf7-list-item

4) Use CSS “Text Transform” to change it. Ref: https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/t/text-transform/

5) You can use one of the many redirection plugins available for this.

Hey, thanks for all your help.

The only one that didn’t really work for me is

4. How do I get the text of “RELATED PRODUCTS” not be camelback style, so not capitalised ie “Related Products”.

To which you replied:

“Use CSS “Text Transform” to change it. Ref: https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/t/text-transform/”

So I’d added this to my custom CSS

.spb-heading {
text-transform: capitalize;
}

…but it didn’t seem to work. I’d like text to always be Capitalized on the “ADD REVIEW” button and throughout the site should be “Add Review” rather than uppercase. Is there a quick way of changing this globally please?

…just fixed this. Added “!important;” to the end of the css. Boom!

Glad you got it sorted.
