Also Mohammad I’m using a child theme so where and how do I update
Are you sure this is the correct solution and wont affect other settings like custom CSS, plugins etc..
Thank you Ed, that has solved the issue.
Much appreciated
HelenHi I am having the same problem. Everything was working fine and where you see ‘all’ here I had all my categories showing.
http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/portfolio/
However I just went into the CMS and simply changed the names of the categories and now everything has disappeared and I’m left with ‘all’ rather than the category titles which you can see in this SS

Hi I’ve tried this approach above but I can’t resolve my issue which is simply that I want blog POSTS pages to show sidebars
At the moment they’re full width as you see here http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/how-to-find-a-good-web-designer/
But I want them to show the same sidebars as on the main blog front page http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/news-2/
Please advise
Hi David,
Which page / link have you done this too as I can’t see it working when I try. can you send me the link / screenshot.
I assume therefore I’ll have to go through this process for each of the portfolio items?
I’ll do this once I can see what you mean by the link / ss
Thanks kindly
HelenHi David,
OK so
1. I removed robot chicken image
2. I clicked on your link http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-admin/index.php?action=delcachepage&path=%2Fweb%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D12003%26action%3Dedit&_wpnonce=154d831849 – I assume this removed the cache?
3. Retried and if you go to any page on the portfolio item and click Pinterest button then NOTHING shows as the image to pin. This is weird as ALL portfolio pages have a featured image so it’s not even picking that up…
… try it… http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/?portfolio=catherines-kitchenIs the answer in here somewhere http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-08-at-14.54.02.png
Hi Dave,
2a – resolved, thank you.
3. No it happens all the time…. if I plug in is loaded it works fine and shares images from the page content BUT it overrides the themes Pinterest icon which looks terrible!
-See original screenshot
http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-06-at-14.36.57.png– also if you click here http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/?portfolio=oneline-fair-trade and then click on the Pinterest share button top right you’ll see what I mean.
– I also attached this screen shot http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-08-at-14.54.02.png
can you see where it’s saying it’s loading in the image from//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/?portfolio=oneline-fair-trade&media=http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/robot_chicken_slider1.png&description=Fair+Trade+Association+AU+%26%23038%3B+NZ
Why is this how do I get it to load in the images so people can Pin content from the actual page….
Weird that all the other social share buttons work fine just not Pinterest…
Look forward to your thoughts for solution…
Thank you David…
1a: I found a plug in called code snippet which allows me to edit the function.php without actually going into it, hopefully this will work OK in the future, as I got lost at the bit where you said activate child theme.
2a: The issue is happening on a macbook pro 15″ firefox browser – please advise?
3: The problem with installing a 3rd party Pinterest button (I’ve tried 3 of these options from your link) is that it overrides the Pinterest share button that’s built into the theme and therefore looks out of place. If you look at the screen shot http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-06-at-14.36.57.png
You can see that the built in Pin sharing button uses an image from the theme NOT one of the images actually on the pages content — how can I resolve?Many thanks
Helen***UPDATE Please ignore other replies***
Probably easier if I recap the issues here. I’ve spoken to support but they say you don’t offer premium support so if we can get this resolved via the forum that would be appreciated.
1. Subscribe Form
A: Please talk me through the steps to change the word ‘Subscribe’ to ‘Get in touch’ see image http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-06-at-14.29.39.png

– I’ve added spacers and your custom code Rui but still no joy – this seems to happen a lot with these them I only moved the button up a section! Is it perhaps space that needs adding to the testimonials…3. Pinterest button. http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/?portfolio=moetal
I just want to be able to do Pin buttons on all my images but the default button does this http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/web/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-06-at-14.36.57.pngHow can I get it to offer users a way to pin MY images rather than the default theme images?
Getting there – thank you!
Hi Rul, would that not remove the social media links though. Have a look in firefox the left menu is still showing even though I’ve added the custom CSS to display none…
Also now this is happening on mobile iPhone 5 – the button is overlaying – please advise!

Hello again
2) Please activate your child theme and in the file functions.php you will need to add this this: http://pastie.org/private/j30dhtfgwziodcuylfyla. This code will overwrite the parent theme function to alter the link text.
This scares me!! I am not a developer I’m a designer – I just designed the site and can make changes in the CMS. Can you talk me through this step by step a bit more OR also i don’t know if you guys have an hourly rate but maybe I could leave this one in your capable hands…
I’m just worried if I activate a child theme that it will damage other parts of the site so just let me know the implications…
3. Pinterest button. It’s a bit annoying as all the plugins work ok but they overide your lovely icon on this type of page http://www.onelinestudio.co.uk/?portfolio=moetal
The problem I’m having with this share that’s part of the them is I can’t work out how to change the setting so it allows the user to pick which image they pin. As you can see at the moment it’s selecting some of the themes default images…Hi David,
thanks so much for your help with this. OK so
1. Sorted thank you!
2. I may have found a way around this see the site left hand side subscribe dropdown. I’ve been trying for 2 hours to work out using inspect element which bit of code it is that will allow me to simply change the word ‘subscribe’ to ‘Get in touch’ and make it about 16px in font height – I can’t figure it out…well I can in chrome but then what I paste into custom CSS doesn’t work… can you help?
3. OK will take a look at this now
4. OK I think I’ve sorted this I’m just trying to get my SEO rankings better by using H2 I think rather than me mess the entire sites typography up I’ll use them in the blog posts.
5. Ok thanks that’s a real shame – would you have any advice for the simplest/quickest way to convert all these sliders to revolution sliders or would I basically have to start all over again sizing and uploading the images.
Thanks again
