It works as expected. I wish I could control it by the size of the exerpt by pixel size so all my boxes were uniform in the portfolio. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/remove-continue-reading-next-to-the-excerpt-in-the-portfolio#post-108829 Sat, 04 May 2013 09:05:56 +0000 Dude 108829@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>The avia_excerpt() won't help in this case because Kriesi uses the standard the_excerpt function. Two possible solutions.</p> <p>1) Use a filter to change the excerpt length - see: <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt#Control_Excerpt_Length_using_Filters" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt#Control_Excerpt_Length_using_Filters</a> (insert the code at the end of functions.php)</p> <p>2) Use the excerpt field on the editor page (can be found underneath the "big" text editor field). This field also allows you to use a different excerpt text which is a good idea if you want to avoid duplicate text content. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/remove-continue-reading-next-to-the-excerpt-in-the-portfolio#post-108689 Fri, 03 May 2013 14:01:46 +0000 ansonkemp 108689@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>adjusting the code to <code>function avia_excerpt($length = 150, $more_text = false, $order = array(&#39;more-tag&#39;,&#39;excerpt&#39;))</code> made no difference to the length of the excerpt at all .

I've recently got "Choices" and I'm keen to reduce the size of the slider ..</p> <p>I've followed these steps and it's not working as I hope. </p> <p>Is there some extra stage that I should be doing. I'm expecting the existing images to resize, is that a mistake?</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jason </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-85063 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 02:55:38 +0000 Nick 85063@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Add Widget Context Plugin and use it in conjunction with Easy Category Management. or you can use <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/frontpage-category-filter/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/frontpage-category-filter/</a> this plugin alone, just add 2 copies of it, and set one copy to show on one page and another to show on a different page, this way in the first copy you can block one set of categories and in another copy you block out another set. </p> <p>In any case get widget context also <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-context/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-context/</a> .. this plugin lets you add logic to any widget .. conditional statements, so that you can put 20 copies of the same widget into a sidebar, and have each copy display only when on a certain page or category, or to children of category, etc.. You can use any conditional tag (its easy, no code just tag) </p> <p><a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags</a> </p> <p>Here is a video on how to use it <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXp7LkN0S9E" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXp7LkN0S9E</a><br /> Watch it, and here is tutorial. Just follow along! <a href="http://www.ostraining.com/blog/wordpress/widget-context/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ostraining.com/blog/wordpress/widget-context/</a></p> <p>Best thing to get your head around something, is to follow a video or step by step and doing it without understanding, and then all of a sudden later start understanding it. At least for me. But i's frustrating and managing stress/frustration is the worst part of learning this stuff.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-85053 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 02:26:28 +0000 siobhan13 85053@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Nick, </p> <p>Thanks a lot for the code and info about CSS, I'll give it a go!</p> <p>Used the code and works fine. Also found two plugins - Easy Category Management and Ultimate category excluder.</p> <p>I've managed to exclude the Support posts from the eBlog page which is great, but what I'm looking to do is hide the Support category from the sidebar widget when on the Blog homepage, and on the different support pages, hide the eBlog category.</p> <p>So on the blog homepage, the eBlog category would be collapsed in the sidebar widget and no support category showing and on the support archive category, the support category would be collapsed in the sidebar widget and the eBlog category hidden.</p> <p>I don't think this is an issue with parent/child categories as they are both parents. </p> <p>To get the collapsible categories, I used Collapsing Categories plugin which has the option to exclude a category which I have done with Uncategorized, but doesn't seem to allow more than one or choose to hide by different archives/pages.</p> <p>I've had a look through the code and can't really get my head around it. The codes I've used in previous suggestions haven't worked either - not sure if it's an issue with placement in the theme.php (I've tried it in a few places) or which the category ID which I've double checked and seem to be correct.</p> <p>Any help would be really appreciated!</p> <p>Thanks, Siobhan </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-84869 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 11:53:22 +0000 Nick 84869@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>You would use this to change the color of the word Support on the link you provided,<br /> <pre><code>#top.archive span.container { color: green; }</code></pre> <p>You should install Google Webdeveloper Tools for Chrome browser, or FireBug for FF/Chrome/Safari, Using them you can easily style the entire page in 15 minutes without knowing css.

Is it possible to use the other parameters in the code instead, e.g. $query = new WP_Query( 'category_name=staff' ); </p> <p>I have a few different categories but two parent categories which I don't want showing at the same time. So when I go to this page <a href="http://etool.net.au/eblog/" rel="nofollow">http://etool.net.au/eblog/</a> I just want the eBlog parent category and child categories showing (Not Support) and on the following links, </p> <p><a href="http://etool.net.au/category/support/" rel="nofollow">http://etool.net.au/category/support/</a><br /> <a href="http://etool.net.au/category/support/features/" rel="nofollow">http://etool.net.au/category/support/features/</a><br /> <a href="http://etool.net.au/category/support/tutorials/" rel="nofollow">http://etool.net.au/category/support/tutorials/</a></p> <p>just the Support parent category and child categories Features, Software Help, Tutorials.</p> <p>Could you advise the code to use with this other parameter using the category slug please?</p> <p>Also, could you advise the CSS to use to get the archive category titles a specific colour rather than black e.g. color: #107670;</p> <p>Thanks, Siobhan </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-84518 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 05:58:28 +0000 Ismael 84518@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Siobhan,</p> <p>Yes, that's the template used for the blog page (Corona). </p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-84515 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 05:39:39 +0000 siobhan13 84515@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Peter, </p> <p>I'm using the template-blog.php for the Corona theme, is that right?</p> <p>Thanks, Siobhan </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-slider-to-widget-area#post-84375 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 13:43:35 +0000 Dude 84375@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey! </p> <p> You can try to find a plugin here: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slider+widget" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slider+widget</a> </p> <p> Regards,<br /> Peter </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-slider-to-widget-area#post-84268 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 17:36:18 +0000 ak-muc 84268@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi, try this code (Content Slider) to a TEXT Widget in your choosen sidebar:</p> <p>[slideshow 3]</p> <p>[slide title="abc"]abc content goes here.[/slide]</p> <p>[slide title="abcd"]abcd content goes here.[/slide]</p> <p>[slide title="abcde"]abcde content goes here.[/slide]</p> <p>[/slideshow] </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-slider-to-widget-area#post-84250 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 16:15:10 +0000 Colourstone 84250@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi.<br /> How can we add the slider to a widget area?<br /> Thanks you! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/hide-a-category-from-blog#post-84228 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 14:32:58 +0000 Dude 84228@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi! </p> <p> Yes, it should work this way.

I have done this successsfully, using the following 2 css codes:</p> <p>.blog-author.minor-meta {<br /> display: none;<br /> }</p> <p>.blog-categories {<br /> display:none;<br /> }</p> <p>However, there still remains a forward slash ("/") which used to divide the category and author names. How do i remove this forward slash that remains?</p> <p>2) Below each new post in the blog, there should be a "read more -&gt;", but mine has dissappeared :( How do i get this back for all posts, so visitors don't have to click the title but can also click "read more" too?</p> <p>Thanks so much!</p> <p>Alex </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/custom-height-in-slideshow#post-79474 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:35:08 +0000 Ismael 79474@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,</p> <p>You need to regenerate thumbnails if you already uploaded some images. :)</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/custom-height-in-slideshow#post-79457 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 19:15:12 +0000 creacards 79457@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thanks Nick for your help. :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/custom-height-in-slideshow#post-79319 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 23:32:12 +0000 Nick 79319@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>If you open functions.php and look on line 68 which looks like<br /> <pre><code>$avia_config[&#39;imgSize&#39;][&#39;featured&#39;] = array(&#39;width&#39;=&gt;990, &#39;height&#39;=&gt;400 ); // images for fullsize pages and fullsize slider</code></pre> <p>You can change the dimension to whatever you want.
