the front page hover/mouse-over box Few more questions

Hello,

1) In v.1.5.0 it will be possible to select slide direction or opacity/scale effect – the beta version is available here: https://github.com/GavickPro/Portfolio-Free-WordPress-Theme

2) it needs a custom CSS code changes and it is beyond of our technical support

3) You can change the dimensions in the Theme Customizer under Advanced settings

4) You can increase amount of posts visible at homepage in the Theme Customizer or under WordPress Reading section

Hi Gavick,

I noticed this contributor successfully changed opacity of front page solid white slider box: https://www.matter-photography.com/

Like Maralline and Matter photography, I want to change opacity of front page white slider. I installed your beta:

Where does new beta version provide for opacity change to white slider box? I don’t see it under customization.
Thanks,

Theme Customizer -> Effects -> Post preview animation type -> Opacity

Thank you for your answer, and for creating this great theme.

I selected an individual post to get to the Post preview animation type > opacity option, but choosing the opacity option here does not change the opacity of the slider. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks again,
NB

Sorry, now I see what you need – please change in this line: https://github.com/GavickPro/Portfolio-Free-WordPress-Theme/blob/master/style.css#L1830 the #fff value to the rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.75) value.

Hi Garrick,
i really appreciate your response. Unfortunately, I’m not getting a transparency effect on the slider, it’s still solid white. I understand the logic, that rgba should change the alpha. I inserted the line into my child theme css via the dashboard, and when that didn’t work, I edited the main css directly. Still no change. Don’t know why.
This is how my child theme css reads now:

/*
Theme Name: GK Portfolio Child
Template: gk-portfolio
Author: Child Theme Configurator
Version: 1.0.1434805879
Updated: 2015-06-20 13:11:19
*/

@charset “UTF-8”;

#content .article-helper.notloaded {
background: #rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.75) url(‘images/loader.gif’) no-repeat center center;
}

Any clues as to what might be the problem?
Thanks again, love your theme.

My mistake – I’ve wrongly selected line on my iPad – sorry for that – you should edit background for the post-preview element:

.post-preview {
	background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.75);
}

Hi again,

The beta version seems to be not working correctly when with the pictures, I get only white boxes.

Is there a way to stop the animation?

SUCCESS!! Thank you, Gavick!

So in summary, I changed the opacity of the white slider in my child theme css by going to Dashboard->Appearance->Editor->

and adding this line (.75 in this instance = 75% of the color white) LOVELY!!:

.post-preview {
background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.75);
}

@maralline – are you using v.1.5.1? It fixes this kind of issue founded in v.1.5.0
