Hi Andrew, thanks for that the original marin rem is below, it doesn’t exactly equate with what was said in the article. It looks ok in browsers (haven’t tried IE yet though), thanks, Earl

.widget-area {
margin: 24px 0 0;
margin: 1.714285714rem 0 0;
}

sorted with the following code:

-webkit-hyphens: none;
-moz-hyphens: none;
hyphens: none;

Hi alchymyth, my friend who I’m doing a site for now just said he only wants one column, so info not required. Thanks very much for offer of help though, Earl

I’m a code ‘tweaker’, a newbie with a brain, but not much time on his hands, it’s a one off job (my first), so I think I may try another route (i.e. a pay for a plugin), but sincere thanks for your help, Earl

HI John, thanks for that, I can see what you’re saying, but a lot of hard work for me (I do this in what little spare time I have), Thanks very much for getting back to me Earl

Hi John, thanks for that, I was looking for a button that when clicked opens a dialog box on the page (much like a small over/lightbox) and inside the box is telephone number, and a mailto: link), so it’s not really a contact form, just an overlay/text box, triggered by button click, does that make sense?, Earl
– there’s one on this page – https://surfacedeals.co.uk/commercial/railings/ – but because the plugin doesn’t work in 3.5.1 the dialog box automatically opens on page load (the author has gone awol)

HI, thanks very much for that, challenge 1 sorted, regards Earl ??

I have also added the full css code in the custom css box (class .wpui-custom), and added the shortcode [tabs style=”wpui-custom”] [tab title=”Tab name”] Tab content [/tab] [/tabs] , but the formatting doesn’t work, many thanks for any help Earl

(am now working on this page – https://surfacedeals.co.uk/shortcodes-ultimate-test/
to get the same themeroller look as this page

I’ve added a full custom css file in the custom css box of the settings – .wpui-custom – and added the shortcode [tabs style=”wpui-custom”] [tab title=”Tab name”] Tab content [/tab] [/tabs] , but the formatting doesn’t work, many thanks for any help Earl

Hi, I’ve found the box in the shortode options to add css code, and have found where to add the class on the shortcode editor. But I haven’t found where to define a custom.css url – am I looking in the right place?

Clutching at straws I uploaded a zipped file custom.css file as extra-presets file, but when use the preset search in the shortcode editor there are no results, any help on this much appreciated,

Thanks Earl

Hi thanks, I can see the shortcodes editor now, but won’t close this thread until I’ve sorted the custom css, thanks Earl

Hi, I can’t find the short codes options, is that in the slick panel skin? (i.e paid – I have the free version) Thanks, Earl

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the help, I think I may have found an alternate tab plugin, best wishes,

Earl

Hi Paul,

Thanks for that. Yes I really need tabs, so I’ll either have to search for another WP plugin, or do a non WP site. I think using an older plugin may cause future problems,

Thanks very much for your help,

Earl

Hi Pothi Kalimuthu, thanks very much for your advice, a friend said the same thing about security, will try and find an alternate jquery plugin for creating tabs. Yes, even though the site will be a niche/low hits site it might be attacked as the hacks are automated. Thanks again Gareth
