Hello – I’d like to add my voice to this.

What is happening is when I ‘select image’ and ‘Use This Image’, the lightbox goes blank and stays displayed, with nothing else happening.

I can click outside of the lightbox and this will display the DTP page as before, but no image has been assigned.

Thanks. Gavin.

Thanks @verysimple.

I agree with keeping things WordPress standard as not doing so has caused me real problems in the past.

I’ve posted in the Gravity Forms support area, linking to this post.

Thanks again.

Hi James – no problems. As I say, it’s not a big issue and the plugin certainly helps make the admin area more clear. Thanks again for your plugin.

Hi Arnan – I’ve just emailed you so look forward to speaking soon. All the best.

That’s fine – look forward to speaking soon.

That’s right. If I were to determine the image as 100px wide it would remain the ‘fixed’ width of 100px.

However, with responsive design, as well as fixed width images, we can set it so that an image is always 100% the width of it containing element.

This is a useful article on how to build a responsive website, but particularly relevant to this discussion, the part on flexible images.

In relation to Ad Blocks, it would be helpful if, as an option, images could become flexible (as they are as Single Ads or Ad Groups) so that there is no chance of either excessive white space or clipping occurring.

I’ve created a little demonstration of what I mean regards the differences between Single, Group and Block. As you can see when you resize the width of the browser, the Single and Group Ads resize to the breaking point, and then revert to their original size. The Block Ads however don’t because we’ve identified a fixed pixel width of the default 125px or, in the case on the demo, 180px.

I’m wondering if there was an option to be able to add a percentage instead of a pixel measurement whether or not this would achieve the desired result of flexibility?

Thanks.

It looks as though images resize for single ads using the Single Ad and Group of Ads widget options, but not using the Block of Ads option.

Hi again Arnan – another question. What if I don’t want ads to be fixed in size, but change in size depending on the screen resolution/device? The problem with fixed width ads is that when a sidebar (which is styled in percentages to allow for flexibility) the ad doesn’t resize to the width of the sidebar.

I can’t figure out how to ensure that the image inside the container responds to the img {max-width:100%} rule.

Thanks.

From my understanding so far, with the decision to add fixed widths to the add in a recent update, this is now making it difficult to make banner ad ‘images’ (as opposed to the HTML5 option above) responsive using the max-width:100%; css rule.

I might be wrong by the way, still getting my head around this ??

Just add another adrotate widget which is set up for that specific page, and then use the dynamic widget plugin to only call it for the specific page and exclude your original adrotate widget. It get’s the job done until you find perhaps a more refined way of doing things, or until adrotate provide that functionality built-in.

Try the the dynamic widgets plugin which I find very good.

Hi @birgire

Here’s the code that I’ve included in a do_shortcode text widget setup:
[youlist vid="N_ZFETatNTY,-4TJBTddP3A,g2axLFDjTgo,qXOrJtn1h2M,0n4E2tAQBVE,ej5L3aJMlPA,A3YxvySQqkk,F5_N86Pblj0" width="288" height="250"]

How would I apply the z-index to the above shortcode?

This can be found at https://www.indylibs.com.

It displays fine but still having problems with the z-index. On a 64bit PC the video float over the speakpipe tab using:
– Chrome 20.0.1132.57 m
– IE9 9.0.8112.16421
– Safari 5.1.7 (7537.57.2)

It works fine in Opera 12.00 (64bit) and Firefox 13.0.1 and 14.0.1.

Thanks. Gavin.

Hi @birgire. It seems to be a problem with Opera. I found that people with 64bit machines were having the same problem with flash player not working properly or at all. The Opera update put the 32bit version of the browser onto my 64bit machine. I’ve remedied that and your plugin now works ??

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Thanks.

Hello @birgire.

Thanks for the update – it’s working fine on Firefox, but not for Chrome, IE9 or Safari. For example, the the speakpipe tab has a z-index: 100000; so the youlist video should definately fall behind this tab, but for some reason it isn’t.

The tab falls in front of the youlist video in Opera, but perhaps that’s because the video isn’t displaying (as per my other support thread).

Thanks. Gavin.

I used the do_shortcode function in functions.php and it works fine.
