Hello. Your navigation works for me (Firefox and Chrome)

How funny. Literally after I posted that I had a brainwave.
Check out my site again >> https://www.hughjan.us/

I’ve added a ‘where is this’ box above the first panel, over the featured image. This isn’t ideal as this text is directly within the PHP file, but it’s a start.

The file is in:
twentyseventeen-child / template-parts / header / site-branding.php

Sorry not to add a solution but I’m looking to be able to do this too.
On the default top image there is the site title & logo on the left. There must be a way to add a div to this area too.

Also, as the first panel scrolls up, there is a graduation that seems to be attached to the top of the panel. I think if i could discover where this is, I could add something.
I’ll keep looking but any help gratefully received.

Here’s my clunky dev site. I’m just trying to get everything where I want it. The content isn’t much to do with the final site.

What I’m actually trying to do is replicate the text ‘slab’ on the panel below over the featured image above. I intend to move the one on the panel to the left and have the featured image one on right, so they are offset as they scroll.

I’m not sure if this is what you mean but I’ve moved the header bar / nav to the top of the screen and is now fixed, so the rest of the website scrolls under it.

Here’s the css I used:

.navigation-top {
position: fixed;
z-depth:9999;
top: 0;
width:100%;
background: #ffffff;
height:150px;
}

The ‘fixed’ takes it out of the flow of the rest of the design.
‘Z-depth’ controls the scroll underneath
‘top’ sets it, well, to the top
width makes sure the whole bar is full width and responsive
height & color can be adjusted to suit.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the reply, Paul.
I appreciate your attention. I’ll give it a go & report back when I can.

Cheers

Installed the update & it works perfectly. Thanks very much : )

Website back up now : )

Thanks very much for this. I look forward to checking it out.
I’ll let you know how it goes.

Also, FYI, your website seems to be down at the moment.

Cheers

OK. I’ve worked out the cropping / resizing issue.
It was my ignorance of php code in my child functions.php file.

I had this as my code:

<?php

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
        array('parent-style')
    );

	/*
	 * This theme uses a custom image size for featured images, displayed on
	 * "standard" posts and pages.
	 */

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
	set_post_thumbnail_size( 600, 600 );
}

However, I had accidentally placed the last two lines, which control the cropping & size, outside of the last, closing {braces}
Once moved within the last }, my function was called. Hooray : )

Just for reference, this is the TwentyThirteen default at around line 104 of the main functions.php
set_post_thumbnail_size( 604, 270, true );

604 is the width, 207 is the height & true is the cropping
So, I changed it to this in my twentythirteen-child theme functions.php

set_post_thumbnail_size( 600, 600 );

The 600 x 600 with the ‘true’ & preceding comma deleted, doesn’t crop & resizes to max 600px on the longest side – height for portrait & width for landscape.

Then, the other really important thing is to regenerate your thumbnails. I used this Regenerate Thumbnails plugin.
What this does is create new thumbnails with the new functions.php sizes above. If you don’t do this, you’ll see no change.

I hope this helps someone.

Just need to work out how to link to full size image now but I’ll start a new thread

Hi Paul
No problem. I wasn’t really looking for you to spend time fixing it. Just thought I’d mention it.
Having two sheets; one for existing & another for new isn’t really a problem. I just thought I might have been missing something.

Cheers

Solved (although not sure how / why?)
I deactivated jetpack, reactivated, reconnected to WP.com, re-enabled ‘post by email’ which generated a new email address.
Now, with this new email address, it works.
It was odd that the old email sent the post but just didn’t include /redirect (or stripped out) the images / attachments.

Anyway. I’m relived it’s sorted … by me ; )
Cheers

Hi Jeremy
Thanks very much for the reply. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Unfortunaltey, this didn’t help. Upload folder & sub folders were already set to 0755 (I tried changing to 0744 but this broke the image that were there)
All files are set to 0644

I have another install of wordpress on a different server where the permissions are set the same as this and Post by email images work.

Is there anything else I can try – set or change settings?

Thanks in advance

I only mention this because of your comment:

How the heck do I install a second site on WordPress

Which seems to imply that you maybe ‘add’ to WordPress. Sorry if this isn’t what you meant.
Wordpress is the database driven software that generates your site.
Two sites = two installs of wordpress (this is over simplistic but hopefully helps)

So, just to clarify for you; you need to install another copy of WordPress with it’s own database.
This is the easiest thing to do.
Two different domains / websites = two installs of WordPress.

You can do it with one install but it’s much easier this way for you.
As mentioned, 1&1 are very good & should be able to help you.
If not, come back here.

Hey, Vark

Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. I appreciate it.
My client wants just the 1 item with the updated price depending on the number of people.
I’ve suggested variation dropdowns but the numbers could be from 4 to 500 so it would be a huge list and not ideal.

I’m no php’er so not 100% sure what your alternative actually means but it hopefully shows that it is fundamentally possible.

Thanks again for your reply.

Don’t hold your breath for any official support from GetShopped; here or premium.

Your two links are the same and all seems fine. Where’s the error?
