it’s not the code that’s the problem. the code works, which I proved by adding it to style.css. however, that’s not where custom css should go since that file will be over-written when the theme is updated. so I use the ‘custom css’ area of the theme options. but that’s what is converting the > symbol to its ‘code’ version which is & g t ; and which then isn’t working on the front end of the site.
I can’t type the code version without the spaces because this forum’s back end will convert it to a > symbol as we saw in my OP.
So I need to know two things: why is the theme converting the > to its code version, and where can I enter custom CSS manually that will not get over-written when the theme gets updated? Also, are you an admin or just a helpful user?
sorry, I just saw what happened when my post went through. my original problem is that the > symbol gets converted to its ‘code’ version which is & g t ; (without the spaces in between). when I posted my question, each time I wrote the code version it got converted to the > symbol. sorry for the confusion.
I’ll second the need for this option in an update. It’s really unfortunate that even ‘phone number’ isn’t included–there should be an easy contact form editor in the theme options.
you display a message about installing required plugins after evolve is activated. why can’t that message instead state that all current plugins are about to be deactivated and allow the user to first make a note of what plugins are currently active?
if I don’t go to the recently active tab immediately after installing evolve, and instead re-enable one of the plugins I know I need, then that ends up being the only plugin listed on the recently active tab. there’s no ‘history’ on the recently active tab. I really like evolve but there must be a better way for the theme to see what plugins are built in within the theme instead of deactivating all plugins at once. the biggest issue here is that I had tested 4 different maintenance landing page plugins, so while the site is being built the visitors will see an ‘under construction’ page. I ultimately used one of them. so during the time I had to test and enable and disable each of the maintenance plugins I have installed, the site was showing the actual content (which isn’t ready to go live yet) rather than the maint. page.
BLEW MY MIND!! absolutely perfect, exactly what I needed. thank you!
(for anyone who looks this up, there are additional options which you can target:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1199px){
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px){
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 479px){
}
basically, you figure out what you want each screen size to show and then insert that CSS into the proper area above. you nest the {{}} statements.
ah I’m very sorry, I have the old theme present for non-logged in viewers. I will email you a login id and pw.
where do I find my envato Username, Envato API Key, and Purchase code? I want to enable support and updates, unless that’s not necessary and will come with updates to Evolve. please advise.
