Hi, I purchased this slider

Please Login or Register to see this Hidden Content

and it is not behaving as it should. My layout is on a responsive width set on max.Had the plugin developer have a look and he is asking me "Please check if your theme has some definitions for img. I could not find the theme main .css file" . Not sure what to do. Just started with pagelines dev edition couple days ago.

Thanks any help would be appreciated.

Hi there, yes we will have css tied to the img tag at various points throughout the site. As we're 100% Less now there's no static css file. The css for each section is split and divided amongst each item and then compiled when the site loads. You can view the files separately one by one or view the compiled css by viewing the source code through your browser when viewing online.

Thanks James. Just looking for the custom css to allow the slider to fill 100% of the viewport.

You can figure out the CSS selector by using Firebug for Firefox or Chrome's Inspection tools.

I other words figure it out myself?

Hi there, from what I can see there's additional padding around a number of areas which the slider is nestled inside. If you remove that using css it will effect the entire site layout. Plus you'd probably then have to apply css to the slider container and each slide to get that to enlarge to fill the new frame. It's going to be tricky to do with css alone, and I doubt would act responsively afterwards.

However, Nick has released a bunch of new sections/plugins today and one of them is a full width responsive slider. I've posted a link below, check it out and see if it could work for your project.

If you have a look at the slider plugin in the link at the beginning of this topic I am trying to make work has a ken burns effect. The slider you recommend does.
Would I not be able to add a content box in the active section and apply a class in the Content Box Class
Applies this class to the content box for individual styling in the pagelines meta settings that would allow the slider to span the entire viewport. This would only effect the content box not the entire site. I just need the container to be 100%

Part of the reason I bought pagelines was to make design easier. If I can't even put in a full width slider, which is pretty standard on most wordpress templates into pagelines something is definitely wrong and I will be asking for my 197 dollars back.

Add the following should remove padding from the content area which is where you slider is located.

Also, PageLines Framework is extremely easy to use. But what you're trying to achieve is adding a third party plugin to your theme.

How did you add the Slider to your theme ?

[miketaylorphoto]

Danny, thanks thats exactly what I was asking for.. I added the slider with a shortcode to the page. Would it be better to put in a content box?

[beardedavenger]

You can absolutely put any plugin you buy into PageLines.

It's just like buying a new seat for your Ferrari. Say you buy a seat, but the only seat thats available is from a 1974 VW Bug. Of course the seat from the VW BUG will fit, but it's going to require a bit of extra elbow grease to work.

PageLines Sections, especially the ones in the store, have a lot of magical awesome sauce that auto-style them to work with the framework, and have options that tie directly into the framework and the API.

So while you can definitely put anything you want into PageLines, if you want a seamless experience, stick to the extensions on the PageLines Store.

Hope this helps.

Danny, the plugin developer is saying there are some definitions for img that are causing some issues. If I put this slider into a contnt box can I turn off the img definitions just for that box and leave the globals alone?

[miketaylorphoto]

here is what the developer says"
The theme you are using is forcing all the images to scale. Please contact the theme builder and ask them if they have a solution for this. I didn’t find any other solution. All I tried was ignored by the theme.
You can also change the theme and show them that the product works correctly."

Mike,

I just looked at that third party plugin. To be very clear and specific, we do not provide support for third party products. In point of fact, we don't even support third party items sold in our own store.

That said, one of our developers just came out with a full width slider, which should soon be available in our store. I'm not saying this to make a sale, but to give you an option that's assured to work with our other products.

I can't find any reason that PL would affect that slider unless there's a conflict of jQuery or javascript. Since we're using nothing outside the scope of WP, it's possible that any conflict comes from that plugin being out of date. I can't see a recent date for it. When was it updated last?

The solution was

.ken_img {

max-width:none !important;

max-height:none !important;

min-width:none !important;

min-height:none !important;

}
