Hi Shri

I would be grateful if you could let me know the lines of code I will need to change in regards to the size of the testimonials boxes so that the entire testimonial is displayed. I have installed the new theme however there are still problems weith this and the upgraded theme doesn’t solve them unfortunately.

The problem I want to fix is when a testimonial is added it seems to be that only a few lines appear. The testimonials I have vary in length from a sentence to several sentences however none appear in their entirety. As you can see in the main home page it does not look great because the whole testimonial is not shown and you cannot click to read the whole testimonial either.

So what I want to do is either make this so you can click on it and it displays the whole testimonial on the testimonials page or just simply displays the whole testimonial. I also want to adjust the spacing between boxes as again this is not consistent based on the amount of text.

I created a separate testimonials page and dropped in the short code in but still have the same problem in that the whole testimonial not displaying.

I did the upgrade and tried the testimonials template but again this not worked either.

So the only way around this problem in my opinion:

increase the size of the testimonials boxes and the content within them so that all the testimonial is included

adjust the spacing in between boxes so they are consistent no matter how long the testimonial is

Grateful if you could let me know the lines of code I will need to change to make this possible.

I would also ideally like to adjust the amount of text that appears in the Services and Teams (Featured Links) section boxes so at least all box sizes are consistent and same amount of text can be displayed or if you can let me know the word count so that I can redraft things so they fit better as you can see on the website it is only when you click on the box can you actually see the whole text. It certainly would look better in my opinion if the first sentence could appear in it’s entirerity as it would look more professional.

Look forward to your advices on this.

Many thanks.

Hi Shri

Still having problems with the testimonials amendments I want to do despite the theme upgrade. Can you send me your email please so can outline exactly what I need to get done as I don’t really want to post everything on here.

Many thanks.

Thanks for this although having some problems installing the new theme, I have followed the instructions but it is unable to update as it says the theme is already installed. I take it the updated them will need to be manually installed rather than through WordPress?

Just following up again on the updates as want to get the testimonials part of the site sorted out.

hi Shri

Any progress on the updated theme which displays the entire testimonials? I also set up a new page as a test to show all the testimonials and have the same problem on there, is it to set to a maximum word count and any way to change this?

Hi Shri

The website is www.royrobertsmedium.co.uk – I managed to fix some of the problems I was having before but now need to sort out a few more little things.

As you will see on the front page the testimonials are not displaying completely and there seems to be no way to make these so you can click on them to read the whole testimonial. As a workaround to this is there anyway I can make the boxes bigger so it displays the entire testimononial? Also I want to make the boxes a bit more tidy so it looks consistent as you can see if I have a long testimonial it throws the layout out.

Look forward to your advices on this. Thanks.

I managed to get the main page displaying with all the sections but I want to make sure this page is added to the menu, only problem is cannot seem to add it to the menu as it is not appearing as a page so how do I get round this problem as I want a button called home in my menu which links to this page?

Also I wanted to know if I can make the boxes Featured Image boxes a different size as need the images to be Portrait rather than square for the blog posts.

Also with the testimonials I want to change the size of the box on there too or maybe even take out the box for an image of the person doing the testimonial.

Also for your reference if you have any text in italics in any of the sections it changes the headings from what they were before to Italics.

Grateful for your advices on this.

Thanks I have tried this and still no luck getting the standard sections to display.

Also still having problems showing the social media icons. I have dropped in the short code where I want them to appear but only the short code text appears. The short code does not seem to want to work in a widget area.

I also ended up updating the default template as could not get access to the widget elements being shown on there to configure them.

Any further advice on getting this to work correctly appreciated.
