  Public Ticket #2854361
Custom Header Image
Closed

  • twoticketsporfavor started the conversation

    Hello!

    I have a question that I couldn't find an answer for while searching for public tickets. Is it possible to have a custom header image that changes randomly every time a page is loaded? Let's say I want to have 4 different headers, and every time I load the website it randomly loads one of the 4. Is it possible?

    Thanks,

    Michael

    Hi,

    Unfortunately, there are no options to display a random image on the header.

    But please send your request in detail, I'll try to create a custom function for you.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.

    Thank you so much for offering to create a custom function but I don't even know the technical terms to explain it. I think it will be too much work for something that not a lot of people are interested in.

    I would like help with another matter, though. 

    I'm interested in using a transparent header. I selected a transparent header style (number 6) but when I insert the image as background image it's not displayed correctly (it's very cropped or it doesn't show). I'm curious to why it didn't work. Maybe I have too many CSS codes related to the header image. 

    I then reverted to style 4 and had to load my new image as a logo, like my previous one. It's working well. I was then able to make my menu transparent, but I want it to be over the image I use for the banner, not above it. I'm sending pictures to make it easier to explain what I'm trying to achieve. 

    Thanks in advance,

    Michael

    Hi,

    Please following the instruction:

    1. Go to Appearance → Customize → Logo & Header → Main Bar & Primary Menu: check to Disable Sticky Main Bar When Scroll Down option,

    2. Navigate to Custom CSS, then copy/paste:

    #navigation {
        position: fixed;
        top: 0;
        left: 0;
        right: 0;
        z-index: 999999;
        background-color: transparent;
    } #navigation.header-4 {
        border-top: 0 !important;
    }

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.

    Hi,

    1. Please replace the previous CSS code with this code:

    .penci-header-wrap {
        position: relative;
    } #navigation {
        position: absolute;
        top: 0;
        left: 0;
        right: 0;
        z-index: 999999;
        background-color: transparent;
    } body .penci-header-wrap #navigation.header-4 {
        border-top: 0 !important;
    }
    2. Please go to Appearance → Widgets, make sure you set Default at Featured Images Type: on Soledad Recent Posts widget.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.

    Hi!

    1. The menu is no longer sticky but the white borders are still there. Sending a picture.

    2. The change in the Penci Widgets didn't change anything. Images are still cropped.

    Regards,

    Michael

    Sorry, forgot to send the image in the previous reply.

    Hi,

    1. Please modify the CSS code:

    body .penci-header-wrap #navigation.header-4 {
        border: 0 !important;
    }

    2. If the settings on the Widgets don't work, please temporarily disable the Images optimization feature on Jetpack settings.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.


  • twoticketsporfavor replied

    1. Fixed. Thanks!

    2. Disabling image optimization on Jetpack didn't work. What is the original ratio that Soledad uses for the images inside widgets? 4:3 or 3:2?

    Hi,

    This is a standard size of Soledad Theme thumbnail:

    • Thumb Small: 263 x 175,
    • Thumb Square: 585 x 585,
    • Thumb Vertical: 263 x 175,
    • Standard Thumbnail: 585 x 390

    All images will be hard crop default by WordPress.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.

    Hi,

    1. Almost all issues are related to the critical CSS. After you've merged the content from stagging site, you need to follow these steps:

    • Clear all your site cache, then temporarily disable it,
    • Run the Critical CSS Tool, regenerate CSS for your site again,
    •  Enable site cache

    2. I've fixed the banner/image spacing.

    Please check.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.
