July 24, 2015 at 7:50 am in reply to: AgencyPro — how to swap featured images on mouseover/hover #160300mpet29Member
anyone know?
September 3, 2014 at 9:07 am in reply to: Featured Post Content Limit Formatting – Is it Possible? #122585mpet29MemberI have this exact same question. PP, how did you resolve it?
mpet29MemberFor example, this page: http://www.techgraphs.com/weekend-futbol-viewing/ (if it asks for password, "fangraphs")
At the moment I have not included the caption feature because it would strip away the angled PNG overlay on the featured image.
mpet29MemberThanks so much. That works wonderfully. The only thing is that it then breaks the overlay image I have on top of the featured image, as shown in the CSS below. What would I have to change to get that and the caption to both appear? Thanks again.
article.entry > header.entry-header > a:before{ background: url("/uploads/featured_overlay.png") repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); bottom: 0; content: " "; display: block; left: 0; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; z-index: 99; } article.entry > header.entry-header > a { display: block; overflow: hidden; position: relative; }
mpet29Memberperfect!
I can't thank you (both!) enough for your help. Really so appreciated.
mpet29Memberthanks so much. It's close, but not quite in the right spot. I outlined it in red here: http://www.fangraphs.com/techgraphs/baseball-post/
mpet29MemberActually if you don't mind: do you know how I can make it do that for the featured posts on the single post pages too? Markup seems similar but clearly it's not..
mpet29Membertony!
You are a life saver. That worked perfect. Psuedo classes are exactly what I had been trying to go with -- I've used them several times elsewhere -- but the issue I was having was that I had been trying to focus on the picture with img, and you of course can't attach a ::before to image. I hadn't thought of targeting it in this way.
Thanks so much.
mpet29MemberI'm using stock base Genesis. I made a child theme to make sure that my changes would survive updates, but I'm not using any third party theme.

password: fangraphsWhat I'm attempting to do is put an image overlaid on top of the baseball image that is the featured image of the first post. On the home page, it will be only the first post, but on single pages, they all show their featured image and should have the overlay.
thank you!
mpet29MemberThanks Sridhar, but while that might work on my home page, I am also trying to achieve the same effect on the single post pages, which also have the featured images appearing. I just can't quite figure out how to add a wrapper div that sits right on top of the featured image.
mpet29MemberThanks! That's helpful. My only confusion is that according to this: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/structural-wraps/
the wraps can be applied to these areas:
'header',
'nav',
'subnav',
'site-inner',
'footer-widgets',
'footer'How would i make it attach only to the featured image and not all of the 'site-inner'?
mpet29MemberA+. That did it. Thanks so much.
mpet29MemberActually one more question -- how do I lose the em-dash before the comment count?
mpet29MemberThanks so much to you both. Rfmeier, it was actually ".entry-comments-link" rather than ".comment-count" but definitely sent me in the right direction.
mpet29MemberSure -- it's http://www.thehardballtimes.com
mpet29MemberI needed to do the same thing on a previous site, and also ran into your issue. What I did to get around it was to make that category a custom post type, which kept it out of the main feed, and then I had a widget that was set to ONLY show that post type.
April 20, 2014 at 6:25 pm in reply to: Sidebar shows above content at smaller responsive sizes #101555mpet29MemberHi -- I have not. Any ideas?
February 14, 2014 at 7:47 am in reply to: Genesis Featured Post Widget – How to Exclude 1 Category? #90276mpet29Member@philby -- there ended up not being a good way to do this, so I created a Custom Post Type instead.
mpet29Memberhi, any suggestions here? It's fine if the "featured" part isn't included and only the bottom three are.
January 20, 2014 at 12:59 pm in reply to: Genesis Featured Post Widget – How to Exclude 1 Category? #86130mpet29MemberExactly what I came here to ask. Is there a way to do it without the plugin? It hasn't been updated in two years and appears to be poorly supported.
