    I’d ad a screenshot but the link’s not working.

    Please see solutioncells.org

    The title text hangs over the background image on the left side of the screen. I need it on the right side in desktop view (tablet and mobil the way it is is fine.)

    I would also like to move the image down some.

    Ideally I’d like to make the entire home page a vector graphic – but your system doesn’t seem to allow that. Is there a way I can upload one?

    Hello Nik,

    Thank you for contacting for help customizing your site. Unfortunately, WordPress does not allow vector images (.svg) by default. I recommend using the “Position” option in the Site Title & Logo Customizer since it allows you to adjust the location of the title. The amount you can adjust it depends on the specific theme you have chosen.

    If you want to make changes other than what is included in the customizer you can use the Custom CSS Editor. This will primarily be used by a developer or designer, as it assumes familiarity with HTML, CSS, PHP, etc.

    We received all of your questions and updates but you will not be able to see them until they have been moderated and approved. This is to reduce the amount of spam we receive.

    Thank you,

    John-Paul

    Hi

    The position option moves the title about 20 px.

    I have tried everything inside BG and WP I can find.

    So basically your Box or Grid (or whatever) design forces all elements on the home page to be in the upper left hand 3rd of a page. Why is that? I can’t imagine a design actually wanting that.

    I am guessing I can force placement on the home page by using a full page size jpg. That will make a mess for small screens. Am I able to use different graphics for the 3 options you allow?

    If I wanted to mess with CSS I would design a page myself without the sometimes truly idiotic restriction forced by BG.

    I understand your need to moderate. I don’t think I asked about it so I’m wondering why you’re mentioning it. But since you brought it up, it would be nice to have get a solution to my problem in less than day. This is a business site I had hoped BG would help me make fast. No I must wonder if I choose another “Inspiration” if I’ll loose everything I’ve invested in this?

    I had hoped to have a presentable site structure up in a couple hours so i could focus on content. So far I’ve put in about 2 days and I have no end in sight.

    Once again a great argument for: if it’s at all important, pay a pro to do it. Every template or BG type option I’ve tried has cost me so much time and frustration I would have saved money and been much happier.

    Anyway – any help

    Hi Nik,

    “So basically your Box or Grid (or whatever) design forces all elements on the home page to be in the upper left-hand 3rd of a page. Why is that? I can’t imagine a design actually wanting that.”

    To answer your question about the design issues, please remember that these sites are responsively designed. This means that site images and text placement are created so that when there is a variance in the display screen, the elements on the website will still appear correctly.  This means that ALL of the elements need to be synchronous – this means color, placement, and size.  The Inspirations/themes/fonts/colors provided in BoldGrid were put together to provide an immediate website solution without having to modify the website formatting.

    I can understand your frustration with the placement of the graphic because you have a custom need for the placement, but the restrictions are only there because of the requirements of the responsive design.  I hope this helps to clearly explain it.  I have sent your request to one of the BoldGrid designers to see if they can provide additional assistance.  However, keep in mind that making that change would affect the design and may affect the display of the site when it is viewed on a different device. If they are able to provide assistance for your issue, then you should see another response in this chain.

    Kindest regards,

    Arnel C.

    Helllo Nik,

    The designer wrote his reply to me, instead of directly to you, so I have placed his response below:

     


    @media
    (min-width: 992px) {
    h2 {
    text-align: right;
    }
    }

    Please add the above code to the Customizer.
    The media query above takes all h2 elements and aligns them to the right on screen sizes that are 992px wide and up.  So mission, opportunity, solution, and key benefits will shift to the right but that also effects the other h2’s on the page.  You should be able to add custom classes to the titles you want to be shifted. Then we can target those elements specifically so ‘continuous information farming’ and ‘data directed development’ remain center aligned. The custom classes can be added with the advanced controls available in the Customization section of the editor.
