Hello, I have two questions regarding the customization of some widgets:

1 - I want to replaec the top search widget with the social media icons. How can I go about this? THe clsoest I was able to do was to put the social media widget into the search positon but I still see the magnifying glass image.

2 - For the Bottom widgets I position, I would like the GK Title overlay widget to point to a specific page with the featured image. How can I achieve that?

Hi,

1. You have to remove search widget from search position, and put the social media widget instead (in this case if you still see magnifying glass, please provide me URL to your website - here or via PM)

2. You can point to specific post (not page). In GK Title Overlay widget configuration set "Post slugs" as a data source and enter your specific post slug (visible during post editing, if you can't see it change screen options)

1. My site is not external as of now, but here is a screenshot attached:

2. It works by placing content from page to post. Thanks.

I have another question. I am trying to find where in the extensions.css that I can change the placement of the text and button inside GK Image show. I would like it to be lower, practically in the left corner instead of in the middle.

1. Try to edit css/template.css file (around line 488) and change line
Code: Select all
#gk-search:before {
to
Code: Select all
#gk-search .searchform:before {   


Placement of the text and button inside GK Image show you can change directly in widget configuration, check Text block padding (CSS): and Text block width options.

It works (although I can't put the change in override.css it seems).

Thanks.

You don't have to put this fix into override.css file, because it will be included in the nearest theme update.. (in template.css)
