Hi,

Because it's not a button - it's only and icon. It's faster to type search query and then hit "enter" instead of clicking the icon.

ok. maybe it's an option to remove the icon and instead have an "hit enter" text. People are used to click on the icon

Add this code into override.css file to get the default search button:

Code: Select all
#gk-search:after {
   display: none;
}

#gk-search #searchsubmit {
   display: inline-block;
   float: right;
   height: 54px;
   margin:0
}

#gk-search #s {
   width: 70%;
   float: left;
}

Hi,

Thank you!
Regarding your issues, I can see "REcent" title on the right, but can't see this title on the left, did you disable it?
It's not possible to exclude categories form latest posts, but you can use categories as a data source, then select only these categories which you want to display and use order by "date" option.

i put the title on the left again so you can see it's not aligned correct

regarding the recent post widget....there is no possibility to select categories.....only date and amount of posts to show

Try this code:

Code: Select all
#gk-sidebar-left {
padding: 24px
}

It gives padding for the whole left sidebar, but i think it looks better now.

Regarding the news show pro, did you change "data source" option? Please check the attachment.

regarding recent posts......for the recent post widget i do not use the news show pro widget. i use another widget but i now see its the standard wordpress widget. so leave this one.

thanks

Hi,

It's becacue your website size is 4,8 MB - the default News2 theme size:http://demo.gavick.com/wordpress/news2/
is 1.3MB. Maybe you should decrease amount of posts displayed on the homepage (in sidebars and main area), and try to use some cache plugins, please check this similar thread:

Loading time of the demo website is around 2,3 sec so it's not slow. Of course if you've used default simple blog themes, website was load faster, but in News2 there's a lot of widgets with news, images and other usefeul informations. Try to compare News2 with another advanced news themes.
