20250302-0117. Greetings, chumps! I’ve been tweaking my weblog site to NO satisfaction! So I sighed (NOT really) but forced myself to accept that there are limitations to how I wanted to force the appearance and layout of my weblog site!
So now it’s just two-columns instead of three-columns, which made the meat-and-potatoes Content front and center or in the middle column, which is now mainly on the left column (set at 70 percent).
I just did NOT like how the tablet view squished the left and right columns (which were set at 20 percent each)! So I had no choice but to revert back to two-columns!
For the right column (set at 30 percent), I finally decided to include the Featured Images to these pages, which are mostly cowboy hats of the same shape and size but with different background color, such as black, buff/cream, green, pink and yellow.
The featured images and colors are really NOT “featured images”, but act more like placeholders for tracking how I want to assign parent pages! That’s all!
Below the Feature Image block, I inserted the Excerpt block, which is above the generic description of different types of Template used.
For the Footer, I didn’t like how the clutter was squished in the mobile view. So I had to remove the Blogroll, which doesn’t do anything for me now.
Instead, I opted to include the Social Icons block. I put back my To the Top “jump-page” link and kept the Paragraph blocks for the theme and host Credits and for my Copyrighted Rights.
For the Header, I tried many versions and settled to a Pattern where the Main menu or Navigation block has only the four main Elementor pages: Home, Feature, About and Contact. I put back my To the pit “jump-page” link, too.
I removed the Sidebar Details block; since the Features page already contains all the essential WordPress widgets. I then moved my Author Details block on the top of the Header.
For the Bible template, I moved the Chapter Details block on the top of the Content for the mobile views. The pages using the Bible template displays the “previous” and “next” pages of each bible “book”, the audio file, and the bible “verses”.
The weird part about this Bible template is that I STILL included the Header but it’s below the Content. So that the Header and Footer are close together!
The usual presentation of the three main elements should be Header above, Content in the middle and Footer below. But I wanted the “main menu” of book chapters to appear on the very top and placing the Header in its usual place above would distract from navigating/viewing properly the “bible” on mobile view.
That’s all for now. Time for bed. End 0137 PST. Edited 0138 PST. Edited for spelling and grammar and after I put back the a Header above for the Bible template a few hours 0505 PST.
