Layout dimensions in layout editor not updating.

Recommended Posts

jheflin

I am trying to adjust the width of my sidebar area using the layout editor - I have adjusted the SB1 to be 240px and the Main Column to be 720px and saved. However, these changes never take and this problem has persisted regardless of custom css in base. In layout editor it even shows the updated dimensions - but when my pages that have sidebars load, the dimensions are pagelines default SB1 330px and Main Column 630px. Test site link This is one of the last things I need to resolve b4 we launch the site so any help at all would be much appreciated.

What are the permissions on the dynamic.css file?

You should also note that you have to drag the bars to resize. It won't save if you simply type in the dimensions.

I am having the same problem. A "better" answer might have been, "Your permissions for dynamic.css found at ??? should be ???". If you can fill in the blanks, that may solve my problem. The settings are recorded for the layout that is set for my default. The settings are NOT recorded for layouts that are not my default but which I might use on certain pages.

Dragging the bars for resizing didn't work for me. The only way I was able to adjust the widths was through dynamic.css. Steven you can find dynamic.css at the following path: wp-content -> themes -> platformpro -> core -> css -> dynamic.css As far as I can tell you just need to have read/write permissions to that folder/file.

I'm having the same problem too. It DID save simply adjusting the dimensions of the layout editor. Now it doesn't save. Can someone explain for a complete idiot how to adjust the dynamic.css?

I have the same problem. There was no css folder on my system, so I made it and put a dynamic css file in it, and changed the permissions to grant everything to anyone. The file is not updated when I change the layout. I have no idea what should be in it in order to hack it myself, and I don't really want to, as that defeats the object somewhat! Please help.

It should be in `wp-content/themes/platformpro/css/dynamic.css` Editing the file itself is pointless as it gets recreated every time you save an option in admin. If the file is not there or not being updated then you have a server permissions problem. Last resort enable 'inline-css' its under misc-settings, this will render the css into your page directly and not try to cache it.
