I'm trying to adjust my chiclet's on my website using media queries so when someone's viewing the site on mobile, they'll become smaller. But the only way I seem to be able to change its size is in the HTML portion of the site with this portion of the code:
"fa fa-twitter fa-4x icon-3d">
But I'm not sure how to make it so it's only changed in size due to a certain screen size.
If anyone has any idea how to do this I would love to know. Thanks.
Here's a link to my site if it helps: https://www.tamaricampbell.com/Desultorycontactpage.html

Shopify: Product pictures on our collection pages keep changing sizes
Three gurus have been unable to help with a problem our nonprofit store is having. We would be forever grateful if you can.
Pictures on our collection pages keep changing sizes.
We have this problem on Chrome, Safari, and IE. I am on a PC. A colleague here who had never been on the site also had the same problem on multiple browsers on a PC. I spoke with a guru today, who was on a Mac, and he had the same experience. Yes, I refreshed my cache, and that did not help (as we recognized when people who had never been on the site had the same problem).
We are using a modified version of the Supply theme. I cannot imagine any edits to the theme causing this problem.
Please see this collection page of our store, which is in development:
https://gfh2.myshopify.com/collections/defenders-of-wildlife
(Yes, I know there is no home page. Long story)
Of course, the product pictures should all be the same width. But they are not, and they change from time to time and between browsers.
Sometimes all the pictures are very small, such as you see in this screen grab:
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_1.PNG?6100116406257966738
Sometimes just a few of the pictures appear at the very small size, such as you see in this screen grab:
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_7.PNG?6100116406257966738
If you click to the product pages, the pictures are all the correct size there.
Sometimes some of the pictures appear somewhat smaller than they should (in the range of 70% to 90%, and at least three such smaller sizes, such as you see here:
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_6.PNG?6100116406257966738
Sometimes, if I click a product image on the collection page to go to the product, and then click the Back button to return to the collection page, and do that several times, then the image on the collection page appears at the correct size or at the 70% or 85% size. One time this evening it took three round-trips to do that. Another time it took seven round-trips.
The problem also happens with other collections, such as [Stack Overflow limites how many links I can provide, so just change the collection link provided above to
/first-book
When I first loaded that page, just now, all the pics were small. Please see
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_11.PNG?16317572828225077891
I clicked the first one to go to the product page, then Back to the collection page, and made three round trips, and then that one image appeared at the correct size on the collection page. Please see
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_10.PNG?16317572828225077891
I looked at another browser (actions above were in Chrome; I looked at IE), and all the pics there remained small. Refreshing the page 10 times did not help.
Went back to Chrome. Clicked the second picture and clicked back, several round trips. Then the pic on the collection page got larger, but the first pic reverted to small.
Thank you very much!
Shopify serves images to your pages, by resizing the image file on the server. The intention is to improve page load times, while insuring correct styling for various screen sizes and layouts. Less image files to produce, as well.
To do this, the Shopify server will need more info than just the file name, but the size information as well.
It uses an {image url filter} to include the size data with the image file name.
This is one of your image urls.
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2326/7959/files/small_pics_1.PNG?6100116406257966738
The following is an example of an image url that includes the image size. Note the '720x720' between the image name (boat-shoes) and the image format (.jpeg).
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1183/1048/products/boat-shoes_720x720.jpeg?v=1459175177
The help section for image url filters states: 'If you don't include an image size, the filter returns a small (100x100) image.' This may explain your issue. Here is the URL of the help section I've referenced.
https://help.shopify.com/en/themes/liquid/filters/url-filters#size-parameters
(If you're used to graphically sizing an image, and then seeing the image at that size on the page, then this would be understandably counter intuitive.)
There are other possibilities. I would need to see the theme code for a more definitive answer. Contact me if I can help.
Im struggling with a thought here. Let's say a user has his own CMS where he can fill the content for our app. One of his options is to create a view by uploading images and typing text. Well keep it very simple and imagine he only uploads a image (320 x 20) and some text. So an image on top and some textlines below.
What would be the best way to let my app know of this layout and download the contents? I was thinking of a downloadable XML file which defines the layout but don't really know how to implement this or if its even the best way.
Oh and the content and layout must be downloadable for offline use too.
Another option what I was thinking of is showing the layout in a webview but I can't figure out how to download the mobile website for offline use.
A push in the right direction would be appreciated!
We use a custom XML and it is working good. All texts inside 'label tags' are in XHTML
remember to:
be specific when defining the xml to save some effort
write a limiting XSD! So nothing 'surprising' creeps into the xml
remember not include everything in ONE xml file as that would get rather large rather quickly. Choose a scheme for portioning the XML
A little background info is that my team and I developed a website for a Real Estate Agency and I've been assigned the task of setting the image of the currently selected property into facebook's sharing feature.
The webpage for the property is dynamic as there are several listings, so what I've done is select the first image that is loaded on the page and set it to the og:image meta tag.
Now let's say I copy the URL and post it on Facebook, it'll show the correct thumbnail, HOWEVER, it'll also show multiple thumbnails from other listings.
All images on the website are over 200 x 200px and are within an aspect ratio of 3:1.
My question is, how do I tell Facebook to only take my initial image and not grab others while it's as it.
Is there perhaps a SelectSingleImage property that I can apply?
I've already spent more time searching for the answer to this issue than I would have liked, so thanks for any help provided, it's much appreciated.
One method I use sometimes is to recognize Facebook's server and simply provide it with different data. This way you can actually only have one image on the page (as far as Facebook knows).
I don't know anything about vb.net, but here is a simple code sample in PHP. All it does is perform a regular expression on the user agent of the request to match it against the string "facebook".
$isFacebook = false;
if(preg_match("/facebook/",strtolower($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]))) {
$isFacebook = true;
}
Facebook may very well change their user agent signature one day, but for now, I'm pretty sure you'll be safe but keep synced with the Developers Blog and the Roadmap.
It seems that Facebook saved those images in cache for some bizarre reason, but to resolve this issue all I had to do was enter the URL into Facebook's Linter tool which in turn cleared the cache on their server.
Currently, I have an RSS Feed Reader in a UITableView within a Navigation Control. I would like to click on the links and Open up a formatted page (containing all of the information from the website formatted for the iOS screen). I'm not sure if I should do this using the RSS data and a UITextView? I'm currently attempting to use UITextView in hopes that I can separate the information (title, author, body) without anything looking promising. I want to be able to move around the data and format it to my liking in the actual application itself. I read around and noted that you can include HTML and custom CSS. Would this be the way to go? I'm not quite sure how to tackle this. I want the page that opens up to be entirely scrollable (Like the IGN application or Slashgear application). Many apps for websites utilize this (and I am a bit new to this). How do they go about this? I also want to note, at some point I will like to cache the data so it may load what is already loaded without being connected to the internet. Does anyone have any ideas?
Edit:
Ok, I believe I found the correct path to go down from playing around and a lot of googling (nothing directly says what a decent way of doing this is). My particular way as of now is the route of a UIScrollView in general. Now the part I don't understand is how to divide up the long text into 'pages' for scrolling (and I am using the paging feature. This situation has led me into this question: How To Separate Strings For UIScrollView/UITextView based on the size of the frame

I’m using the BuddyPress Activity Plus plugin and wanted to know if there was a way to call the full size image that was uploaded when viewing the single page of the activity?
I’ve looked at placing a line of code in “activity/entry.php” of the child theme but can’t find anything that will call its full size image, only the thumbnail shows with the link to the full size image to open in a lightbox.
This isn’t what I’m looking for, the full size image needs to be in place of the thumbnail when viewing the single activity page.
Any idea anyone? Sorry if this is the right place for this, just having trouble getting an answer
Many thanks
I'm looking to do a similar thing, not too much luck yet. Also - have you noticed that if you upload multiple images, they stack, rather then laying out side by side?
EDIT:
Found out how to make the images in the stream bigger:
You can set your preferred thumbnail size separately from your default thumbnail size settings, if you wish to do so. You can do that by adding this line to your wp-config.php:
define('BPFB_THUMBNAIL_IMAGE_SIZE', '200x200');
Where "200x200" are width and height (in that order), in pixels.
Finally, be sure to verify your default sizes for embedded media. It's in Settings -> Media -> Embeds -> Maximum embed size
