Homepage › Community Forums › Epik Theme Support › Background Widget After Entry
Hello guys!
On the one hand, I saw this post in CopyBlogger: http://www.copyblogger.com/attention-manifesto/ and I want know how I can customize the background widget After Entry. Is it a plugin? I think that is a Text Widget, but I don’t get that effect ๐
On the other hand, the section “Smarter is Better” with three columns, how can I do that? This is awesome.
Thank you for your time.
Yes you can add a text widget to your After Entry widget area and it’s supposed to show up after your content. I can’t say how copyblogger created the 3 column part though…..it could be a plugin, but it could also just be custom code added in a text widget. It’s hard to find out, but you could ask them maybe? It’s worth a shot since they do offer plenty of plugins, and if it is a plugin they offer I’m sure they’d be more than happy to tell you what it is.
Either way you can still add a Text widget or any type of widget in that area and it should show up as long as you’re using the latest version of Epik since it has that widget as a feature.

Hi Eric,
Thank you for your reply. You are awesome ๐
I will ask to CopyBlogger if that is a plugin.
I try add a Text Widget to After Entry Widget, but I don’t know how I can custom the background…
Thank you for your help and time.
I can help you with the background part. Do you have a link to your site so I can see exactly what line in your css will need to be adjusted?
Have you seen the after entry widget example they have on the Epik demo site? Take a look at one of their posts to get a feel for what it looks like – http://demo.appfinite.net/epik/2013/08/13/hello-world/ it stars out with a black background which can be adjusted from line 2411 by default –
.after-entry {
background: #222;
color: #aaa;
margin: 60px 0;
overflow: hidden;
text-align: center;
}

Hi Eric,
Sorry, but I couldn’t reply before.
In style.css I didn’t find .after-entry. I use to Blue Theme Color Epik.
Thank for your help.
Do you have a link to your site so I can check everything?

Yes, how can I send you the link as private?
Eric, I think you should read this post https://appfinite.com/topic/bug-after-entry-epik/ I installed Epik in 2 web site with different result.
Thank you for your help. You are really awesome.
Yes you can send it to me in a private message by clicking the Check Box that says ” Set as private reply” below the message box here.
Make sure and send me a link to both of your sites so I can see what the difference is.
If I don’t see it tonight, I will definitely get to it first thing in the morning (getting ready to get some sleep since it’s late for me).

Ok, it looks like you’re using a slightly older version of Epik (1.4) The new version is 1.4.1, and you can download that from your account (wherever you purchased it from).
The after-entry widget and css code was added in the latest version. If you have already made adjustments to your css, then I wouldn’t upgrade as it will override your current changes. You can manually add the code to your theme if you need to. Let me know if you’ve added changes or not…..if you haven’t then you should be able to just replace the older version of your theme with the new version.

Ok, thank you for your time Eric ๐
I purchased Epik form StuidoPress. How can I update Epik? In my Dashboard, Worpress, I don’t see the update…
And… Yes, I made adjustments in CSS… ๐
When dealing with WordPress Child themes, you have to replace the theme in order to use the newer version. So that would mean you’d need to delete the older version and install the newer version. But if you’ve made changes then I’d recommend just adding in the code you need manually since deleting and installing a new version will overwrite your custom changes to your css file.
If you want to just add the code in yourself, there are a lot of tutorials that show how to do it if you do a Google search. I just did one and found out that they’ve added in some code to the Genesis Framework which does all of the hard work for you, so all you have to do is enable the feature. Check out this tutorial – http://briangardner.com/email-signup-form-after-posts/ and you should be good to go.
