How to copy text style to another text block & can you solve the issue with the Switcher?

Brian Admin

Hi representative,

I have two issues and questions:

1. Copying text styles:

I know you have the global settings for texts (font, settings for header 1, paragraph, etc...)

But what I'm looking for is what I'm able to do for buttons:

- Let's say I created 6 buttons, but I decide to change them later on (different size, different font). What I'm able to do is select button 1, right click, copy, and then past style into the other 5 buttons. This way they all change size and font and font size.

- Now, let's say with text: I have 6 titles and 6 lines of text above the buttons. I also decide later on to change the font size and font type of all these 12 lines of text.

- I can't seem to right click, copy, and past style the changes I make on the first to the others.

- I have to manually click all 12 lines 1 for 1 and pick from the global styles to match the size of font, the font type, and to make it bold or not (let's say I changed from not bold to bold, i have to do this for all 12). 

- I cannot simply change it for 1 and then duplicate, because the text above each icon is different. 

So my problem occurs when you want to decide to make changes to texts later on. Global text styles don't seem to help here. Maybe I overlook, but it seems there is not a simple copy, past style solution for text as there is for buttons?

2. I tried to work with the Switcher: switchers into switchers, in order to create choices for visitors:

- 1st Switcher with the text above the switcher: Do you like red or green? Example:

Do you like red or green?

red - switcher - green

- If the visitor moves to the right (green), I want another switcher appear below:

"Ok, you like green, but do you mean light or dark green?"

light green - switcher - dark green

Next:

"You chose dark green, we have 2 types of paint in that colour, do you want A or B?"

A - switcher - B

--> You see that I tried to create a switcher in a switcher in a switcher?

However this does not seem to work, you always jump back to the first switcher and the settings/decisions changed again.

Is there a solution for this? It would be a great if I can have visitors make choices and new options appear without it looking buggy.

Thanks.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your message.

    1 - Button text style - I can suggest you something easier and more professional. I can suggest creating a custom style for Button/s and use it for the buttons you want. In case you want to change the button style, you can simply change the typography and that's all. For this, you can go to the Styling and click on "Add new". In such a way will be created a new Typography, You can name it e.g. "Button #1" and set all settings you want. In such a way you can create as many typographies as you want. Then go to the buttons and select it as typography style. See here.

    For paragraph and text, you can follow the same tip&trick. You can create custom typography and use them in these cases.

     

    2 - Unfortunately, in Brizy we don't have a similar element of feature and if the Switcher plugin/service can't provide it, Brizy can't change something in it, re-code it or improve it. You can try checking other plugins/services that can offer a similar functionally and that will have the ability to export its code in the embed code or shortcode to be easily used in the Brizy pages.

     

    Thanks!

    Best regards,
    Sandra

    Hi Sandra,

    Thank you for the quick reply.

    For 2: ok will check for other plugins (but I hope that the 'standard' elements provided by Brizy are continuously updated and approved to make it best of class, no one is waiting for subpar elements, better to leave them out in that case)

    For 1: I understand you can set styles for paragraph, button, header 1, etc... but sometimes you want to tweak afterwards, not every piece of text or button will be the same everywhere. Besides this, it is an extra click: you need to click on the T symbol and choose the preset style. I want to be able to change the font of 1 piece of text for example by -1, copy the style, and past the style by using 1 click or key combinations key board. Will something like this be introduced?

    Hi,

    Thank you for your message, reply and feedback.

    Yes, we are constantly working on improving the existing elements and adding new elements that will increase the level of working with Brizy and provide a better experience. For us, it is an important aspect and we every day work hard on this. Our slogan is "It's easy with Brizy" and we want to maintain it.

    At the moment, we have in the suggestion list the ability to copy and paste text styles and the team are investigating this option and suggestion. Unfortunately, we can't provide an ETA for it as now, we have other features, fixes and improvements in the "progress work" and "next to do" list but this doesn't mean that we don't will release it. 

    Thank you!

    Best regards,
    Sandra

    Hi Sandra,

    Thank you for considering it. Would be a great feature.

    Another issue is all the register and login plugins with their weaknesses and strengths.

    You want to provide users a frond end experience. Theme my logged in used to be good, but now let you pay a lot extra if you want people to be redirected to a certain page.

    I see Brizy has a log in element, but as far as my research goes it looks very basic: only log in, no redirect options.

    What would be a great and simple feature for Brizy to implement in the near future and what no plugin maker seems to understand:

    - Login form with shortcode, ability to redirect to same page, or page of choice (even better: unique choice for that shortcode)

    - Registration form with shortcode, ability to redirect to same page, or page of choice (even better: unique choice for that shortcode)

    - Forget password with shortcode, ability to redirect to same page, or page of choice (even better: unique choice for that shortcode)

    That should not be to difficult to make and would greatly enhance the experience for visitors and users of Brizy.

    Kind regards,

    Hi,

    Thank you for your feature request and all these details. We have plans to release the register form element and we are happy to receive feedback from our users regarding it. I informed our team regarding your suggestions and they will consider them.

    Thanks!

    Best regards,

    Thanks Sandra,

    Not sure if this is the right location, but I have a question about wpdiscuz comments plugin, in my opinion one of the best commenting plugins available.

    I downloaded the plugin and looked on their support page. Since I use Brizy template builder to create the single post page, I need to embed a shortcode into the page. 

    They say they have the following shortcode, but it did not work:

    [wpdiscuz_comments]

    When I scrolled further on this page: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-for-wpdiscuz/

    I saw that one person already replied in the thread on what you have to do to make this work for Brizy. This is what is written:

    Adding the following code to the comments.php file in the Brizy Plugin:

    /** * Add support for DISCUZ comments plugin */ function my_wpdiscuz_shortcode() { if (file_exists(ABSPATH . 'wp-content/plugins/wpdiscuz/templates/comment/comment-form.php')) { ob_start(); include_once ABSPATH . 'wp-content/plugins/wpdiscuz/templates/comment/comment-form.php'; return ob_get_clean(); } } add_shortcode('wpdiscuz_comments', 'my_wpdiscuz_shortcode');</code>

    Could you please let me know if this is the way forward in order to make it work? And maybe explain it in a bit more detail step by step what needs to be done, in order for me to not mess up code backend and damage the pages?

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Could you please check if the same shortcode is working on a non-Brizy page? When an external code is added in Brizy pages using the embed code or shortcode, the Brizy builder compiles and displays what the embed code and shortcode have. Brizy doesn't add some of its code and doesn't modify it but display in that way is exported by the plugin generated it. If the shortcode doesn't work fine, therefore, the problem can be originated from the plugin that generated it.

    Unfortunately, we can ensure if this workaround provided by one of the Brizy users will work but you can try it. By the way, I want to confess to you that I'm happy to hear that Brizy users help each other and create our community strong and friendly.

    Also, I want to add that we have direct integration with Disqus Comments and it is already integrated into the Brizy Comments element. You can try using it. See here how you can add it.

    Best regards,
    Sandra

    Hi Sandra,

    I will check with the plugin maker, it seems the short code is also not working on normal post pages.

    Question:

    - Is it save for me to add the above code to the mentioned location? Any additional (step by step) instructions you can provide in order for me to not mess up the code (now, or for future updates)?

    - Let's say I want to continue with using the 'Disqus comments' that is already integrated with Brizy, can we remove the 'Brizy-disqus' header that I see when going for this option as a comment section under my posts? I like it to be a dedicated site experience with no mentioning of 3rd parties or plugin/builder names.

    Kind regards,

    Hi,

    Thank you for your message and reply.

    1 - As I said before it isn't a Brizy guarantee method of integrating the WP Discuz. Therefore, it has some risks and in the case will appear some problems or inconveniences in the Brizy pages or in the entire WP environment, we couldn't help with this. For this reason, we can't provide the step by step instruction on how to make that workaround work fine on the Brizy pages. If you are starting to learn WP and coding, we don't recommend modifying some Brizy or WordPress files but in case you have a developer or a friend who has a solid knowledge base of the WordPress, WP plugins, codding and all files that can store a WP site, you can try to apply that workaround;

    2 - Unfortunately, the label "Disqus Comments" are coming from the integration. It isn't added by Brizy and therefore can't be changed from the Brizy settings. You can try adding some Custom CSS to hide it.

    Thanks!

    Best regards,
    Sandra

    Hi Sandra, 

    Could you help me with 2, some custom CSS? I know it will be on my own risk, just let me know where I should post it backend.

    Hi,

    I'm sorry, I checked a bit deeply the integration and the ways to modify something with Custom CSS. Seems that it isn't so simple and I'm not sure that will be possible to change some details with the Custom CSS. 

    Let us know if we can help you with something else.

    Best regards,
    Sandra
