Hi, I'll try to answer each question for you.
1. Header: How can I make the header image deeper i.e. to enlarge it?
By deeper, do you mean taller? If so, you can modify the maximum height setting for your header image by going to Customize > Custom CSS and adding the following code:
.header-background-image img
{
max-height: 1000px;
}
You may change 1000px to be any height you would like. Then, upload a new image that will fill up the available space. To replace the current image, go to Toolset > Layouts and edit Header and Footer. Click the image cell to modify the current image with any image from your Media Library.
2. Header/Menu: How do I relocate the menu to sit on top of the header image, and without the red colouring? I just want plain text.
You will need to add the following code in Customize > Custom CSS:
.ddl-nav-wrap.ddl-navbar.ddl-navbar-default.ddl-nav-horizontal {
background: none;
}
This will remove the background color from your desktop menu. The mobile menu will retain the background color.
3. In the ‘featured ads’, how do I remove the words that cover the image, and place the words underneath the image?
Edit the Layout for this page. Edit the Featured Ads slider cell. In the "Ad format - slider" template, open the CSS editor panel and add the following code:
.featured-slider .featured-item
{
vertical-align: top;
}
.featured-slider .featured-item header.block-under-image {
position: relative;
right: 0;
left: 0;
}
4. Search Box: I have removed the ‘price’ filter/box, but now the other boxes are out of alignment. How do I relocate the boxes so they are inline? Also, how do I make the boxes larger (wider) than what they are?
You can modify the HTML and CSS for your filters by going to Toolset > Views > Parametric ads search. Scroll down the page to the Filter Editor and make your changes here. If this is something you need assistance with, let me know.
5. Maps: The Classified reference site does not have the Maps plugin included. I do feel that it is necessary these days to have a map included, is it just a matter of uploading the maps plugin when it comes to my own site, and it all should work nicely? I can see that this is a vague question, but it’s still a question.
Depending on what you want to do, the Maps plugin may or may not be required. The Maps plugin is useful if you want to add location information to each post, like an address, and have a corresponding map display on the single post page. You'll need a Google Maps API Key, but everything else can be provided by the Toolset plugins. More information about the Maps plugin can be found here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/display-on-google-maps/
If you just want to show a single map that displays your office location or something similar, the Maps plugin isn't necessary. You can follow these instructions from Google: hidden link
