Site Description/Tagline - Clipping Issue?
  • Vote Up0Vote Down pbedell13pbedell13
    The tagline is being clipped at the bottom (see the letter 'g' in Remodeling). Is there a CSS customization I can apply to fix this issue? I've tried a couple things, but can't seem to discover a solution. I'm a new user of the Striking theme, but I would think this might be a easy fix. I'm having this issue in both Firefox & Safari.

    Please see the screenshot. Thank you.

    Sorry for the delay. I am still setting the theme. The install directory is here: http://www.tworiversmultimedia.com/iseecorp/

    I adjusted the font size in the footer, and notice the same clipping issues.

    Please let me know when you have finished reviewing the site. I look forward to reviewing to solution. Thank you.

    Can you goto the font settings and set the logo desciption size to 12px and see if that brings back the "g" in the logo description?

    The problem is caused by the use off cufon fonts you can easily switch to a equivalent fontface or a google font and the problem will be solved i guess.
  • Vote Up0Vote Down pbedell13pbedell13
    Okay. I think I've decided to disable cufon. Too many inconsistencies.
  • Vote Up0Vote Down BackuPsBackuPs
    Great decission !! I did a long time ago. About in the first week i had striking.... when i saw the loading time of pages with cufon fonts enabled.. and after that the problem you described. So the cure was found very fast then.... disable it and turn to fontface and now we have google fonts in the theme. Lightning fast....

    Agree. Google Fonts are much faster. Nor am I experiencing the clipping issues.
    Thanks!

    I thought everything was functional... However, it turns out either I'm not activating the Google font support correctly within Striking, or they aren't working at all. However, if I use the WP Google fonts plugin, the fonts correctly in both Firefox and Safari. Is there something I should adjust in Striking, or should I resort to using the extra plugin?

    Please Advise.

    Thanks!

    Did you enable the fontface fonts and cufon fonts?

    Yes, fontface & cufon fonts are enabled. All that I'm seeing on my end is the font become a serif-based font (times-ish). However, the font "Yanone Kaffeesatz" (http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Yanone+Kaffeesatz) was chosen for testing purposes, and it is a san-serif. I sent you a PM with login details. Thank you.

    Hi,

    If you do not use cufon and fontface you should turn them off.

    in the google fonts settings you can tell which font needs to be where at what section.


    #footer .inner,
    h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,
    #page .inner {font-family: "Yanone Kaffeesatz:700";}


    if you want everything in that font just put in


    body {font-family: "Yanone Kaffeesatz:700";}


    I dont see any problem at all at your website. If i am mistaken get back to us.

    Best regards,

    Interesting. I see that you activated "Acme", which does indeed look like "Acme" (http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Acme), and does affect how the page looks.

    However, does "Yanone" look like it's supposed to on your machine? It's supposed to look similar to "Acme". On my computer, "Yanone" incorrectly displays as "Times". Perhaps that's where the issue is - Yanone isn't displaying correctly? Is this an issue with Google fonts, Striking, or my machine?

    Just trying to figure out where the issue truly is. Should I just choose a font that displays correctly, or is something actually wrong?

    Thanks for all your help and clarification on this issue.

    Hi,

    I have a problem with the yanone font as well but since the acme is working i believe the problem is some how the font.

    I will look into this with Kaptinlin tomorrow or tuesday. We get back to you.

    in the maintime i have the login details... keep on building your great website.

    Paul ~

    Thank you. I look forward to hearing what you find out.
  • Vote Up0Vote Down pbedell13pbedell13
    ps. I'm having the same issues with:
    Open Sans
    Raleway
    Josefin Sans

    For now, I'll stop looking at fonts and work other design aspects and content. I'll wait to hear your response before I resort to using the WP Google Fonts plugin. Thank you.

    Hi

    I am aware of the google fonts matter, and we will work on addressing it shortly.

    As for Cufon, when Striking was released, Cufon was all the rage, Font Face was brand new, and Google fonts but an idea just emerging. But Cufon, while very nice in some respects, has had increasing problems with rendering in today's web environment, and so we do suggest that users should not hesitate to consider alternatives.

    Happy Striking

    James~

    Thank you for the response. At this time I will use the WP Google Fonts plugin for typeface variation & design (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-google-fonts/). I look forward to Striking seeing an update in the future to properly support these features.

    Thank you and have a great week.
