Counter customization

Hello!

Love the design of Illdy.

Was curious if its possible to customize the counter, for example, I want to show how many views we get on facebook a day.

Is there somewhere I can change the widget for a single counter to include “Million” or “M” at the end of the value?

Also the possibility for showing a icon before the value?

Thank you

Hi @valen,

Is possible, but you will need some php and html skills, or hire a developer. The file that needs to be edited is:

github.com

ColorlibHQ/illdy/blob/master/sections/front-page-counter.php

<?php
/**
 *  The template for displaying the counter section in front page.
 *
 *  @package WordPress
 *  @subpackage illdy
 */
?>

<?php
if ( current_user_can( 'edit_theme_options' ) ) {
	$counter_background_type  = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_type', 'image' );
	$counter_background_image = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_image', esc_url( get_template_directory_uri() . '/layout/images/front-page/front-page-counter.jpg' ) );
	$counter_background_color = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_color', '#000000' );
} else {
	$counter_background_type  = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_type' );
	$counter_background_image = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_image' );
	$counter_background_color = get_theme_mod( 'illdy_counter_background_color' );
}

Don’t forget to use a child theme when you do changes.

Thank you,

Hello Cristian, thanks for the quick reply.

I don’t know how I’m able to do this for each counter separately though?

Im somewhat decent with html and php but lack the knowledge to customize each counter separately, could you possibly help?

Hi @valen,

Unfortunately this falls out from free support and more in to custom developing since you want to change the theme.

Thanks,

Cristian
