Maelezo ya Shindano

I am looking for a developer to provide some CSS and one PHP customisation to a WordPress theme from a reputed developer (the theme is Newspaper 10 by TagDiv).

The two main areas for consideration are the homepage and the single article pages. We have installed the theme on our test WordPress site and produced the attached mockups for what we seek to achieve, on top of the pre-built theme template.

For the homepage:
Top header with patterns (SVG?) which scale to smaller screens and can be hidden on mobile devices;
A vertical page border;
Overlays on the post grids to show red angled and horizontal lines, reflecting style from logo;
Category tags overlaid onto article images, with slanted sides, and colour dependent on the post category;
The row of widget blocks (with the circuit graphics) can use the same CSS implementation of the red slanted lines as the current website;
Although the mockup only has Flex Block 1, it would be good to have the styles on Flex Blocks 1-5 and on Blocks 1-25 to allow for new page styles to be created in future (if this is relatively straightforward to do);
The top two articles are actually a posts grid, so could a copy of this be made so that we have the option of a posts grid with the customised style, and the original one which comes with the theme;

For the single article page:

Header as per the homepage mockup;
Red slanted lines and underline beneath article title (reflecting the style of the logo)
PHP customisation - for the author byline, we'd like this to be completely hidden if the author is 'News Editor' (ID 46) but showing at all other times. The author name should also be a link to the user's Twitter profile, with a small blue twitter logo in front (the same style as we currently use on the live website for the author bylines - also notice the PHP customisation which hides the author on some pages too)
All of the titles in the sidebars to be of a style like in the homepage mockup (i.e. red slashes and underlines).

NOTE: ALL CUSTOMISATIONS SHOULD BE COMPLETED AS PART OF A CHILD THEME.

    I would like to ask if you created your new design with 'Cloud Templates' and if you are using the 'td Standard Pack' extension or the 'td Composer' extension or just Newspaper? Each handles the author container creation different.

      - May I ask you to navigate to the Plugin directory td-standard-pack/Newspaper/parts/single/? There you can see around a dozen single-loop.php files, each one is a different template, how posts can be displayed design wise. You are currently also using one of those. A template can be overwritten and persistently stored by copying it in the child theme. The idea would be to replace the line in the template you use with ten lines of code that offer the functionality you need. This method is easy and quick, but it only changes the specific template.
      - The other option I am currently working on is reading through their documentation if they offer function overwriting and overloading. This is more time consuming, but the changed code could simply be stored in the childs function.php and would apply for every template and the whole page, so less prune to errors.

      Since the contest is open for another day, I wouldn't mind doing some extra research tomorrow, if you prefer the second option.

      I can see the single-loop.php parts, but it is not clear to me how the CSS styles from the particular cloud library template I have used can be overridden using the files in td-standard-pack? By the way, I already have some PHP code from the existing template for how to hide the particular author ID, we just need to work out where to put the code. The CSS customisation is potentially a bigger challenge - i.e. where to store the CSS and how to override the cloud library settings?

      There is time, I won't review things again until Monday.
