    1. Would anyone happen to know how to either:

    a) Have the home page on Ambiance Pro show custom pages instead of posts?

    or

    b) Create a similar effect in html/css?

    2. Change the maximum-width of the content area to 1140px instead of 740px? I have tried doing it (link below) but it doesn't respond properly.

    3. Have sidebars on certain pages instead of only being able to have a full-width content area?

    Thanks for any of the answers if you're able to supply!

    1. Use your welcome message widget area to add the Genesis Featured Posts widget. You will need to change some styles if you want the appearance to be similar to the demo.

    2. Again, style changes. It looks like you changed the width, but the @media query isn't called soon enough, so at some screen sizes you have the horizonal scroll page.

    3. You'll need to add back in the different layout options via your functions file, and then make sure the styles are available in the theme to display properly.

    How does one code the functions.php to call in featured pages instead of featured posts?

    Ideally I would choose one featured page to show all content in the Welcome Widget (though as I do it in my test it has the shaded background behind the content, rendering it unreadable, so I'd need to change that in CSS)

    And then have 2-4 boxes below with the other featured pages.

    Hey Liz, I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do. Either way, I would recommend starting your own thread if you still need assistance! 🙂

    Best,
    Lauren
