Genesis 2 and HTML5

[jimdavis46]

The introduction information for Genesis 2 says "With a single line of code in a child theme, Genesis will now output HTML5 markup in place of the old XHTML tags." I have searched the site and can't seem to find this "single line of code" to add to my child theme. Please provide a link to this code.

Thanks

Here you go:

add_theme_support( ‘genesis-html5′ );

Thanks! Works great.  Screwed up the header in the Minimum Child Theme, but that can be fixed.

Hi, sorry a follow up,

I am using enterprise theme,

[mmjaeger]

you add it to your child's theme functions.php file

I added this to the child theme functions.php file:

/** Add HTML5 Support **/
add_theme_support( 'genesis-html5' );

Note that the single quotation marks are not curly quotes as used by many word processors. They are straight single quotes used by most simple text editors.

Make a backup copy of your functions.php file before you make any modifications.
