    Hi,

    I am having few issues with home page of Metric:

    1. Installed and configured WP-Cycle. Nothing works or shows.

    2. Home Top Write widget - Should show the featured page text but shows only the title.

    3. Metric menu - tried to remove and display custom menu. Not working

    I work in FF.

    Looking forward for your input

    For WP-Cycle, you must go to Media > WP-Cycle and then manually insert images. Did you do that?

    Home Top Right Widget - you need to select "Show Content" or Excerpt.

    For the menus, go to Appearance > Menus - make sure you have selected or deselected the appropriate menus in the Primary & Secondary.

    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    Did exactly this but still does not work 🙁

    Home Top Right Widget – you need to select “Show Content” or Excerpt.

    Did this and it worked. However, it created new issue - the "read more" button is huge 🙁

    For the menus, go to Appearance > Menus – make sure you have selected or deselected the appropriate menus in the Primary & Secondary.

    Did exactly this and still does not work.

    What else can be done?

    Thank you anitac for your response and help.

    The images should be in Home Top LEFT not RIGHT. You have text in the RIGHT.

    Did everything as you said.

    The wp-cycle plugin - does it have to go somehow inside the widgeted area?

    Here is the link to Home Top LEFT and  RIGHT

    The top left shouldn't have anything in it. The WP-Cycle should work if you take that widget out of there. The only time you should put something in there is if you DON'T want the slider but you want something else. So remove that widget out of there and it should work if you have images loaded in the WP-Cycle.

    I am trying to get the menu to look like the theme demo.  I have gone to the tutorials and other places for the answer and it just is not there.  Suggestions please.  Currently the menu bar is located right on top of the slider.
