    Hi, on this site: http://www.corva.org/wp/ I'm working with Metro theme for the first time and I'm having a very weird issue that I've never encountered before. There are no settings for background or header under "Appearance." Tutorial refers to it so I know it should be there, but it's not. Theme functions has what I believe is the correct stuff in it to support this:

    // Add support for custom background
    add_theme_support( 'custom-background', array( 'wp-head-callback' => '__return_false' ) );

    // Add support for custom header
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array(
    'flex-height' => true,
    'height' => 87,
    'width' => 1080
    ) );

    But all I have under Appearance menu is Widgets, Menus and Editor. No Header, no Background.

    I tried unistalling and reinstalling the theme but it didn't change anything.

    Please help!

    Maybe a plugin conflict. Deactivate all your plugins and reactivate them one by one.

    Hi,

    I deactivated every single plugin but the theme still doesn't show the Header or Background under Appearance.

    With all plugins deactivated, I've activated another theme that's not Genesis, then activated Genesis, then the Theme. Still no header/background options under Appearance.

    Current theme used is Executive 2.0 and Genesis 1.9.1

    Thanks,

    Hanna in Tahoe

    This may occur if you aren't using the latest version of WordPress.

    @hannab, copy and paste that code into Notepad. Then highlight what got pasted... copy and paste it back into your function.php. Sometimes the apostrophe's and semi-colons just don't paste over properly.
