    Hello,

    I am running the most recent version of Genesis(2.1.2) and using the Metro-Pro theme I purchased in 2013. My problem is that I do not see a widget or hook for altering the area immediately below a post title on single pages. In reading other forum posts I see that there is a hook for this area(#12) but in my dashboard I simply do not see this as an area that can receive a widget nor do I see the advanced hooks others report seeing in html5.

    I downloaded another copy of the metro-pro theme but it is the same version I purchased in 2013, it doesn't seem to be upgraded. I am capable of editing my functions file or making the required code changes myself but before I do that I'd like to know if I'm overlooking something obvious to get the widget to this area working.

    Thanks for any help

    P.S. I'd rather keep the URL of my site private, if a mod can figure it out and wants to look that's fine, my request is for general advice(turning on widget to area below post title with metro-pro theme and most recent genesis install) and is not specific to my site.

    Hi,

    unless you are using the simple hooks plugin, you won´t have "access" to or be able to see hooks from the dashboard. You will have to "hook" into these areas with code in the functions.php.

    What do you want to change below the post title? The post meta?
    If so, this plugin might be helpful: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-simple-edits/

    If you want to add an additional widget area at this position, you will have to register it in the functions.php

    Hi Christoph, I used the link you suggested and modified my functions file, mission accomplished. I needed to remove the author link from under the title since it is redundant in my setup, I have a different about/author site.

    Thanks
