Minimum Pro Customisations

[Cheshire]

Hello Wonderful People

I am trying to customise the Minumum Pro theme for this site: http://hiddenvalleyeco.com.au/. There are three thing I am pulling my hair out trying to achieve

1) How do I remove that grey stripe with the site tagline?
2) How do I make the featured background image slightly smaller in height (I want it to be be 320px high)
3) This is a static website, not a blog, so how do I remove the 'Sorry, no content matched your criteria.' as I wont have posts

To remove the grey stripe, remove the site header's border in the CSS:

.site-header {
    background-color: #4e3e56;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;
    left: 0;
    letter-spacing: 1px;
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: 999;
}

Thank you Pixel

Removing that CSS code didnt do anything....

I've tried deleting a few of the .site-tagline lines as well, but it affects the background image

Would it be something in the functions.php file?

I'm hesitant to remove the tagline from General Settings..........

Hello, I have a question like Chershire, I would like to remove that grey stripe with the site tagline, but only in a pair of pages.

The theme is minimum pro and I am working in my website:

Thanks

Hi,

1. Around line 463 of the style.css change

.site-tagline {
    background-color: #F5F5F5;

to

.site-tagline {
    background-color: #FFF;

If you also want to get rid of the remaining thin grey border, delete
border-bottom: 1px solid #EEE;
right underneath.

2. Did you already change that? The height is 328px.
Generally speaking just use an image that is 300 px high.

You might want to optimize the image (you can use a service like tinyjpg.com or tinypng.com).
The page load time was rather long.

3. Delete or comment out line 38 in the front-page.php
This is what it looks like commented out:
// add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'minimum_grid_loop_helper' );

Hi Chirstoph,

My website is over construction and I don't know if is it possible to show it!!

[Jairba]

I Christoph,

Is it possible to do with php functions?? If I do what you said it works but remove in all pages and I would like to have the site-tagline in home page.

Thanks!

Hello Christoph

Thank you so much for your reply

1) That is just changing the colour of the grey to white - I actually want to remove the whole tagline function from the homepage

2) Yes, the image was being pixelated so I loaded the original which is a massive picture....Ive resized it to being 320px high - but it is distorting/stretching the image - the height is not becoming smaller - currently the image is 2000x320.

Interestingly when I apply Firebug tools the image suddenly swaps to not being pixelated and stretched - thats weird!

3) Thank you worked perfectly!

Hi,

@Cheshire

to remove the site tagline completely from the website comment out the following around line 122 in the functions.php
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'minimum_site_tagline' );

so that it looks like this:
// add_action('genesis_after_header', minimum_site_tagline');

You might have to adjust some css...

That code is already in your stylesheet. You need to remove the border border-bottom: 1px solid #eee; to remove the grey line.

Thanks Christoph - I htink Im just going to have to remove the tagline, thus metadata from General Settings.

That was one of the first things I tried, but it moves the background image to being under my footer.

I really appreciate the help from you both! Thanks so much!

Hello

Hidden Valley

I am still persevering with trying to get this theme do what I want/expect. There are snowball effects which I am not expecting.

When I delete the tagline from General Settings I am left with a large white space.

If I try to alter the padding and margins for .site-tagline and .site-inner it affects the formatting of the text for the headers in the content pages.

I don't seem to be able to comment out the function in function.php as it moves the background image to below the footer.

I would really appreciate any suggestions.
