Hi Victor,
Thank you. Your tutorials are very helpful and I've bookmarked them for future reference. The solution came to me reading this one:Customize the Genesis Header with CSS Grid Layout
The "Additional CSS" in theme customizer prevented responsive CSS section from kicking in. By that I mean this code:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1023px) {
.title-area,
.wrap {
width: 100%;
}That's why the title wasn't centering the way I expected. To solve this, I removed the additional CSS and instead made the two minor changes in the child theme's styles.css and it worked perfectly.
Best,
Allan
The reaction you describe, "disaster of epic proportions," summarizes the reaction I initially got at the wordcamp talk. I was suspicious though, because I knew no code would be touched and that the scope would be configuration changes. What was interesting was that the call for caution was repeated at the "happiness bar" when I was talking to people who said that they were developers. I remained perplexed after that second conversation, so that's when I decided to post to this forum.
Rest assured that I'll be experimenting a lot over the next couple of weeks. I'm working on a couple of websites plus my local sandbox. Your answers have put wind in my sails and I'm off on my next adventure! I'm quite confident now that I won't be heading into stormy seas.
Thanks for the confirmation! I was surprised by the response I got at WordCamp RI when I asked the question. This is further confirmation that the Genesis framework adds a lot of value.
Good stuff. My only remaining question is how to get custom post types to show up in the drop-down lists for Genesis plugins, like the user profile? Thanks.
OK, I'll consider upgrading -- this is a good option. But, this puts me in the camp of customizing my child theme. Adding a file is no big deal, but I might need to customize the look & feel as compared to the OOTB infinity pro. Getting back to my first question, I'm concerned about maintenance should Studiopress issue an update to the child theme I'm using (Executive Pro). Is there a good guideline someplace with dos / don'ts / best practices? For example, I see that there is a Genesis Hooks Plugin, so this seems to be one way, among others, to coordinate my changes with Studiopress updates. BTW, your quick and on point answers are very much appreciated.
This looks like an interesting option. I looked at the Infinity Pro documentation and it looks like this theme includes a Team Page Template. Is starter code available someplace or do I need to buy Infinity Pro (or upgrade to an all theme license) for access? I like your idea, but don't want to start from scratch.
