"...just replace...and then... This can be difficult..." Indeed. My point. Specifically and especially if newcomers to Genesis are seeing how friendly this well-known theme is. The gen child sample, setup documentation and logo styling for newcomers should be flawless [imho of course].

thanks for the heads-up on the logo uploader 'feature'.

"...if it was just me, it would be fine; but I think they require more coding than my client is going to be comfortable with. They love the look of Genesis and Parallax Pro but want to be able to build a site like..."

+10 to that!

Visual Composer appears to work well for the challenges involved in the quote above. In addition VC has extensibility [if that's the right word] that many others have taken advantage of [e.g. VC-popup, VC-ihover etc..]. I would think it's well worth a try. It has depth, breadth and is designed to be a drag-n'drop [visual] solution. Given a few days commitment to learning I would think it should serve well.

Another thing you could look at, if you're not too far down the road, is Divi. It's a substantial solution - and not just to the issue that started this thread.

Responsive is on my to-do-list - when the client is happy with the boxes and general layout... I'm sure it's just a matter of adding in the .screenwidth where necessary.

also, thanks for your link to the plugin. What workarounds did you come across?

Also, sorry, second thing I always do in all my WP installs is to turn off the visual editor. "...once bitten, twice shy.." 🙂

Code? No problem!!

Here's the Page linked to above - in full sloppiness!

i am in the middle of solving this notwithstanding any mo' beddah solutions that might appear.. [NOT even remotely interested in Divi or 3rd Party Page Template Plug-ins [e.g. ig-pagebuilder or whatever it is this week]]

This solution below appears to work but, caveat, not all permutations have been tested...

Starting with the Parallax Pro child theme's style.css I saw this below:

.site-inner, .wrap {
	margin: 0 auto;
	max-width: 1200px; /* 6/2 changed from 1140px */
}
.site-inner {
	clear: both;
	margin-top: 170px;
}
.parallax-home .site-inner {
	margin-top: 100px; /* 6/16 watch this one */;
	max-width: 100%;
}
.parallax-landing .site-inner {
	margin-top: 100px;
}

I then created a new class in [child theme's] style.css called .screenwidth.

Then added it like so:

/* My Screen Width Pages 8/31/2014 */

.screenwidth .site-inner, .screenwidth .content-sidebar-wrap, .screenwidth .content {
    margin-top: 40px;
    max-width: 100%;
    width: 100%;
	padding:0;
}

.screenwidth .wrap {
    width: 1200px;
	margin:0 auto;
}

.screenwidth .content .page {
	margin:0;
}

Then, added the .screenwidth to the custom class in a Page layout like below:

Looks like this [under dev.]

Comments welcomed. Thanks.

I think i goddit. I just have to remove the whole line:

// if ( is_front_page() && is_active_sidebar('after-header') )
{

and then it'll show on just pages declared with a Widget 'Display on Page' plugin..

Awesome. Thanks again.

Sometimes what seems so 'second nature' to some saves others hours of head-banging.

If I wanted to have this full-width display on other pages - not just Front - would I change this line below:
if ( is_front_page() && is_active_sidebar('after-header') ) {

To this one:
if ( && is_active_sidebar('after-header') ) {

- Thank you for posting the function... Appreciated much.
