    Not sure if it is the right place or not.

    But there isn't anything in the search widget code that would do that. However the code isn't that complex so it would be fairly straightforward to clone the code and create your own custom widget with the logic you require (assuming you have a moderate of WordPress/PHP coding skills) I have had to do this several times where the Studio Press widgets were not quite flexible enough.

    Hi Frankie, as this is primarily a studiopress / genesis forum, you may get a better response from a broader WordPress discussion group, you could try the WordPress group on Linked-In or the WordPress group on Reddit. But I think you need to identify the plugin to get any real response (from anywhere)

    Try this plugin 'WordPress Social Sharing Optimization (WPSSO)' it often sorts out issues with images and social sharing sites.

    Please let me know how you get on.

    This is interesting, as a similar issue came up on a Linked in WordPress group. The consensus was that clicking and zooming around a desktop site is only preferred by very few and probably isn't worth the effort.

    As this is fairly rare requirement, I doubt that any one has specifically coded a solution as a plugin.

    It should, in theory be possible with a little bit of coding.

    The outline would be to set a session cookie to determine preference and then switch the viewport, genesis makes this fairly easy. The following isn't complete code to any extend but covers what I am thinking about. It probably would only take an hour or two to get a working solution.

    //* Add custom Viewport meta tag for mobile browsers
    add_action( 'genesis_meta', 'sp_viewport_meta_tag' );
    function sp_viewport_meta_tag() {
    
       if    (desktop_required() ) {
            //  fixed viewport: note width must be set to your themes desktop width  thismight be 1024 or another number
             echo    '<meta name="viewport" content="width=924, maximum-scale=1">';
             } else {
            // responsive viewport
    	echo '<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>';
    }
    
    function desktop_required() {
         // some code here to examine a cookie or option to return true if desktop layout is demanded
    }
    
    add_action( 'genesis_after_footer'  'do_some_link_stuff');
    function  do_some_link_stuff() {
        // code to display mark up for a link that has logic that displays  depending on desktop_required())
        //  and is also hidden in css over  a width of say 480px
        echo '<div class='hide-on-desktop'>';
           if (desktop_required()) {
                   //  link - show mobile format  - this link if clicked will have to do something like set a cookie or option
          } else {
                  //  link - show desktop format - this link if clicked will have to do something like set a cookie or option
         }
        echo '</div>';
    
    }

    A plugin called 'Duplicator' will allow you to, well, duplicate.

    Inline styling has its place in web design, especially where small inlined css can improve performance, and in dynamic site elements where javascript dynamically changes styles, such as sliders. Also inline styles are 100% necessary in html email as css is not interpreted.

    But if course your probably knew that and were just joking.

    Your solution is correct.

    It is common misunderstanding that the blog page is a page. It isn't in wordpress terms it is_home().

    Even if you created a page and assign it to the blog posts (settings > readings ) I assume that is what you have the 'page' isn't really used at all.

    1) you could add some css
    e.g.
    .featured-content img {max-width: 500px;}
    or
    .featured-content img {width: 50%;}

    2) generally images in widgets are responsive, if they are not then you need to set the widths to be in % terms of their containers

    3) you will need to decide on the step changes and then use media queries in your css http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_mediaquery.asp
    your theme will already have some media queries, up to you what you use but common steps 768, 480, 320

    Interesting ,as you are using metro pro and your markup has a <p> not an <h1>

    The default situation is to mark it up as an h1

    <div class="title-area">
    <h1 class="site-title" itemprop="headline">
    <a href="http://demo.studiopress.com/metro/">Metro Pro</a>
    </h1>
    <h2 class="site-description" itemprop="description">Mobile Responsive for the Genesis Framework</h2>
    </div>

    From the demo.

    So something is modifying this (or your framework / theme is out of date )

    Have you a (no Yoast) SEO plugin perhaps? Turn all plugins off and see what your markup becomes.

    It is possible to modify the mark-up but it is good out of the box, and yours isn't. Strange.

    In your style.css

    div.home-top.widget-area {text-align: center;}

    The advice from Lauren is correct and accurate.

    Step 1. find the selector that is appropriate, the best way to see this is with browser development tools that allow you to inspect elements. In Chrome it is build in (right click), with FireFox you need the Firebug add-in, in IE it is Developer Tools (F12)

    in this case div.home-top.widget-area

    Step2. apply the appropriate css

    probably the best place to find that out if your are not a developer is here http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/default.asp

    Assuming your are using an HTML5 theme then don't bother. Single H1 tags per page only really applies to non HTML5 sites, and is 'old SEO' that gets churned out of automated tools.

    Hi,

    genesis is full of hooks to do this sort of customisation.

    There are plugins that can do this sort of things, but if you want to work in code check out http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/

    For your particular case http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/footer/#credits

    As above, it looks like you are really struggling. If a website is unimportant to your business, then just simplify it down to a contact form, use the sample theme and don't worry about it (as its not important)

    If it is important to your business and your business is serious, employ a professional or an agency.

    Perhaps you could describe the difference between your theme and the sample theme?

    The only difference I spotted is you have added a hamburger menu.

    You can add the iframe to any site, WordPress or not, Genesis or not.

    All depends what you want to achieve, but the simplest is to login to WordPress admin, add a new page, call it store or whatever you like and go to 'text' mode in the editor and paste in the code amazon gave you. This should work fine.
