    I found the problem...seems I had to delete a profanity filter before the issue would go away.

    what is strange is that old comments and post content displays but anything new does not.

    You can add the following to your styles.css. make sure to replace .class_name with the name of the section you will be putting the widgets into such as footer-widgets, or home-top, or home-middle etc.

    This will display the widgets side by side.

    .class_name .widget {
    float: left;
    padding: 0 2.8%;
    width: 50%;
    }

    .class_name .widget:nth-of-type(2n+1) {
    clear: left;
    }

    You may want to shorten your site title. I looked at it and it's very long. As well as the site description.

    You will want to add the following in your functions.php file.

    genesis_register_sidebar( array(
    'id' => 'custom-widget',
    'name' => __( 'Custom Widget', 'genesis' ),
    'description' => __( 'Custom Widget Area', 'themename' ),
    ) );

    add_action( 'genesis_before_entry', 'add_genesis_widget_area', );
    function add_genesis_widget_area() {
    genesis_widget_area( 'custom-widget', array(
    'before' => '<div class="widget-class">',
    'after' => '</div>',
    ) );

    }

    You can then add custom styles to .widget-class or rename to your liking

    if you are getting the white screen it means you deleted extra code or did not delete all of your custom code. You can change out the functions.php file with the default code and the screen should come back just fine.

    I am not sure why this isn't working for you but I can create add the custom code I provided just fine and I have a recent posts widget with exclude options.

    as for your exclude category from the homepage, you need to modify the numbers for your category id

    <?php
    function excludeCat($query) {
    if ( $query->is_home ) {
    $query->set('cat', '-3,-5,-23');
    }
    return $query;
    }
    add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'excludeCat');
    ?>

    change the -3, -5, -23 to the categories you want to change.
