ParticipantPerfect! Thank you so much!
March 7, 2019 at 9:57 pm in reply to: Can I use a slider shortcode for Essence Pro header background? #489899brightisland
ParticipantOk... I'm resurrecting this old thread because even though no one answered here, I had a workaround that I hired someone to code for me to use the Soliloquy slider instead of the Revolution slider, but it turns out I'm definitely going to need the Rev slider because of the Ken Burns effect (which apparently Soliloquy is incapable of doing). My client really wants the images to zoom in and out as they transition.
I only want this slider as the BACKGROUND in the hero section on the homepage. The rest of the pages of the site will use the regular featured images in the hero area.
Can anyone give me advice on how to accomplish this? If not, can I hire someone to do this for a reasonable price?

ParticipantThank you so much! I deactivated the plugin that apparently someone else had installed in the site. It never occurred to me that it could be causing these issues. I'll try to troubleshoot that plugin in a different installation. 🙂

ParticipantJust chiming in to say I LOATHE not being able to just do a basic Cmd+F search through my stylesheets to make changes. I decided to pop over here just to see if anyone else was talking about it, or if anyone else knew of a fix in the works.
I hope they'll provide an option to use it the way we've all been doing it for years. I appreciate these safeguards for newbies, but some of us have been doing this for years and years and we really don't need this kind of hand-holding.

ParticipantAwesome! Perfect! This is exactly what I needed. 🙂
Thanks so much.

ParticipantI would like to know how to set the posts displayed on the home page of Education Pro to only one category, as well.
The posts displayed have nothing to do with a widget.
Please advise.
Thank you!

ParticipantI know what you mean! 🙂
Personally, I recommend Brad Dalton. I've hired him to do little things for me before and he's a big help.
This is his website, but of course he's on the forums, too:

ParticipantUnfortunately, I have searched and searched through the plugin but I cannot find the other location where you tell it to display the fourth button. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.
brightisland
ParticipantI think there may be another file to tweak code, but I can't find it at the moment. :-\
Let me know if the above works or doesn't and I'll try to come back to this with a better answer tomorrow, if necessary.

ParticipantYou need to add one more array to this in the plugin file genesis-author-pro/classes/class.Genesis_Author_Pro_Book_Meta.php. It will have three, but you need to add a fourth.
array( 'name' => 'button_1', 'label' => __( 'Button 1', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'description' => __( 'This will create a button on the book page that can be used as a link for purchase, download, etc.', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'type' => 'button', ), array( 'name' => 'button_2', 'label' => __( 'Button 2', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'description' => __( 'This will create a button on the book page that can be used as a link for purchase, download, etc.', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'type' => 'button', ), array( 'name' => 'button_3', 'label' => __( 'Button 3', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'description' => __( 'This will create a button on the book page that can be used as a link for purchase, download, etc.', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'type' => 'button', ), array( 'name' => 'button_4', 'label' => __( 'Button 4', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'description' => __( 'This will create a button on the book page that can be used as a link for purchase, download, etc.', 'genesis-author-pro' ), 'type' => 'button', ),

ParticipantIt involves tweaking the php in the actual Author Pro plugin. The only problem with that is that you'd have to redo the tweak whenever there is an update to the plugin (as far as I know.)
I decided against doing it for that very reason. Do you still want to know how, though?
brightisland
ParticipantJust wanted to update... I've figured out how to update the code, but now we're thinking we'll keep it simpler and stick with the available button areas.
May 8, 2015 at 1:36 pm in reply to: Splitting the Parallax Pro footer widgets area into multiple columns #150994brightisland
ParticipantI have made a lot of modifications to the stylesheet, although I don't remember making any modifications to functions.php.
I'm continually tweaking the stylesheet, but I'm happy to e-mail you the files as they are now. I'm pretty decent with CSS, but as far as PHP goes, I know just enough to be dangerous. 😀
My e-mail is [email protected] so you can go ahead and e-mail me there and I'll respond with the files. I'm assuming you just need the stylesheet and functions.php, right?
Thank you!

ParticipantI think three columns would be sufficient. Thank you!
And I'm happy to donate, by the way.

ParticipantI've seen things about using is_front_page(), but I'm not sure how would i use the conditional tag with the Genesis Simple Hooks? Or am I even able to create a conditional within a hook?
January 15, 2015 at 2:47 pm in reply to: Need solution ideas for manual control of access to individual forums #137593brightisland
ParticipantThanks for the response, Ren.
As it turns out, I ended up finding another solution — a plugin called bbP private groups by Robin Wilson. It allows for groups to be created and then for a private forum to be assigned to a group. Then you can put members in the groups and they will have access to the specific forum.
It looks like it will work for now, but I will look into Restrict Content Pro, as it might be a better option in the long run.

ParticipantJust wanted to say that Sridhar's css fix worked for me. I just had to add !important before the ; on each line, like this:
/* META INFO TWEAK */ .content .entry-header .entry-meta .entry-time { margin-right: 0 !important; padding-right: 15px !important; }
July 1, 2014 at 1:11 pm in reply to: How do I set home page widget areas on additional pages in OUTREACH PRO? #112489brightisland
ParticipantAnother question -- and this is specific to your tutorial.
Why is the theme no longer recognizing Content-Sidebar as the theme default for posts?
I only want these widget areas on pages, but for some reason, even when I try to set the theme default layout to Content-Sidebar in Genesis theme settings, it keeps going back to full width.
Or maybe the better question is, how would I fix this issue? I am really pretty ignorant on tweaking php.

ParticipantSorry I'm slow to respond to this. Just started working on this project again a couple of days ago.
I found your tutorial on this topic, and it is really helpful.
I'm only left with one question -- and this was the case on the home page before I ever even implemented your code tweaks -- but why does the four-across layout only seem to work when using the Genesis Featured Page widget, but not other widgets? Is that an issue with my CSS? I'd like to use the Image Widget to use four widgets across the page as big image buttons to go to category pages. Is there a way to do that?
Thank you so much for your help!
