buddy_boy8403Participant
jjham - what is your sites URL?
buddy_boy8403ParticipantNothing there was done with custom coding. I used the Genesis Featured Widget Amplified plugin and set the page I wanted to pull in, set the image to show the homepage size (genesis automatically makes the images rectangular) and then if the widget title was too long, I would use a text widget in between to add breaks to get the spacing to line up. I also used the content limit 270 characters or something like that. That automatically pulls in the first 270 characters of the page text.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantIf that doesn't work, try taking out the featured post widget and hard coding it in with a text widget like you did with all the rest.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantIt looks like you are using the featured post widget for the last part of the home middle 3. Try adding this at the very end of your style.css file:
div#featured-post-7.widget {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}buddy_boy8403ParticipantActually, by making the logo fixed, it moves as you scroll down the page. Any other ideas?
See my second reply.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantOops - it's getting late, forgot the link: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_div_align.asp
buddy_boy8403ParticipantFor some reason I can't type the align center code in here... so I'm sending you a link. In the code box on the linked page, copy line 1 and put it in front of the current code in the text widget. Then copy the code from line 3 and put it at the end of your current code in the text widget. That should center them for you.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantSorry - it's getting late and my eyes are getting tired. That is not what you want. The code above will make your logo scroll along with the page - you want this instead:
.header-image #title-area, .header-image #title-area #title, .header-image #title-area #title a {
display: block;
float: left;
height: 60px;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
text-indent: -9999px;
top: 60px;
width: 320px;
}buddy_boy8403ParticipantYou could try modifying the below in your child theme's style.css file on line 127:
.header-image #title-area, .header-image #title-area #title, .header-image #title-area #title a {
display: block;
float: left;
height: 60px;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 0;
position: fixed;
text-indent: -9999px;
top: 98px;
width: 320px;

buddy_boy8403ParticipantIn addition, you may want to increase the top margin to add some spacing above the whole box. To do this, modify '.enews-widget' on line 2,693 to:
margin: 50px 10% 0;
buddy_boy8403ParticipantYou need to edit the padding on '.enews' in wp-content/themes/adorable/style.css on line 2,703 to:
padding: 45px 120px 40px;
buddy_boy8403ParticipantThen try adding this to your functions.php file. Don't remove the one you just put in there from your functions.php file in case later on down the road you wanted to use it. Just don't drag any widgets to that sidebar:
/** Start Add Sidebar Before Post */
// First we have to register the new sidebar
genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id' => 'before-posts-sidebar',
'name' => 'Before Posts Ad Area',
'description' => 'This is a sidebar that goes before the post content.',
) );
// Next we have to display the sidebar
add_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'child_before_posts_sidebar' );
/** Loads a new sidebar before the posts in the #content */
function child_before_posts_sidebar() {
// Now we add the conditional to show this everywhere except the home page by putting an ! in front of is_home()
// For more info about conditional tags, see: http://designsbynickthegeek.com/tutorials/conditional-page-content
if (is_single() ) {
echo '
';
dynamic_sidebar( 'before-posts-sidebar' );
echo '
';
}
}
// Finally we need to style the sidebar in the child theme's style.css file
/** End Add Sidebar Before Post */buddy_boy8403ParticipantYou need to make the image 960x115. Within that image, you can make the logo smaller and position it left, but the entire size needs to be 960x115.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantDid you pull in a text widget and paste the ad code in the widget area? If so, try encasing your ad code in this:
<div class="below-header-ad-banner">
..... ad code here.....
</div>Then add the following to the bottom of you theme's style.css file:
.below-header-ad-banner .widget-wrap {
padding: 10px;
}buddy_boy8403ParticipantI like it. How did you get the home middle section to tile like that?
buddy_boy8403ParticipantThey do take up the full width. Change the widget image sizes to homepage (270 x 80).
buddy_boy8403ParticipantI've never messed with repositioning the middle widgets, but I think it's going to be more work that what you would want to do. There are basically three widgets in the home middle section and with those, you can add a whole bunch of items in line vertically, which usually looks very nice (see a recent site I did: http://www.justwright4design.com/
Creating a brick pattern would requite two additional middle sidebars (widget areas) and css styling on those sidebars. If this is something you really have to do to make your client happy, and I was doing it, I would copy the home middle widget code out of your functions.php file and duplicate it twice in the same area in the file. Rename the applicable parts so that you call them something unique. Then find the styling rules in the style.css file and make the mods to resize the width of those items. You should be able to make them look staggered like bricks.
buddy_boy8403ParticipantWhat is the link to you site?
buddy_boy8403ParticipantCan you post a link to your site? I did this for a customer a couple months ago with the Enterprise theme by commenting out the CSS. I liked doing it this way because if they ever decided they wanted to use the slider in the future, all I had to do was uncomment the styling and it's good to go again. Go into the Enterprise style.css file and make the following changes:
I basically commented out everything in the css file from 'Home Top' on down (it starts around line 627). Below is a copy of what I did so feel free to paste this into your file by overwriting everything in the Home Top section:
/* Home Top
------------------------------------------------------------ */
/* Image replaced with CSS by: #home-top .wrap
#home-top-bg {
background: url(images/home-top.png);
}
#home-top {
background: url(images/top-black-dimple.png);
background-repeat: repeat;
float: left;
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
#home-top .wrap {
background-color: #000;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 9px;
width: 100%;
height: 180px;
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
left: 0px;
z-index: -1;
}
#home-top a,
#home-top a:visited {
color: #fff;
text-decoration: underline;
}
#home-top a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
}
#home-top p {
color: #fff;
}
.home-top-1 {
background: url(images/top-black-dimple.png) left repeat-y;
float: left;
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
.home-top-1 .widget {
margin: 0;
padding: 20px;
}
.home-top-2 {
float: right;
height: 235px;
width: 600px;
margin-top: -50px;
}*/ -
