I'm using the block editor. That link is the code snippet I tried but it doesn't seem to be working for me.

I ended up just making a widget and displaying it above the loop for the blog page. That worked. 🙂

Thanks!

Awesome, thank you so much!

[carrieoke13]

I just figured it out! I had to comment out

unregister_sidebar( 'sidebar-alt' );

as well.

Thanks so much!

[carrieoke13]

Just to be clear - this is the code I tried removing from the functions file:

genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-content-sidebar' );

Thanks!

Thanks, Victor. I tried this before I posted, and it caused this error: "This site is having technical difficulties - please check your site admin email."

Is there anywhere else that code needs to be deleted in order to make it work?

[carrieoke13]

Thanks, Victor, that is helpful.

[carrieoke13]

The reason I posted here is because I know that the header is called in a different way than in other WordPress themes and I thought someone else might have had the same issue. I'm not an idiot.

Thanks for the helpful response.

So, I had forgotten to turn off one plugin: Akismet. It seems to be working now. I guess that could've been the culprit?

[carrieoke13]

Thanks, Victor. Do you have any suggestions for figuring out where they are coming from? I have turned off all the plugins.

[carrieoke13]

hmm. have you tried a plugin like Regenerate Thumbnails to see if it would fix the issue?

[carrieoke13]

This is the code I used and it used to work with Minimum Pro - it's pretty similar to yours:

//*get first image

function catch_that_image() {
  global $post, $posts;
  $first_img = '';
  ob_start();
  ob_end_clean();
  $output = preg_match_all('/<img.+src=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"].*>/i', $post->post_content, $matches);
  $first_img = $matches[1][0];

  if(empty($first_img)) {
    $first_img = "/path/to/default.png";
  }
  return $first_img;
}

This tutorial also looks promising: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-set-a-default-fallback-image-for-wordpress-post-thumbnails/

I did! I kept trying different locations until one of them worked 🙂 Here's what worked:

add_action( 'genesis_before', 'gray_hr', 15 );
function gray_hr () {
	echo '<hr class="logged-out-subnav">';
}

Thanks 🙂

It's on your style sheet, under Sidebars, line 1884. You need to comment out this code:

.sidebar ul li:before {
content: "0BB 020";
padding-right: 7px;
}

Ren , or anyone else, I am trying to add onto this and show the child pages of the child pages (and thumbnails of all). What would I add to this query to make that happen? or would it be a separate query?

Thanks!
Carrie

[carrieoke13]

Thank you both! I will try this.

[carrieoke13]

Thanks, Brad! I couldn't figure out how to make the grid posts go away, but removing front-page.php worked.

[carrieoke13]

Thanks 🙂

[carrieoke13]

Thank you, Carlo! This works beautifully.

Okay! I have found a solution, and frankly, I have no idea why it works, but someone had another problem and posted about it in the comments here: http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/add-custom-post-types-to-tags-and-categories-in-wordpress/#comment-153788

Here's what I did: I replaced

// Get all your post types
$post_types = array('post' , 'articles');

in the above code with

$post_types = array( 'nav_menu_item','articles', 'news' );

and magically, my menu is back!

thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction!

[carrieoke13]

Okay, I found the culprit, but I'm not sure how to edit it to fix the issue.

This code adds my custom post types to tags and categories:

//add custom post type to tags and categories
function add_custom_types_to_tax( $query ) {
if( is_category() || is_tag() && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {

// Get all your post types
$post_types = array('post' , 'articles');

$query->set( 'post_type', $post_types );
return $query;
}
}
add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'add_custom_types_to_tax' );

When I comment it out, the menu reappears on my category archives, but all my custom post types that are in that category don't appear on the page anymore. Help!
