Hi John,
I think this tutorial will point you in the right direction.
I´ll have to take a look at the eleven-40 pro theme for your first question.
Hi Tom,
I´m glad you found a solution.
Sorry that I wasn´t able to help you solve the original problem.Thanks for the link to the elegantthemes icons. I´ll have to try them sometime soon.
Hi Tim,
.
sorry it is not working for you.I just tried it again with the genesis sample theme and realized that I had to add the <div class> in the text/html tab. It wouldn´t work in the visual tab.
I copied the whole style.css that I got from fontastic into the style.css of the genesis (child) theme.
Then I created a fonts folder in the (child) theme folder and copied the .eot, .svg, .ttf and .woff files into it.
Hi lacho,
You could test the sidebar widgets and see if one of them is causing trouble.
Check if you have closed all html-, php-, css-code that you put in text-widgets and/or style.css and functions.php.
You have a bunch of js-scripts running, maybe there´s a conflict with them.
Have you updated wordpress, plugins, genesis?Christoph
Hi John,
sorry for my delay in responding. I didn´t get a notification that you responded to the topic from the forum...
I see you changed to the eleven-pro theme.
Looks great!If you have any questions, please don´t hesitate to ask.

Hi,
to change the color of the font you can edit the style.css.
Around line 129 you find the following code:
body { color: #333; font-family: Lato,sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 1.625; }To make the font black change it to
color: #000;
and/or you can increase the font-weight.Headlines can be adjusted around line 221 the same way as above.
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { color: #333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1.2; margin: 0 0 10px; }
Hi,
around line 357 of the style.css you'll findinput, select, textarea { background-color: #FFF; border: 1px solid #DDD; border-radius: 0px; color: #777; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 1; padding: 20px; width: 100%; }Change the
widthto the percentage that looks good to you.
If you wanted to change the height of the box, you can adjustline-height.Caution, those changes will affect all input fields.
To only affect the search box, you could try to add something like
.cse-search-box .input { width: 50%; line-height: 2; }to the style.css .
Hi,
since it´s on a local install troubleshooting is a bit tricky 😉
Can you check in the style.css around line 1665
a.more-link, .more-from-category a {
if the value for display looks like this?
display: table;This is what the whole section looks like on a new install for me:
a.more-link, .more-from-category a { background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% #F5F5F5; color: #010101; display: table; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 600; letter-spacing: 2px; padding: 3px 8px; text-decoration: none; text-transform: uppercase; }
Hi,
I like your design!
You can increase the content area (content width) by adjusting two things in the style.css:
Increase the value for width around line 435
.content(right now it sayswidth: 760px;) and
decrease the value for width around line 452.sidebar-primary(width: 240px;).If you add 40 in the first, subtract 40 in the second, etc...
Be careful to keep the sidebar wide enough for your content there.
Hi,
I got it showing with the following tweaks to style.css:
1. Adjust the padding-top in .site-header around line 818. (I reduced it to 20px)
2. Adjust the margin-bottom in .header-widget-area .widget around line 884. (I reduced it to 0px)
3. Adjust the padding in .site-footer around line 1250. (I reduced it to 10px 16px)Hope it works for you.

Hi,
I see that you adjusted your code a bit and it looks like it is working.
But wow, that´s a long list and a long way to scroll to the end of the menu...
Hi,
around line 1194 of the style.css you'll find the home-section settings.You'll probably have to separate home-section-1 from 3 and 5 and then
change the background-position 0px value to your liking. (not sure if you have to add!important)If the mobile view is affected negatively, check the @media settings starting around line 1832.
The slider shows up fine for me.
When I click on Home in the navigation, I´m getting a 404 error for http://kirksville.wpengine.com/?page_id=30.
You'd have to update the link in your menu settings.
You are welcome. I´m glad I could help.
Just want to cover some things first 🙂
You only added this part of the code to the functions.php?
//* Modify the length of post excerpts add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'sp_excerpt_length' ); function sp_excerpt_length( $length ) { return 50; // pull first 50 words }Make sure you didn't accidentally paste the code inside another function, filter or action.
If I´m understanding you correctly, you are want to remove the "standard" archive page and "replace" it with a regular page that includes shortcodes?
Maybe this can point you in the right direction:

Hi,
1. To reduce the white space after the "slider widget"
change/reduce the value of the padding-top around line 1403 of the style.css
That's what it looks like now:.home-widgets .widget:first-child { padding-top: 140px; }2. To reduce the "green space" after the slider, change the padding around line 1448 of the style.css
This is what the code looks like now:
.home-featured .home-widgets-1 { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; width: 100%; padding: 200px 0px; font-size: 20px; }Change the padding to something like this:
padding: 200px 0px 100px 0px;Adjust the 100px to size the "green space" after the slider to your liking.
This is what the new code would look like:
.home-featured .home-widgets-1 { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; width: 100%; padding: 200px 0px 100px 0px; font-size: 20px; }Hope this helps!
Christoph
Looks like you figured it all out. Great job!
