    Regarding the [...] at the end of the excerpt, can I add a Read More somewhere?

    Also, I pasted in the code that was sent to me privately but I can’t reply...it has a nopreply email address. I need to tell the person that it worked on mobile but not on the desktop version. The line is one line and doesn’t break after “discusses” on the desktop version.

    Can anyone help me with this? I tried using the code <h1 style="font-size:200%;">Grief, Candor, and Love</h1> in the block where the heading is as additional CSS but it didn’t work. I don’t want the headings this big on the other pages but want the heading a bit bigger on the front page. I want to reduce the headings on the other pages and make the heading on the front page bigger by a percentage but it is not working.

    Regarding this in that link...

    When using the excerpt feature WordPress does not automatically provide a link to a page containing the full post. To generate a link include the following code in the loop directly below <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

    "> Read More...

    There is a link in the title which goes to the full-length post article. I guess that’s what the [...] means is that there is more and it’s truncated content. Yes I added a content limit in the Genesis settings of 140 characters.

    The photo is not showing up on the blog even though I specified to make the photo aligned left.

    Also, I have a question. The blog page is just a summary of everything that has been written in other sections correct? That’s why I chose the Blog template...so that everything that is written will be recorded here on this blog page and nothing has to be entered. If I set it up as just another page, it would not record the entries here am I right?

    Thanks for your help Terry!

    Ok that worked! But there is a [...] at the end of the paragraphs. How do I get rid of it or is something supposed to go there?

    Also, I would like to make the H1 headings on the other pages smaller but if I do, then the heading on the front page looks too small. Can I add an additional CSS code to the front page to make it a larger percentage of H1? If so, what would that code be and can I add it to the Additional CSS section of this heading block?

    Thanks Tanya but I found an easier way to do it. I added the Advanced Rich Text Tools for Gutenberg and that allowed me to change it easily without knowing code. This should have been written into the program to make it easier for designers in my opinion. I have spoken to StudioPress about it and they agreed. The person who created this plugin actually was a contributor to Gutenberg. Why he didn’t suggest to add this to the program I’ll never know. Anyway, I made the suggestion so StudioPress will follow through.

    Ok this worked:

    .sidebar {
    padding-top: 115px;
    }


    @media
    only screen and (max-width: 1023px) {
    .sidebar {
    padding-top: 0;
    }
    }

    I changed the 50px value to 115px and the photo moved down to be level with the other photo. Thanks for your support Terry!

    So should it be this Terry:

    .sidebar {
    padding-top: 50px;
    }


    @media
    only screen and (max-width: 1023px) {
    .sidebar {
    padding-top: 0;
    }
    }

    I did that already...but I got this..

    element {
    text-align: left;
    }
    h1 {
    font-size: 36px;
    font-size: 3.6rem;
    }
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    font-weight: 500;
    line-height: 1.5;
    }

    The color is inherited from the body but these lines are crossed off:

    body {
    color: #000;
    font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    font-size: 18px;
    font-size: 1.8rem;
    font-weight: 400;
    line-height: 1.875;
    }

    What do I paste the body code in the additional CSS, the whole thing...
    then change the #000 to the color of my choice?

    Hi Terry. I am getting this error that says..“Markup is not allowed in CSS.There are 15 errors which must be fixed before you can save.” It won’t let me publish this code under Additional CSS unfortunately. What should I do now?

    I know it’s the code you posted because when I took it off, I was able to publish it so I am not sure what is wrong with that code or why I can’t publish it.

    It’s present on a post page:

    Journal Entry

    It’s the white box that is jutting into the photograph. I want that white box only about an inch into the photo so it doesn’t cover most of the photo or without that design at all and just having the large photo with the heading underneath.

    K that worked. Also, I added the correct sized sharp photograph so that it will show up properly at the top. But what my client doesn’t like is the square cutting into the photograph. How do I get rid of that as well? So the issue was both the avatar and the square cutting into the photo

    Victor what do you mean by “comment out this line?” Delete it? Will this delete the photo too or just the avatar? Is there a way I can set up my own template where I can put a different photo per post at the top the same size that is on this post? These demo photos are pretty blurry and they don’t look good even as demo photos.

    I found a pagination plugin that is different...Pagination by Websoft. It has a horizontal scroll with no boxes just numbers which is different. I will try that one.

    I used Page Links Plus for more options on previous jobs but you have to pay $10 for all options. I just wondered if there were any elaborate free pagination plugins that offered more options. It’s pretty basic. What I don’t like about just having Page: 1, 2, 3 etc. is that you can’t go previous and next. They do have the code in this link for that though I see.
