Yes, you would add a margin-top to that widget area to pull it down from being on top of the graphic title 🙂
desireejesterMemberYes it will, providing you don't have a Featured Posts widget set up in that area. That might account for the "No posts matching that criteria" message that you are seeing.
desireejesterMemberDo you want them all on the same line and centered? Or do you want each one to have its own area but be centered within that area? There are two different fixes depending on what you want.
If you want each one centered in its own area, target which ever widget area it is on and add a margin of 0 auto to it like this:
#front-page-5 .widget-area {
margin: 0 auto;
}If you want them all lined up together and floating correctly, just add all the widgets to the same widget area and the column classes already built into Genesis should align them properly.
desireejesterMemberBecause Education Pro has a widgetized home page, you actually don't want to set it to "static home page". That will hide all of the widgets and make the homepage act like a regular WP page. You can use the tutorial in the Executive Pro theme setup (link below - look under HOME – SLIDER WIDGET AREA setup) to set the slider up to show pages with excerpts instead of posts.
desireejesterMemberCrimson Text is being used for the body font and Dosis is being used for the heading tags. To change the heading text in that section, you are going to want to target
#front-page-5 .widget-area .widget_text h2 {
font-family: "Crimson Text";
}desireejesterMemberWithin the CSS of your child theme, there should be a section under Plugins called Genesis eNews Extended. For instance, in the One Pager theme that I am working with, the code looks like this:
/* Genesis eNews Extended --------------------------------------------- */ .enews-widget { color: #999; } .enews-widget .widget-title { color: #fff; } .enews-widget input { margin-bottom: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.6rem; } .enews-widget input:focus { border: 1px solid #ddd; } .enews-widget input[type="submit"] { background-color: #f15123; color: #fff; margin: 0; width: 100%; } .enews-widget input:hover[type="submit"] { background-color: #fff; color: #333; }
To control the size of the form, you can set max height/widths to the .enews-widget class. To style the before and after form text, you can create CSS classes of your own when you write your HTML in the Before Form and After Form boxes and style them accordingly in your CSS file.
desireejesterMemberI love using the Genesis E-News Extended plugin for newsletter sign-ups. The forms it displays are prettier out of the box than the Mailchimp code. There is a spot in each instance of the widget settings to place HTML both before and after the form itself, and there are default classes for the plugin built into the Genesis theme CSS that make it super easy to style it however you would like.
desireejesterMemberCarrie Dils has a great tutorial (link below) for adding a widget area ( that she uses for a email signup form) below the navigation, but you can replace the Genesis hook to display it other places.
desireejesterMemberWhat Sridhar is referring to and what you will want to do is change the image URL in the lines of code that he wrote. This is the code you will input in your functions.php (the same code he wrote in his article) but where it says ADD_YOUR_IMAGE_URL_HERE, you will add your image URL.
'//* Remove the default header
remove_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_do_header' );//* Add custom header
add_action( 'genesis_header', 'sk_do_header' );
function sk_do_header() {echo '<img src="ADD_YOUR_IMAGE_URL_HERE" />';
}'

The site is up and running now and I am still having the issue with the #inner div. I would greatly appreciate it if you could take a peek whenever you have a chance. Thanks so much!
desireejesterMemberThat worked like a charm! Thank you so much!
