The solution to this issue is to create main NAV Menu items without links to site pages and then to create submenu items for the NAV Menu that will link to the site pages. Here is what I did:
1. Go to Appearance..Menus
2. Select the Main Navigation Menu
3. Select Links
4. In the URL Field replace "http://" with the hash tag "#"
5. In the Link Text Field, I typed "About"
6. Click on Add to MenuWhat this does is create a Menu Item called "About" that does not link to any of the pages in the site.
The final steps in the process is to drag and drop the new About menu item to its proper location in the Nav Menu hierarchy and then to drag the original About Nav Menu item into a sub-menu position just below the new About menu item.
Don't forget to save the menu changes.
If you go to Frontier-Village.com and place your cursor over the About menu item...it will NOT link to the About page. However, just below it is the actual About page link, which I renamed "Frontier Village."
Viola!
e-PartnerMemberProblem solved...duhhhh!!!
e-PartnerMemberThanks...I have not yet been into BP and WPMU. Is the install of WPMU a precursor to the install of BP?
e-PartnerMemberThanks for this idea. The header design concept I have in mind does not involve any adjustments to the header height.
See this: http://commercialwebpage.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/cwp-header-design-concept.jpg
Although there are a few adjustments I need to make to the graphic design elements, this is essentially the concept. I would like to simply code-in the graphic element above the actual text.
Thanks for your efforts!
e-PartnerMemberYes, that worked. But the real culprit is the Google font, as follows:
*@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=play); this renders out at 'play' throughout the style sheet.
Therefore, I did a global replace of the term "'play'" with "Trebuchet MS" throughout the style sheet. Many thanks!
e-PartnerMemberWhere would you suggest I stick that snippet? I havc replaced all of the font attributes throughout the CSS. Thanks for your input.
e-PartnerMemberFixed...it was a caching problem.
e-PartnerMemberOoops, forgot the link to the site...my apology. the new build is located at http://www.commercialwebpage.net.
The solution works...I took the blow padding to zero px and that allows the paragraph to space normally.
Many thanks...I just could not locate it!
e-PartnerMemberTried it again and no go...the insertion of the video appears above the Digital Content Gallery slideshow.
Here's my insertion:
<?php if (is_home() ) { ?><div><iframe width="599" height="337" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HPrHdngEpRw?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div><?php } ?>
Puzzling...
e-PartnerMemberJust so I am clear, when you tested the following in the "genesis_before_content Hook", with the YouTube <iframe> inserted, you found it successful?
<?php
if
(is_home() ) { ?>
<div><iframe> youtube video embed code</iframe></div>
<?php } ?>
Also are you checking the boxes below the code that reference the pHp and Hook generation?
Thanks!
e-PartnerMemberJust removed the YouTube <iframe> from the top and you will see I have left it at the bottom until I figure this monster out. I might have to hard core it into the Editor, but don't really like to do that.
e-PartnerMemberPlatinum Child Theme running on the Genesis Framework.
e-PartnerMemberI have also inserted the code into the genesis_before_content Hook, which logically sends it to the bottom.
e-PartnerMemberHere is where the view of the video in the genesis_before_content Hook location. http://www.Frontier-Villge.com.
e-PartnerMemberThanks...although I have tested the locations repeatedly, I'll give the new code a whirl in your suggested location and let you know. 🙂
e-PartnerMemberWhere is that nice solution going to be inserted in the Simple Hooks framework?
e-PartnerMemberSteve...no go. If I put the <iframe> into "Before Content Hook" it is at the top and the sidebar is pushed down.
If I put the <iframe> into "After Content Hook" it is at the bottom.
The position I want it to be in is right after the slide show on the Index page and before the posts. I might to use the Editor but I hope not. Love the hooks!
Thanks for any help you can give me.
e-PartnerMemberSteve...I'll give this a try and reply back. THX
