Hi Brad, thanks for getting back to me. I found the static front page php file which has the seven pages with their separate markups but I didn't see anything involving widget-thirds as seen below in the source code.
front page php:
genesis_widget_area( 'front-page-2', array(
'before' => '<div id="front-page-2" class="front-page-2"><div class="solid-section flexible-widgets widget-area fadeup-effect' . infinity_widget_area_class( 'front-page-2' ) . '"><div class="wrap">',
'after' => '</div></div></div>',
) );source code
<div id="front-page-2" class="front-page-2">
<div class="solid-section flexible-widgets widget-area fadeup-effect widget-thirds fadInUp">How is the widget-thirds called up for each of the pages?
Hi Victor, sorry this is what is actually there:
<div class="content-box"><i class="ion-ios-chatboxes-outline" style="font-size: 96px;"></i>

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, theous illusma minous consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</div>
and you can see it works now. Thanks for noticing my syntax mistake.
Hi Victor,
Thanks for commenting on my question. Actually what I posted was not used. Here is what is on the site:<div class="content-box"><i class="ion-ios-chatboxes-outline" style="font-size; 96px"></i>

and you can see that the inline style does not work. There is probably better way to deal with what I want to happen and I think someone out there knows the answer. Hopefully I will hear soon.

The slider needs javascript to run and also a path to a folder that will be in the main directory that has more javascript, style sheet, and files needed for the slider.
There are many things you can change on the StudioPress themes. You can change the item you are talking about editing the style.css file. You will need to learn CSS probably more than PHP. A little PHP would be helpful though. You can also learn a lot form this blog where I have found many solutions for helpful individuals.
To also help a couple of programs to edit CSS and PHP would be Sublime Text which will let you know if you are writing incorrect code. It works with CSS and PHP. Also get the developer tool for Chrome that will show the source code and let you try out edits to find out what you need to change to achieve the results you are looking for. With those programs you will be able to test edits of your sites source files and apply what you have found to your site to get the look you want.
Lastly be very careful when you edit files. You can crash the site if you make syntax errors. Always have a back up and FTP access to your site to restore what you did.
Category pages? Do you mean blog pages Category? It you should be in the tool bar on the right of the dashboard.
I don't do much graphic design print anymore. I use the skills I learned in 40 years of graphic design to use in websites. I started creating websites using Dreamweaver and learning basic HTML. It was a steep learning curve. When WordPress came along I jumped on the band wagon. It allowed me the freedom to spend more time creating and less time trying to deal with coding problems and also allow me to create the sites that I have always wanted.
Lastly, my business site is written in .asp and I have yet to turn it into a WordPress site. Crazy how that works.
Good luck.Keith Watling
Watling DesignDear ToniSchulk, speaking as an ex-graphic designer and art director I would not use standard sizes as you have asked about for a number of reasons. I used to eye ball everything and go with my gut instincts. Image sizes to me depend on what your website's mission will be. Retail requires big explosive images your corporate/BB site uses more understated image sizes as well as composition. Don't paint yourself into a corner with a rigid preprogramed sizes allow for flexibility. Think of your monitor's aspect ratio and go from there.
Thanks JPJP9, I am not familiar with this attribute. What does max-width: $logo-width; and width: $logo-width; mean? Does this represent a percentage of width? If I remove this attribute will that fix the problem and how with the logo work in mobile mode?
JPJP9 thanks for your post. I have the functions.php set at 400px x 120px as well as the .header-image css. The customize site header image shows these attributes in the suggested size and the cropping function but when you have done the task the logo is still at roughly 80px. Is there some other attribute that I have missed? I have gone back to the logo I had before because the site is live.
Since this is a live site I can't leave the site with half a logo. The logo you see is 234px x 80px which is much smaller than I wanted. I would still like to see if any of you have an idea what might be happening. http://milwaukeeguitarschool.com
Thanks, KeithI used your code and got a new default in the customize section but not the size I specified in the functions.php created a similar problem.
//* Add support for custom header
add_theme_support( 'custom-header', array(
'width' => 500,
'height' => 300,
'header-selector' => '.site-title a',
'header-text' => false,
'flex-height' => true,I used an image that was 429px x 150 that should fit. You can see what happened http://milwaukeeguitarschool.com I measured the area created using a screen shot in Photoshop which measures 401px x 81px. Any idea what is going on?
I measure theThere is currently no logo in header. I couldn't get the one I wanted installed. What you see is the site title.
Thank you Victor, Your posting worked. I will remember this feature for future sites I create with Studiopress.
Thanks, braddalton. I used the link to find the code to take care of my issue and it worked like a charm. Thanks to all the rest of you for your responses.
EastsideKeithBrad, thank you for your post. I went to your site and couldn't find a solution to edit text in the search box. I saw some things about placeholder text but nothing on my situation. Did I search you site using the wrong query? Your thoughts?
KeithThe second and third footer widgets areas have a widget in each. What you see live in the footer area is the Genesis Footer Builder which has a copyright line and some social logos.
One item. If you do take on this task the professional logos in the header will be moved to the footer. Please let me know if you are interested. Thanks, Keith
Thanks for looking into this situation. I didn't think there was a simple solution. I noticed that you have a business WP Repair. Would you consider fixing the problem and if so how much to do the work?
Since the last time we spoke my client has come to their senses and wants the utility menu (the second menu with search box, professional logos below the main nav) to be responsive and break and stack instead of being one line hanging off the page. In our last discussion you mentioned this issue as a possible problem. I have looked at the source code and could't find a way to accomplish this task. I believe I have painted myself into a corner. Is there a way out of this? Here's the site: http://www.jnwhitedesignserver.com/ Thanks for your insights.
