    The reason you're getting 404 errors on .js and other asset files is because they don't exist at the location being given. These errors won't be coming from Genesis unless you modified the core Genesis files in some way. Without seeing the actual error, it's impossible to tell. Have you tried manually adding any of the files you're getting errors for? If you can post a link to the site, it will help.

    If you want to generate a HTML table, here you go: https://www.google.com/#q=html%20table%20generator

    If you want to use the TablePress shortcode, you should be able to. How does your landing page template handle content? Does it use widgets or the WordPress content editor?

    What about the WordPress nextpage tag <!--nextpage-->? You can place it wherever you want to break your content. As this tag is a default WordPress feature, you don't even need the plugin.

    Add the hide_if_off parameter to the shortcode and set it equal to disabled. This parameter is set to enabled by default so, if comments are turned off, the link to the comments will not show.

    [post_comments zero="No Comments" one="1 Comment" more="% Comments" hide_if_off="disabled"]

    Look, the way I see it, people buy a theme for one reason, they dont know how or dont want to code. If they knew code and understood where to go in a Function.php or in a stylesheet they would just make their own website themselves not buy a wordpress theme template.

    You clearly don't understand the purpose of Genesis, or WordPress themes for that matter.

    Everyone needs a theme because a theme is what gives a WordPress website it's design and structure. Themes are not just for people who don't know how to code. Whether you use a custom theme, a theme framework like Genesis or a theme with bloated options and page builders, a theme is required.

    When you decided to use Genesis, you decided to use a lightweight theme framework with a complete hook system for customizing. It is not intended to be the type of theme you seem to need and StuidoPress certainly does not claim that it is. If you aren't comfortable with HTML/CSS and PHP, Genesis is not for you.

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    Altitude is using a bit of jQuery to add a class to the header once the user starts to scroll, which is then styled with CSS. Minimum doesn't do this by default but you can add something like Waypoints.js or just use the .scrollTop() function to give you what you're looking for.

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    By default, there isn't anything in the child theme that would have anything to do with sending email. Email is pretty much always a host thing so I'd say it's very unlikely to be a theme problem and more likely that that person didn't know what they were talking about. Go back and talk to another support tech and if you get the same answer, ask how they determined that.

    You can also try using a SMTP plugin to see if that fixes the problem or a service like Mandrill (which I use and really like).

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    The author URL uses your username because the username is unique and won't lead to conflicts with other author URLs. The best way to change it would probably be to just create a new user with a different username, delete the user with the email as a username and assign all of that user's content to the new user. If you're comfortable with editing your MySQL database, you could change it in there but you have to be careful when editing the database. Make sure to take a full backup just in case.

    That shouldn't be a problem. Just insert your content or shortcode(s) within the div tags.

    I use it on my site for some of my images and to display my service-agreement text on client invoices. While the documentation is pretty lacking, it's not too difficult to use. You choose a selector in the settings and then you insert that selector in the rel attribute of an anchor tag to run the lightbox. Some sample markup for inline content would be:

    Sorry about that. I misspoke in my last reply. I meant to say Simple Hooks, not Simple Edits.

    Personally, I would add the code to my functions.php. You likely had some sort of syntax error last time, which caused your site to break. Completely avoiding the functions.php file because of one mistake is going to make working with Genesis more difficult. I can't think of a reason for why you wouldn't have that hook available in the Simple Hooks plugin. Are you able to use FTP? Just download your functions.php file, create a backup copy, make your changes and re-upload. If anything breaks, you can restore the backup.

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    A couple things I'd point out as well:

    1. Genesis is actually more developer-focused. Sure, non-developers can use it but really customizing it requires code.

    2. Most of your customizations are done via hooks rather than directly editing theme files. As someone who has been developing full themes, this might be a bit different in terms of the concept but it's pretty straightforward. In my opinion, it's even more efficient.

    That said, I absolutely love Genesis and prefer it over creating something from scratch any day of the week. It makes things so much quicker.

    There are modal-window/lightbox plugins available that you can use to insert whatever content you want. I've used this one for various types of content:

    This design feature is not part of Genesis or any StudioPress child themes. If you're comfortable with HTML and a bit of jQuery, it can be achieved pretty easily. Otherwise, there are a lot of plugins that let you use shortcodes instead. Just search for something like "jQuery WordPress accordion".

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    I can't tell you exactly where to put the links because it depends on how you want them to appear but you'll need to add the anchor tags either inside one or both of the two divs or outside of them. For example, you could add this line just below the "Powered by..." link:

    echo '<a href="http://www.disabledveterans.org/">Link Text</a>';

    However, this won't be inside of either of those two divs and there probably won't be any styling.

    Ren Ventura
    Member

    Close. As written, that code would actually go outside the loop and you'd need to call the global $post since you're using it in the has_excerpt() conditional tag. However, has_excerpt() uses the current post if no arguments are passed so you can just leave it empty to have the same effect. But other than that, it looks good.

    January 24, 2015 at 3:04 pm in reply to: Changed the URL in settings – website broken? #138546
    Ren Ventura
    Member

    The problem is likely because you removed the /wp from both the WordPress and Site URL but your WordPress installation is not in the root directory for your domain; it's installed under the directory "/wp". The WordPress Address setting needs to be the URL to the directory your WordPress files are under. See this link for more info:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL

    To change it back, you'll need to follow the instructions for editing your wp-config.php, which overrides the settings you declare in the admin, or edit the setting in your database (among the first rows in the wp_options table).

    Just note that doing these things can mess stuff up even more if not done properly. If you're not comfortable with doing them yourself, you may want to hire a developer.
