Thank you. I realized that a few hours after I sent out my question. I am using a different hosting solution and they have a weird plugin that I think throws off the caching.

Thanks for the help!

[erickawatson]

Thank you both! That was it and it's all fixed now.

I didn't realize I still had it in maintenance mode when I sent my first question out.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate the help.

Do you mean Firebug? I've tried to use that tool, but it doesn't show me. The page is http://hrhcombatarms.com/the-armory/

I am also having the same problem with another website I designed. The image is being cut off at the bottom on Microsoft products. Here is the URL for that website:

http://www.kwequine.com

It seems to be a problem with the Atmosphere Pro theme... Anyone else having this problem? I also had problems with the them blowing up my images on mobile devices in Widget Area 2.

[erickawatson]

Thank you for your response and trying to help, but I added this and it didn't change the outcome. The main image is still being cut off.

Any other ideas?

[erickawatson]

Thank you! Instead of a widget, I used the PHP code on that page to add the image. It worked beautifully, except the Title Toggle plugin wouldn't take the Blog title from the page. I used this tutorial (http://wpsites.net/web-design/hide-page-titles-from-displaying/) to remove title from the page and now it looks exactly the way I wanted.

Your website is great and I also appreciate you taking the time to help me on this forum.

Thank you for replying.

I am new to hooks, but from the page you showed, I would guess the genesis_after_header or genesis_before_content. I am not positive which position would give me the results I want, but if you could make a suggestion based upon me wanting to place an image at the top of the Blog feed before the actual posts on the blog, that would be helpful. From there, I can play with different things as you suggested on the hooks page.

Thank you again,
Ericka Watson

Update:

I'm probably just talking to myself here, but I was able to fix the issue by uninstalling the update, reinstalling the old Genesis, and then upgrading it again to the latest Genesis. I cleared my cache and it works fine. I doubt that the problem was caused by the Genesis upgrade at all, and is probably due to a plugin or the code changes I made.

[erickawatson]

Update:

I deleted genesis 2.2.3 using FTP and reinstalled 2.2.2, and I am still having the same problem with not being able to create new pages or posts because I cannot type in the body box. I can do everything else in the page creation area, including saving, adding a featured image, etc. I am assuming that something I did when I tried to add a portfolio page is the issue, but I am not sure.

[erickawatson]

Thank you. I had tried that before and it wasn't working, but I figured out that I was using the wrong url. I appreciate your help!

Hello,

I had the same question about how to add an image to the header background, but obviously no one helped you with it here. I saw that you managed to do this ... can you share how you made the change? It looks great...

[erickawatson]

Hi Susan,

I have the same question about using the static page and getting the featured image to display. Can you give a little more detail about how to create a widget and use it for the featured image? It seems from the theme setup instructions you should just be able to set your featured image on the page and it will appear on the homepage as it should with posts.

Thanks!

Okay, to the best of my recollection, this is what I did...

First, I changed the CSS. The main changes were to the the title area width = 400 and the .header-image .site-title a became 124px, the size of my image. Next I changed the theme functions to reflect the changes. For the floating navigation on the top right, I created a custom menu and use the header right widget within the theme. I copied the CSS and the Theme Functions text that I changed:

/* Title Area
--------------------------------------------- */

.title-area {
float: left;
padding: 18px 0;
width: 400px;
}

.header-image .title-area {
padding: 0;
}

.site-title {
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
font-size: 24px;
line-height: 1;
margin: 0;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

.site-title a,
.site-title a:hover {
border: none;
color: #333;
}

.site-description {
font-size: 36px;
font-weight: 300;
line-height: 1.2;
margin: 0;
}

/* Full width header, no widgets */

.header-full-width .title-area,
.header-full-width .site-title {
width: 100%;
}

.header-image .site-title a {
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
}

/* Custom header */

.header-image .title-area {
padding: 0;
}

.header-image .site-title a {
height: 124px;
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
max-width: 400px;
}

/* Widget Area
--------------------------------------------- */

.site-header .widget-area {
float: right;
text-align: right;
width: 800px;
}

.site-header .search-form {
float: right;
margin-top: 10px;
}

/*

(The theme functions says "DO not change," so please change this only at your own risk)
//* Add support for custom header
add_theme_support( 'custom-header', array(
'width' => 400,
'height' => 124,
'header-selector' => '.site-title a',
'header-text' => false
) );

Sorry I didn't reply right away, as I replied to another person, I played around and got it to work, so I will have to go back in to see exactly what I did to make it work and get back to you in a little bit.

Thanks for the compliment - I am glad you like the logo!

Hi Mark,

Sorry I didn't reply right away. The truth is a played around a bit and got it to work and need to go back and look at what I did. I'll send a more detailed reply in a day or so if you are still interested.
