MemberHehehehe ... so @Christoph went for the text ... and I went for the background image 🙂

MemberIf - by transparent - you mean faded, you can use the following CSS:
#front-page-2 { opacity: 0.m; } #front-page-4 { opacity: 0.n; }
... where - broadly speaking - m and n can be any numeric value ranging from 1 to 9 ... thus making the opacity value 0.5 or 0.8 ...
Is that what you're looking for?

MemberAre there any videos or tutorials that could clearly help us better understand all of this?
You may need to do a lot of Googling to find the right video for where you are at 🙂
... with wanting to use a Genesis theme, possibly, does it involve coding at all?
It doesn't have to involve any coding ... but most people end up having to do something of some sort at some stage. It really all depends on your specific set of requirements.
You need to ask yourself if self-hosted WordPress is really what you need ... whereas wordpress.com is always an option ...
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberThere are two ways to achieve this.
Firstly: Genesis -> Theme Settings -> Content Archives -> set "Select one of the following:" to Display post exercpts. The same thing can be achieved by going to Appearance -> Customize -> Content Archives. You would then need to add an excerpt to each of your posts ... although by the sounds of things, you probably have that set up already.
or ...
Secondly: In each of your posts, add
<!--more-->
inside your content area to mark the cutoff point.

MemberNo problem ... here to help as much as I possibly can 🙂

MemberThe typical WordPress way to do this is as follows:
- add a Custom Link to your menu navigation for “RESTAURANTS”, then set the URL to #
- add the desired pages as sub-menu options

MemberWell ... the problem code has gone ... and given that comments appear on other posts on your site - but not the ability to leave a comment - I'm thinking you may not have comments enabled. That could be something in your custom theme, or they are not selected in the usual admin dashboard places.

MemberIf you want to move the category to the top of an article/above the article title, this could be achieved with CSS:
(1) ensure the article container has position: relative;
(2) the categories container (if you have one) could be set to position: absolute;top: 0;Something along those lines anyway ...

MemberYes ... but ... @Kellylise is right ... it's not a direct replacement to the Genesis Design Palette Pro plugin.
Have a read at this: http://www.carriedils.com/genesis-design-palette-pro-vs-genesis-extender/

MemberIf you need to customize an existing Genesis child theme - and you want to use the products from CobaltApps - you'll need the Genesis Extender plugin.
The Dynamic Website Builder is used to build a Genesis theme from scratch.

MemberOff the top of my head ... and since you would like to remain anonymous:
Firstly, check the Exclude user from Author-sitemap box, which you get to via the Users option.
Secondly, add the following code to your functions.php file:
remove_action('genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_do_author_box_single', 8);
Thirdly, click here to see how to modify the genesis_post_info filter ... and make sure the [post_author_posts_link] or [post_author] shortcode is not present.
Fourthly, if you use something like Yoast's WordPress SEO plugin, you'll probably want to check the Disable author/user sitemap box.

MemberFirstly ... you only need to add it to the 480px media query ... and it will take effect for all widths below 480px, i.e. you don't need to add it to the 320px query as well. A similar case applies if you decide to include tablets, i.e. add to 767px and not 480px.
Secondly ... where did you add this? I'm not seeing it in your style.css file.
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberErik D. Slater
MemberOK. I see the problem. Line 916 of your style.css file, which reads:
.featured-section .site-header { background-color: transparent; }
Remove it 🙂
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberCan you post a link? The default doesn't seem to do what you describe ... and JavaScript is used to toggle the site header class ... and I wouldn't want to advise you on the wrong CSS change 🙂
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberSo basically - instead of http://tseconsult.com/portfolio/ - you're looking to have something along the lines of:
- http://tseconsult.com/portfolio-lectures/
- http://tseconsult.com/portfolio-workshops/Would that be right?
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberBased on how your site currently stands ...
If mobile includes tablets then you will want to place those two lines of CSS code inside the @media only screen and (max-width: 767px) section. Otherwise, slip them into the @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) section.

MemberI updated the WordPress install – would that correct an issues in the core files?
Yep. I just double-checked the codex concerning the update process ... since I couldn't remember off the top of my head 🙂
... would the comments appear again with the plugins deactivated?
If the problem still persists after all plugins have been deactivated - including any Must Use plugins - then the source of the problem would definitely not be with a plugin.
It happens with all the themes so doesn’t seem to be a theme specific issue?
... which confirms that you couldn't find the source of the problem when you looked at the theme files.
When I go to your page now, I no longer see the offending code. I also don't see any comments section either ...
Erik D. Slater: Digital Platform Consultant • LinkedInErik D. Slater
MemberIt does not matter where class="button" goes in your example. The problem is related to something else ...
