    Thanks for sharing. Is there a way to modify Genesis (like in this case) without modifying its core code?

    Wanted to avoid that, and thankfully was able to by using this as inspiration to use CSS, and more specifically, an attribute selector to hide selected categories based on the partial value of the title attribute of the anchor tag:

    .categories a[title$="StringEndingAttributeValue"] {
    	display: none;
    }

    Thanks!

    Thanks for this suggestion. Already using Custom Featured Post Widget but am worried about losing my changes if plugin is updated.

    Does the plugin have any filters?

    Experiencing the same problem with placeholder menus not responding on iOS devices. Works fine on Android devices, though.

    Is there a workaround for this problem?

    Not sure I understand how what you're describing would work. Could you provide some details?

    Thanks for the tips.

    Any idea how to make the magnifying glass icon disappear when text is the search field so the cancel icon is clearly visible?

    Thanks!

    exelexys
    Member

    Finally got this to work after being unable to look at it nearly a week.

    Au Coeur, thanks for your help, couldn't have done it without you.

    CSS (if anyone is interested) can be found below. Note this CSS is the entire Site Navigation section from Executive Pro, though only approximately the first half has been modified.

    There are three color states each of which contain CSS properties background-color and color :

    • default
    • selected (main menu only)
    • hover

    In the CSS below, these correspond to:

    • default
      • background-color: #35406b;
      • color: #fff;
    • selected (main menu only)
      • background-color: #88c3e8;
      • color: #fff;
    • hover
      • background-color: #fff;
      • color: #35406b;

    Not everyone may want this same color state behavior, particularly when hovering over submenu items, but this seemed most plausible to me from a usability perspective. Feel free to change the colors/color states as anyone sees fit.

    Added bonus: submenu behavior carries over to sub-submenu items (lending credence to the 'cascading' portion of CSS =)

    exelexys

    Yes, found it. Tried changing all existing navigation menu color settings, but no luck. If the default color of the main menu text is the same as the hover background color (in this case white), hovering over the submenu item causes the menu text to 'disappear'.

    In addition to the example in my original post, this is again evident when a main menu item with submenu items is the currently selected menu item. In this case, since the default text color (white) is not the same as the hover background color (there is none, since the currently selected menu item doesn't change color), the main menu item text doesn't disappear when hovering over the submenu items:

    Need to add a selector to the CSS file to prevent this from happening, but haven't able to find the right one. It's still unclear why the main menu item background retains its color when hovering over submenu items, but the text doesn't.

    Thanks

    exelexys
    Member

    Seems the ellipsis in the Featured Posts widget starts on a new line because it's actually an HTML entity (

    …

    ), not three periods as originally thought. Apparently, the spacing between the dots in the entity is much smaller than the standard spacing between three periods, hence the need for an HTML entity.

    This HTML character entity can be replaced with three periods using the following filter pulled from the StudioPress
    Post Excerpts snippet.

    //* Modify the Genesis content limit read more link
    add_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'sp_read_more_link' );
    function sp_read_more_link() {
    	return '... <a class="more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '">[Continue Reading]</a>';
    }

    This doesn't eliminate the space between the end of the excerpt and the new faux ellipsis, but at least now there are no orphaned ellipses on new lines.

    What about trying to insert the post category before the featured post content via the Genesis Featured Widget Amplified?

    Possibly using one of these two hooks:

    gfwa_before_loop
    gfwa_before_post_content

    Thanks

    Thanks for the link!

    What about displaying a static text string above each featured post title e.g., Blog?
