Ok. I actually figured out how to do this on my own. It was actually very simple and the solution kind of ironic....

... you can do it using the Yoast SEO plugin options in the advanced settings on page....

facepalm

False Alarm.

User Error :/

Hi Neil,

Nope. That one does not work either. That one doesn't remove tags or categories from either post excerpts or posts 🙁

[Genesis Child]

It's weird because I have tried this code too, which is also supposed to be able to solve my problem:

/** Customize the post meta function - Crunchify Tips*/
add_filter( 'genesis_post_meta', 'crunchify_post_meta_filter' );
function crunchify_post_meta_filter($post_meta) {
if ( !is_page() && !is_home() && !is_front_page() && !is_archive()) {
$post_meta = '[post_categories before="Filed Under: "] [post_tags before="Tagged: "]';
return $post_meta;
}}

But this isn't working either. Removes tags and categories from post excerpts and the actual posts too...

🙁

Hi Neil,

No it is removing it from both. My site is not live yet. Can I provide you with anything else?

functions.php?

Thanks,

Hi Neil,

Thanks for getting back to me.

I tried that. It removes the tags and category meta from the post and the post excerpts though. I just want to remove the tags and category meta from the post excerpts, not from the posts themselves.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

GC

OK, I figured out what the problem was. I had not removed the existing code from the style sheet, this code here:

/* Secondary Navigation
--------------------------------------------- */

Stup!

Solved my own problem:

Works great.

If anyone else has any other ways of doing that you are willing to share. By all means do.

Wouldn't let me edit the original post again, lol.

Ideally if I could stop my sub pages 'springing out' to the right (or left) and kind of just have them open up as further drop downs this would be ideal so they don't end up spanning all the way across the screen.

So like this:

Page
_Page 1
_Page 2
_Page 3
__Page 3.1
__Page 3.2
__Page 3.3
___Page 3.3.1
___Page 3.3.2
___Page 3.3.3

Instead of:

Page
_____Page 1
_____Page 2
_____Page 3
____________Page 3.1
____________Page 3.2
____________Page 3.3
_____________________Page 3.3.1
_____________________Page 3.3.2
_____________________Page 3.3.3

Thanks 😉

Ok, I figured it out.

It was because I didn't have any post actually in the categories yet. I made a test post and assigned it to one of the categories and now that category is showing.

Resolved,

I'm having some problems with this too. It's working and everything but I don't know how to style my css to get it to look the way I want it too.

If someone wants to have a look I can privately send you my url (it's a new site and I don't want to skew my traffic analytics).

I am also prepared to pay someone to do this. As long as you are completely transparent with me about how long it will take you to do and how much it will cost I will pay you in advance.

Any takers?

[Genesis Child]

Ok disregard all of that. (My last post that is [the one above this post] - in fact if a moderator could delete that so that no poor unsuspecting sole goes and does that to there site... IT DOES NOT WORK.

It said it was working from Googles end... but it broke my site in actuality and I had to reverse it i.e. I have now removed the code.

Still stuck :/

[Genesis Child]

Ok. So I've done it.

This is what I did.

(I'm using Genesis-Sample)

1) Go to Genesis tab and hover
2) Hover displays 'Theme Settings' and 'Import/Export' - select theme settings
3) Scroll to the bottom of 'Theme Settings' to a sub-heading that says: 'Header and Footer Scripts'
4) In the 'wp_head()' section put the code Google gave you in there.

Then go back to your Google+ page and select 'verify website'

Voilà!

[Genesis Child]

Ok... so Google is telling us to do it incorrectly then?

https://support.google.com/plus/answer/1713826?p=link_page_to_website&rd=1

As per Google in the link above

To link your Google+ Page to your website:

Make sure you're using Google+ as your page.
Click Profile on the left.
On the ‘About’ tab, click the Link website button next to your website URL.
Follow the steps in the box that appears:
Copy and paste the code snippet provided to the <head> tag of your website and click the Test website button.
We'll check to make sure you've added the snippet to your website correctly.
Click Done when the check is complete.
A verified checkmark checkmark will display next to your website on the 'About' tab of your page's profile. It may take a few days for the checkmark to appear.

Or am I just not understanding the instructions correctly. I've done a few Google searches and allot of people say to put the code in the header.php ...

Hi Susan,

Thanks for this info - it seems pretty straight forward - however when I go into the file depicted above the second line of text under <?php and Genesis Framework says this:

* WARNING: This file is part of the core Genesis Framework. DO NOT edit this file under any circumstances.
* Please do all modifications in the form of a child theme.

Scary!

The only reason I searched and found this thread was because I wanted to put this code in my child theme but there does not appear to be a header.php file to add it too...

Any ideas? Susan? Anyone?

Please help!

P.S.S.

I'm having a good look at your website now. WOW! It's really cool. I like how the when you scroll down the home page it has those transparent sections where you can see the background image between the content containers.

Very nice.

Thanks again for your help I will mark this resolved 😉

[Genesis Child]

WOW! So simple! You - are - a - LEGEND!

This makes so much sense now. A total AHA moment. I am slowly bit by bit learning how all this stuff works and this has opened my eyes up to understanding more of how these Stylesheets work.

Thank you so much for helping me with this, and thank you so much for being empathetic of my bounce rate.

You are a really outstandingly efficient, helpful, and empathetic person.

I'm really stoked you helped me out with this.

Again thank you sooooo much, and thank you for the kind words about how my site is looking thus far, it means allot to me 😉

Genesis Child 😉

P.S. Oh obviously I have applied the code and it works PERFECTLY! 😉 tada!

Does it help at all that I am just running the stock standard Genesis Sample Child Theme over the Genesis Framework?

If not please let me know and I will private reply with my url - I appreciate the assistance and don't want to be awkward lol

Thanks again

Hi nuts and bolts,

and thanks for you rapid response.

If you look at the studiopress navigation bar at the top of this forum and you hover over the page options

STUDIOPRESS 101
SHOP FOR THEMES
RESOURCES »
MY STUDIOPRESS

You will see they change colour from grey to white. I am trying to set my site up so that when you hover over the page options the text transforms to underline instead of changing colour. I have figured out how to stop it from changing colour by just making the css code for the colour hover change the same as the regular colour.

but how do I make the text transform to underline on hover

I hope this is adequate enough of an explanation. I could provide my site url but it is brand new and I am trying to minimise views at the moment so as not to skew the analytical data and because I have not even launched the brand yet and the content is commercially sensitive...

but I will if I have to...

Thanks
