Hi,

The #inner selector, has a background declaration that "covers" the one you set through the appearances tab. The rule in the stylesheet is:

#inner {
background: black url(images/inner.png) repeat-x;
clear: both;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 30px 0;
}

delete the line that says: background: black url(images/inner.png) repeat-x;

Let me know how you make out.

Try adding the body class of .home before .wrap ie:

.home .wrap {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
}

Hello,

You could add:

width: 960px; to your #header rule.

Hi,

You can add this code to your functions.php file:

/** Modify the Genesis content limit read more link */
add_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'custom_read_more_link' );
function custom_read_more_link() {
    return '... <a class="more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '"><img src="image-link-here"></a>';
}

adding the location of your button image to the img src=

Also the link has a class of "more-link" so your could style it's background with a CSS gradient for a button effect instead.

Hi,

You can add:

.page-template-***** #content {
	float: none;
	margin: 0 auto;
	width: 60%;
}

Where .page-template-***** is the body class of your custom page template.

Just a complete guess, but could the breadcrumbs be coming from WooCommerce?

Try adding:

  remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_main_content',
'woocommerce_breadcrumb', 20, 0);

to your functions.php file (untested!)

OK, the Archive template is using the "wp_get_archives" function which apparently doesn't have an offset, so we'll have to "get_posts" instead.

We don't want to edit the parent theme files so copy the "page_archive.php" file from your genesis folder and paste it into your child theme.  Then replace this section in that file (lets try a pastie) :

<div class="archive-page">

<h4></h4>
<ul>

</ul>

<h4></h4>
<ul>

</ul>

</div><!-- end .archive-page-->

<div class="archive-page">

<h4></h4>
<ul>

</ul>

<h4></h4>
<ul>

</ul>

<h4></h4>
<ul>

</ul>

</div><!-- end .archive-page-->

With this:

<div class="archive-page">

<h4></h4>
<ul>
<!--?php global $post; $args = array( 'numberposts' => 25 );
$myposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata($post); ?>
<li><a href=""></a></li>

</ul>

</div><!-- end .archive-page-->

<div class="archive-page">

<h4></h4>
<ul>
<!--?php global $post; $args = array( 'numberposts' => 25, 'offset'=> 25 );
$myposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata($post); ?>
<li><a href=""></a></li>

</ul>
</div><!-- end .archive-page-->

Let me know how it works out for you.

Thanks for the link DigitalC!  Wrapping a few presents right now; I'll be back a bit later with some suggestions for you.

Hi,

I know it has been a month, but if you are still having a problem with this I'd like to help.

Please let me know.

Hi,

Are you able to post a link to your site?

Hi,

Not sure what your question is.  Are you looking for suggestions with respect to the best looking theme for your topic?

Outreach and Streamline themes that you mentioned are both really nice looking themes.  All of the StudioPress themes are great looking themes out of the box and can be further tweaked to meet your individual needs.  I suggest you choose a theme that most closely matches the layout you are interested in and then come back to this forum if you need help changing colors and font etc.

Take care,

If you find this section in your stylesheet:

.sidebar-content #content, .content-sidebar #content {
width: 630px;
margin: 0;

padding: 0;

}

You can adjust the margin (currently 0)

You will likely need to also adjust the width here:

#content {
float: left;
width: 480px !important;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

to accommodate your new margins.

Do everything I said previously and add:

margin-top: **px;

to the

.header-image #header #title-area {

we added earlier.  If you use Chrome Developer Tools (or Firebug for Firefox) you can view the CSS on my test site.

Paste this into functions.php:

add_action( 'genesis_before', 'excerpt_post_meta_removal' );
function excerpt_post_meta_removal() {
if( !is_single() ) {
remove_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta' );
}
}

OK, so you have two images. The grey "header" and the pink "logo".

Add

background: url(images/header.png) right top no-repeat;

after #header {

(make sure to add the header.png to the images folder)

Add height: ***px;

to the:

.header-image #header #title-area {
background: url(images/logo.png) left top no-repeat;
}

we added last time. (replace ***px with the height of your logo.

Change the height in:

.header-image #title-area,
.header-image #title,
.header-image #title a {

to the height of your logo too.

add clear:both;

to #inner {

I think I covered everything.  Let me know if something is wonky.

Is there going to be a nav bar below the header and menu items that must be protected from being overlapped by the logo?

[Hard Boiled Greg]

No, I don't think you would need a new widget area, and your header right widget should still be there.

If you'd like to post a link to your site and describe how you want it to hang over, I'll give you a hand with the CSS.

Right below:

/***** Image Header - Partial Width ********************/

in your style sheet, add:
.header-image #header #title-area {
background: url(images/logo.png) left top no-repeat;
}

Make sure you add logo.png (your logo image file) to your images folder in your child theme.

You may need to make other changes to your CSS depending on the height etc. of your logo.
