Victor,
Did you have any luck accessing the site? I could really use some help here. Your advice would be much appreciated.
Sorry, the link should be http://accessbis.com.au/team/ We've not yet secured a SSL certificate.
Thanks Victor.
It is indeed strange. There must be something going on with my hosting server because, while it took 2 days, the categories are now visible. I'll be sure to completely clear my cache next time this doesn't work and contact the support group.
Thank you. It's working.
I have put this code in, using the "Additional CSS" option on the "Customize" menu:
.home-top .widget {
margin: 0;
padding: 0px;
}.home-top .widget:first-child {
padding: 0px;
}Okay, let me rephrase my question a little, now that I've thought about it a little more...
The home-top widget is supposed to have a Genesis Responsive Slider in it. So I changed the width of my video to 1140. This leaves a white border around the image. So, how do I get rid of this margin (or is it padding)? Or, is it possible to have a video display using the GRS?
Thanks gigamedia for your suggested fix.
I believe that I ended up just using a random text box on the side, rather than a separate category for quotes.
However, just last week, I upgraded my site to the Sixteen Nine Pro theme and have removed the quotations from the sidebar completely, opting instead for using the quote post format.
Bill,
How would widgetizing the bottom of my homepage deal with my issue? Will this somehow restrict the excluding to only the content posts?
Sorry, Bill, but it doesn't work.
The option to exclude categories is available in the settings of the Blog template, but this doesn't affect what gets displayed on my homepage. I did try, both before and now again. It would have been a nice solution...
It's ok though. There is a Random Text plugin that does the trick. I just would have preferred having the quotes as posts, so that I could use them in other ways.
Yeah. Excluding a category shuts down the sidebar completely.
I have a variety of sidebar widgets, using the Genesis eNews Extended, Featured Page, and Featured Widget Amplified plugins. One of the widgets using Featured Posts, is displaying the posts from the category I want to exclude from the featured content on the homepage. So, I guess excluding a category from the homepage excludes it from everywhere on the homepage. I could work around this except that the whole sidebar gets excluded, not just the widget displaying the posts from the offending category.
Funny, isn't it? I'll just have to do something else...
Carrie & Bill: The theme I am using is the Streamline child theme. It does use a specific home.php template.
Brad: I was looking for a plugin. There is another I tested, but, as with the one you suggested, when I 'turn off' the category I want to hide, this operation also shuts down my sidebar, since I am using that category there. Oh well. I was hoping for better...
Thank you very much, all of you, for your suggestions!
