Where is your gallery? How do you have it set up?
jodzeeeMemberI was able to do it by floating some divs in the "header right" widget. Took me quite awhile to get the CSS right, but I did it! Now I suppose someone will tell me there was an easier way 😉
jodzeeeMemberI've tried the various hooks and can't seem to get it in the right place. In the Agency theme, the footer widgets are set up as 3 columns below the end of #inner and before #footer. The footer contains the "return to top" and the copyright and whatnot.
The "genesis_before_footer" hook is showing up between the footer widgets and the footer. Does that make sense? I can't seem to figure out how to add anything to the footer widgets. When I add it to the next one up on the visual hook guide you provided, it shows up inside the #inner div.
One way I got to work is to add support for 6 footer widgets instead of 3 and style them so the layout works for what I want. I feel like this is a hack though. But then again, it will allow for editing via the widgets later I suppose. Is this the way I should be doing it? See screen shot.
Thank you!
jodzeeeMemberIs my code showing up?
jodzeeeMemberThanks Brad, but that's not quite where I want it. I guess I shouldn't have said "footer". It's the footer widget area above that.
I think where it needs to be is inside div.wrap above div.footer-widgets-1
Or maybe it's even above div.wrapAlso, since I'm pretty new to this ... when do you add things like this to functions.php versus editing home.php (or others)?
Thank you!
jodzeeeMemberI've experimented with adding divs in home.php, but I don't know where to add it to make it show up in the footer - I don't see anything about the footer area in home.php. (I don't know how to write PHP, but I'm comfortable making adjustments to it, with help ... I'm learning more every day!).
I appreciate your help.
jodzeeeMemberSorry, that wasn't very clear. I'm missing the "Add Home" link:

jodzeeeMemberAre you comfortable editing the CSS? Start with these posts and see if they help:

jodzeeeMemberOn this page, it shows you can add a link via the Custom Menu section. That link is not showing up in mine. I'm using the Executive Theme and WP v3.5.1

(I know how to manually create it ... just want to point out the reference on this site may need to be changed).
jodzeeeMemberThanks so much!!
jodzeeeMemberThis was two different issues that I've finally solved.
Here's how to get the featured images on posts to work:

And here's how I was able to add other items besides posts to the page:

jodzeeeMemberOkay, I finally pieced together the puzzle. I was told I'd need to unhook the title and add it separately; however, I don't know how to do any of that yet! So I went back to the plugin route and via a variety of tutorials, code snippets, and the Codex, I was able to get the featured images working the same as they were using the blog template. Yay!
Plugin = Posts in Page

I was able to get it to work, but with some modification to enabling support and setting the size (the thumbnail code didn't work for me and I remembered seeing this in the Codex):
** Enabling Support and setting size for Post Thumbnails */
if ( function_exists( 'add_theme_support' ) ) {
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
set_post_thumbnail_size( 300, 200 );
}Then I added this from your instructions:
/** Add Featured Image to Posts - the Webonanza style */
add_action( 'genesis_after_post_title', 'child_do_single_post_image' );
function child_do_single_post_image() {
if( is_single() )
genesis_image( array( 'size' => 'post-thumbnail', 'attr' => array( 'class' => 'alignright post-image' ) ) );
}Thanks again, I really appreciate the help and quick response!
jodzeeeMemberI tried changing the priority to a higher number, but that results in the title and the content being placed below the blog posts.
Is there a way to have a page that contains the following:
TITLE > BLOG POSTS > CONTENT
or
CONTENT > BLOG POSTS > CONTENT
I've tried a plugin for this, but it seems to strip out the featured image. 🙁
March 3, 2013 at 12:12 pm in reply to: How to get featured images to work on blog using Magazine theme #23927jodzeeeMemberYes, I would like to see the instructions. Thank you!
March 3, 2013 at 3:32 am in reply to: How to get featured images to work on blog using Magazine theme #23869jodzeeeMemberAlex: Did you get the featured image to work? I'm not sure if we have the same problem, but I've got a blog page that shows the thumbnails with the excerpts, but not on the post itself. It's supposed to show on both, isn't it?
jodzeeeMemberToday I tried changing the template "blog" and that made the images show up on the excerpts page, but the image does not show on the individual posts. Is this behavior supported in the AgentPress theme? Do I need to enable something?
jodzeeeMemberIt seems to be working for me, did you find a fix?
jodzeeeMemberAh! Thanks for the reply, I'll try that. I guess I need to learn CSS better!
In the meantime, I got it to work with this:
.menu-section-head > a:first-child
Thanks again for your help.jodzeeeMemberLike this? If so, just change the layout.
