    Anyone know of an easy way to change from Metro to the new HTML5 Metro Pro child theme. Does the old theme retain its settings or do you have to set it all back up.

    Hi Brad

    Thanks for that got it all sorted.

    Can I ask one more question about Metro theme?

    I have added a custom background to the site and I use a Firefox plugin called SEO doctor which looks at the elements in the site. What i have noticed is that the new custom background does not have an Alt tag associated with it .

    I though that images with the csss of site never used Alt attribute but SEO doctor is picking up the background as an image n the site. Is there anywhere that I can just add the Alt attribute to the code so it gets a 100% report.

    Hi Everyone

    I am trying to add a new full size widget area under the three content boxes. I can register the widget with out any problems in the function.php but I really do not know where to add the code on the Home.php

    The code for the functions file...

    genesis_register_sidebar( array(
    'id'            => 'home-optin',
    'name'            => __( 'Home Three', 'agency' ),
    'description'    => __( 'This is the optin section of the homepage.', 'agency' ),
    ) );

    The new widget needs to be the same width as the slider but under the content boxes and above the footer widgets you can see the site here - http://www.buzinga.com.au/

    Do I need to add the || is_active_sidebar( 'home-optin' ) to this line

    function agency_home_genesis_meta() {

    if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home-welcome' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-slider' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-left' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-middle' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-right' ) ) {

    and also this line

    function agency_home_loop_helper() {

    if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home-left' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-middle' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-right' ) ) {

    I have tried doing this but I end up with the widget at the top of the page any help would be appreciated.
