Hello All

Although the feedback from Glenrock provided "visual" appeal ( thank you again for the help), the header did not behave according to the sample provided: http://reneecarlino.com/. The menu itself lost all responsiveness and did not remain centered above the icons.

I would really like that my header behaves "identically", if possible, to the sample site. I just can not get myself there.

For testing purposes, I set-up the header with the same two elements as in the example site without trying to make tweaks.
I added he Navigation menu and a text widget in the "Header Widget"

Can anyone help achieve the same effect on my site: http://www.colibrifit.ch

Thank you again for your help!!

Hi Glenrock

That did seem to solve the problem once I corrected a typo! Bravo and Many Thanks!

One last question. The .responsive-menu-icon ( the three horizontal lines) is no longer tracking to center

Can you help me with that?

Cheers!!

With the support of Studiopress Technical Team, we narrowed down the problem I was having to a plugin. The culprit: "GetMeCooking Recipe Template". Once we turned it off, Voila! Everything operational. The latest version of the plugin (1.25) resolved an interference with correctly registering custom post type permalink rewrites.

Once again, I am reminded that PLUGINS, however stable they may seem to be or however long you may have been successfully using them, can wreck havoc on a new Theme installation. Turning off plugins before a new Installation is probably the appropriate protocol ... Now I know!

Thank you to Anitac from cre8tivediva for her kind support as I was struggling to understand the issue.

Hi Anitac

No, I did not create a page because the "Portfolio" is a custom_post_type thus not required per my understanding of CPTs and the instructions.

I suspect the problem has to do with issues regarding "flushing" my permalinks after changing the theme. A 404 error seems to be a common issue with CPTs when changing themes.

I tried "re-saving" the settings as the instructions indicated and other discussions I read suggest. Unfortunately, nothing is working. I hesitate to "force a flush (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/flush_rewrite_rules) because I am not a coder and I've no idea how to do this correctly or if it is even the "root cause".

The support group would like full Admin access to my site: but before I go to that extreme, I was hoping someone here could help me troubleshoot. This was never suppose to be so difficult *sigh*

UPDATE: Seemed to have solved the issue by adjusting the header width. Passes the "Responsive Test" and look ok on large screens.

#header {
background-position: top center!important;
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 210px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 1140px;
}
