Ah...see, I learned something too. I was wondering why the original code didn't work since everything looked fine.
When I tested Rob's code, I got a bunch of syntax errors. Now I know why.
Hope you got it all fixed, Rob! Brad, you're a rock star. 🙂
Not sure why your code doesn't work.
The code below (with your page name of /about-me/) should add a custom widget directly below the header / above the nav bar:

Sorry, Brad's example is actually /about-page/. Hopefully you understand what I meant... 😉
Rob,
What is the page name? That could be the problem. In Brad's example, it's /about-me/.
Double-check this line in the functions file and edit with your own page name:
if ( is_page('about-page') && is_active_sidebar( 'page-widget' ) ) {
I'm glad you found some closure on this one. Too bad about the incompatible plugin. 🙁
Good luck & best wishes. xo
Hi Kathie,
Most people looking to answer forum questions start out by looking for posts with no reply. Your odds of getting another designer to help are better if you have a new post with zero replies.
That being said, I'm glad Ryan was able to chime in. 🙂
Sorry, I don't know what to tell you. It might have something to do with the page templates created by the theme author. I'm not familiar with the theme, so I'd have to see your theme's files to be sure.
Since I've replied to this post, you may want to submit a new post asking your question to see if another designer can pick it up and give you further guidance.
Try this for line 522...
.content-sidebar #content-sidebar-wrap, .full-width-content #content-sidebar-wrap, .sidebar-content #content-sidebar-wrap { width: 100%; background: white; }*whispers a little prayer* 😉
I understand your frustration. Just trying to help. 🙂
The theme designer should have her own support system in place for you to open a support ticket. She's really the best qualified to help you resolve this issue.
You can set the universal default via Genesis theme settings. Then, on a per page basis, you can override this setting. Hope that clears things up a bit.
I've got to sign off now, but wanted to mention that the slider is within the .wrap div, so that's why it's not going the width of the screen; it's limited by the width of the wrap, which is 1140px.
Perhaps there's a better way and another designer can chime in, but I would move the slider outside of the wrap so it's not affected.
I see now...
The first .wrap div should be the original 1140px in width, sorry.
I do see where the #header is 1140px on line 185. Tinker with it to see if that fixes your issue.
A clue to your dilemma is that the wrap for all of your content is set to 960px wide, while the nav bar's width is wider at 1066px. You'll need to adjust the container widths accordingly.
To center the nav bar, set the the margin to...margin: 0 auto.
Now the footer seems a bit pressed against the post content. You can fix this by adding a top margin, or try adding back the padding.
Oh, I'm so sorry. I see the issue now. Lol It's kinda been a long day. 😉
Modify your style sheet, starting with line 543 to this...
.content-sidebar #content, .sidebar-content #content { width: 700px; background: white; padding: 20px; }
The page is using the full-width setting. You might wanna check the default layout in Genesis theme settings or the page layout setting on the page itself.
Hi,
Looks like you figured out the custom background after all. 🙂
As for the footer gap, remove the padding (change it to 0). This can be found in the style sheet on line 1437.
1) Change featured image size via the Genesis theme settings in your dashboard. If the dimensions you want are not there, you'll need to add them to your functions file as covered in this tutorial: https://my.studiopress.com/snippets/images/
2) Instructions can be found in one of the pages below...

3) You can change this in your style sheet. Starting on Line 761
Hope this helps.
Hiya,
Change the width from 1140px to 100% in your style sheet. Starts on line 172.
🙂
