Michael,
I'm using the Genesis Featured Posts widget that comes with Genesis, not a plugin.

Hi Reem,
I don't know if you figured this out already, since the images look great on my Mac. 🙂
But one thing to keep in mind is that when you upload images through WordPress itself, they may get automatically resized/optimized. I've found that the best way to be sure your images stay the way you intended would be to size them to the same size as your destination area, then upload them manually with an FTP program to an images folder for your theme. That way you know your images are how you intended them. You may want to try that if it's still a problem for you and see if it helps. I hope that makes sense.

nerdworker.comHi surflook!
I think the indenting makes the hierarchy more obvious, but if you want the Pages in the left sidebar to left-align and have no bullets, you can place this code in your style.css file:
.widget_pages ul, .widget_pages ul ul { margin-left: 0; } .widget_pages ul li { list-style-type: none; }I hope that helps.

nerdworker.comMaybe I'm missing something? When I view the official demo (http://demo.studiopress.com/sixteen-nine/) on my mobile emulator, the left-side menu goes to the top with a hamburger drop-down and the right sidebar goes to the bottom.
Does it show correctly in the regular desktop view? Have you done customizations to the site? If not, perhaps reinstalling the theme. If so, perhaps reviewing your changes to be sure nothing inadvertently caused it? Kind of hard to diagnose without seeing something.
Hi Anita,
Probably an obvious question, but have you checked what the mobile media queries are doing?

nerdworker.comWithout being able to see the site, I can only suggest two things:
Either try using
min-heightinstead of height, or try adding!importantbehind your height attribute, like this:height: 48px !important;in case something is overriding the attribute.I hope that helps,

nerdworker.comDo you happen to be using Jetpack? It has a feature for widget visibility that I've used before that enables you to choose on what pages each widget appears. Kind of a long shot, but worth a try if you already have Jetpack.
Hi SonjaHelga!
There is no one tool that is right for everyone, and you have to make the determination of what works best for you. But Genesis has many great things about it and I encourage you to thoroughly give it a chance before you give up on it. Have you looked through all the resources that can be found online? Genesis has a great community and a lot of information out there. Here are just a few resources to check out:
http://my.studiopress.com/genesis-beginners-guide/
http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/introduction-to-the-genesis-framework--wp-28496
And there are many more. I hope these help to get you started.

I came across this example the sounds like what you want:

nerdworker.comA great way to see what others have done with their code is to use the development tools for your particular browser. If nothing else, you can usually right click on a page and View Source to see the code. It can show you what code others have used and give you clues about those cool effects! 😉 I use Firefox and have an Inspect Element option when I right-click a page. It shows very detailed info about the code. It's very useful for things like this.
Hello again,
The editor is not turned off by Genesis, but it may have been turned off some other way for your site.
The simple hooks plugin is great, but not for this purpose. What you need to do is enter the code into your functions.php file, which is something different. The better plugin for this purpose would be something like Code Snippets. This plugin let you add code to your functions.php file easily and each entry is separate and easy to see.
Hello Ige,
The page you list is using the Minimum Pro theme. The effect you see is part of that theme's home page. The text and button were probably added with a text widget in that particular widget area for that page. You can see from the demo that the functionality of the linked page is not very different from the Minimum Pro demo. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your question?
Regards,
Stefanie
nerdworker.comI was just about to point you to that exact post, but you beat me to it! LOL
I'm glad you got it. 🙂
Hi Mark,
Perhaps these instructions will help you out:

nerdworker.comHello pcgs51,
That should be exactly what the exclude feature is for. Are you sure you used the category ID and not the name? Try viewing this video example -- the first half should be what you need where she talks about excluding the category:

I hope that helps.

nerdworker.comHi Venice,
I haven't tried it myself, but perhaps this bit of code will help you:
http://www.wpstuffs.com/insert-featured-image-above-posts/
Be sure to see the comment at the bottom about using it for pages. It has an adjustment to the code for that.
Hope it helps,
Stefanie
nerdworker.comHello,
I'm not clear on whether you want to show all the posts' featured images on the archive page or if you are just trying to show one specific image at the top of the page. If you just want to show featured images on the archive page, there is a setting in the Genesis Theme Settings, under Content Archives to include featured images.
If you want to show one specific image at the top of the archive page, then you may need to add a hook to the page in the correct area. This visual guide might help establish where to put it: http://genesistutorials.com/visual-hook-guide/
Sorry that I'm not exactly sure how to answer.
Regards,
Stefanie
nerdworker.comHello,
This widget hasn't been updated in a while, but perhaps it will still work for you:

According to this post, it still worked in version 3.8.
Hope that helps,
