I'm having exactly the same problem! Have just submitted a ticket.

Ok I think I've worked out what's causing it but don't know how to fix it. Basically anything behind the premise membership wall won't allow comments

I'll submit a support ticket for this one I think.

Just to follow up on the last comment. I can see that you can tick a box to allow comments on each individual page, but it doesn't work. It doesn't activate the comments box. The weird thing is it's kind of intermittent, it's working on some pages but no others. I created a new page and it worked, I created another new page and it didn't...  bit confused.. help!

Ok sorry ignore that, I found the option in the Genesis settings 🙂

One thing I would like to know though, is it possible to switch the comments off on a few selected pages?

I have come up agains an issue with it though I can't seem to fix. How to change the background image. The grey background the plugin references is not the one on my server. It should be images/generatebox-bg.png but it doesn't seem to be pulling it in as I've changed that image to a custom one. I've changed it both in the root generate images folder and the 'orange' folder too just in case, but neither seem to be being pulled in.

CSS...

#generate-box .wrap {
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 2px #999;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 2px #999;
background: url(images/generatebox-bg.png) repeat-x top #212121;
border: 1px solid #fff;
box-shadow: 0 0 2px #999;
clear: both;
color: #9f9f9f;
min-height: 195px;
margin: 2px auto 0;
padding: 30px;
text-shadow: -1px -1px #000;
width: 898px;
}

Ah ha, that did the trick! I didn't realise there was a plugin for it, the help files just say to copy and paste the code supplied across into the generate box widget . Thanks for that, I know someone else struggling with that too, I'll pass it on.

Hi Brad

I just tried doing it that way. Got the aweber plugin and got it all connected up ok but had the same problem, the form was centered in the middle of the site for some reason. Anyway I went back to the other way of using the after_content_hook but this time I used the full html instead of the javascript snippet and it seems to be working just fine.

Still not mobile responsive, but neither was the aweber plugin. Not sure what to do about that bit...

If you have any ideas I'd appreciate the help, but not to worry if not, at least it works on desktop so far!

Thanks again

Nick

Hi Brad. So sorry I never realised you had replied. Thank you so much for helping out.

My site is http://www.nickellison.net

I took your advice and code and added it the function.php file. It's 99% working! I just have an alignment issue. Instead of the sign up form sitting directly under the post it sits right in the middle of the site, crossing half of the post and half of the sidebar. Is there an easy fix for that? (I've taken it down so you won't be able to see it but here's a screenshot http://nickellison.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Screen-shot-2013-04-03-at-10.33.58.png

One other issue is that I'm inserting the aweber code straight into the text widget, so it's not mobile responsive as per the theme. Do you know of a way I can either make it respond or replace it for a different form when opened on mobile?

Thanks for your help

Thanks for the info. It's over my head unfortunately but I'll pass it on to my man who can, it will make more sense to him 🙂 Much appreciated.

Thanks, I got that sorted in the end, Nick helped me via email. Cheers

I just played around with the css file (bit of hit and hope) but it has resized, unfortunately like you said though doesn't give the desired result. In the first scenario, is there a way to change the image that shows up on mobile instead of pulling in the main header image?

 

[Nick Ellison]

Hi. When you say 'different background for each of the responsive sections' what do you mean? Where are these different sections found? I just replaced generatebox-bg.png image.

And where would I add “background-size: contain;” somewhere in the style.css file?

Thanks

Nick

Hi Susan, I managed to get it to work late last night! You are right it's the generatebox-bg.png image that needs replacing, it turns out I was looking at cached pages, I switched over browsers and I could see the changes.

With the generatebox-badge.png issue you are having. They are in the subfolders, so there is the top level image folder, then the red/green/orange subfolders. If you replace the file in those that should change the badge. I originally replaced that badge with an ebook at 400px square and it worked quite nicely.
