Hi Roger,

I no longer work for the agency that was involved in the making of that website, but before I left, I set up a custom ajustment with the folks at BizBudding to give the site's owner the choice of one image for the featured images showing in the blog archive and another for the banner images behind each posts' title. I would contact BizBudding.

OH! Thank you!

[oiseau73]

Actually, it is SEO Themes, but thank you anyway.

[oiseau73]

I will do that. I noticed it because I was adjusting the css.

[oiseau73]

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Brad,

Sorry I left that out. This is what I have to register the widget:

genesis_register_sidebar( array(
	'id'          => 'managed-portfolios',
	'name'        => __( 'Managed Portfolios', 'metro' ),
	'description' => __( 'Managed Portfolio links.', 'metro' ),
) );

Thanks, McGuive7, I will take a look at those plugins.

Oh boy, I have spent the past hour making a fine mess! Fortunately, there is a demo version of the site (whew) and I have been trying to add in the Managed Portfolios widget to this page:
http://bft-int.com/wp-demo1/dow-managed-portfolios/

I like the idea of using a conditional tag, but I have to tell you, I haven't a clue as to what I am doing. Starting with the code from your post:

add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'your_widget' );
function your_widget() {
if ( is_front_page() && is_active_sidebar('new-widget') ) {
genesis_widget_area( 'new-widget', array(
'before' => '<div class="new-widget widget-area">',
'after'	 => '</div>',
		) ); 
 
  }
 
}

I have been trying different things:

add_action( 'genesis_before_entry', 'managed-portfolios' );
function genesis_entry_header() {
if ( is_page( 407 )  && is_active_sidebar('managed-portfolios') ) {
genesis_widget_area( 'managed-portfolios', array(
'before' => '<div class="content-column">',
'after'	 => '</div>',
		) ); 
 
}

Which does not work. 🙂

This line:
if ( is_page( 407 ) && is_active_sidebar('managed-portfolios') ) {
is trying to assign this sidebar to just page ID 407 which is the Managed Portfolio page.

This line:
'before' => '<div class="content-column">',
"content-column" is the div the icons & links are sitting in.

Guidance would be appreciated! Obviously, programming is not something I attempt very often.

Thanks!

Hi Brad,

The different sections are:
Portfolio Review
Overview
Client Services
Managed Portfolios
Fixed Income
Corporate Retirement
Institutional Investing
Investor Education
Advertising

I am guessing that each of those sections would need a page template? I can add a widget for each section and add the code for the icons/links in there. What I need help with is what code with what genesis hooks I would add for each template.

Thanks!

Aaron, it seems that you have to go into your Dashboard and go to Appearance/Header and upload your logo there. Make sure you uncheck the " Show header text with your image" box.

It seems that if you try and ignore this and have your logo sit in the background of the header area via CSS, the header text will show up despite unchecking the previously mentioned box. Not something I am thrilled about.

I did hear back from support. To make my logo shrink to fit phones I added this CSS rule down at the bottom of the styles.css file in the responsive section - @media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
}

Here's the rule (thanks Jennifer for this!):

.custom-header #header {
background-size: contain !important;
}

Hope this helps!

Aaron, I see you have the logo in the background of your header:

#header {
background: url("http://www.covenantamerica.us/wp-content/uploads/cropped-Header2.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent !important;
}

Did you also upload the logo? Go to your Dashboard and look in Appearances/Header and see if you did upload it there. That may be why you have 2 of them.

I've been dealing with this today as well.

Aaron, I did submit a trouble ticket. I'll post the reply.

[oiseau73]

Hi there,

Yes, it all looks fine except on phones; now the logo is too big. I think I will submit a trouble ticket and report back.

thanks!

Never mind - I discovered more info on the problems the Genesis Latest Tweets Widget can have and switched to this:
