When it dawned on me that all I wanted was the typography, i.e., the fonts, I used the Genesis sample child, and did a detailed search and replace on the fonts in the style.css.
What else about the theme are you looking to implement?
Hi Mike, thank you for commenting. 🙂
I ended up using a different theme, and just taking some of the elements that I liked about that theme (fonts pairings, etc.) and implementing it into the new theme.
I get that the designer probably wanted that simplicity baked into their theme, I appreciate that. But I wanted to customize it a bit more with my own vision and I'm not at the point yet, where I can round trip a double negative (remove the removal 😉 AND know how to tweak all the CSS necessary to make each layout respond correctly on multiple devices. With the help of a kind and encouraging community, like you, I will get there.
I was in "get it done" mode and hope to have more "teachable moments" as time goes on.
Thanks again!It "clearly states which layouts are available" ? I must have missed that clear statement or I would not be asking my question.
Why would I genesis_unregister what doesn't exist in the first place, on Atmosphere Pro, when I am looking to ADD layouts?
I'm trying to wean myself off of Ithemes, and see if I can convert her site:
To Genesis, and I need to be able to duplicate that header, all the way across the top.
It is, already the exact size already. I don't want to crop it, I want to use my header banner at full size.
If I didn't change the php, I wouldn't be allowed to enter my graphic of that size, it would only allow me the teeny default size that comes with the theme.
It was my Amazons3 plugin, my apologies. I disabled it.
And thank you so much for your assistance, I appreciate it.
So now I have my height - I'm having trouble identifying the container/class that is constraining the width. On the other site, I was able to use background-size: cover; to stretch the image across the container.
You're right, I added it (following a tutorial elsewhere) so I found the original declaration and changed it. WPEngine must be caching my staging server, because I do indeed have min-height set to 240, verified by ftp'ing in and looking at the style.css, but wpengine is serving a version of the file with 120. No way to dump the cache on the staging server....Alrighty then!
My images are 1192, I don't want to crop them - that's my problem. The menu based header upload is cropping them, not letting me extend the edges of the crop tool to the entire width of the image.
