Thanks Genwrock - that's perfect actually

thanks Anita - yes i don't want full page width - i prefer the narrower content width in this case - but as long as only LOGGED IN users see that Primary Widget panel - that's fine

cheers

hi

I am having a similar problem

I am re-building the child theme for my site http://www.fingerprintdigitalmedia.com and have some CATEGORY links in the top menu

if you look at the OUR CLIENTS link and click one of it's sub links i would like the TOP LEVEL item [ie: OUR SERVICES to be highlighted.

i tried;
.genesis-nav-menu a:hover,
.genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a,
.genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu .current-menu-item > a:hover,
.genesis-nav-menu > .menu-item.current-page-ancestor > a {
color: #ac8ad9;
}

but the menu link is not getting highlighted

it is because the sub menu link is a CATEGORY? if so how do i fix the CSS?

thanks

Thanks genwrock

yes the PAGINATION is working ok - but the POST NAV isn't [ie: Next | Previous etc at bottom of posts]

is POST NAV built in automatically to the Genesis Sample Theme?

thanks

Phil

[PhilMurray]

does it only kick in if there are 10+ posts on a site genwrock?

i know i can add code to functions.php to get it to work -- but i assumed post navigation was built into the genesis sample child theme?

thanks

Phil

hi Jan

i tried that but the widget gets added above the PRIMARY NAV --- so looks like giving it an order ID is causing it to not sit below the NAV

So do I need to give the PRIMARY NAV an order ID of it's own?

if so - how?

thanks

Thanks a lot Jan - will do

where it says 'childtheme' - do i place the name of the childtheme in there or leave it as 'childtheme' ?

thanks

hi Jan

this is one of them

thanks

Phil

/** Register Widget Area */

genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id' => 'widget_before_content',
'name' => __( 'Homepage Below Menu' ),
'description' => __( 'This is below the bottom menu of the homepage.' ),
) );

/** Add Slider Widget Area */

add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'widget_before_content' , 3);
function widget_before_content() {
echo '<div class="widget_before_content">';
dynamic_sidebar( 'widget_before_content' );
echo '</div>';
}

[PhilMurray]

Thanks Jan --- i will try that

but do I need to add something in functions.php for the PRIMARY NAV also? is it registered as 'genesis_after_header' too in the core code? or will it always sit directly below the HEADER anyway even if other widgets are added to 'genesis_after_header' ?

also - i have styled the WIDGETS with background colours - but if the widget is not used [ie: has nothing in it] the backgroudn colour is still showing up on the site - how do I have the widgets NOT show up on the site unless they are being used?

thanks

hi Antiac

if you look at the Minimum Pro theme - http://my.studiopress.com/themes/minimum/#demo-full

when you scroll - the content slides up over the large photo and under the header -- how is that achieved?

thanks

Phil

[PhilMurray]

I managed to get round it using this neat plugin from Bill Erikson

Genesis Title Toggle

hi Kellywise

ok - i found the problem

in my functions.php file i have code to remove PAGE TITLES - [which i live because I want to show my own Page Titles in the actual content]

//* Remove page title for a specific page (requires HTML5 theme support)
add_action( 'get_header', 'child_remove_page_titles' );
function child_remove_page_titles() {
if ( is_page( )) {
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_do_post_title' );
}
}

Because I am using a PAGE to display a single category of POSTS - i reckon that must be removing the actual POST TITLES also

so - anyway to get round this? I would like to keep the above code IN the functions.php but I want to be able to see the POST TITLES

thanks

Phil
