Thanks, I'll check that out. But the main reason my words were breaking was that I had a 50% width set for a bottom border connect to my

.home-even .widget-title,
.home-odd .widget-title
{

I took that off and it worked fine. I guess I'm learning about this responsive stuff now. I'll check that documentation. Thanks so much for your help.

[scottz]

OK, I tried that, stuck it in the 768 media query section, and it seemed to work. Awesome! I think I get it, sort of anyway.

Do you know how to set different text sizes for different widths, some way to stop long words from breaking? I've searched for a tutorial, but this whole responsive thing with media queries is still new to me, still not quite grasping the concept.

Thanks for the help, at least now the columns break where they should for the smaller screen.

[scottz]

Thanks Tom! But where do I place it...here? Under this, in this section, or just add it at the end of the stylesheet.

@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {

Things aren't always real obvious to me.

[scottz]

I just don't think you understand what I'm trying to do.

Changing this image is not what I need to do.

'default-image' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/images/header-banner.png',

Yes, your solution would work fine if that was the image I need to change. I want to change the image in the header above this.

It seems so simple.

Brad,

I know you must be busy, hate to keep bothering you with this. Frankly I'm kinda confused by

You can simply replace the image in your images folder and make sure the height matches whats in the code and it will repeat according to the functions.

I think I missed a step or something.

All I want to do is repeat an image in the top header area, and float the logo image over it, like I've done a million times in genesis, only this theme does not seem to allow me to do that. The header area that I can repeat an image inside is set to 1140 px (or something) and when I tried hacking the .css like so

.site-header .wrap {

background-attachment: scroll;
background-clip: border-box;
background-color: #444;
background-image: url("http://www.oluplaw.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/HEADBG2.png");
background-origin: padding-box;
background-position: 0px 10px;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-size: auto auto;
max-width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 40px;
padding-left: 250px;
padding-right: 250px;
padding-top: 40px;

}

I got this:

The BG image floats behind, but the rest is kinda messed up, obviously. And I think I might be able to hack around and possibly get it to look the way I want, but then again, I may mess it up even more.

I'm not going to pretend that I understand how the php relates to .css and the layout here, and I don't expect you to explain it to me either. So if it's easier for you to simply fix this for me, somehow, I'm cool with paying you whatever.

I just want to make sure you understand what I want to do. You've seen my layout, you've seen what I tried to do.

Are we on the same page?

[scottz]

Yeah, duh, should have sent that.

Never tried that with hooks, I'm pretty inept at php in general, but I'm willing to give it a shot. What code would I use?

Again, I'm so appreciative of your kind response.

[scottz]

Brad, does my question make any more sense, and is it possible to do this without having to completely reconfigure the whole thing?

[scottz]

Thanks Brad for the quick response, but that's not what I'm trying to do. Take a look at the image in my layout.

I'm simply trying to run a repeating BG image in the header area where the logo and menu items sit. Is this site not set up in a way that allows me to do that? Seems I've done this exact same thing on dozens of sites, but I'm struggling to make it happen on this one.

Now that you can see my layout, does my question make more sense?

[scottz]

Awesome Tom, it actually worked on my client's phone. That's a good sign. Thanks for all the help! I think we can consider this case closed.

[scottz]

My client reported that it still does the same thing, if you have an android, could test it for me?

Thanks

[scottz]

I added the code to my functions.php, is that all I need to do, or do I need to add some script as well?

[scottz]

Thanks so much to both of you. The best solution may be not allowing the top level menus (with submenus) to be links. And I think I will look in to the code snippet as well.

This forum is great, thanks to guys like you.

[scottz]

Actually, yes. It was a mucked up htacces file....created by none other than our old friend super cache.

[scottz]

Thanks man, great advice. And great tutorial.

Did you try this on an Andoid? Because my iphone works perfectly. Just curious.

I am also trying to verify that it is just not 'user error' on my client's part.

[scottz]

Yes, you're right, just posted it there. Thanks again!

[scottz]

Hey, thanks. I already tried that. Generally, I've found that most shortcodes do work in widgets, but it must be something about the way this plugin is built. All the features work great on a page, but not in the widgets. Do you know any other way to get features like..(columns, buttons, progress bars, etc) to work in widgets?

Any suggestions?

Thanks for responding.

[scottz]

Cool, I will leave you a message. You're great, thanks.

[scottz]

Thanks so much for the response Andrea.

Good idea. I suppose I could do that. That might be easier, but I still need to learn how to create and manage my widget areas better. I have customization requests like this pretty often, and I am looking for a resource to handle requests like this. Are you interested, or do you know anyone?

And BTW, is it a good idea to try to move php code from one theme to another?

[scottz]

Oh, and BTW...yes I have sent this message to epik support as well.

[scottz]

It does work with woo categories as well. But I already have 150 products assigned to the default sidebar and I would have to go in to each one and change it. Trying to avoid that if at all possible.
