OK.. Thank You. Some of the reviews say the plugin is not all that easy.. but I'll give a try.

[Sherry]

OK.. thank you.

I really don't understand how it works or how to make a page with the form on it.. but I'll give it another try.

[Sherry]

OK.. Great.. Thanks!

I'll go watch the video.. hopefully learn something 🙂

[Sherry]

OK.. Thank You Again.

I Installed Ninja Forms. It appears I will need to hire someone to configure this thing.

[Sherry]

Yikes! I don't have anything that says custom php .. where is that supposed to be?

The only php files I have are theme functions and theme defaults.. as well as front page and landing page.

If I screw up the functions file ( as I did a few days ago) I can always upload the original and I am good to go.

If I screw up something where there is no original file to upload.. how will I ever get back in?

[Sherry]

Ahhh.. much better 🙂 Thank You so much.

I am having the same problem. Previously I have put the following into the functions file of Lifestyle.

/** Remove the post info function */
remove_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info' );
?>

I tried putting this into the functions file for this site but evidently it doesn't work in Lifestyle Pro.

I have already been to the page Brad suggested.. found it when trying to Google the question.. but that page is very confusing.

Do I want to customize the entry header ?? remove the entry header markup ?? remove the entry meta ?? remove the entry title ??

Hard to know since I don't know what the entry header markup is.. or the entry meta.. ?? Have NO idea what they are talking about. HELLLP!

I have previously put the following into the functions file of Lifestyle so posts will not have dates:

/** Remove the post info function */
remove_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info' );
?>

I tried putting it into the functions file for this site but evidently it doesn't work in Lifestyle Pro.. the post still has a date.

If you know the code.. I would prefer not to have dates on the posts. If the author's name gets eliminated with the code as well that's OK too.

[Sherry]

OK.. fixed it! Thank you so much! I never realize how much I DON'T know until I come into these forums where people like you are sooo knowledgeable.

Also.. I purposely left my old original (circa 1998) site outside of the blog, as I have a Form Mail form for people to fill out to request information.

I don't know how to make that form in WP.. so just linked to the form that is outside of the blog.

Is there a form that I might be able to configure fairly easily?

[Sherry]

Paste the entire contents in a WHAT ? If I knew what I was doing.. I wouldn't get myself into these messes.

That's the whole problem.. I don't know what a lot of those things are in the Editor. I just change the color to 00FF00 and see what turns bright green.

Anyway.. I went into the Lifestyle Pro folder on my computer and uploaded the original functions.php file back into the lifestyle-pro folder on the server.

I was finally able to log in.. so now let's see if I can keep from messing anything else up.. whew!

Back to the original problem. I tried once again to put a text widget in the home top.. this time I got it right. It looks great.. Thanks!

Meanwhile.. Thank You so much for your help.

Let me know if you can tell me where I need to go to remove some of the padding from below the image.. (above the footer). Do I need to remove the padding from the margin-bottom (see below)

.lifestyle-pro-home .featuredpost img {
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-bottom: 2rem;
}

.lifestyle-pro-home .featured-content .entry {
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-bottom: 2rem;
padding-bottom: 20px;
padding-bottom: 2rem;
}

OMG.. I changed the font from Droid Sans to Open Sans in the Editor but it was not working properly. I have the extension.. What Font.. when I held it over the font it said only sans.

I couldn't figure out what the problem was and after looking around I discovered that in the functions.. or the default or somewhere it said Droid Sans.. so I changed the Droid to Open.

What seems really weird is that the site is up and working fine.. except that the pages are loading a little herky-jerky like.

Crap! Now what do I do? I can't re-install and start all over.. I have spent the last 2 days getting it to look the way it does.

I have only made a couple of other sites using WP. Guess I should stick with Dreamweaver.. hard to teach old dogs new tricks 🙁

[Sherry]

Thank you for your response.

I tried as you suggested.. but all that shows up on the page is the HTML. I don't know how to put it into the back end so it doesn't just have HTML on the page. Maybe I didn't do it right.. ??

Anyway.. now I have more problems. I am not very good with WP yet. I have been designing my websites in Dreamweaver for years.. so I do know some HTML and css.. but in trying to use it with WP it does not always work. I guess there are things in the default and functions.. and I don't dare mess with those.. it is a lot of very confusing looking stuff.

I made a few more changes in the Editor.. removed the margin at the top.. changed some font sizes.. nothing major.. everything seemed to be OK.

I logged out.. my site seems to be working just fine.. however, I am unable to login now. I get the messages below:
