    Okay, I have the site up. It's at michaelmossey.com

    The right menu button is an example of a drop-down menu. The background of it is mostly white. I want to make the background green.

    The site is local, but yes, I can push it out to my host company's server for you. But, I haven't done that with WordPress before... do you have a recommended way to deploy a WordPress site? What I'd like to do long-term is (1) do all development locally, then (2) push it out without any fuss. I don't want to have to move the database separately or anything like that, just want to know that my server will exactly mirror my local site.

    Thanks. I did in fact inspect the markup and styling. I guess I need to be specific then, in my question.

    I can't change the background color of the sub menus. (Just the *sub* menus.)

    I was able to change the background color of the main menu buttons by styling the

  • (or maybe it was the ) element. The selector was something like

    .genesis-nav-menu li {
    ...
    }

    But the sub menus stayed the same color, white. I tried every combination of selectors I could think of, and the sub menu background color never changed.

Let me clarify. I want no sidebars. That is why I mentioned full-width layout. Not because I want it to be very wide.

The idea of setting the text width is a basic need of any website. Text is less readable with very long lines. Are you saying that such a very basic need of graphic layout is not possible?

I don't think adjusting the padding is a good solution. That will make it narrower, but the actual width will be too depending on the browser size. What about setting a max width?

How do I "remove the default header in front page only"?

can you give an example of this coding in the front-page.php or functions.php files?

It's the Genesis theme, with the example child theme. I don't have anything live right now, and it's constantly changing anyway. Just looking for what I need to know if I'm going to have a different header on the front page vs. other pages.
