Hi Dilasso,

The plugin won't work with add_theme_support( 'custom-header' ); active. That's usually on the child theme file, not the main core files. I'm not familiar with Dynamik and how it works or if it already has something in it for the logo.

Alternatively, if you don't want to use the plugin, you can use the default custom header, I made the plugin though because I'm not a fan of that method.

I personally like to take the easy way out and use a plugin called Types and Views. Custom Post Type and Page Template all done in less than an hour =D

You'll have to add the function in the functions.php file for custom header support:

/** Add support for custom header **/
add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array( 'width' => 960, 'height' => 100 ) );

or use a plugin like this to upload the logo: https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-logo-uploader/

Looks like you figured it out =)

The header image usually creates a background and you can manipulate it with some background positioning for CSS.

There's a plugin called Easy Genesis Logo Uploader (https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-logo-uploader/)
that will actually make the logo an image, which is a bit easier to manipulate, you just need to remove the custom header function.

I always use Duplicator and it works great!

In your scripts you have this file:

http://www.absolutewireedm.com/wp/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/lightbox/static/lightbox_context.js?ver=4.1

and it looks like your light box script is targeting ALL images, and since your logo is an image, it's popping up the light box. You'll have to re look at the script settings

WOo! That's a really tough one since a lot of plugins will sometimes have your javascript or css in a position where, it needs to load before everything else.

Sorry, I don't know any quick fixes, but those tests can sometimes be on and off. I would check out pingdom tools and run it like 3 or 4 times, also if you go on the site itself, is it loading slow? Could be server, messed up plugins...

As long as the site is loading quickly when you go on it or your users, then I wouldn't stress too much about the blocking scripts.

Yeah, It may not be over your head, but it's not something you learn over night, know what I mean.

You can always copy and paste someones code, and tinker around with it, but you'll need the time and patience to go through each bit.

If you have it, I would suggest implementing Sridhar's code, then messing around and seeing what works, what breaks, etc... but if you don't have the time and just want to get it up and working. I would suggest Views. Simple HTML/CSS/ and a few shortcodes and you'd be set. But that's just me, you ultimately know what's best for you =)

If you're using Types, have you tried the Views plugin? You'd be able to build an archive page in no time at all without touching a single line of PHP.

If you copied the page template, you'll have to start editing the loop with the new custom fields. I'm not gonna lie, if you don't know PHP that well, it's going to be a bit complex.

You can take a look at Sridhar's site, he's got a bunch to look at:

http://sridharkatakam.com/custom-archive-page-template-genesis/
http://sridharkatakam.com/single-archive-templates-custom-post-type-genesis/

Those should definitely put you on if you want to code the page out.

To remove it just find this in style.css

.genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a {
background-color: #64c9ea;
color: #fff;
}

and change the background color to transparent, or any color you like.

If the edits were made to the child themes files directly, then yes, they will be lost. But plugin info would stay the same.

You need to define $loop_counter before using it. Gen 2.0 removed it but kept it in the legacy loop for older verions.

$loop_counter = $wp_query->current_post;

Once that's defined then you can use global $loop_counter

Take a look at this post: http://surefirewebservices.com/development/genesis-framework/easy-genesis-grid-loop-for-your-theme which is a refinement of the grid loop with 2 functions.

If you're using Views to display the content, there's a limit counter in there. Find the view you used, and in the top section, you'll see something that says limit and offset.

You would just add your code to whatever you want fixed. There's a few ie hacks, but to be honest I haven't used these in a very long time.

Add an _ before your style.

style {
margin-top:10px;
_margin-top:15px; /* old ie style */
}

That should work but I'm not sure if it will work on all versions of ie or just 7,

There's lots of IE7 hacks, but now a days there are more and more companies just not supporting it. Especially since ie10 is already out.

Ask yourself if you absolutely even need it to work in ie7 based on your traffic. Just see what browser their using.

Otherwise, you can add a style sheet specifically for ie like so:

ie7 only

<!--[if IE 7]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7.css">
<![endif]-->

and ie 7 and lower:

<!--[if lte IE 7]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7-and-down.css" />
<![endif]-->

Oo boy, you have to really be careful when you edit your .htaccess files, it's very powerful stuff. Take a look at this post: http://surefirewebservices.com/tutorials/category-redirection-for-wordpress

I would try to revert your htaccess to it's original state, then follow the instructions on the post, you should be good after that.

You can use BuddyPress: http://buddypress.org/

That's for social network building, for something like behance though, you may need a lot of customization...

Here you go, straight from my blog. This snippet will fix your duplicate image issues...

add_filter('the_content','wpi_image_content_filter',11);
 
function wpi_image_content_filter($content){
 
    if (is_home() || is_front_page()){
      $content = preg_replace("/<img[^>]+\>/i", "", $content);
    }
 
    return $content;
}

You can change the conditionals to anything you want. Currently they're targeting the homepage.
