For future visitors the correct site address is http://www.greengardenjournal.com. The menu is now working properly with the change that asdweb advised. The original response from support had nothing to do with the menu formatting being correct, I was being informed that the formatting had always worked correctly and should be now. The link class was to make the custom menu links to work properly. Not a very helpful response, had it not been for  asdweb, I'd still be looking for answers. Thanks again asdweb!

Thank you very much asdweb, that did the trick. Here is what I got back from studiopress support, see if you can understand how what Andrea says will help me with this problem:
Hi;

The theme tutes here:

http://my.studiopress.com/setup/modern-portfolio-theme/

do refer to the menu classes.

Specifically this section, where it says 'linkclass':

<span><a class="linkclass" href="http://demo.studiopress.com/modern-portfolio#about">http://demo.studiopress.com/modern-portfolio#about</a>

Andrea
I don't think they even read the post or looked at the site! What is your take on this?
Thanks again,
Scot

Yes, the middle sidebar. I'll be watching, thanks for fixing the look of the secondary sidebar, I would have had to ask that sooner or later.

[szoumbaris]

Thanks Anitac, you fixed another problem I had, just not the one I was asking about. I wanted the primary sidebar to move into the area currently taken up by the responsive slider so that the slider got smaller and the primary (first) sidebar was right next to it. Any ideas on that?

[szoumbaris]

I want the slider to stop at the same place as the sidebar so they are both even. The sidebar will cause the slider to be smaller since they are now next to each other. This looks more like it will remove the spacing from the sidebar so it sits closer to the top, but is not up next to the slider. Am I correct?

opppsss... didn't read carefully, this didn't work on mobile. sorry....

[szoumbaris]

You can do it with simple html, though I didn't test this in all browsers:

<form>
<p align="center"><input onclick="window.open('http://www.google.com','newwindow', 'width=500, height=500 ');" type="button" name="anythingyouwant" value="Open Sesame" /></p>

</form>

just create a simple html page for each popup window, and insert the correct link for each.

If you change the background color in style.css line 39 to black, the area will be filled with black and cover the whole top area. Also, your menu bar and top bar are not true black, but #202022 so change the background to that and it will match and look better.

I want the same setup, which I have using education child theme and genesis responsive slider. You can see it here:

http://www.protennisweb.com

The problem is that the slider has front slider category posts, which works great, but the blog entries on the front display the newest, so those posts are duplicated just underneath. How do I stop those front slider category posts from showing up on the front page below the slider, which just displays the front slider category. (hope this makes sense)

[szoumbaris]

Not necessary, and I want you to know that I know how much time and effort is involved with helping others on the forums and I do appreciate your help. I was able to re position the secondary menu and also adjust the spacing and now it looks great.

At this point it may seem trivial to you to accomplish this simple task, but it took some time and effort to add this to my bag of tricks. Since I've decided to standardize on studiopress, anything I learn can be applied to the future.

Thanks again.

I did read your code but didn't understand it till you captured the important piece that I need as an excerpt. That comes across as an attitude issue, which is very trying for the paying customer. As we struggle to move along and educate ourselves, please in the future leave out the mild jabs if possible.

By the way that worked so thanks I guess.

[szoumbaris]

can I just reposition the secondary navigation with that command, but place it before header? If so, what would that code look like?

[szoumbaris]

This is what I have now in functions.php in the education folder:

/** Reposition Primary Navigation */

remove_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_nav' );

add_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'genesis_do_nav' );

 

/** Reposition Secondary Navigation */

remove_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_subnav' );

add_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'genesis_do_subnav' );

 

I don't care which nav is which as long as the two I have are: one on the top like magazine and one in the primary nav position.  So can I just move the secondary nav about everything and have that work? would your method do that? Sorry, I haven't done much menu moving so need a little hand holding. thanks.
