Do you have a link to your site, or is the link above your site?

Sure, you control the status values on the individual listing entries. Can you elaborate more? Do you have a site link?

Hi there,

Nothing is better than quality content. The way to show the value over the Zillows and Realtor.com info is for the realtor site to have quality, fresh posts of local content that fits their niche or expertise and their keywords for SEO. Then if they decide to spend %% for paid ads they have somewhere to send them. If traffic is only generated via externally, it won't stick. It will take several months unless they already have a following.

I would suggest posting your question in the support area for Visual Composer:

Hi Matt,

That background image area in Minimum Pro wasn't really intended for a logo, you don't have to use that space if you do not want to. I recommend uploading your logo via the header image area already built-in or something.

Hi,

The Regenerate Thumbnails should have worked, however, if your original image is smaller than what is required for the Ambiance theme settings, entry-image (800 x 450) , it will show a gap.

Hmm, I'm not familiar with this particular theme, maybe someone else can chime in. Or, you might reach out to Restored 316 Designs, the theme author.

Does it show up when you go to Appearance => Widgets to view outside of the customizer?

Hi there,

I'm assuming you mean the white space above your footer menu? If so, have a look in your style.css file around line 1473 for this section:

.site-footer {
	background-color: #fff;
	font-size: 16px;
	font-size: 1.6rem;
	line-height: 1;
	padding: 40px 0;
	text-align: center;
}

The line you want to adjust is

padding: 40px 0:

That is shorthand that is saying apply 40px of padding to the top and bottom of the footer area, and 0 to the left and right. Try reducing the 40 to a lower number until it's the distance you'd like. If it reduces the bottom padding too much , you can separate that statement and use padding-top and padding-bottom to have different values. Hope that makes sense!

You can accomplish troubleshooting this in your browser using this tutorial:

Hi there, your site looks nice! Do you mean the image on the listing detail page ? It does appear to show the full image on the demo as 900 x 580 but yet they have a featured image assigned as well, some oddities there. When using the theme, If you use a featured image on the listing (which you need for the listing archive page) it will size it down to 740x285. Which do you prefer?

Hi, looks like you changed your site back to the eleven40 theme so it's difficult to troubleshoot. If you change it back, make sure you have the correct image size selected in the Genesis => Theme Settings => Content Archive settings, they are large -- you can view the instructions for the Ambiance Pro theme setup here:

If you have a file in your theme that the Genesis framework also has, it will use your file first. I recommend using the plugin Query Monitor to see what template is being used so you can be sure.

I see what you mean, the answer is still the same -- the mobile devices are defaulting to the widest part of the page which is those two ads. If you remove those temporarily, I bet your site will display normally on the phone. To add them back, maybe there is a plugin to serve up the ads that is mobile-friendly....otherwise you'll need to see if you can customize the ad width.

Ok....it sounds like you want a homepage with a layout of widgets you can populate. The sample theme doesn't come with a front-page.php file, which is what other Genesis child themes have that create the widgetized homepage. If you'd like to make your own, here is a handy tutorial that can walk you through that:

Create a Widgetized Custom Home Page in Genesis Child Theme WordPress

The above tutorial offers a link to the files created and you might just take those and incorporate into the latest sample theme that you have now.

Hi there,

Your posts look nice and centered on the iPhone 5 simulator I use in Chrome. The reason your site is bloated out wide is from the two ads you have...one at the top and one at the bottom, those are using widths that are wider than the mobile view and distort the view so it slides horizontally to the right.

Hi there,

Here is a tutorial that might help:

Or, if you want to search for more, using the phrase split navigation and centered menus in Genesis.

That is quite a big change, basically you'd be creating the theme from scratch. I recommend buying the Altitude Pro theme so you can have the actual code and functionality.

All the links I tried on the homepage work, and the blog posts links work as well. Can you be more specific on what is not working for you?

Link to site is requiring a password.

Hi there,

Did you end up solving this? When I view in mobile it shows to shrink the image like I would expect.
