Not a silly question! But yes..I did change it within the CSS.

@Kate, I am having the exact same problem. And it appears that we are using the same child theme (lovely).

I have moved the fonts under the main theme file (not the child theme) and it still doesn't seem to be working for me.

This is what I have (generated from Font Squirrel):

@font-face {
font-family: 'pacificoregular';
src: url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.eot');
src: url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'), url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/lovely/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.woff') format('woff'), url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), url('http://www.heidisweymouth.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/fonts/Pacifico-webfont.svg#pacificoregular') format("svg");
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

Any thoughts??

Many, many thanks!

I got it! I also had to add this:

//* Remove the default header
remove_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_do_header' );

//* Add custom header
add_action( 'genesis_header', 'sk_do_header' );
function sk_do_header() {

echo '';
//do_action( 'genesis_site_title' );
//do_action( 'genesis_site_description' );

}
and it worked!

Bumping this post

Hi Susan,

The link in the thread only talks about making it a full-width header, which I have already done. Is it this the part of the thread you wanted me to see:

"Thank, I fixed it by remove the line below from the media queries session @media only screen and (max-width: 767px)

.header-image .site-title a {
background-size: contain !important;
}"

If so, I'm not sure I understand what he did here…

Thanks!

That didn't work for my client. She received this error message. Do you think it's because the site has a Coming Soon plugin activated? It won't launch until next week:

Quantcast could not reach the following site(s):

We will send you another message when your traffic reports are ready on Quantcast.com. If one or more of your sites could not be verified, it could be that the Quantcast tag was not properly implemented.

You guys are so awesome! Thank you!!

Donna

[wickedsimple]

Ahh....I adjusted it to show the full "excerpt", which in this case is an image and then removed the featured image and it gave me the desired result.

Thank you!!!

Donna

[wickedsimple]

Cleared the cache. Checked to make sure none of the plugins modified the featured images. Still the same. This site is going to be the end of me, LOL!

Here's the link:

Thanks for your help, Brad!

This is where I changed it:

add_filter( 'genesis_get_image_default_args', 'filter_first_featured_image_loop' );
/**
* @author Brad Dalton
* @example http://wpsites.net/web-design/customize-the-first-featured-image-in-the-home-page-loop/
* @copyright 2014 WP Sites
*/
function filter_first_featured_image_loop( $defaults ) {
global $wp_query;
if( 0 == $wp_query->current_post && is_home() ) :
the_post_thumbnail( 'full', array( 'class' => 'first-image' ) );
else:
return $defaults;
endif;
}

But nothing happened

[wickedsimple]

Hi Brad,

I came here looking for the answer to the same question! I would like the featured image in the first post on the homepage to be full size. I copied the code in your link above http://wpsites.net/web-design/customize-the-first-featured-image-in-the-home-page-loop/ to my functions.php page and then as a test, I put in your sample CSS:

.first-image {
height: 360px;
}

but nothing happened. I would like that first image to be full size as my client sometimes has an image as her blog post (without any additional text).

Donna

Still didn't work.

[wickedsimple]

Okay...I think I've been working on this site too long because I just realized that the post title has ALWAYS been below the featured image (it didn't magically change overnight!)

Having said that, I would still like to try to have the Post title above the image, if possible. Perhaps I'm just placing the code in the wrong place. This is where I had it at the bottom of my front-page.php file:

}

genesis();

remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_do_post_image', 8 );
add_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_image', 8 );

[wickedsimple]

I tried that but it didn't work. I added that code to the end of my front-page.php file. Should it go somewhere else?

[wickedsimple]

Brad,

I got my site back. I'm getting pretty good at troubleshooting these days! I used WP Debug and was able to find what line of code I had to remove to get it back. All's good in the world, except I still don't know how to add the previous and next buttons to a blog post?

Donna

[wickedsimple]

Brad,

I just tried doing this to add the previous and next buttons to my site and now I can't get into my site. I did copy the code from the functions.php file before I made the change. How can I restore my functions.php file back to what it was originally? I can't log into my WP dashboard or see anything but can get into my host.

This is what I had added:

//* Remove the post navigation (requires HTML5 theme support)
add_action( ‘genesis_entry_content’, ‘genesis_do_post_content_nav’, 12 );

Brad,

Worked like a charm for what I wanted to do. On a similar veinn, in the User Profile widget I want to change the photo that is used for the avatar to something other than the avatar photo associated with WP. This is what I did but it didn't change anything. Am I close?

#user-profile-2 .avatar {
background-image: url('http://www.analisamendmentblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/lisaprofilepic.jpg');
}

Brilliant! This is exactly what I needed. Thanks, Brad!!

Here is the most important question. Is this a new site? if so and no one needs to access it now, just install WordPress as if you were launching it, then install the Ultimate Coming Soon Page. This plugin makes it so only logged in users would be able to see and edit the site. You develop here on the live domain. Everyone sees a welcome page with your customized message.

I literally just installed that on a site I'm currently working on. I use it on all my sites that are okay with not being "live" for a bit.

For all others, I do what the others suggested and I create it in a subdomain and then use BackupBuddy to save the site and upload it to the "real" domain.

[wickedsimple]

Brilliant! Thank you for your quick reply - that worked! The graphic is only a placeholder graphic for now as I still have to design the logo and other elements. So I'll wait to play around with the spacing until I have the final graphic done.

I REALLY appreciate your help!!
