Hi,

I need a little help with the opt in I created inside the welcome wide widget.

How do I make this bar thinner? i.e remove some of the padding above or below, but still make sure it stays in the middle of the bar and doesn’t stick to the top or bottom?

Also I am not sure how to make it responsive, someone on another threat replied to me and said to remove the width: 1000px but this didn’t help on mobile view.

Thanks!

Take a look here –
```
#welcome .wrap {
    margin: 0 auto;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 40px 0 0;
    width: 1152px;
}
```
and here –
```
#welcome .widget {
    margin: 0 0 40px;
    overflow: hidden;
}
```
Thats where the spacing is coming from.

In order for anything to be responsive it needs to either not have a width defined, or the width needs to be a percentage. You can do a Google search on Responsive Web Design basics, there are a lot of tutorials out there. Here is one -http://www.splio.com/responsive/

Hi Eric, thanks so much that’s awesome! It’s looking great now. The only other thing I am having trouble with is changing the language for the Spanish and English homepage. Currently the text is added through the Mail Chimp code in the welcome wide widget but I was wondering is there an easy way to add the Spanish text in the css and make that show up on the Spanish homepage?

Thanks, I seriously LOVE this theme!

“is there an easy way to add the Spanish text in the css and make that show up on the Spanish homepage?”

In the css? No, that’s only for adding css code, it won’t show any text or any other code. Unless you’re referring to something else?

Sorry I’m not too familiar with running different languages in WordPress. I know other people are pretty good at it, but I honestly haven’t dealt with it just yet.

Sorry, I meant could I also add the Spanish text in the welcome wide code where the Mail Chimp form code currently is and then add something that will only make that appear on the Spanish homepage.

To make it work for both languages I had to duplicate all the widgets and set up a second homepage but I can’t remember how to duplicate the widgets. The best way around it would be to literally duplicate the welcome wide widget (so one would be welcome wide the other welcome wide english) so I could add a unique opt in for each with different languages but how do I do that again..?

Thanks!

The only way I can think of is to find out if each page adds an ID or Class in the code of the page. Then use that code and add display: none; to each welcome section that you don’t want to appear when viewing each page. You’ll have to look in your source code of each page to see if this exists. Other than that I don’t know of any other ways.
