        Bruce, I am using an HP Pavilion 27 inch monitor. Big at full resolution. Your website looked absolutely perfect on all four browsers. I shrank the image too..and no issues.

          Hey there. I looked at your link on Chrome, Firefox, IE, and MS Edge browser…..ALL these show your site perfectly (as the Appfinite demo). Your white text is perfectly centered above the 2nd widget. Is there a cache issue either on your admin side or the server? Really looks perfect.

            In looking at your link, you are dealing with posts, not portfolio. Same solution,
            but do it in functions.php

            similar to this.

            //* Modify the Genesis content limit read more link
            add_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'epik_read_more_link' );
            function epik_read_more_link() {
            	return '... <p><a class="more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '">Read More →</a></p>';
            }

            It is in TWO places in your theme, one in functions.php, the other in page_portfolio.php

              Look in your portfolio (page_portfolio.php) funchtions…

              Something like this:

              // Custom Read More link
              add_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'portfolio_read_more_link' );
              add_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'portfolio_read_more_link' );
              add_filter( 'the_content_more_link', 'portfolio_read_more_link' );
              	function portfolio_read_more_link() {
              		return '<a class="button more-link" href="' . get_permalink() . '" rel="nofollow">Read More</a>';
              }<!--formatted--><!--formatted-->

              The LAST LINE >Read More< is the text to change. So you can make it >Read full article<

                You are correct. I forgot about that. So sorry.

                I have the new Epik and the old Epik working on two different sites and cannot find any obvious issue comparing my two to yours. Something in the translaton. Out of my league. Good luck.

                  Temporary solution:

                  Line 2646 of your .css

                  Change to this:

                  .portfolio p {
                  color: #fff;
                  }

                  It will turn the text white, making it invisible. It’s still there, but unseen.

                      You can download the new Epik theme if you purchased it from Appfinite..by using the “MY ACCOUNT” link at the bottom of this website.

                      FYI the new Epil ver. 1.5 has some big changes. The header is different, as is the color choices (gone)you now can use the color selector for infinite choices. Added are “fade in” effect, the header widgit is gone..there is a new menu for the footer (NICE!!) and many more changes.

                      The new version is VERY nice. However, switching themes can cause you to lose any customizatins you have added to your existing theme. Tour the demo of the new Epik. I updated one of my sites, but not another because I needed some of the features on the old version per the client.

                        First, what were you trying to accomplish? If you wanted to create a whole new color option (such as the blue, pink, red, gray), or were you only trying to change a couple of the colors here and there?

                        Creating a “new” color scheme can be done by taking one of the colors you’ll never use (maybe Pink?) and edit the heck out of it…knowing that if you goof it up, it won’t show simply by selection of another color in the admin customizer. You actually can create a new one by overwriting existing, or copying and then editing. It requires slight change to the color section in your Functions.php file (you add another color name to that section) and it will then become an opion choice in the drop down menu.

                        Go to your website and use “inspect element” in your browser. You can highlight all the sections, or pieces of each page and it shows you the .css code. You can change (edit) the code while using the inspect element and it shows you what your changes do. So you can see the color hex code, and you can either change it, or on the right side there generally is a color icon before the code. You can change the color there, even “grab” a color from elsewhere on the page to copy it.

                        The changes disappear when you refresh the page or exit the inspect..so take notes as to what you changed, then you go into your actual .css to apply the same change. It is actually fun.

                        I went into your page example and set all the colors back to #fff (white) to clean up the page to see what you had changed.

                        Your changing ALL the color code to the new color can sometimes not work, as some colors are for hover or backgrounds in different areas.

                                I gave up trying. Verified all css was unchanged…from original theme, and no conflicting plugins. I had to reinstall the “Slick Nav” mobile menu. This time I used the Plugin. Simple interface. Now the menu works on the Iphone.

                                  Allison,

                                  Glad you’re back up.

                                  You should “copy” your functions.php and your .css and any other code file and save it as a safeguard. Editing the functions.php via the Admin panel thru your WordPress theme (control panel) is risky. If you goof up any punctuation, or leave off a { ” or . or anything it can give the “white screen of death”.

                                  Better to use your Hosting C-panel to edit, so you can get back in if a mistake is made, and use FTP.
                                  Far, far safer.

                                  (I’ve done it once. That cold, shiver you get the first time you do it is not fun).

                                          The DEMO has a “Motivation” video in the flexible widget. It auto plays. You need to go to your widgets and remove the video URL.

                                          Any website will do this. The widget can contain whatever you want, and in this case it’s something you don’t want.

                                            OK I am stumped. I did not see your footer and was focused on the VISA image.

                                            I tried it on my website as well and it did the same thing. Gonna have to play with this some more.

                                                Around line 1260 of your .css is where you change the color of the menu text

                                                .genesis-nav-menu a:focus,
                                                .genesis-nav-menu a:hover {

                                                }

                                                The #00647b is the same as the widget call to action button, but it doesn’t look good on the header background. You can use “inspect element” on your browser and play with it to find what looks good.

                                                    I just viewed your SHOPPING CART page and the credit card logo images all look fine. I do not see any issue with your other images on that page, nor on your other web pages. Should not affect anything other than the images controlled by:

                                                    .woocommerce img, .woocommerce-page img

                                                    But it looks like you have dumped Woocommerce and are using a different shopping card.

                                                      You have the max-width set to “100%” It is going to fill the space with that setting.

                                                      Use “11%” and it aligns the card images into a single line (at least on my screen size) so you may want to play with it to find what works for your desired look.

                                                      .woocommerce img, .woocommerce-page img {
                                                          height: auto;
                                                          max-width: 11%;
                                                      }

                                                      The above is the area to look for in the plugin settings/ .css

                                                        You need to install the Woocommerce plugin. The theme “supports” that plugin.

                                                            Also, check your .php memory limit and upload maximum file size: that could cause the problem depending on what size image you are trying to upload. You can see what it is set for in your .httacccess file. You may need to increase it, or check with your host provider to see if they have a limit set on your account.

                                                              Looking at your .css, you have a fixed width of 800px for the header. This is affecting the widget and the responsive sizing on smaller screens.

                                                              Changing it to “100%” allows the header image to be fluid and automatically resize:

                                                              /* Title Area
                                                              ——————————————— */

                                                              .title-area {
                                                              font-family: “Martel Sans”,sans-serif;
                                                              font-weight: 600;
                                                              float: left;
                                                              padding: 0;
                                                              width: 100%;
                                                              }

                                                              Also, you need to add this bit of code to the bottom of your .css to allow the header image to be sized (contained).

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

                                                              You might (using “inspect element” on your browser) to change some of your alterations to the .css.
                                                              It looks like you have adjusted some widths here and there. I took out your complete .css and replaced it with the original .css from Epik, and everthing worked..so you might have some conflicting code somewhere.

                                                                If the new header logo is the proper size allowed, it should not be an issue. Unless the .php file was changed. If you look at the file you have “active” and compare it to the original theme (you can use a neat program called Diff Checker

                                                                https://www.diffchecker.com/

                                                                and see if there is something amiss.

                                                                And assuming your new file is properly formatted/compressed for the web (does not exceed your file size upload settings?).

                                                                    You go to your dashboard, APPEARANCE – EDITOR. Then on the side is a listing (TEMPLATES) of all the .php files and at the bottom of the column is the style.css.

                                                                    Be sure that the menu at the top is showing your child theme (Vintage) and not Genesis. You should NEVER edit the Genesis files.

                                                                    That said, be very careful. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE with the “cut and paste” or typing of your code, leaving off any punctuaton, bracket, comma, etc…it can give you the “White Screen of Death”.

                                                                      I downloaded one of your images and used Photoshop to “save for web” with low .JPEG resolution. It dropped the image size to 249kb..a tremendous savings. The image looks perfect for web viewing even at the smaller size. Might want to format your images to load faster, and it will improve your website speed score using Google or other speed checks for your site.

                                                                        In other words, on a large screen, “100%” will be your full image size, of 1600 x 1050.
                                                                        When you shrink the size, then leaving the size fixed at “px” instead of “%” won’t allow it to automatically resize dowm to “100%” of the available screen size.

                                                                        in reply to: GURU and IMAGERY Themes on a Tablet. #17687

                                                                            Other thing, you have “right click” disabled. I couldn’t use the “Inspect Element” to view the code to your site, so the above is from the Aspire Demo. Your actual code may be different. However, the Site Navigation section is what you need to play with to tweak your colors.

                                                                              You can upload any image into this area, and as long as a widget is active (ie. text widget) it will show on the home page. The image won’t appear unless there is a widget active, and an empty text widged is all you need, even if you don’t add content into the text widget.

                                                                              in reply to: Sub Menu @ Media Only and (max-width 767px) #17370

Epik is a very nice, flexible theme. I use it for three websites. Wes did a great job. In fact this theme can almost look like several different themes, what with the widgetized options.

                                                                                                You do not have a cache plugin installed? Deactivate it if so during any customizations.

                                                                                                I am going back to look at your site.

                                                                                                  /* Full width header, no widgets */
                                                                                                  
                                                                                                  .title-area .site-title a {
                                                                                                      background-position: center center!important;
                                                                                                      float:none!important;
                                                                                                      margin-left:auto!important;
                                                                                                      margin-right:auto!important;
                                                                                                  }

                                                                                                  Add that at the very bottom of your style.css and save, then clear your cache. It centers your logo horizontally.

                                                                                                    // Enable shortcodes in widgets
                                                                                                    add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');<!--formatted-->

                                                                                                    This is for some themes which don’t support shortcodes. I tried a couple shortcodes on my Epik theme and they work without adding this.

                                                                                                    A link to your site would be very helpful to see what is going on. Otherwise this is all academic.

                                                                                                      The above, place in you theme functions.php file at the bottom.

                                                                                                        I just looked at your site. The logo has been removed, and the .css changes are not showing.

                                                                                                        Did you remove them?

                                                                                                        Use “Inspect Element” on your site and add the changes and at least here on my end they worked.
