Do you have a link to your Site? Because that depends on how you’re adding your code in. Everything is supposed to be automatically responsive when added to the theme, but there are certain cases where if you add something and the code you add can override or break the responsive css features. In order to know I would need a link to your site and the page that the divs are located on (also let me know which divs you’re referring to as well). Once you post that then I (or anyone else that sees this) will be able to figure out what could be going on.

Also, if you’ve added custom CSS, sometimes depending how it’s added, it can override/interrupt the default responsive features. To prevent that from happening the code would have to follow the “Responsive CSS Guidelines” which every site regardless of the theme you’re using would have to follow in order to work properly (even on other platforms). I’ll probably be able to see what’s going on once I can take a look, I just need to see it first.

Hi, I’m not sure what you’re asking exactly. Can you explain a bit more in detail what you’re trying to do? This particular child theme doesn’t add or affect a file named xmlrpc.php so if you have an issue with it, it’s either the Genesis Framework, or something external, such as a plugin or custom code.

“I tried to update the thread at https://appfinite.com/topic/help-with-final-tweaks/ but for some reason there was no box at the bottom to add to the thread.”

Anytime that happens just hit your Reload button on your browser. It’s your browser cache – https://appfinite.com/topic/having-trouble-logging-in/ Once you reply at that thread he’ll get a notification and see your reply.

That’s good to know, hopefully they can figure out how to fix it.

Hi, do you have a link to your site?

We can do it a couple ways, either you could remove the content from showing on the portfolio page by editing the page_portfolio.php file in your theme, or you can have those sections hidden by adding code in your style.CSS…..We’ll need a link to your site in order for anyone viewing this post/yoursite to be able to tell you how to do the latter.

For the Text Overlay you’ll probably need to hire someone to add a customization to create what you’re looking for as it could go a bit beyond the scope of support.

But definitely send over a link to your site so I or anyone else reading can tell you which parts of your CSS you can change to hide the content as you’re looking to do.

This is the first time I’ve seen this request 🙂 Usually most people want the logo to be h1 for SEO. The code that causes this to happen comes from the Genesis Framework itself and not the Child theme (Epik). The Epik Child theme only handles the design. So if you want to make changes to that part of your site (The Genesis Framework) then you’ll need to use hooks/filters to modify it. These can be found on the StudioPress site here – http://my.studiopress.com/ Although, I haven’t seen the exact way to change the tags in the way that you’re looking to do. It’s definitely possible, just not sure the proper code you should use just yet. If anyone knows, please post it here. Thanks!

Unfortunately that’s something that will take quite a bit of time and Custom Code, which would kind of go beyond the scope of support.

If I find some tutorials on how to do it then I’ll send you a link.

Edit: Found one…..although I’m not sure if that will work with your version of Epik or not since the post was created in 2013.

You just need to add your slider to the slider widget area titled “Slider Wide“. “Slider Wide” is a full width widget area with no width limitations.

The regular “Slider” widget area is 1140px, which is designed for those that want a slider to fit in line with the theme content width.

Yep this is definitely possible. Just need to add a couple CSS mods, but it’s definitely doable.

@SusieQ FYI when you post in Private only Moderators can view your posts. Regular members/customers can’t see what you’re posting. You would only need to use the Private Reply Option when adding a user/password or a link, other than that, you’ll need to post regularly. I had to contact a Moderator to figure out what you wrote.

To answer your question, in order to push the navigation down more, you can add more space to it on line 1996 in your Style.css file –

.header-image .site-header .widget-area {
	padding: 16px 0;
	padding: 2.5rem 0;
}

It’s recommended to remove the rem line – padding: 2.5rem 0; and just use px instead. Just adjust the px to whatever looks good to you, and that should be it. Here is an example you can start with –

.header-image .site-header .widget-area {
	padding: 140px 0;
}

You got it working, nice! Do you have a link we can check out?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the Genesis Framework offers “Randomizing” as a Feature by default. If this doesn’t exist, you’d probably need to find a plugin that can handle this for you without dealing with the code.

From what I can see, it looks like Genesis will show the latest Posts in that widget, but I don’t see any options for randomizing.

I saw someone asking a similar question – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-genesis-title-toggle-no-title-no-h1-tag using the Genesis Title Toggle Plugin.
Does this particular plugin help at all?

For some reason it’s not showing me the blog page. Do I need to login in order to see it?

I’d be able to tell you what needs to be fixed once I can take a look. Feel free to post privately if needed (use the Private Checkbox).

I honestly haven’t seen an easy way to do this with Genesis. You might have to search for a plugin to customize this (if one exists). If that doesn’t work, then you’d probably have to hire one of the Genesis Devs to create something to make this possible since it doesn’t appear to exist just yet.

You can add a CSS override which will hide it from visually showing up on your site. Just add this to your CSS –

.edd-download .post-info {
	display: none;
}

Which part of your image do you want to stay fixed, because by default, the images aren’t designed to stay fixed, unless you add the proper code to do so.

Also, Appfinite (and the Community) has a One Question/Topic Per Thread Policy to help keep each Thread/Post Organized, which makes it easy for others who are searching for similar topics/solutions to questions/issues. So if you have separate or unrelated questions you’ll need to create threads for each of those questions/topics individually.

Nice site BTW 🙂 I Love Cycles!

The code itself is working fine, now it’s just your image/logo that needs to be re-edited. Your image is probably appearing cut off because the image itself is not centered. The code to have the header image Centered is working, but the actual image is not centered in the photo.

To fix this, just open your image up in Photoshop (if that’s the program you used to create it) and center the image/logo in the very middle.

Just in case what I said sounds confusing, just take a look at your image by itself to see that the logo is off to the right – http://www.williamselectric.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/banner_logo_360x164.png

I don’t have an Android to check, so once you make that adjustment, hit your reload button (to clear the browser cache) and let me know how it looks. Once you do that it should look a lot better.

Yep, you can have cake and eat it with this theme 😉

To have it center on mobile devices only, add this code to your responsive section under line 4023 inside of the max-width: 1023 section –

.site-header .site-title a {
	background-position: center top !important;
}

The section on line 4023 looks like this in the beginning –

/* iPads (portrait)
--------------------------------------------- */

@media only screen and (max-width: 1023px) {

@vwirth Awesome! Glad to hear you’re figuring things out. Your site looks like you know what you’re doing, so great job!

If you run into a specific issue of something that isn’t working quite right be sure and let us know and I’d be glad to point you in the right direction.

Are you saying you added some code in your functions file to add this widget? Or did you add a widget into the header right widget area from the widgets page in your admin? There’s a difference between the two so that’s why I’m asking first.

If you did add code to your functions.php or home template file, can you post the code that you used here so I can test on a local install? It probably just needs to have a priority added to the code. That’s what I’ve done with a similar issue in the past.

I’m not sure what you were trying to show, but the image/link that you posted didn’t show up properly.

You can look at the Epik Forum page https://appfinite.com/forum/epik-theme-support/ at the top there are some code snippets and tutorials that show you how to duplicate the demo homepage. Example – https://appfinite.com/topic/how-to-add-left-and-right-content-for-the-epik-theme-widgets/

Yes you should be able to do this with any Genesis theme. If it works with one Genesis theme, then it will work with another. The reason is because all Genesis Child themes have the same abilities…you’d just need to make the necessary adjustments to the CSS depending on your logo size, child theme, header width, etc.

I looked at your site, but it appears you still have the Education theme setup. Just let us know when you get the Epik theme installed and ready and I (or anyone else that beats me to it) can point you in the right direction in getting this setup.

Do you have a link to your site?

“Trying to think if there is any setting I could have set somewhere which means it isn’t showing up, perhaps?”

I’m not sure, it should work once you add the code in…..unless you have some other code/plugin that is overriding it.

When I added the code from the tutorial it worked. Two arrows showed up at the top of the post. They are small arrows, so make sure when you add the code that you don’t miss it. Once you get the code working, you’ll need to customize the css so it shows up the way you want. At the start it will show up with both arrows on the left, but once you customize the CSS you can have one on the left, and the other on the right. You should also be able to change the arrows to TEXT or whatever you want to be displayed to represent the previous/next links.
