      Are you referring to the section titled – “Calix Imperium”? The width is set to 300px. You can adjust this code to change it –

      #home-feature-bg-alt .featuredpage .page,
      #home-feature-bg-alt .featuredpost .post {
          float: left;
          margin: 0;
          overflow: hidden;
          padding: 0 0 5px;
          width: 300px;
      }

      Should be line 1374 in your style.css file if you’re using an editor, if not, just search for that code and you’ll find it.

        @ViolinSugar Looks fine on my end. Everything is showing up centered as it should. I’m viewing from a Macbook Air, Chrome, and my browser width is extended to the max. What size is your browser width? Even when I adjust it, it still stays in place just like the Optimal demo.

            Actually Brian Gardner removed the one-fifth part from the css….not Wes (or Appfinite). I remember him mentioning why on Twitter not too long ago, and it was due to measurements or something.

            You can look at the Genesis Sample theme to see that it’s no longer there – http://www.genesisframework.com/columns/ ….and the reason its not in your theme is because Wes develops everything from scratch on top of the Genesis Sample theme.

            But of course you can always add it if you want, you’ll just have to figure out how you’re going to add the measurements.

                  The easiest way is to just copy the Welcome widget code in your home.php then rename it to something different, then do the same thing in your functions.php file when registering the widget at the bottom.

                  When you copy the welcome widget, make sure and place it in the order that you want it to appear.

                        Here is the class assigned to that h3 – “comment-reply-title”

                        So you could add that to your css and copy/paste the styles that you created for the h1 tag.

                          They aren’t centered because you have them set to float left. You can’t really center anything that is floating left or right. You would need to go through each div for those fields and either change them to ‘display: inline’ or just remove the floats altogether. You would have to do this for the widget and the code inside of the widget.

                            The reason you don’t see it in the child theme is because it’s created by the Genesis Framework itself, not the child theme. The child theme just adds the design, the Genesis Framework adds all of the other functionality. You can take a look here at the StudioPress tutorials on how to remove or edit the footer area – http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/footer/

                              These are custom widgets you’ve added right? I don’t see any widths defined to any of the widget areas, so you’d need to do that to the div’s that you created. You would also need to center them by adding something like –

                              margin: 0 auto;
                              text-align: center;
                              width: 1140px;

                              ..which depends if you’re trying to center them.

                              You said its too far to the right? It’s showing up all the way on the left for me.

                                @francky you may want to take a look here – http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_the_Support_Forums

                                Specifically this –

                                Forums are NOT Paid Support
                                Volunteers give of their time and expertise to answer your questions. They are not paid or rewarded in any way, except by the occasional thank you. Be nice to them and they will be nice to you.”

                                and this –

                                Be Patient
                                Everyone that answers questions on the Forum is a volunteer. Volunteers don’t get paid to answer questions. Please be patient when waiting for an answer. At times frustrations can get the better of people…it happens to everyone, but sometimes you may just have to wait a bit before a question gets answered. Remember that WordPress has a world-wide user base, so you may have to wait for someone in a faraway place to come online to help you out!”

                                and this –

                                Be Courteous
                                Politeness counts. Simply asking “please” and saying “thank you” are easy things to do, and are always appreciated by those taking the time out of their day to help you.”

                                The WordPress forum rules are the same pretty much everywhere you go. Issues are usually fixed here as long as it’s one of the themes causing it. That’s the purpose of the forum. You mentioned how come people don’t support you, when if you actually read the post it shows that they clearly are. Support doesn’t mean designing your website for you. Support means fixing any issues caused by the theme that you are using. I can understand your frustration, but that’s not the fault of the themes here or any where else. That’s due to your own lack of knowledge when dealing with code, it’s not anyone else’s problem or responsibility. It’s up to you to learn how to code and use Genesis as it was intended. Doing some simple Googling could answer nearly all of your questions.

                                Notice how Woothemes has paid support that you have to purchase every year now? It’s not cheap. So please don’t ruin it for the rest of us that actually enjoy using this free forum.

                                Thats just my “2 cents”

                                    You can find the Genesis 2.0 changes by Googling them. I came across many myself just now.

                                    Since Brian’s link isn’t working try this – http://www.carriedils.com/genesis-2-0-hooks/ There are plenty more out there as well.

                                    Only replace what you see in your functions file….if you haven’t changed anything in your functions file, try swapping it out with the 1.3 version to save a lot of time. Same thing with the portfolio and home.php files. The css file is the only thing you’d need to manually convert if you’ve made changes.

                                        You can also do a Google search for even more tutorials and resources on how to do this. I’ve seen a lot of blog posts on how to do this recently, so it should be pretty easy to get it done since so many people have tutorials on it.

                                          Manually means, replacing the old markup with the new markup. Brian has info on this already – http://www.briangardner.com/code/genesis-html5-markup/

                                          And also replacing the old hooks with the new hooks. Info on that can be found here – http://www.briangardner.com/code/genesis-html5-loop-hooks/

                                          There’s not really a step by step needed if you follow those 2 links plus the links from the other page listing all of the resources.

                                          Basically just go through your css and replace the old code with the new by doing a “Find/Replace” function. This can be done with any css editor. Same thing for your other theme files. If you don’t see the code from the links above in your files, then don’t worry about it. You only need to replace what you see. Depending on which OS you have, you can do a search for a free html/css/php editor and it will make it much faster to do. Just make sure and save a copy of your current theme in case you make a mistake.

                                            From what I’m seeing the image stretches as far as it’s supposed to. If its 1152px and the width of the header is 1152px then thats as far as it will go. The baseball field reaches all the way to the end of the 1152px wide header. Are you expecting it to go beyond that or something?

                                                People, there is no reason to be bitter! Think about what you’re getting for $24 dollars! You are getting premium quality themes, and premium quality support for a low price. When you keep making post after post every single day, and then get the answers and solutions to all of your questions, there is NO reason you should be complaining, ever. This is the reason Woothemes had to raise their prices. People just want to take take take and not give much of anything nowadays.

                                                Pro tip: Anytime you’re about to complain about a service that you’re already getting for free, sit back, take a deep breath and remember, IT’s FREE! These are real people (not robots) who are taking the time out of their busy days to help you, it’s not the other way around.

                                                This is in response to the user I remember seeing not too long ago trolling the forums.

                                                  Just copy/rename the welcome code that you see on the home.php file. Whatever you rename it to, do the same for the register part in your functions file. Create or duplicate/rename the css from the Welcome, and thats it. This a shortcut and it’s much easier than trying to type all of the necessary code here.

                                                        Let’s try this, can you create a sample page that is showing the issue you’re taking about? I think it would be easier to just look at your code to see if anything sticks out, because everything is working ok on my end as well.

                                                        What you’re describing as happening shouldn’t happen in the way it does, and doesn’t happen for me. It all works consistently. If there’s something in your code throwing things off (which I don’t know why there would be) then you may just have to add the “!important” code to the parts of your site that need it (theme colors).

                                                        There’s only a few places in those theme color sections that you would need to do it so it’s not really a big deal if you have to do it.

                                                            Customer

                                                              Sorry, I assumed everyone knew how to add a text widget….that would be considered WordPress basics, which has nothing to do with Epik or Genesis. As @Terence mentioned, I’d highly recommend you get familiar with the way WordPress works before continuing, because it’s not really Appfinite or any other theme developers job to explain or cover the basics when they are already covered on the WordPress site itself. Since you have to download WordPress before you use a theme, we assume that you understand how it works since the documentation is on their site.

                                                              So definitely take a look at the codex….you may even want to try out something like WP101.com as I’ve heard it is very helpful.

                                                              Thanks for the help and the links @Terence

                                                              Customer

                                                                I’m pretty sure it’s not the theme causing the issue….since it’s just a child theme and there isn’t any code inside of it that would affect that particular part. Do you have any other plugins that you are using that could somehow be preventing your widgets from showing up? They are supposed to show up normally just like any other widget of any other theme.

                                                                Make sure you have the latest WordPress, and the latest Genesis as well. If none of that fixes it, can you please post a screenshot so I can see what you’re seeing? ……and if that doesn’t work, you’ll probably need someone to login to your site to figure out whats going on. I’m pretty sure it’s something external since there are a lot of people using this theme that haven’t had that issue (including myself)

                                                                kronos
                                                                Customer

                                                                  As stated in the tutorials, you would place those inside any of your widget or content areas. The Epik theme has a lot of widgets areas, so you may want to double check your widget page, because they should definitely be there.

                                                                  in reply to: How To Make Site Mobile Display Same As In Theme Demo? #5670
                                                                  kronos
                                                                  Customer

                                                                    Yes that image is just an image he created in Photoshop to add as a SAMPLE. It’s not a screenshot from an actual iPhone or anything. it’s just a sample demo image. I assumed you already knew that since there are other sample images like the iPhone/iPad sample text, etc. I wouldn’t go based on demo images, developers create them just to fill things out….or to show you what you CAN do if you wanted to. The point of that image was to show that it is mobile responsive….I’m guessing he chose that image because it wouldn’t look good showing the icons vertically on a SAMPLE image….

                                                                    But like I said before, you can easily make your site look like that if you want….you’d just have to edit the welcome area in your responsive css. You should be able to look around line 4006 in the responsive section and remove the width –

                                                                    .welcome-feature-1, 
                                                                    .welcome-feature-2, 
                                                                    .welcome-feature-3 {
                                                                        margin: 0 auto;
                                                                        width: 100%;
                                                                    } 

                                                                    By removing that width it will automatically use the width from the other responsive section and should allow it to show up with 3 in a row (just like when your phone is horizontal).

                                                                    Let us know if that works for you.

                                                                    kronos
                                                                    Customer

                                                                      No those are just screenshots…..I would need to view an actual link to be able to see whats going on. Otherwise it would be a shot in the dark and would probably take way too many guesses before we figure out what it is….as opposed to a link where I can instantly tell you what you need to fix.

                                                                      So if you’re able to get a demo link up I can take a look if you want.

                                                                      in reply to: How To Make Site Mobile Display Same As In Theme Demo? #5659
                                                                      kronos
                                                                      Customer

                                                                        I’ll chime in here if you all don’t mind….

                                                                        but the theme demo and your site is showing up correctly for me as well.

                                                                        I think what @scooby is trying to explain to you is when the browser is at a certain size (small) the theme is designed to show images and content VERTICALLY. The content and images will show VERTICALLY (UP & DOWN) when viewed on any iPhone in PORTRAIT mode. That means holding the phone vertically.

                                                                        When you turn your phone to the side in LANDSCAPE mode (horizontal – side to side) the theme is designed to show the 3 widgets you are referring to HORIZONTALLY. Your site and the demo shows the EXACT same thing for me and I’m also using an iPhone.

                                                                        Not to pick any sides, but @scooby is right. The theme demo is not showing you something you can’t do. Keep in mind, you LITERALLY have the exact same theme as what is shown on the demo. I’m only mentioning this because you made it seem as if Wes is showing a demo of something different than what he’s selling. Which simply isn’t true since your theme is the exact same theme as what is displayed in the demo.

                                                                        I’ve also tested your site and the demo on 2 android phones and they ALL show everything correctly. Again, your theme shows up the same way as the demo. I went a step further and took a screenshot of your site on my iPhone and uploaded it for you to see – http://i.imgur.com/FON0Onk.png

                                                                        Turn your phone upright and view both the demo and your site…..then turn it to the side and view them both again……you’ll see that they both function the exact same. As he (or she) already mentioned, you can adjust this to look however you want it to. It’s the responsive CSS that controls all of this. You can adjust this in the responsive section of the css (at the bottom).

                                                                        Which iPhone are you using btw?

                                                                        kronos
                                                                        Customer

                                                                          Can you post a link so I can take a look?

                                                                          kronos
                                                                          Customer

                                                                            Not sure….I do know he’s had a ton of things on his to do list, but I assume he or someone else will figure it out.

                                                                            kronos

                                                                              You may want to read this – https://appfinite.com/topic/text-content-above-posts-on-portfolio-page/#post-3289 ….there was a minor conflict of some sort between the portfolio file and the Genesis 1.9 update.

If not, you can adjust the size by manually adding in the code inline. example – <img width="300" height="150" src="link_to_your_image.jpg">

                                                                                in reply to: What are these classes? #5527

                                                                                  in reply to: Trouble excluding some categories from portfolio #5515

Make sure the latest version of Genesis is installed properly….also double check to make sure WordPress is installed and updated. I’ve never heard of that happening with Genesis Child themes, so I’m not sure what it could be.

The responsive section of the css adjusts the menu to be vertical….but again, Wes is redesigning this to be horizontal instead. Here is an example – http://demo.appfinite.com/epik/ view in a mobile browser, or resize your browser to see the difference.

                                                                                            The only thing I can recommend is to copy the menu/nav code from the 2nd responsive section –

                                                                                            @media only screen and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 960px)

                                                                                            and add those same adjustments to the top/first responsive section under this –

                                                                                            @media only screen and (max-width: 600px)

                                                                                            It will take some effort, but it can be done….and it will probably be easy if you’re good with css. Other than that, there will be an entirely new version of this theme when Genesis 2.0 comes out (which will be soon).

                                                                                              Make sure you’re using the right plugin – http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-sidebars/

                                                                                              You can definitely show different content on different pages using the same widgets (without having to create new widgets)……here is what it looks like – http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-sidebars/screenshots/

                                                                                              You may want to check to see if they have some documentation, or do a Google search for one of the tutorials on setting it up. It should be pretty easy

                                                                                              Customer

                                                                                                You would have to redesign the css of the nav to be horizontal (if thats what you want). Although, you’ll need to have css skills to do this, as it could take some time and effort to implement. You’ll also need to be familiar with responsive css as well. That’s if you want to manually do it.

                                                                                                There is a plugin called dropdown menus (I think) that creates a single menu that you tap and it opens up. Here is an example – http://demo.appfinite.com/classik/ – view this theme demo from a phone. You could also use a menu plugin like Uber Menu.

                                                                                                Wes is currently working on the new version which will have horizontal menus and a ton of other updates for Genesis 2.0. – https://appfinite.com/topic/optimal-update/#post-5055 ……So if you can wait, then it will automatically be done when the new update is available. But if you want a signle nav item instead of horizontal menus, then try out one of those plugins above.

                                                                                                Customer

                                                                                                  It allows you to use the same widget areas and show different content for different pages.

                                                                                                  They should have a forum, or documentation that explains how to use it….I’m sure there are a few tutorials out there somewhere as well. But this would definitely get the job done.

                                                                                                      All of the css Classes/ID’s are labeled by section, so you can take a look at the top to find what you need.
