Thanks. That worked! Yay!
Thanks – that worked. You are so great!!
Thanks – no I tried that already. That’s what used to work that doesn’t now. I have tried every one of the formats and it is “stuck” on full width. Can we get that functionality back? I really need a sidebar on those pages and I’ve used them a LOT!!
Thanks
Beth
OK – the answer you gave here: https://appfinite.com/topic/portfolio-not-lining-out-on-the-left-side/
solved the first problem but I would still like to know how to use a sidebar on a portfolio page like I could do in the previous version.
Thx

OK – see – its the buzzwords that are second nature to you but are “greek” to me. For example, “replacing the old markup with the new markup” – Does this “markup” exist anywhere other than style.css?
I had already looked at the first link above but it doesn’t tell the novice what exactly I am supposed to DO with that information. Thank you for covering that in your last paragraph. I am comfortable enough with .css to do that.
But what do you mean by: ” Same thing for your other theme files” – what do you mean by “other theme files” – the ONLY thing I have ever “played” with is style.css. And although I have a vague notion of what a “hook” is, do I need to do anything if I am not a developer and haven’t used “hooks” or do I need to be concerned about my plugins?
And how do I “save a copy of my current theme?” Copy the folder?
Do you think you could tell me the high level” steps?
For example, I HAVE successfully updated to Genesis 2.0 but have not enabled HTML5.
What do I do now? Download the new Optimal theme?
What do I do 3rd? Enable HTML5 in Genesis or does that come later?
What do I do 4th?
etc.
I can find the how-to for each step – I just need someone to be a little clearer about what the steps are?
I apologize for being such a simpleton. I am learning but still have a ways to go. Any help is appreciated.
If the only thing I am concerned with is my .css staying intact, can I do this? 1) Copy my current .css to a separate location. 2)Upgrade Optimal like a new install. 3)Manually make the changes to my old .css per Brian’s chart and then copy that into the new style.css?
Again – thank for any help.
Beth
Thank you!!
Nevermind. Found it. Thanks for your help!
Thank you. That worked to change the color in the Custom menu in both the Footer1 widget area and in Home Featured 2. However, the #footer-widgets suggestion you provided to change the footer to a different color did not work.
Could it be where I am placing it in the CSS file? Sorry for the newbie questions. Still learning CSS.
Oh – sorry – and I have a similar problem in Footer area #1 – when I change the SIZE of the font in the header menu, it affects the size of the Custom menu options in the footer area. I need to control those separately as well.
Thanks again.
Custom menu titled: Our Free Reports
Yes – thank you. So sorry not to have done that. http://www.maxmyshopping.com/wp/
It’s a work in progress.
The Custom Menu widget in the Home Featured 2 section uses the same color font as in the header menu – white. I need to change the one for the custom menu to something else without affecting the header menu.
Thanks
OK – I finally found on my own how to change the colors on the main menu options and drop downs. And, I even found how to get the Custom menu options to show something other than white. My problem now is that also changes the Main Menu colors which I really want to stay white.
.optimal-green .menu a {
color: #fff;
When I update the above it changes both the Primary menu options as well as the Custom menu options. I need the custom menu options to be different.
Help?
