Hello there,
Okay I follow the instructions of the last post I did about putting a video next to the slider. I was given this tutorial: (http://wpsites.net/web-design/move-call-to-action-next-to-slider-in-executive-pro-theme/)
I think it worked but now the theme is a little off, The "Home - Call to Action" widget is in the slider and it should be between the widgets "Home -Top" and "Home -Middle".
Also, I don't get how to put a video in the box next to the slider.
Can you help? Is there something I forgot?
Thank you very much,

April 11, 2014 at 9:32 am #99690cczitoMemberCall me dumb or whatever ... but what does CTA stand for? ... I saw that in the instructions but didn't know what it stood for and I guess I somehow didn't get it ...
So placing the YouTube video embed code I guess I just don't know where the actual widget is to place it. When I open up the widget area in my WordPress admin, I see the "Home - Slider" but not the CTA.
So please if you could just let me know where to place that code or where the CTA is I would be grateful.
Thank you so much for your service,
ChristineApril 11, 2014 at 9:35 am #99691AnitaKeymasterCTA = Call to Action - just a way to single out something you want people to see immediately and take action on. Look for the Text Widget. Drag it over to that area - paste in the Youtube embed code. Save it. Then look at the site.

April 11, 2014 at 9:40 am #99692cczitoMemberOh ... Thank you so much ... that was not in the instructions you explained it perfectly.
I'm going to try it right now.
April 11, 2014 at 9:44 am #99693AnitaKeymasterPost back if you get it to work or have more difficulty.

April 11, 2014 at 9:49 am #99694cczitoMemberOkay ... now it is not aligning to the right ... it works but it is not aligning ... is there something I need add to the text?
Thank you,
ChristineApril 11, 2014 at 10:01 am #99695AnitaKeymasterI think you have it in the wrong area. Drag it to the Home CTA widget area, not the slider widget.

April 11, 2014 at 10:03 am #99696cczitoMemberOkay.
April 11, 2014 at 10:07 am #99697cczitoMemberOkay Anitac,
I did it but and it is still being difficult ... now what can I do?
April 11, 2014 at 10:10 am #99698AnitaKeymasterRe-review his code. Something isn't set right. The slider should be floating left and the new CTA widget should float right. Look at his code and look at what you've added to your theme.
