newbie questions

[kpgdimensionParticipant]

Hello – just purchased your Pro-Plus All-Theme Package and having a difficult time figuring out how things work.I have been trying to play with some of the child themes I did not realize I needed to know php to such a degree, especially for the hooks.. I cant seem to be able to change  anything – frustrated. Is there maybe an easier child theme that you suggest I start on that might work for me. I had purchased the infocus theme from themeforest about 2 months ago and I was able to do alot of the editing with custom css feature it had.. any help would greatly appreciated..

I don’t own it, but it is my understanding that the “Prose” theme is editable in a different manner than all the other child themes – you might want to take a look at that.

Which theme are you working with right now? Did you download the Genesis Simple Hooks plugin to use with your website? This makes life a lot easier.

Thanks Susan,

I have switched over to the prose theme -I like how the design option is there, not as intimidating..

Anitac , i have the simple hooks plug in, but am not sure how it works  – example, where would i find the code to  use for wp_head Hook… I guess I am not just getting this, and the vids on hooks just goes to php… thanks anyway..

Here is the Visual Hook Guide to help you with placement – http://genesistutorials.com/visual-hook-guide/. Take a look at that and it should all start to click.

Oh and in addition to what I wrote above – you should download the Genesis Guide for Absolute Beginners. It’s free – http://www.studiopress.com/news/genesis-for-beginners.htm.
