Ok, thanks for your feedback, I now understand what’s going on

The “issue” is that WordPress differentiates between the state “is_home()” (served via a file home.php) and “is_font_page()” when setting a regular page as the home page.

I see two alternatives to get what you want:
Using the packaged “home.php” and make it’s regular content (in that case the “loop”) widgetized so you could place in anything you want.

Or you could re-add the stuff for the top area from the home.php to your functions.php and make a conditional statement to only do that for a page ID — just for that page ID that you before set up as static homepage.

Both should keep the “header / top” stuff intact.

Personally I would go the “widget” way. But it’s up to you. I could help with the code snippets if you want.

You should open a support ticket for the old download — and maybe also for these other issues!

As for your style issues:
Could you please give an URL for your site?
Before Genesis 1.9 the loading of stylesheets was not done via the official, standard WordPress way! This was corrected with v1.9.x – finally!

Does your child theme folder have spaces in it?
Do you load custom stylesheets – maybe you should adjust the loading priority.

What child theme are you using?

I’ve pinged Bill & Travis if they could have a look here.

IMHO, your issue might be a bit more complicated and I am currently not able to do some help in resolving it.

Due to changes in WordPress core the custom grid loops in Genesis became an issue. Plugins like that from Bill Erickson do the queries the WordPress way and displaying the output via CSS column classes – which is the future-proof way to go.

Hope this helps for the moment.

Yes this should be possible!

First, backup your functions.php file from the child theme!
Then, remove line 9-13 of that functions.php file where it says:

// Add footer gallery
add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'landscape_include_footer_gallery', 8 );
function landscape_include_footer_gallery() {
dynamic_sidebar( 'Footer Gallery' );
}

and replace with this piece of code:

—> This lets the footer gallery only appear on homepage and static pages.

I hope this works for you.

As of my knowledge your code will no longer work, correct.
The use of this plugin ( http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-grid-loop/ ) works only for pre-defined listings of posts, being that blog posts or content archives.
However, I would still suggest to ask for support from the developer of that linked plugin.

Genesis developer Travis Smith has also posted about this issue, maybe it could help you too: http://wpsmith.net/2013/genesis/genesis-grid-loop-in-genesis-1-9/

This setting was made conditional already in Genesis 1.7.x — it depends on if your child theme is using the custom header functionaly (a WP standard). What child theme are you using? Also, could please give an URL of your site?

Please give us an URL of your site. Thanks!

Normally, this kind of stuff is resolved with CSS fixes — great tool for that is Firebug Add-On via Firefox or Chrome browser. Also, see this StudioPress blog post: http://www.studiopress.com/tips/using-firebug.htm

In Education 2.0 you have widgetized areas before the actual content, so in the upper part of the home page.

The blog posts below are from the “real” home page. To make use of a regular page here just setup a new page, after that go to your WordPress settings under “Settings > Reading” and setup your static home page. This should really do it if I understand you correctly.

Normally, this is setup in your Genesis Theme Settings under “Content Archives” – did you change something there already?

There is a new community plugin called “Genesis Co-Authors Plus”: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-co-authors-plus/
–> please use that along with the original “Co-Authors Plus” plugin

Before, remove your custom code regarding co-authors plus from your functions.php

I suggest to put further questions to the support forum of the developer of that Genesis Add-On plugin, here: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/genesis-co-authors-plus

You should also post this on the plugin support forum here, since this is a community plugin: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/genesis-featured-images

I’ll ping Travis to also have a look here

As of my knowledge these are Minimum 2.0 and Executive 2.0 to date.

Confirm can only the theme developer which is “Themedy”, URL: http://themedy.com/

I see no reason why it should not work with WC? Use theme, install WC, plus the Genesis Connect plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-connect-woocommerce/ (and follow their instructions from plugin page!)

You only need to remember that you don’t touch the post type “products” that comes with “Clip Cart” — just use the post type “products” that is provided by WooCommerce but you will see that Woo icon in admin, so this should help

Why not trying yourself on a test install if you have already a copy of “Clip Cart” – other both plugins are free

This is Minimum 1.0 that had a slighly other approach of doing the home layout option.

If you really want to go full-width here, then add this line of code to the file “home.php” into your child theme folder:
add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' );

Important: directly after the opening line where it says: “<?php"

This should do it also for 1.9.x.
