PaulMember
Thank you Andrea! I was seriously worried that they were trying to pull something, because it just didn't make sense why I had never had to do that before. I would like to get in touch with your colleague, as I'd like to try to gain a better understanding of what I am dealing with. Not sure the best way to do that, but I can be reached at Paul at OylerPhotography dot com.
Thank you again!
(And I am thinking it is time to begin searching for a different place to have my VPS)
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberBingo! That did the trick!
Strange though, that it had been working fine thanks to the earlier tip, and then yesterday it quit obeying that style rule.
Anyways, thank you much Andrea!
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberDid a quick search and find on the style sheet and that did not come up. Maybe because the header image is set from the custom header interface?
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberThank you for your help Robin! Your work was wonderful, and much appreciated indeed!
The Pastor is still having a bit of trouble with his iPhone, but we finally figured out it may be a problem with his phone, as it is at least 2 versions out-dated. He loves the way it displays in his iPad now.

PaulSeptember 3, 2013 at 11:14 am in reply to: How can I get pdf forms to do anything in Firefox? #60462PaulMemberThis is frustrating me; I've got all of the settings set as they should be, and still nothing happens. I've had a few other clients complain about the same issue, so I was hoping maybe there was some sort of plugin to install in WP that would make it easier. I'd really rather not have to include a long list of special instructions just for Firefox users. This the one thing that I really dislike with using Firefox, as every other browser opens pdf files with no troubles.
I like the way files can be downloaded at http://pghnazarene.org/index.php/resources-mainmenu-88/documents?view=category&id=4 and was hoping the was some similar availability in WP?
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberYes I did, thanks to the support desk. I meant to come back and share the fix in case anyone else needed it, and then forgot to do so.
There was this in the stylesheet:
.header-image #title a {
background: none;
padding: 0;
}I changed this to:
.header-image #title a {
background: none !important;
padding: 0;
}And that did the trick.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberSo I just switched to the default twentytwelve theme, made the changes, they actually saved, and then switched back to Metro and the changes are intact.
So I guess that would confirm that somewhere there is an issue with the Metro theme, but at least I know how to work around it now.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberChecked that, it is as it is supposed to be.
I uninstalled Genesis and then did a fresh install, just to see if it made a difference; it didn't.
Deleted Metro and fresh install there, still nothing.
Can't figure out what to check or try next.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberThanks for the suggestion Anita, but unfortunately that didn't do the trick.
I disabled everything, and it still won't save any changes.

PaulMay 31, 2013 at 2:12 pm in reply to: Trying to figure out how to clean up mobile view – Outreach #43409PaulMemberThanks to suggestions from Jennifer, I have done the following:
Changed
` .home-featured {
width: 700px;
}`to
` .home-featured {
width: 100%;
}`And I changed
`.home .sidebar {
width: 300px;
}`to
`.home .sidebar {
width: 225px;
}`That helped some apparently, but now the Pastor sent this, "On my iPad - there is no longer overlap, but the layout looks awkward - the graphics are in the extreme left and right of the screen with an unusually large space in between.
On the iPhone - the loop is now working but that graphics are still incredibly large."
I am really anxious to get this fixed, if anyone can offer any further suggestions.
Grace and Peace,
PaulMay 31, 2013 at 11:47 am in reply to: Trying to figure out how to clean up mobile view – Outreach #43394PaulMemberI am still struggling with this site. Apparently in iPad and iPhone the site does not look good at all. Since I don't have access to either one of those, I'm not sure exactly how to approach the problem.
Here is what the Pastor says, "The devices I've had problems with are my iPhone and my iPad. On both there is significant change. On the iPad, the large graphic overlaps the three smaller graphics. On the iPhone, the tool bar becomes two lines, the graphics loop does not cycle, and I can only see about 1/4 to 1/3 of the page."
Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this?

PaulApril 5, 2013 at 11:00 pm in reply to: Trying to figure out how to clean up mobile view – Outreach #33420PaulMemberIt looks like, when I put the site into the responsive tester - http://www.studiopress.com/responsive/ - that the header seems to resize ok; it seems that it may be the responsive slider that isn't so responsive, and then in the 1024 view, the slider and the sidebar is all 'smooshed' together.
Grace and Peace,
PaulApril 5, 2013 at 7:30 pm in reply to: Trying to figure out how to clean up mobile view – Outreach #33400PaulMemberI am still in need of help in cleaning this site up for mobile display, if anyone could offer any tips. I am kind of lost on it.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberThanks to this thread - http://www.studiopress.community/topic/header-not-mobile-responsive/ - I installed the Genesis Responsive Header plugin, and after a minor tweak to add the 1024 size to the plugin, it solved my problem. So kudos to Nick the Geek for a great plugin!
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberOK, I have figured out it is because of the header image they want used; smaller screens and devices can't see the whole image, which the theme has set ay 1060 px wide.
Is there a responsive way to handle a header so that smaller screens will somehow pull a scaled down image? Or some other solution that will work to accomplish the same thing?
(I don't know if that is the right question to ask or if it is even possible)
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberThank you! That took care of it.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberThank you braddalton! Used the functions and putting the fonts together on same line did the trick. I figured I was doing it wrong by adding another line in.
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberOK, so now I have this in the CSS:
#title {
font-family: 'Gabriela', sans-serif;
font-size: 46px;
font-weight: normal;
line-height: 1;
margin-top: 35px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 15px;
margin-left: auto;
text-transform: none;
color: #a1f233;
}And this in the function.php"
/** Load Google fonts */
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'outreach_load_google_fonts' );
function outreach_load_google_fonts() {
wp_enqueue_style(
'google-fonts',
'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato',
'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Gabriela',
array(),
PARENT_THEME_VERSION
);
}But it didn't seem to change anything. Is there a different way I am supposed to add a 2nd Google font?
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMember@Bill-Murray, you pointed to the demo for Outreach 2; is that the current Outreach download, or is this an unreleased update?
Grace and Peace,
PaulPaulMemberWhat I did for now was just a simple copy and paste; copied the links from the sidebar, and then pasted them into a new page.
Works good enough, but I'd like a page that would update anytime a link was added or subtracted from the links list. But I've heard that something about links is supposed to change, so maybe this is best after all.
Grace and Peace,
