Hi,
I'm trying to add in a 2/3 left widget area and 1/3 right widget area under the Call to Action in the Executive theme. But I have clearly botched it up. http://www.avi8coaching.com.au/ I've done this successfully before, but I can't get them to go inline.
I also can't seem to get the image from the "Featured Widget Amplified" plugin to left align (despite setting it to align left).
Is there an easy way to add a 2/3 - 1/3 (blog/sidebar) to a theme's homepage?
Thanks,
Jenn
December 5, 2012 at 2:59 pm #3473AnitaKeymasterThat area is picking up the default styling. I am not that good at this, but looking at it in Firebug you are missing come styling in <div class="home"?
Something that would look like this but for the home class by itself.
.executive-home .home-cta {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: #222222;
color: #DDDDDD;
float: left;
padding: 60px 70px;
width: 100%;}

December 5, 2012 at 3:18 pm #3481JenniBMemberThanks for the reply! It was actually this code that caused me the problem: <code>clear: both;</code> I put it in the wrong class.
All set on the alignment issue..now I just have to figure out why the Featured Page Amplified plugin isn't left aligning my images.
Thanks!
December 5, 2012 at 3:19 pm #3482AnitaKeymasterWow, I don't know where all that other code came from in my reply. Glad you found it.

December 5, 2012 at 3:42 pm #3486JenniBMemberThe left aligning problem is something that comes from the design of the homepage, since all widgets are setup for images above the text. You have to customize the code. I removed the clear: both; code from the h2 tag.
Thanks!
