This is probably a stupidly simple oversight on my part - but I've installed dozens of Genesis themes and have never had THIS happen:
The entire homepage is aligned left with no left margin - it bleeds to the very edge of the page. Any thoughts on why it's doing this? (The site is behind a maintenance mode screen, so no link.) Could it be code from an earlier theme...? The client used to run iThemes builder.
January 10, 2014 at 9:13 am #84394AnitaKeymasterPlease provide a link to your site.

January 10, 2014 at 10:29 am #84422littleleafashMemberThanks for responding!
The site is behind a maintenance screen, so a link won't help. :-/ (It's vollitalk.com)
I've been adding some stuff and it looks like this now, to give you an idea:
I tried disabling all plugins to see if that was part of problem, but no luck.
January 10, 2014 at 10:37 am #84424eefMemberHey Ash! Does it do this if you install the theme on another site, or is it that site specifically?
January 10, 2014 at 11:00 am #84428littleleafashMemberErin! Hi! Thanks! 🙂
Good question - when I just tried Executive on it - it looked fine! Which means it's something IN that theme. Hmm.
January 10, 2014 at 11:07 am #84431AnitaKeymasterAre you using any widgets, text widgets, column classes?

January 10, 2014 at 11:37 am #84445littleleafashMemberGood ideas - I tried removing all the widgets & text widgets or setting a page as the homepage- it's still having that problem:
Thank you so much for responding!
January 10, 2014 at 11:45 am #84447AnitaKeymasterHow did you add the image? You could have an unclosed DIV.

January 10, 2014 at 12:53 pm #84468littleleafashMemberThe background image in Minimum is just done through the Appearance --> Background in the dashboard, so it shouldn't have any coding errors! :-/
ETA: I tried taking out the image and it still was flush with the left side of the page.
January 10, 2014 at 12:57 pm #84470AnitaKeymasterOkay. It's really difficult to help when we cannot see the site. Can you take if off maintenance mode for a few minutes?

January 10, 2014 at 1:28 pm #84475littleleafashMemberYep - I will do it for 15 minutes. http://vollitalk.com/
(Keep in mind - haven't done anything but install!)
Thank you!!
January 10, 2014 at 1:38 pm #84479AnitaKeymasterWhen I went there, the image did not come in. Can you remove it and reset the back to the default. Also, I check your CSS to see if it might be there and they are the same except the verbiage in red/green - see here -http://diffchecker.com/cu2zdv4h. Did you modify the front-page.php file at all?

January 10, 2014 at 1:44 pm #84481littleleafashMemberThanks - I removed it.
I haven't touched the code in the theme at all! I did change the header/logo size in functions.php to
//* Add support for custom header
add_theme_support( 'custom-header', array(
'width' => 125,
'height' => 92,
'header-selector' => '.site-title a',
'header-text' => false
) );but the lack of margins was a problem before then - from the moment I activated the theme. Should I contact SP support for this? I feel like it's something simple, but have wasted a whole day on it!
January 10, 2014 at 1:46 pm #84482AnitaKeymasterTry using FTP to upload the front-page.php file again manually.

January 10, 2014 at 1:54 pm #84483AnitaKeymasterYes, when did you download your theme? Which Genesis are you running? Did you update to the newest Genesis yet?
Love coffee, chocolate and my Bella!
January 10, 2014 at 1:58 pm #84484littleleafashMemberJust overwrote the front-page.php file with a new upload - still the same problem.
Running Genesis 2.0.2 and the newest download of Minimum (the client just bought yesterday and sent me the file).
January 10, 2014 at 2:01 pm #84486AnitaKeymasterOk, time to put in a support ticket then. Reference this dialogue to them so they can read everything. If they resolve, can you post back?
Love coffee, chocolate and my Bella!
January 11, 2014 at 8:47 am #84609littleleafashMemberWell - it was an easy fix! When I deactivated all the plugins, I left up the maintenance mode since it's a corporate site and they don't want people to see it - and there is a known conflict with that specific plugin and Minimum. So strange since it worked with Executive, but I'm glad it is fixed!
Now to find a new maintenance plugin...thanks for all your help!
January 11, 2014 at 8:51 am #84610AnitaKeymasterWhich maintenance plugin are you using?
Love coffee, chocolate and my Bella!
January 11, 2014 at 8:54 am #84611littleleafashMemberI was using Coming Soon / Maintenance mode Ready!, now I'm going to use WP Maintenance Mode.
