Thank you wooninjas and Christoph for your help.
Christoph -- the link below is to the screenshot of the mobile version of my site that I see on my iPhone and iPad. I've had this same mobile version appear on numerous Apple devices.
Wooninjas - I don't understand how does the logo affect the mobile version?
christine123MemberThanks, Victor, for the reply. I'm new to this. When you say create a front-page.php template, what exactly does that mean?
Also, another way to look at this problem I'm trying to solve is -- how do I remove the sidebar on the homepage (and keep all else)? I know that when you're in a page or post, you can select the layout settings, and I have selected no sidebar layout for the sticky post I'm using as my home page, but I suspect the default homepage layout includes the sidebar so WP is defaulting to that?
i appreciate your help and patience with me!
christine123MemberI realize your post is quite old, but I have a solution so I thought I'd reply.
I, too, wanted to remove / delete / omit certain pages (like the Thank You page I created for a new email subscriber, appointment cancellation and reschedule pages I created for someone booking an appt with me, etc.) from the human-friendly site map (versus an XML sitemap for search engines) I created on my site by using the Archive Template provided with Genesis and my Balance Child Theme.
Here's what worked for me:
Copy page_archive.php from Genesis to your child theme directory. (You need to do this via your hosting provider.)
Edit the copied file. The list of pages is output via this line:
<?php wp_list_pages( 'title_li=' ); ?>
To exclude a particular Page having a ID of say, 123, change it to<?php wp_list_pages( 'title_li=&exclude=123' ); ?>
To exclude multiplage Pages, use comma separated Page IDs like this:<?php wp_list_pages( 'title_li=&exclude=1666,38' ); ?>
I found these steps on Sridhar's website here:

christine123MemberThank you again! I looked for those in the text editor. I didn't see them. Thank you so much for helping my newbie-self!!!
christine123Member1) OMG I'm such an idiot! I clicked the icon you mentioned and POOF! There's the missing toolbar. DUH! Thank you SO MUCH. I'm so embarrassed. I had a feeling it was something simple like that. I tried so many different things. I just knew I was missing something! DUH!
2) Check out this page: http://www.friscolifecoach.com/escape-the-rat-race/ There are several places where the text isn't left justified. Randomly through out the post. Just scan the left side of the paragraphs, and you should see them.
September 18, 2013 at 9:58 am in reply to: Genesis Responsive Slider Text Not Aligned Properly #63215christine123MemberI changed the font size in CSS from 42 to 32 which stopped the text from running off the slider. Thank you for the help!
Also, to omit the ghost text “continue reading” that appeared on the one slider (and only the top half of those words appeared in red under the post content in the slider)… I went to Genesis –> Slider Settings –> Content Settings –> More Text. In that text box, I deleted the “more,” which I had inserted there (not sure why “continued reading” would show up when it should have said “more.”) Anyway… by leaving that field blank, the ghost words disappeared. One way to eliminate the problem — just don’t use the functionality

September 18, 2013 at 9:48 am in reply to: Genesis Responsive Slider Ghost Text Box Appears on Image #63212christine123MemberI changed the header font size, and that fixed the text from running off the page. Thank you!
However, it appears the text box is correlated to the number of characters in the header text. In other words, each box on each slider is a different size. I would like the text box to be a static size and uniform on each slider. Do I need to create a separate issue in the forum to have this questions addressed?
Thanks again!
September 18, 2013 at 7:20 am in reply to: Genesis Responsive Slider Ghost Text Box Appears on Image #63177christine123MemberThanks, Mike. I will try to change the font size.
September 18, 2013 at 7:18 am in reply to: Genesis Responsive Slider Text Not Aligned Properly #63176christine123MemberYes, I posted 3 similar but different issues. According to forum rules, I thought that's how you post issues? I'm new here. Sorry for the confusion! I appreciate your help!
September 18, 2013 at 7:16 am in reply to: Genesis Responsive Slider Continued Reading Text Cut Off #63175christine123MemberThank you Sridhar. I'll try that. Interesting that "continued reading" didn't appear in your browser. May I ask which browser you are using? I checked Chrome and IE.
September 17, 2013 at 4:21 pm in reply to: Google Analytics Source Code Not Installed with Plugin #63064christine123MemberYes, thank you. My apologies... I was updating my reply, and I think we crossed wires. Thanks again!
September 17, 2013 at 4:11 pm in reply to: Google Analytics Source Code Not Installed with Plugin #63057christine123MemberThanks, Brad, for the help. I think that did the trick! 🙂
Ok, so I copied this Tracking Code from GA --> Admin -->Tracking Info
<script type="text/javascript"> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })(); </script>
I pasted the Tracking Code (above) into the Header section in Genesis --> Theme Settings --> Header and Footer Scripts.
Then I viewed my source code (right clicked on my web site, then selected View Source) to double check the tracking code is there. The code showed up! However, this is on line 17:
<!-- Google Analytics tracking code not shown because users over level 8 are ignored. -->What does that mean? I assume all is well?
Thank you again for your help. 🙂
christine123MemberGotcha. That worked. So here's a re-cap in case anyone needs the solution spelled out step-by-step:
1) Make up a name for the change you want to make. I called mine: custom-body-line-spacing.
2) Click the post or page you want to make the change to.
3) Scroll down toward bottom of page until you see Layout Settings. Then look for a field called Custom Body Class.
4) Type in the name you made up for the change (see step 1) with hyphens in the Custom Body Class box.
5) Click update.
6) Go to Appearance -- Edit CSS
7) Insert the code for the change you want to make. I inserted this:.custom-body-line-spacing .entry-content p { margin: 0 0 5px; }
8) Click Save Stylesheet.
That should do the trick. So... Anytime you want that specific change on a page or post, all you have to do is type your made up name (from step 1) in the Custom Class Box of the page/post, and the site will be changed.
christine123MemberThank you for your help. Where can I find the Layout Settings on the edit screen? By edit screen, do you mean go to Appearance --> Edit CSS ?
