Try:
.home .genesis-responsive-slider .slide-excerpt {
background-color: transparent;
}.home .genesis-responsive-slider h2,
.home .genesis-responsive-slider h2 a {
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 28px;
}
Robert NeuMemberThis will let you control which class is applied when someone is on a page other than the ones you're trying to modify. I also noticed the way you were passing the pages in is_page() was incorrect so that was causing an issue as well.
Just make sure that in your Genesis theme options you've set the color setting to default or remove the support for the genesis-style-selector entirely.
Robert NeuMemberSomething like this should work:
You may need to modify it a bit for the different colors.
Robert NeuMemberRobert NeuMemberThey are very similar in functionality but the Bootstrap one was made by a 3rd party developer. The main thing that I like about it is that it's more lightweight and you can choose to disable the stylesheet and javascript from being added. I'm using it on my site and I have found a few things that need fixed on it. If you're looking for the most reliable plugin go with the Genesis Responsive Slider.
If you need some help with this and have Skype I'd be happy to give you a hand.
Robert NeuMemberAnitac, your suggestion to follow Brian's guide should work. The code he posted will place that widget area site-wide.
Honestly I would recommend that you reconsider adding a slider to every page of your website, but if that is what you want to do following Brian's guide and adding the slider widget into the new widget area you've created will work fine.
Robert NeuMemberI misread the initial post. Following Brian's guide should accomplish what you're trying to do.
Since the site is responsive you'll want to use the slider that I linked to or this one: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-bootstrap-carousel/
Robert NeuMemberFirst, turn off the breadcrumbs for the home page. It looks like you're using the Balance theme so you'll need to modify the code a bit for a slideshow to display correctly.
To get started, you'll need to install this plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-responsive-slider/
Once you've done that, you're going to need to edit your home.php file and your style.css file a bit.
Robert NeuMemberThe only free one I've used that wasn't horrible is

December 18, 2012 at 7:09 am in reply to: 2 or 3 column category page listing in Minimum Theme #5904Robert NeuMemberYou need to replace the default loop with the Genesis Grid Loop on that category. You can either do this by adding some code to your functions.php file or you can use this handy plugin by Bill Erickson:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-grid-loop/
If you would prefer to do it without a plugin or this doesn't work for you, please let me know and I'll help you get it working.
Robert NeuMemberThe issue you're seeing in Chrome isn't really an issue, it's part of how the theme is designed.
One option you could consider would be to use http://studiopress.com/themes/agency/ as it is designed using a 960 grid system which will display correctly on lower resolution screens. It should display correctly even on older versions of IE without a polyfill script like the one I posted above.
A 1024x768 screen resolution is quickly becoming uncommon and older versions of IE are falling out of use as well. Are you sure that your site will have a large amount of visitors with small screens AND outdated browsers?
Robert NeuMemberIf you want to shim older versions of IE, here is how to do it:
Download respond.min.js from this github repository:
https://github.com/scottjehl/Respond
Inside your theme's root directory create a new folder called js and place respond.min.js inside that folder.
Then in your functions.php file add the following:
/** Add support for media queries in IE */
add_action('get_header', 'eleven40_load_scripts');
function eleven40_load_scripts() {
global $is_IE;
if($is_IE) {
wp_enqueue_script('respond', $src = CHILD_URL.'/js/respond.min.js', array('jquery'), TRUE);
}
}Upload everything to your web server and test the results.
Robert NeuMemberIE8 does not support media queries. The theme you are using is designed using the 1140 grid which means the maximum width is going to be too wide for your screen to display correctly on IE8.
It's actually very easy to add a shim (which uses a bit of jQuery) to force IE8 to render media queries correctly if this is something you are concerned about.
Robert NeuMemberIf you're doing this purely for SEO reasons, you probably shouldn't bother. There are plenty of more important things you should focus on than where your post content is being displayed.
In any event, if you really want to do this something like this should work:
/** Reposition post content */
remove_action( 'genesis_post_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_post_content' );You can change the "genesis_after_header" portion to a different hook if that's not the area you want the content to display. Check out the visual hook guide for a better idea of where you can reposition the content.
http://genesistutorials.com/visual-hook-guide/
Robert NeuMemberYou're seeing the responsive design in action. At that screen resolution the columns switch to a 100% width layout and are stacked on top of each other. That is expected behavior for the theme.
I'm not sure why you're still seeing columns in IE unless you are using an old version of IE which does not support media queries by default.
December 15, 2012 at 6:15 pm in reply to: Need to Password Protect a category of a site, Any suggestions? #5481Robert NeuMemberThere are quite a few plugins that can help you accomplish this. Take a look at:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/groups/

Robert NeuMemberIf you want to make a complete backup of your site you'll need to do more than export the database. There are a number of different ways you can accomplish this. I personally perform backups at the server level but you might find it easier to use a plugin.
Some plugins you can check out:
http://ithemes.com/purchase/backupbuddy/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-backup-to-dropbox/
If you're interested in backing up via command line here's some information that can get you headed in the right direction:

Hope that helps!
Robert NeuMemberI'm pretty sure the Google Analytics plugin is the culprit here. There should be an option in it somewhere to turn off the additional tracking snippets for the RSS feed.
In all reality, as long as you're using the rel=canonical tag correctly, which you appear to be, I don't think it's going to be much of an issue to have those RSS links tagged like that anyway.
Robert NeuMemberI updated code again.
Here's some more info on the functions being used. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/previous_post_link
If you need some help styling the actual div elements let me know.
