I LOVE this theme and I’m having a blast configuring my old site to this theme! It seems pretty clear cut but there are a couple of things I can’t find.

1) How do I make it so that my front page is my archive page?

2) How can I lower my header menu to line up with the top of Hide in Hide My Age? (the same way that my social icons is on my catch box pro theme? On the catch box pro it required some custom css.

Thanks!

@Kim:
1. I don’t get it what you mean. As when I check in your Front page. It’s the archive page listing your latest posts. Can you explain your issue in detail. For which site are you asking for. You are using Catch Box Pro and is posting it in Catch Flames Pro support forum. Do you mean to to make it like your site with Full Content layout and then use more tag to break the content. Then you can go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options” and in “Archive Content Layout”, you need to check the option “Full Content Display”

2. For this, please post in your site URL so that I can check in the alignment and suggest you the css.

1. Please see my staging site. http://hidemyage.staging.wpengine.com/
I did what you said but I’m still getting the big slider on my home page. I’d like my posts page to be first like on my live site:
Hidemyage.com

2. I have decided not to have the social icons in my header for now. I took the widget out but for some reason it is still showing up there. How do I get that off?

@Kim:
1. If you don’t like the slider, then you can disable slider from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options” and then check the option “Disable” in Enable Sidebar.

2. Removing widget from the Header Right Sidebar will show the default widgets “Search and Social”. So, if you just want Search and remove social then you can go to “Appearance => Widgets” and then just add Search Widgets in Header Right Sidebar. But if you want to completely disable Header Right Sidebar then you can go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Header Right Options” and then check option “Disable Header Right Sidebar” and save changes.

Note: I don’t get it why are you adding you logo in “Header Featured Image”. Then best place to add logo is from “Appearance => Theme Options => Header Options”. There you need to add in your logo URL in and uncheck disable Disable Header Logo. Header Featured Image should be used only if you want Logo and additional header banner.

3. How do I get the social icons to center on my sidebar?

[Sakin]

@Kim: In which sidebar are you talking about. I am confused.

[Kim]

I apologize – on the Primary Sidebar.

[Sakin]

@Kim: Try adding in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:

#secondary .widget .social-profile {
    text-align: center;
}
#secondary .social-profile ul li {
    display: inline-block;
    float: none;
}

[Kim]

I put this css in but it did not center my social bar in the primary sidebar

@Kim: There is issue in your Custom CSS. You haven’t closed the brackets. You have missed closing brackets } in two places.
Go to your custom css and find the following css:

.widget_image img {
    border: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
footer.entry-meta { display: none; }

Then replace it with the following css:

.widget_image img { border: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
footer.entry-meta { display: none; }

Next, find the following css:

#secondary .social-profile ul li {
    display: inline-block;
    float: none;

Then replace it with the following:

#secondary .social-profile ul li {
    display: inline-block;
    float: none;
}
