Hey Sakin,
I have another question: I want to replace the homepage (with the feature image slider and the widgets) alltogether with another page that just contains simple text and maybe an image.
Now the page that I created (and named ‘Home’) and set as the default homepage for the blog in the WordPress read-settings is somehow always overwritten by the theme’s default page (with slider ect.).
So I can’t get it to show the content I put on the ‘Home’ page when I open goldentricycle.com.
Can you tell me how to ditch the theme’s homepage completely?Cheers

Thanks for your reply! I tried what you suggested and it’s working. Only problem is that the home page isn’t taking the full width like the other pages, despite not having any widgets assigned at all. (Neither under Design => Widgets, nor under the Theme’s Homepage Options)
Another issue that is troubling me is that the responsive menu is dissappearing when I am watching the the site on my smart phone (or when I’m scaling the width down in firefox).
Any Idea what this could cause?
I’ve reverted back the CSS to make sure my dabbling with it doesn’t cause the issues.Thanks again for your help!
Cheers

About the responsive menu, I think it’s conflicting with your plugin. Please try disabling plugin and check in.

Cheers

The page that is selected as homepage always displays a line with

just below the title of that page, no matter which of my site I assign as homepage. Does this have anything to do with the theme or is it just me not understanding wordpress?
Cheers and thanks again!

.home .entry-header .entry-meta { display: none; }
