Sorry, but I have installed Classic Widgets Plug In and Have the same issue.

So, I am using the Wayback Machine and just recreating the Sidebars. A lot faster than trying to debug this any further.

I guess the data for the sidebars is somewhere in the MySQL file,

But, wonder is WordPress will continue to support this Classic Widgets Plug-In in the future.

Sigh – should have used a table.

I deactivated all plug-ins and now do not even see the sidebars for my home page. This is even worse than before.

Only see the first line of the now missing sidebars.

So, reactivated all the plug-ins and now all of the text (except first line) of the sidebars has now disappeared. Now, need to find the html for this somewhere in a backup.

Sigh.

Should have used a table and old-style html and css????

All customization was made through Appearance-Theme Options-Custom CSS.

1.For my edification, can you provide to me the file name where these changes are stored? For one reason, I would like to make a special archival backup of just that file. I am not sure where dashboard is stored and I did just update WordPress.

2. What is the utility of using a Child-Theme to store changes.

Thanks.

I did that already under evolution pro. I did not realize this was for a different theme.

Looking at this further, I note that in Evolution Pro, one can set a featured image for a page. Once set, what can one do with it??

So – is the answer that this feature is not available on Catch Evolution Pro, but is avaialable on Catch Everest?

– which has this as a feature: Header Featured Image: You can add a completely new Header Featured Image to your site to showcase your banner or header image

Sorry again – but i forgot to say notify me.

You stated in an answer above, the following:
” If you select Enable Featured Header Image as “Entire Site, Page/Post Featured Image”.”
I am in the Appearance-Theme Option Tab and select “Header Options”.
I do not see such a selection there.

I have a custom image header set and it shows on one page.
I want to use and alternate image on one page for the header.

Thank you again for your great support. The page I have with multiple instances of the slider is:

http://frankiesavoyballny.com/test/

If you provide me with a secure address, I will give you access to my admin password.

What is odd here is that a single slider works and there two instance of the same slider work, even on the same page.

But, I am getting the symptom identified by other users of the slide in: of a greyed out horizontal line where I wanted the second slider to appear.

Well, the new plug-in worked, but only for one slider. I wrote that developer who states that it is probably and issue with the theme (I deactivated the extra plug-ins).

His response is below.

His link is way out of my pay grade.

*****************
To Alan:
Either some plugin which is related to shortcodes or the theme you are using is corrupting the output of javascript code generated by the slider plugin. You need to look for any plugin installed that can modify the shortcode and then disable it and check if it fixes the issue or not if it does not then it’s your theme.
For more information visit the link below.

> I am having trouble creating a second slider, even using the first images in the slider that works. I am able in a sidebar to even have, as a test, two instances of the first slider. The second slider – all I get is a horizontal line – and I haven tested using just one image used in the first slider. Alan>

That helps somewhat. What other hints are there to make the iphone experience better?
Is tinynav just for the iphone/android or also for the Ipad.
Can you point me to any good discussion of this issue.

That is true – I did change my menu.

I was not able to modify the background and font colors in the Fixed Header Top Menu.

In trying to debug, I deselected the Top Menu and used the Primary Menu. Then I was able to modify the menu colors. To do that, I used the panel displayed via the dashboard.

At the same time, I did have “Disable Primary and Secondary Menu” selected under Theme Option – Menu Options.

So, perhaps there is some type of conflict re the settings in these two menu control panels – i.e., the one obtained under the Dashboard and the one obtained under Theme Options-Menu Options.

Frankly, I am not even sure what WP Super Cache Plugin does … anyway, for now, Menu color modifications work if I deselect the Top Menu and Select Primary Menu.

Sorry for some of my questions – the last web site I did was 7 years ago, in Dreamweaver and I am just figuring out Word Press etc. – the latter being superior for what I need now.

Thanks again for you help.

Thank you. I contacted them and they suggested installing:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcodes-in-sidebar-widgets/
And it is working so far – very nicely.

I also set Menu Background Color to Blue and nothing happens – this is with no extra css code.

[zorter]

Sakin

I am back to working on my menu.
I used this in Custom CSS – code from you.

#fixed-header-top { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
#fixed-header-top ul.menu > li a { color: #000000; }

#fixed-header-top ul.menu ul { background-color: #fff; }
#fixed-header-top ul.menu ul li a { color: #000; }

My issue is that when using this code, the menu item text disappears when I hove over the item or click on the top item.

And my main issue is that the Color Options for the menu do not seem to take.

So, I removed this code and as an example sett Menu Hover Text Color to red.

Nothing changes in the menu.

My web site is:

I will send you my passwords off-line – cannot do so publicly.
How do I do that.
Thank you for your help.

ps. I commented out two lines of code with an apostrophe – these were the two lines you gave me earlier.

[zorter]

Thanks – that is really excellent support, and I have not paid you a penny yet. I will get the pro.

How do I modify the drop downs in the menu – I changed the main menues to black font over white background, but the dropdowns are now black text and dark gray.

Have another question – I cannot figure out how you load the images for the default slider.

And related, can I put the slider in the sidebars.

And Again can I modify the width of the sidebars.

I am using Catch Evolution Free

Let me know if you want password – I would rather not since the site is not released just yet, but can send you a temp one if you need it.

[zorter]

I am a little confused as to what i meant by 1,2 and 3 column pages. I do not know how to add content to the sidebars. I wish to add content such as a slider of images, announcements, etc., and not blog type of postings.

In other words, I am thinking partly of a magazine type layout where I have freedom as to what to put in the left and right columns.

Does the pro version have this capability, if the free version does not.
