[VIDEO] StudioPress Genesis & Child theme update

I started putting together a little slide show of the new child themes available from StudioPress (these have to be used with the Genesis theme framework…which is fabulous!) and realized that if I delay it any longer I’m going to have to go back and add a bunch more screenshots because the child themes are [...]

[VIDEO] StudioPress Tip – Remove Sidebar widgets

Many of the StudioPress themes come with the categories, archives,blogroll and admin widgets already coded into the site (meaning you don’t have to add them through the widgets menu). While this is a great option for many people, if you don’t want those widgets in those positions or you want to wait until you have [...]

[VIDEO] StudioPress Genesis……all I can say is ‘WOW!’

I’m such a geek….I almost started this post with the title “And the Oscar goes to…….Genesis!” Yes, it’s Oscar time…and even though I love movies, I’m not one of those people who wake up early to hear the Oscar nominees or hold an Oscar party…(no offense if you )….so thought against that title for search [...]

I’m guessing that many people -  when they choose a WordPress theme – start out by looking at the first and most obvious thing- which is the way the theme looks! While this is SUPER important (remember – I’m a total geek for anything visual! )- but the way the theme looks is easy enough [...]

StudioPress Tip – Remove Search Box [video]

One thing that can be a little tricky with a few of the StudioPress themes is not having enough room in your navigation bar for all your page titles (some of the themes will drop the pages to a row beneath the main navbar – but you may not want that). This video shows you [...]

StudioPress customization tip! [video]

Everyone knows how much I love using StudioPress themes. Every now and then I get a client or subscriber asking how to change out certain aspects of their theme. Recently I had a client ask me how to change out the color of the headline that appears in the widgets and featured content boxes of [...]

StudioPress Magazine Theme re-released

StudioPress has re-released the magazine theme! (It was released mid-July). Most people have probably heard of StudioPress themes, or at least seen them (maybe even just an ad on a site?). The Magazine theme was a previous theme that has been re-released. It’s got a little different layout (which most of them do vary somewhat…..the [...]

Featured Content Gallery pdf tutorial

Because I primarily use StudioPress themes (for my sites and client sites)- I’ve gotten pretty familiar with how this plugin works. StudioPress makes it pretty simple because they’ve already put the code into the theme in order to have the featured content gallery show on the home page (you can see where the gallery will [...]
