Navigation Bar below header

[sexandmetal]

Hello,

I would like to start off by saying this WP theme is awesome and daunting at the same time

I have have begun to build the blog for website Sex and Metal #NSFW and I have stumbled across a couple problems with the navigation bar that I can not seem to fix.

I have set my pages so I have a static front page (Enter Page) and I do not want to have the header, search bar or navigation bar, can anyone tell me who I can clean this up ?

Lastly when you go to Feed #NSFW the headline of the post comes up in the navigation bar and I can not figure out for the life of me why, I have been changing all of the Menu options around since I saw it and can not figure it out.

I hope some one is willing to help and forgive my longwinded thread.

Kind Regards,

~M

Go and edit your static home page. Below the edit area on the Edit Page screen you have the group "Additional Options For Suffusion". From there, on the General Settings tab which is displayed by default, you can hide title, navigation bar, site header and site footer. These options are intended exactly for what you wish - to make a splash screen as landing page of site.

Hi Drake,

Thank you, I had already sorted it out.

I do have a new problem with widgets if you can help ?

If you don't ask I can't

haha, opps.

I have removed the Social widget from the sidebar and put it above the header I like it above the header I just dont like the big white box that surrounds it, is there CSS to make the box black but the social icons will still be there ?

Also when I removed the sidebar widgets its like there is 30 default widgets that automatically put them self in the side bar. I have opted for no side bars in the page settings but they are still there, so I have put a google translate there for the time being.

Any advice would be awesome.

Thank you Drake.

The custom css you need is

Code: Select all

#widgets-above-header .suf-widget {background:transparent;}


BUT doing this will render 2 of your icons invisible you need to replace them with colourful ones not black and grey.

As to your second issue with the sidebar you haven't set it up properly in Suffusion Options run through the settings again.

Thank you very much Drake, that worked perfectly.

For the first question you can add at Suffusion Options -> Backend -> Custom Includes -> Custom Styles:

Code: Select all

#suf-subscription-2 {background:none;border:none;}

BUT, you need to change the icons for Twitter and Facebook. You use transparent png's and will not be visibile on the black background.

Or, add this at Custom Styles (will make the widget smaller):

Code: Select all

#suf-subscription-2 {width:100px;height:45px;}

For loosing the default widgets you need to go at Suffusion Options -> Sidebars -> Sidebar 1 -> Default widgets for first sidebar and choose "Hide default widgets if nothing is added in the widget control panel"
If widgets are still there after the step above, then go to Appearance -> Widgets and simply drag out the widgets from Sidebar 1.
