It is still showing 2013 for me, not a blank page

~~

Thanks Redneck, will try that

Now is showing 2013 because I removed Symbiostock, re-installed but not activated it. If I activate it is showing blank. I'm waiting for Leo.

CleanTheme (or any other child theme) will change the styling of your site, such as fonts, colors some spacing and it may occasionally move a few elements around on the page. 

It will not create new content or install any plugins so you are still free to build your home page to look any way you want.  If you want a home page with a slider you will need to make sure you are creating and setting a static home page (probably using the Home Page CTA template)  in WordPress instead of defaulting to the blog page.

There are many threads on setting up your home page and which plugins and widgets people are using.  I hope to have time to do a full tutorial on this soon at Symbioguides.  In the meantime, here is a thread where Chico shared a marked up screen shot of the home page structure:
http://www.microstockgroup.com/19164/19164/msg316106/#msg316106

If you read through that post and the others in that thread is should give you a good starting point.


Thank you Amanda, I will take a look after Leo will fix my Symbiostock, I have again blank page problem.
Have a nice day,


I'm here. I'm just going to send you the new version, and bypass the issue. Specifically there's a line of code that has a "&" which php is not recognizing.

Someone can give me a link where to download the Home Page CTA?

Go to Pages - edit your home page - look for Templates, then select Homepage CTA

It is there already, not something you have to download

Hello Amanda, can you tell me please how can I make the Header menu a Drop Down menu on Clean Theme?

I assume it is the same as non Clean Theme


http://www.symbioguides.com/getting-started/initial-setup-menus/

then use the

Image Categories in the Appearance, Menus section

If Image Categories is not showing click on Screen Options at the top right of the page to get a drop down to enable different items to show - this is the same for nearly all wordpress pages.

Scuse me, I think I didn't expressed myself well. I want some kind of multilevel drop-down menu. With normal method it shows only the first level subcategory in the menu. If I have sub sub categories they are not visible...

I gave up on that, never got it to work.  Got around it by having different links in my headers

Do you have your subcategories indented in your menu list?

I have subcategories and they work ok, the only issue i have is that the down arrow doest appear on all of them, but fortunately they fly out, so buyers will know they are there.


If you had them indented and it didnt work, i dont have an answer. I know other people have said its glitchy. Maybe Amanda_K will check in...she might be able to shed some light on it. Sorry, im not much help.

I don't have down arrows on all of mine either - strangely enough it is Dogs and that has lots of subs

How did you managed Christine to see the third level categories?

By Indenting in the menues.

I have remembered now - it was on the complete category page that I could not get the sub-sub categories to show - just drag and drop to indent such as

All categories
>> Animals
>>>>Dogs
>>>>>>Afghan
>>>>>>Basenji
>>>>>>Dobermann
>>Backgrounds
>>Landscape
>>Food
>>>>ready made
>>>>drinks


etc

Yes I done in this way. Now I did it again and it works. I have a problem with Mozilla cash. I cancel it but it's not refreshing contents. I saw it in Safari now, is ok. Look under Browse Portfolio: www.food.ezeepics.com Thank you for help.  ;)

I never figured why the down arrows wouldn't always show, so I added them to the menu item labels as needed:

Code: [Select]
<i class="icon-chevron-down"> </i>

And you indented the third level even more from the second? And you refreshed your cache?  :)  If you have them indented correctly, i would leave them, go work on something else, then come back. They might be ok. Sometimes things act weird like that.  :)

Your site is looking good overall - how did you get your categories in columns?

One thing I did notice - I went to your Spanish Cuisine and the dynamic preview flash and do not load properly
