Genesis Nav Menu Amplified

Download Genesis Nav Menu AmplifiedWhen Genesis 1.6 came out support for the Page and Category menus were dropped in favor of making the custom nav menu easier to use. Most of the time this is a good thing; however, there are times when using the traditional menus is helpful, especially when only needing to show pages or categories in a given … [Read more...]

To make it easier I have tagged all of the articles with an "Actions" tag, so check out the Actions archive. Now that you know what actions are, how to … [Read more...]

Genesis Explained Actions

In the previous article in this series I explained how Genesis is a framework that is not dissimilar from working with Legos. I listed out all the built in hooks and used the analogy that those are like the bumps that let you attach bricks to each other.

Genesis Explained: The Genesis Theme Framework

There is a lot of confusion about how Genesis works, and I think that results in more than a little frustration for developers starting work on the framework. In a traditional theme they start by copying key components into new files. For example, they might look for a single.php, page.php or index.php to start customizing single post pages.

Add Hashtags to Your Tweet Button

There are some great plugins out there for adding a tweet button to your site, but a very small amount of code can add this via your theme without the extra plugin.
