    Download Genesis Nav Menu Amplified When 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…

    I was looking through the posts on actions and realized that there was one important tip I left out. If you haven’t read up on the actions already, you should probably start at the beginning. To make it easier I have tagged all of the articles with an “Actions” tag, so check out the Actions…

    In the previous part of the series, Framework Actions, I explained where to look for Genesis Actions, and how to remove, move, or alter them using hooks. In this continuation of that article I will be explaining how to work with your own functions, and a couple of really cool tricks with using existing functions…

    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. If the hooks are those bumps, the…

    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…

    If you follow my personal blog or me on twitter, then you know I decided to change how archives display Gallery post formats. Previously I had the full content showing for galleries and just included a short tag. Mostly I like that, since people could view my images directly in the archive, but this wouldn’t…

    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. I used An Alternative Method for Adding a Tweet Button from the StudioPress Dev site as a starting point, but found it didn’t…
