Before adding/changing any code or css in your theme, it is highly advisable that you create and activate a child theme.

Then add this to the bottom of your child theme style sheet:

#page {
padding-bottom: 0;
}

In your template file where you have your menu code add a conditional is_page() wrap around the menu code. Here is an example, ( this is meant only to guide, not a verbatim, copy and paste, solution. div and nav are included as a reference only to help you understand):

if( is_page( ‘dispatch-consolidation’ ) ) {
<nav class=”dispatch-menu”>
[YOUR Services Navigation MENU CODE]
</nav>
}

if( is_page( ‘team’ ) ) {
<div class=’team-menu’>
[YOUR team Navigation MENU CODE]
</div>
}

Remove this (and for your team menu also):
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘Services Navigation’ ) ); ?>

as it points to where on the page the menu should be displayed, not which page it should be displayed on.

<center> has been deprecated as of html5. It is not suggested to use that. Instead, open your header.php file and wrap your code a in div with a class of your choice, like “bannerDiv”. Here is an example:

<div class="bannerDiv">
  [YOUR CODE HERE]
</div>

Then to center add this in your css file:

.bannerDiv {
width: 728px;
margin: 2% auto;
}

As far as making it responsive, you will have to look at the code that you are using to add the banner. When the element is placed an inline style element is added (728px). If you can change this, then you can make it responsive. Let us know if you can and I will try to walk you through the changes to your css.

Before adding/changing any code or css in your theme, it is highly advisable that you create and activate a child theme. Then add this to your child theme style sheet:

.entry li {
list-style-position: outside;
margin-left: 1em;
}

If you choose to skip the child theme, simply add the above code to the bottom of your style.css file in your theme folder where you installed WP (file path: root -> wp-content -> themes -> zeebizzcard -> style.css).

As far as the images go, I think that is a bandwidth issue or a server issue (most likely free server issue). A cache plugin may help, but also may not. The images loaded a little slowly the first time I accessed your site, but no troubles after that.

Personally, I did not see either of the issues your described in your post.

You could simply add a top location to your calendar-events class in your child theme style sheet:

.mc-main .calendar-events {
top: 0;
}

Then the event displays at the top of the calendar instead of below the clicked on date…

Thanks, but I just switched the content that is retrieved.

So… you can manually add excerpts to your posts!? Wonderful!

I am still working on the full solution, but here is the solution for the slider:

Write your excerpts manually using the method detailed above.

Then…

If you created a child theme (if you did not, I will cry, so do not tell me, and just follow these directions and skip the bits about creating and copying the file…), you will need to create a folder called ‘includes’ in your child theme folder and copy the file called ‘slider.php’ from the includes folder in the main theme folder to the new includes folder in your child theme directory. Then open the new copy of slider.php.

[Read this first as it becomes clear when you see the final bit]
Go to line 52 and copy $contents = get_the content(); to line 53 so you have that twice. Then wrap the first $contents = get_the content(); in a comment tag. On the uncommented line (line 53) change content() to excerpt(). Here is how it should look:

<?php
/*$content = get_the_content();*/
$content = get_the_excerpt();
$content = strip_tags($content);
echo substr($content, 0, 150). ‘…’;
?>

Save the file and refresh your screen. IF this does not work, the above is much easier to reverse (delete the get_the_excerpt line and uncomment the original).

This is a total hack, but it works…

I see it now. I apologize. I just “looked” at the overlay without “seeing” the words. Now, with your explanation, I see it. I will look for your new post.

I am happy that I could help you with your styling!
