At the moment, it’s a very large featured image. I originally tried to place the image in the container background option (which is ideally where I would like it to go) and then change the min-height section to 600px, but when I added that to the style sheet it didn’t change anything, it stayed at 300px. I’m assuming it’s inheriting another style? Sorry, I’m still pretty new to this and learning as I go. Thanks again for your help.

div#content .padder {
border-left: medium none;
border-radius: 0 0 0 0;
border-right: medium none;
min-height: 600px;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 30px 10px 10px;
}

Thank you so much Konrad! It worked. That being said, I do have a child theme, but I couldn’t figure out how to eliminate the sidebar info, firebug only gets you so far, as a new kid to wordpress.

I’m creating a portfolio site to sell my images. Because the site is woocommerce compatible, I’m using easy rotator to load and display my images and keeping the background black other than my logo. Due to my lack of experience, and tired of trying to learn all of this in a short amount of time, I’ve realized it’s easier to keep the sidebars and place the content slider in the center. For some reason, when I add a .php file to my child side and add a new function changing the width of a slider, it turns my site completely white. So, I’ve chalked it up to inexperience and I’ve discovered a work around… sidebars! But as an exercise in torture I may give your responsive=disabled suggestion a whirl.

Thanks again for your help.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I still can’t get minimatica to work, but I tried a different theme and created a child site, using textedit and non-lossy ASCII and it worked. I’m not sure what part of the process made it work, but all that matters is that it does.

So, I created a plain text file with the .css extension but still nothing. I also tried to create a text version in dreamweaver and the convert to .css but still no success. And then I tried to create a text version and rename when i placed it onto the server, but that didn’t work either. When I activate my child of minimatica theme it says This child theme requires its parent theme, Minimatica. Is this normal, or does it not recognize the parent theme for some reason?

It works! So, clearly I’m the problem.

Ok. I just uploaded the themes folder onto wp-content/themes and nothing changed, it still looks the same. What am I doing wrong????
