    Hi Everyone,

    I’m relatively new to WordPress.
    Our site is https://www.idtrythat.com
    I love the Sydney theme, and have a few questions.

    1) I’m trying to make it so my blog posts don’t show up on the front page. I understand this can be done with a static page.
    That being said, I want to enable the full page slider for only my front page, while keeping the rest of the site on the normal header.
    If I switch over to a static front page, how do I set it to be the only page using the slider?

    2) If you look in the nav menu, the text is aligned with the top of it. Is there a way to align the link text to the bottom of the nav menu?
    Also, is it possible to align the text to the center?

    3) Rather than using plain text as my headline, I’d like to use our logo.
    In essense, it would just be our logo, with the call to action button directly below it. How would I do this?

    4) On Mobile, the website shows the initial loading page (the bouncing dot) but then fails to display the sliding text, or button. I’m currently searching for a solution to this.

    Thanks everyone for your help.

    Update:

    I realized that the reason that HTML modification hasn’t been working is because i’ve been trying to mess with header.php when I should be in the slider.php.

    I found this tag:

    <h2 class="maintitle"><?php echo esc_html($slider_title_1); ?></h2>
                                <p class="subtitle"><?php echo esc_html($slider_subtitle_1); ?></p>
                            </div>

    And replaced with this

    <h2 class="maintitle"><?php echo esc_html($slider_title_1); ?><img src="https://idtrythat.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ID-Try-that-3-011.png" alt="things to do in rexburg" border="0" /></h2>
                                <p class="subtitle"><?php echo esc_html($slider_subtitle_1); ?></p>

    I then went into the CSS and added this line:

    .maintitle  {
        height: auto;
        width: auto;
        max-width: 300px;
        max-height: 300px;
    }

    However after doing this, it cut off the button part of the image, and the call to action button is gone. Where did I go wrong?

    UPDATE:

    I have figured out solutions for questions 1 and 2.

    I’m still stumped on 3 and 4.
