I just discovered the Grid Loop Wiki and found my answer there.

Here is the code I used (courtesy of Bill Erickson):

function be_homepage_grid_args( $args, $query ) {
	if( is_home() )
		$args['features_on_front'] = 2;

	return $args;
}
add_filter( 'genesis_grid_loop_args', 'be_homepage_grid_args', 10, 2 );

I just updated my CSS with your code and the images came back. Looks like everything is back to normal. Thanks very much for your help, I never would have figured that out!

Thanks for the feedback, I’ll try your CSS idea. I’ve gone ahead and turned on NextGen for you. Again, here is a link to the site.

Thanks,

Still struggling to find an explanation for the incompatibility. When I run NextGen and Meteor at the same time, all the Meteor slideshows just disappear. When I turn NextGen off, they re-appear. I tried running the “Restore jQuery” plugin to see if that would help, but it makes no difference at all.

Been messing with this all day, and still no luck. I’m getting a lot of blur and pixelation.

Is anyone having this problem with their thumbnails?

I’m getting the same error. I’m using WordPress 3.4.1.

When I created the subdomain it automatically created a new file directory. It’s not that I wanted to link to an empty subdomain, it’s just that I didn’t know what to put in it to get what I wanted. I just used your advice and copied my source code from the WordPress site. That seemed to do the trick. Sorry, I know this stuff seems obvious when you know what you’re doing, but I’m just learning. Thanks for all the help, I really really appreciate it!

Thanks for the response mercime, I really appreciate your help. I want the subdomain page to appear the exact same way as the rest of my WordPress site, but I’m unsure of what I need to put in the subdomain folder to make that happen.

So I’ve installed the plugin and followed the directions, but when I try and access the page at my subdomain URL I get a “403 Forbidden” error. I’m guessing that this might be because the html folder in my subdomain directory is empty and lacks an index.php file. Would this be correct? If so, what do I need to include in my index.php file to allow the page to show?

Thanks for the link mercime, I’ll check that out!!

Still having trouble with this. If there is someone out there with ANY clue how to do this, I’d be very very appreciative.

UPDATE: Found the solution: Removed title=”yourtexthere” from the links in my header and gallery.php file.

I found the solution. The nav text is located in the nggfunctions.php file.

Sorry for the premature post!

Thanks for the feedback Csleh. I’ll definitely look into getting more information on the CSS specifics.

I still have some questions about how all of this actually comes together.

I assume that I can get the background image to show up purely through defining and placing the proper CSS into my template. My real concern right now is the mechanics of styling the text and targeting the links within the graphic background, and furthermore, how this relates to the way WordPress works. Lets just say that I have all my copy written up in a WordPress page, how then do I access this text for styling in my CSS stylesheet? If you look at the image I linked to in my first post you can see that there are a few different styles/sizes of text, how do I define portions of the text in my page to style differently than others?

Is it perhaps better for me to just create a blank page in WordPress and use CSS and PHP to create the whole thing including the text?

As you can see, I’m somewhat at a loss here. ??

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply, good to know.

Can you tell me where the database stores this info now?

I’m having a developer work on a few things for me and he is not familiar with where these values are stored.
