• Can anyone in the WP community give me some direction/HELP? I’m trying to use the Iconic One theme. Three things i’m looking to change:I would like to change the header, the color of title in posts and would like to post youtube video in sidebar unfortunately i don’t have a tech savvy gene in my body and can’t find info on how to customize.
    I’m seriously considering swithcing themes and I found a free theme in newWPthemes that I really like, “Lively Theme”

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

  • Hi Darby,
    If you can post a link to your site i can take a look at it and try to come up with some css that can help you with your title colors and such.

    Mean while i can tell you the way to post YouTube videos on your site. If you have a sidebar widget all you have to do is drag and drop the Text widget into the sidebar you will be using and enter the embed code. Give it a title and Shazaam your set.

    To get the embed code for your youtube video just click on share and then embed. You will see the code there. This is what the code looks like:

    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/zUtnwcv-quE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Hope this helps a bit. If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

    Hey Wolfy & Brain,
    thanks for the quick response! As you will see ive been playing with the header and it’s overlapping my logo (if you want to call it that)on the left, trying to move it further to the right. I appreciate the video help and will follow your directions.
    Here is my link http://www.atm-411.com/ I’m not sure if the customization of this theme is limited or I’m limited? I thought this would be a fairly easy theme to set up so I’m pretty sure it me that is the problem (lol)

    Again than you for taking the time and pointing me in the right direction!

    Try applying the background to the masthead instead of the hgroup.

    #masthead {
        background: url('http://www.atm-411.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/atm-triton-banner.jpg') no-repeat transparent;
        background-position: top right;
        border: none;
    }
