• How can I create the space after the header so that I can redirect widget locations put images and opt ins and stuffs.

    I encircled the area I’m talking about in yellow in this link

    Also, I would like the widget sidebar area to be pushed down (purple arrow) once I created that space. I imagine this can be simultaneously done but how?

  • A lot depends on your theme. You can probably add a new widgetized div area to header.php. Hope that means something to you.

    I’m actually using Thesis. I got around it by creating an image that has three box in it. I then encoded it to have a relative position so that I can then position other stuffs like subscription forms, opt-ins, latest widgets in absolute.

    The problem I now have is, how will I make this image that I created disappear in other pages.

    Have a look at this.

    Noticed how on the home page, she had those three box? but when you go to about page and her other page, they disappear. After investigation I found out he used two headers. One with the three box in and the other was without those boxes.

    Question. How could you achieve that effect? Having that header appear only on home page and not throughout the site.

    I do not have access to the thesis theme, so I can’t offer any help. You should ask on the Thesis support forum.

    I have not use that theme and my guess is that must have created a custom template for home where those boxes are included in template and then another template for other pages.

    how can i have two templates in one wordpress site?

    Go this page will explain to you what you can have

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages

    In Appearance “Current Theme Options” you can set up a “Notice” section that will appear at the top of the home page.

    If you have a sidebar there is a “Showcase” banner just below the “Notice” section that will appear at the top of the sidebar.

    With a little tweaking you could make it look like your image. The only problem with that is the showcase will show on all pages that has the sidebar.

    A better way, you can place a container div at the bottom of your header, after the last </div> tag, and place your boxes/divs inside that container, and float them left.

    Actually you could probably do it without the container, as long as you don’t need to set the background to match the color of your page.
