In reply to: How to customize a particular button in the menu barThe best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

In reply to: Backup-Can I simply copy wp files to my hard driveIf you are on a Cpanel hosting account, there should be a backup utility there and will save it to your server, then you can download that to your computer. Very simple and backs up everything.

In reply to: Button to page how to connect?That theme is interesting but has zero documentation.
Appearance > Customize and you will see Homepage APPS Options, open that then App Options 2 should be what you are looking for, scroll down and you can select the page you want to attach to that app option.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: WP Google Fonts IssuesYou have a child theme, you can add this to your functions.php file and add whatever google fonts you want, then style them with your style sheet or in your post editor for pages/posts. You will see in this snippet there are 5 google fonts, change those to what you want. No plugin needed.
// Add Google Font add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_google_font' ); function my_google_font() { wp_enqueue_style( $handle = 'my-google-font', $src = 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Playball|Dosis|Raleway|Orbitron|Tangerine', $deps = array(), $ver = null, $media = null ); }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Numbered ListIt should be something like this:
Numbered list:<ol> <li>First Paragraph </li> <li>second Paragraph </li> </ol>Bulleted lists use
<ul></ul>instead of<ol></ol>This is easy to fix in the text editor.

In reply to: [Customizr] footer image not loading.#redellconsulting, do you have any idea as to what is happening? The charcoal color of the footer BG isn’t in any css I can find, should be defaulting to white but it’s not. I can add background-color using the same selector and that does work, but that’s not what I want.
Here’s the CSS from my child regarding this:
body { background: url(http://www.resultsresumes.net/wp-content/uploads/concrete-bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed; -webkit-background-size: cover; -moz-background-size: cover; -o-background-size: cover; background-size: cover; } /* Sticky Header Backgound Image */ .tc-sticky-header .tc-header { background: url(http://youneedthissite.com/resultsresumes/wp-content/uploads/concrete_seamless.png); } /* Header Backgound Image */ .tc-header { background: url(http://youneedthissite.com/resultsresumes/wp-content/uploads/concrete_seamless.png); } /* Footer Backgound Image */ footer#footer .colophon { background: url(http://youneedthissite.com/resultsresumes/wp-content/uploads/concrete_seamless.png) repeat 0 0; }
