This was a really helpful tutorial. Is it possible to add a second widget in the header? I’m using the 3 column layout in Thesis 1.7.

I am getting a parse error: “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in … : eval()’d code on line 24″
I am using in openhook plugin and with full-width. I also have been playing today, so I have a custom header background code in place and/or logo image code in place.
Could this all be causing an issue when trying to play together?

Thanks, am hoping to get this going to play around with it a bit.

Can you please suggest a way to place a widget just *below* the header? I want to use it for announcements etc. I already have my navbar below the banner so it will mean having a widget just below navbar and stretched across entire length for announcements. My site: http://blog.thetradersforum.net/

Any help will be much appreciated.

Does this work with Thesis 1.7? I add the code as specified and nothing shows up in my widgets or on my homepage.
Thanks!

Chris,

I’m using your widget…but it seems you can only really apply one item to this area? I need a clickable logo and a search box and one is overlaying the other. Any ideas?

I’m trying to use this widget (thank you VERY much) to place two items in the top banner. A clickable image with a search box under it horizontally. Is that possible? Right now they are both aligning on top of each other in the same space!

Thanks in advance.

Oh! Wait! I just realized that I’m working with a full-page layout? Is *that* the problem?

Hi, Chris.

Is it possible that, because I’ve already inserted a custom header, something in *this* code conflicts with that, and that’s the reason I can’t see my widgetized header? Or is there an iframe issue? I’ve placed my banner code into the widget, but nothing’s showing up.

Hi Chris,
the sharp skin is awesome and your tutorials easy to follow!
Thanks a lot for your great work and sharing it with us.

I’m starting a new blog and I chose your sharp skin. I would like to ask you, how you made the | line in the nav. menu and also how to make the header logo not bolded? I’ve been looking for it in custom.css and layout file as well, making some changes but no result.

Thanks a lot for your time
Justyna

Thanks so much,

Thanks for the tutorial…it was very easy to follow (and I’m a newbie). Quick question….I added a text widget in the header and added code to make the text clickable, but it doesn’t allow you to click on it. The link works if I put it in a page or post but not in the header….any thoughts?
