    How to change the News and Events widget width?
    Currently the”News” took up 2/3 of the page width and “Events” took up 1/3 width.
    For the same space, I would like to put 3 columns with equal width as “Events”.
    How to do it?

    Hello,

    We are sorry for the inconvenience but we are not able to completely understand your issue.

    We are assuming that you would want a third column on the news and event section, but we will not be able to do that for you because as much as we would love to help you, the theme doesn’t support this customization and this is beyond the support offered for our products, which consists of bug fixing and theme documentation.

    Although it is possible for you to achieve your request on the theme with advanced code customization of the theme, it might effect other parts of the theme, like its design and at times its functionality.

    It would be wise not to customize the code yourself if you do not have knowledge on programming,
    Our suggestion to you is to hire a professional developer for your customization, so that your theme will no be effected in any way.

    To hire a developer please follow the link below

    We hope it helps,
    Best Regards.

    This may be slightly off topic yet related. But it is the closest I could find. I don’t see anywhere how to add a new thread?

    Idealy I would like to place the “News” option above the “Featured Content” area below the slider. I can’t figure out how to accomplish this. I could use a text widget in that are but I can’t figure out how to place one in that location either?

    I would appreciate your help.
    Thank you, Jim R

    Hello @jim,

    We apologize for the last time response, we did find a way to add the news and events section on top of the featured content for you.

    But this process is little lengthy and you will have to follow certain steps to make it work.

    So, first of all you will have to create a child theme for the theme you are using currently.
    You can use a simple child theme creating plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-child-theme-generator/

    Now after you have created the child theme you can simply add the below given Code to your child themes function.php

    function education_hub_custom_change_order(){
    
     	remove_action( 'education_hub_action_before_content', 'education_hub_add_home_news_event', 8 );
    	remove_action( 'education_hub_action_before_content', 'education_hub_add_featured_content', 6 );
    
    	add_action( 'education_hub_action_before_content', 'education_hub_add_home_news_event', 6 );
    	add_action( 'education_hub_action_before_content', 'education_hub_add_featured_content', 6 );
    }
    
    add_action( 'init','education_hub_custom_change_order' );

    Hope it helps.
    Best regards.

    WEN,
    I’m having a problem with the child theme creator. I have always used “one click child theme creator” plugin. I tried it and it breaks the site, meaning none of the customization I’ve done show up and posts and images are showing up randomly all over the screen. I thought maybe I should used the “wp child theme generator” plugin you suggested. I still have the same problem.

    If you would like to contact me through my email tjjr5857@cox.net I will set a user and pass so you can take a look.
    Thank you, Jim R

    Hello @jredmond,

    If you are having trouble using child theme creator plugins in your website, you can also try creating a child theme for your theme manually.

    To learn more about manual child theme creation please see the link here : https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    Also, Please note that upon creation of child theme and activation, the customization made in the parent theme are not applied to the child theme by default.

    Hope this helps you to resolve the issue.

    Best Regards !!
