This theme supports 2 types of menus: a primary menu and a social icons menu

Primary Menu

This menu allows for link children. If a link as children it will allow for a dropdown menu to appear when the link is hovered over in Desktop mode and a clickable slide-out feature in Mobile.

Anything deeper than one level of link children will not show and/or break the menu.

Social Icons Menu

Tip: To read more about using the WordPress menus: WordPress Menu User Guide.

WidgetsBack to top

This theme supports widgets for 3 types of areas: sidebar, welcome widget and latest images widget.

Both the Welcome widget and Latest IMGS widget areas will not appear unless you create an active widget within the assigned widget area.

Full Header Layout: Latest IMGS Widget Style #01

This style works well if you aren't using the welcome widget. This will allow the Latest IMGS widget to fit the entire widget area, and therefore you can feature one long row of thumbnails.

CPMFetch PHP Code:

Copy and paste this code into a PHP-enabled widget in the assigned area for latest images:

<?php include "../cpg/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
	$objCpm = new cpm("../cpg/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
	$options = array('windowtarget' => '_blank', 'tablestyle' => 'cpmfetchtable', 'imagestyle' => 'tooltip image');
	$objCpm->cpm_viewLastAddedMedia(1,9,$options);
	$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>
The ideal numbers for this theme would be 1,9


Full Header Layout: Latest IMGS Widget Style #02

This style ONLY works if you adjust the amount of rows and thumbnails to show in the CPMFetch include. This will allow the Latest IMGS widget to push to the right of the welcome widget and you can display your thumbnails in two rows rather than one.

CPMFetch PHP Code:

Copy and paste this code into a PHP-enabled widget in the assigned area for latest images:

<?php include "../cpg/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
	$objCpm = new cpm("../cpg/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
	$options = array('windowtarget' => '_blank', 'tablestyle' => 'cpmfetchtable', 'imagestyle' => 'tooltip image');
	$objCpm->cpm_viewLastAddedMedia(2,5,$options);
	$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>
The ideal numbers for this theme would be 2,5
