Hi Chris,
Is there a way to delete the blog part of this website? Or is there a way to delete the links that sections that say, “Catagories”, “Archives”, “Recent comments” and “Meta”?
It looks like you already figured that out – wonderful! You might also be interested in the tips in this article:
Using WordPress.com to Create a WebsiteFor the PayPal button, please follow these instructions:
PayPalIf you still have trouble, let me know which step there you’re getting stuck at and what happens when you try to follow it.

So if I want to use a Paypal button that has a drop down menu option I have to find a new host?
-
O.K., that’s fine.
My next question is. When I bought the template , I assumed that the layout was going to look exactly how the layout was in the live demo. We want to be able to have the picture slide show on the front page with the see through description (as shown in the live demo for the “organization theme” -
Hi Chris – To set that up, you need to edit the page you are using as your front page and choose the “Home Page” template in the Page Attributes module:
http://cl.ly/image/0Q0W0r3n0J3cNote that when you do that, the text that you’ve entered for your front page won’t appear, so you should move that text to a post rather than a page:
Post vs. PageThen please follow the instructions under “Homepage Image Gallery” here:
http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/organization/support/The slider at the top will display featured images from the posts you have tagged with your chosen tag, as explained in those instructions. Note that setting a featured image is a bit different than simply adding an image to a post. Here is how to set a featured image:
Featured ImagesIf you get stuck, please let me know which step in the theme’s instructions you’re having trouble with, and what happens when you try to follow it.

I believe I figured it all out. The last thing I need to do is to add the kinda see through text box that they have in the header that you can click on.
-
On the Organization theme website it says, “This is an example post excerpt. You can use the excerpt to write a post description that will display in the featured slideshow. If no excerpt is added, no content will be displayed on top of the featured content slideshow image.” and it has a white bold title right above it.
-
Hi there – Awesome, it’s looking good! You’ll want to add your excerpt in the Excerpt module below the post editor, as pictured here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/excerpts/#creating-excerptsIf you don’t see that Excerpt module, click the Screen Options tab in the upper right-hand corner of your Dashboard and make sure it’s enabled:

Hi there – if you click the Screen Options button when you’re in the post editor:

And then check the Excerpt box:

You should see the text box to place your own description of the post.
Hope that helps!

On the top of our page when you go to the drop down menus, and you look at the tabs “CONTRIBUTE”, “SPONSORS”, and “CONTRIBUTE”; there are spaces in the middle of the words and won’t scoot in to look like normal words.
The next thing is, if you huver over projects and you see, “EXTREME CHRISTMAS MAKEOVER 2013”, the green box doesn’t move over enough to keep the word makeover in the box, and it does the same thing for it’s it’s parent “EXTREME CHRISTMAS MAKEOVER 2012”

It looks like you figured this part out already, as I can see the words correctly with no spaces in the middle. Please let me know if that’s not the case and I can look into it for you.

This is because the Organization theme has a set width for the dropdown menu’s and because your title is longer than this, it’s breaking out of the container. The easiest option is to try and shorten your title to fit into the dropdown menu.
If not, you could do this instead with the Custom Design upgrade, using the following code:
ul.menu ul { width: 230px; } ul.menu li li:hover ul, ul.menu li li.sfHover ul { left: 230px; }That would make your menu look like this:

On internet explorer there’s no gaps, but if you try to view the page with google chrome, there is. I have attached a screen shot for you on the page called Test. This is how to the words look. ‘CONTRI BUTE”
“PROJ ECTS” and “SPONS ORS” -

“PROJ ECTS” and “SPONS ORS”That’s strange indeed!
I’m using Chrome myself and there are no gaps between the words like that. Could you try upgrading your version of Chrome? I’m on version 31.0.1650.57 and it looks like you’re running 30.0.1599.101.
Here’s a screenshot of what I’m seeing here:
