    Good evening guys,
    been a long time since I have really put any time into wordpress or web development so please bear with me as I'm sure my questions are somewhat... simple. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

    website: centralrangeservice.com (i am creating a new header and main home image shortly)

    Theme is - Colorway

    Questions
    1. how to remove "beauty at its best" from the home page.
    2. how to center all of the navigation options
    3. changing the color of the theme as far the navigation bar and all accents (going from that stock green to a lighter blue to match the logo)
    4. how to go about Removing "categories, archive and search bar from right widget area of pages and centering all content on those pages.

    Thank you for any help.

    Right OK
    Themes can differ from each other
    Some have more flexibility than others
    Check in the admin side panel and see if you have any options like "theme options" or settings
    This may allow make some alterations to the menu or the text beauty at its best
    Check also general settings to see if it is defined anywhere
    If these dont work you will have to edit the CSS. You should be able to change your menu easily enough depending how your theme is laid out.
    Also check the area were it says Beauty at its best
    and see if its hard coded into the site if so just delete it

    Your first issue with "beauty" is because you have a slider there.

    I am not sure if this will help you but here is the css for it:
    .slide .slide-content.entry {
    1. /* background: url(../images/purple.png); */
    2. /* border-right: 4px solid #757575; */
    }

    I would suggest that you find out if your theme developer has a support program.

    Great, thank you for your help. I deleted it and it helped. I appreciate it.

    How can I go about changing the back ground color on the navigation menu from the green to a blue?

    Also check your theme options. Looks like this theme might have an easy way to change the colors.

    So the basic version doesn't have a color picker, just make sure that you do all the CSS over-rides in the theme options portion.
