Josh, beautiful design. I love the look of this child theme. I tried loading it up on my test blog and I got the following error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function genesis_get_slider_option() in /home1/draftnug/public_html/realmendriveminivans/lab/wp-content/themes/sinatra/functions.php on line 81
Domain link is http://www.realmendriveminivans.com/lab
Any idea what I did wrong here? Thanks in advance.

Hey PJ, You didn’t do anything wrong… I did.
I’ve updated the functions.php so try downloading and installing again. Thanks for the tip!
Sweet! Thanks, got it all loaded up. Great work. Thanks again.

Sinatra is really beautiful!! for the Home Page Slider, are you using the genesis slider itself because I’m trying to use the genesis slider but the slider is not taking the full page width
Hi Noorani – glad you like the Sinatra theme!
Yes, I’m using the Genesis Slider. In the settings, I have the slider width set to 960 pixels and the slider height set to 320 pixels. Give that a shot to see if it fixes it for you.
