Testimonials and Site Logo on Sela requires the Jetpack by WordPress.com plugin. Do you have that plugin installed and connected to WordPress.com?

Testimonials are a Custom Post Type and you can read more on that here: http://jetpack.me/support/custom-content-types/
For the Site Logo, see here: http://jetpack.me/support/site-logo/
Ah ha! No, we did not have Jetpack installed, but now we do.
Thanks very much for the answer and the support links, sacredpath.

Hi guys,
I wondered if you can help? I can’t get the testimonials or the front page widgets to show up on my page… any suggestions as to what i am doing wrong? http://www.unearththepast.com
michala007 – testimonials require the Jetpack plugin’s Custom Content Types module, as you must have discovered since I see them active on your site, along with the front page widgets. It looks good! Are you all set?
Hi Kathryn
Thank you so much for the reply! I managed to get the front page working but I am struggling to get the ‘Front Page Title Box’ smaller and if possible more ‘see-through’ so it does not obstruct the main image on the front page. Is there anything I can do for this?
Thank you
You’re welcome!
Something like this should get you started:
.front-page-content-area .with-featured-image {
opacity: 0.7;
width: 300px;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 0;
}
You can change the values of everything as you like.
Kathryn you are a superstar!
I will have a go! This is the first website I have ever created so wish me luck…
Oh wow, you are doing great so far! 😀
Complete novice. Cant get the testimonials on the front page. already downloaded jetpack but cant see a plug in option on the dashboard to install it.
