Hi Juan,
I really love this theme! Great job!
Im having trouble with the Info Boxes. I have setup 3 info boxes, and would like 2 out of the 3 to link to separate blogs with specific categories. Right now, when I click on 2 of the Info Boxes it takes me to one blog with all of the posts, even though I categorized them.Also, where do I change the hover state color for the Info Boxes?
Thank you.

Thanks for your kind words 🙂
I’ve been through your site and I saw that you are not using the complete URL when setting up the “Read More” URL for the infoboxes. You must include http://
Regarding the hover color, you’ll need to work a bit on the CSS there. For example:
.infobox .entry-excerpt a.read-more:hover{ background: #some-hex-color !important; }
Replace #some-hex-color with the color you wish to use for your button hover state.
Best,

I don’t undersand the question. Can you explain me a bit more?
Best,

I would like to have one blog for ‘monthly specials and events’ with those posts (category) and a separate blog for ‘upcoming tastings’ with posts categorized ‘tastings’ there. Is that possible?Juanfra Aldasoro March 21, 2013 at 5:16 pmHi,
You can’t create 2 blogs. But that’s not because of the theme. That’s a WordPress limitation.
What you can do is edit those links and set them to the different categories templates. For example:
http://your-site.com/category/monthly-specials-and-events/ and http://your-site.com/category/tastings/ (You should create a parent category “Tastings”, and then child categories for that category..”Beer Tasting”, “Wine Testing”, etc).Best,
Juan.
