  1. Hi Tuan,

    What code should I use to split the navigation so that the logo is in the center and the navigation is on either side of the logo? I am using the Five Template.

    Thanks!

  2. Hi Tuan!
    The Five template automatically hides the page description on mobile, and I can’t figure out how to override that on my homepage. Can you help? Thank you!

      /* show page description mobile */
      @media screen and (max-width:640px) {
      body.homepage {
      div#page-description {
      display: block !important;
      }
      div#banner-area {
      margin-left: 0 !important;
      }
      div#banner-area p {
      margin-left: 0 !important;
      margin-right: 0 !important;
      width: 100% !important;
