This plugin adds resources links related to the <a href="http://genesis-theme-framework.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Genesis Framework</a> to the admin bar.
These resources include direct links to StudioPress support forums for each theme, quick access to Genesis Theme and SEO settings pages, quick access to Genesis-related plugin settings pages (for those that are active), and links to useful tutorial pages for how to get the most out of Genesis.
The plugin is built with theme and plugin developers in mind, as they can add support for their product with only a few lines of code, giving their users instant access to the right support board, a link to their website etc.
<ul>
<li>Adds support for menu item positioning, so custom entries can be added anywhere, and not just as the final items.</li>
<li>Easy addition of Support board links via single lines in theme <code>functions.php</code>.</li>
</ul>
This plugin is conceptual fork of the Genesis Admin Bar Addition plugin, re-written from scratch, adding new features.

<h3>Add Custom Items</h3>
Here’s an example which removes the StudioPress menu (you only need to remove the parent item to remove all of the child items too), moves the Support menu item to the bottom of the submenu and adds some custom menu items in:
<pre><code>add_action( 'gabp_menu_items', 'child_gabp_menu_items', 10, 3 );
/**
 * Amend the menu items in the Genesis Admin Bar Plus plugin.
 *
 * @param Genesis_Admin_Bar_Plus_Menu $menu
 * @param string $prefix
 * @param string $genesis
 */
function child_gabp_menu_items( $menu, $prefix, $genesis ) {
 $garyjones = $prefix . 'gary-jones';

 // Remove StudioPress item
 $menu->remove_item('studiopress');

 // Add Gary Jones item
 $menu->add_item( 'gary-jones', array(
 'parent' => $genesis,
 'title' => 'Gary Jones',
 'href' => 'http://garyjones.co.uk/',
 'position' => 30
 ) );

 // Add Gary Jones submenu items
 $menu->add_item( 'code-gary-jones', array(
 'parent' => $garyjones,
 'title' => 'Code Gallery',
 'href' => 'http://code.garyjones.co.uk/',
 'position' => 10
 ) );
 $menu->add_item( 'garyj', array(
 'parent' => $garyjones,
 'title' => 'GaryJ',
 'href' => 'http://twitter.com/GaryJ',
 'position' => 20
 ) );

 // Amend position of Support menu item - child items will move correctly too
 // as of v1.1
 $menu->edit_item( 'support', array(
 'position' => 50
 ) );
}<h3>Add Support Boards</h3>
</code></pre>
To a add a reference to a support board (perhaps for the child theme the active theme is based on, or a plugin the site uses, etc), you can add something like one of the following to the child theme <code>functions.php</code> file. 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-genesis’); // Adds direct link to Genesis support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-pretty-young-thing’); // Adds link to Pretty Young Thing child theme support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-prose’); // Adds link to Prose child theme support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-focus’); // Adds link to Focus child theme support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-translations’); // Adds direct link to Genesis Translations support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-plugins’); // Adds direct link to StudioPress Plugins support board 
 add_theme_support(‘gabp-support-genesisconnect’); // Adds direct link to GenesisConnect support board 
For child themes, the bit after the <code>gabp-support-</code> string must be the theme name, lowercase, with spaces replaced with hyphens.

The Genesis Grid plugin was design to allow users of the Genesis theme to easily display their posts in a grid format.
“Features” are full-width posts at the top of the listing. “Teasers” are the posts broken into columns. You can set the number of Features and Teasers for both the homepage and inner pages, and how many columns the teasers are broken into.
You can also specify the image sizes used for Features and Teasers. I recommend setting Features for Large, and Teasers for Medium. Then go to Settings > Reading and set the dimensions of those images as needed. If you have already uploaded images, use the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to rebuild the thumbnails at these dimensions. If images aren’t showing up, make sure you have “Include featured images” checked in Genesis > Theme Settings > Content Archives
Finally, you can specify where the grid loop is used by checking Home, Category Archives, Tag Archives, Taxonomy Archives, Author Archives, and/or Search Results. See the Developers section for more fine-grained control.
