New GP Install Help

Hello. I have installed GP on https://massage4.life. Can someone please tell me how to reproduce the heading I have now in the Beaver Builder theme in GP?
Thanks in advance,
MH
Hi there,
This should give you that look: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/navigation-logo/#navigation-as-header
Let me know.
Thanks. Any advice for editing the color of the background?
Thanks,
MH
Should be Customizer > Colors > Primary Navigation > Background
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/colors-overview/
Hello again. Man, I looked carefully and not only is there not a setting for "Customizer > Colors > Primary Navigation > Background" there doesn't appear to be any way that I can see to actually set the background of the heading to pink as I have it now on https://massage4.life.
If I cannot get the header the same way I cannot use the theme. Please advise.
Regards,
MH

Upon viewing the page source of your site, I see that you are not using GeneratePress as your theme. It shows that the site is using the Beaver Builder Child theme, which would explain why you cannot find the settings in the Customizer that Leo mentioned.
You should perhaps contact Beaver Builder for support on this issue :)
Cheers!

You know, I am not an idiot. I switched back to the BB child theme when I could not edit the GP to menu background.
I can switch back if you want but there is not setting for menu background that I can see.
MH
You did not mention that you had switched themes :)
To change the Primary Navigation background when you have GP-Premium installed and correctly activated:
Dashboard > Customize > Colors > Primary Navigation > all the nav color items are set here :)
Keep in mind that you have to have the Colors option activated in Dashboard > Appearance > GeneratePress > Colors = Active for this to appear in the Customizer.
Thanks. The issue was with activating everything. How can I remove the name of the page "Home Page III" from the top of the page?

Also, how can I make the image at the top display in full width?
Thanks,
MH
You can disable Content Title using the disable element metabox:

As for the full width image, since you are using BB you'd have to do it within the plugin.
Hmm, the image is already setup to be full screen when using the Beaver Builder theme. Why would I have to change the image to use with GP?
MH
Trying using Full Width here: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/page-builder-container/
That seems to have solved the issue. Thanks so much for all of your assistance.
