    I've seen the wordpress theme "Proving Ground" that was a port of a stanch theme (http://skins.nucleuscms.org/blog/23)

    But I am looking for a port, or help porting this Stanch Theme (http://skins.nucleuscms.org/blog/16)

    Anyone know if this version exists?

    Try not to double-post especially when the last topic (a slightly different title) was posted just 30 minutes prior.

    Sorry, I didn't look where I was posting, and noticed the last topic in that area, was posted 4 months ago with no answer.

    I've tried my best to port over this theme myself and I've hit a roadblock...

    Is there anyone that is good with theme ports, that could possibly help me iron out some bugs?

    Thanks!

    Seemingly you have an unclosed div tag. Try to validate your page and it will show your where...

    Odd, it's telling me I didn't close the DIV for <div id="mainwrapper"> yet when I count my </div> tags, they add up.

    Is there anyone I can send what I have, and have them finish the port?

    Did you try adding a closing /div? Did it work?

    this is the code

    <div id="mainwrapper">
    <div id="wrapper">
    <div id="container">
    <div class="content">
    <?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
    <div class="contenttitle"><h2><?php the_date('m-d-y'); ?> | " rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2><?php edit_post_link('· edit'); ?></div>
    <div class="contentitem">
    <div class="contentitem1"><small class="contentitemcategory">Category: <?php the_category('&');?></small></div>
    <div class="contentitem2"><small class="contentitempostedby">Posted by: <?php the_author(); ?></small></div>
    <div class="contentitem3"><small class="contentitemcomments"><?php comments_popup_link(__('No Comments Yet'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?></small></div>
    </div>
    <div class="contentbody">
    <?php the_content(); ?>
    <?php comments_template(); // Get wp-comments.php template ?>
    </div>
    <?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
    <!--
    <?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
    -->
    <?php endforeach; else: ?>
    <?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

    Well I've managed to fix the footer and it no longer reports a missing closed Div tag on validation. BUT, it still won't tile the BG for some reason.

    What does the CSS for the BG look like?

    You know that grey is veeeeery hard to read on the grey background.

    #wrapper
    {
    width: 708px;
    margin: auto;
    background: url('images/01_mainbg.jpg') center repeat-y;
    }

    ...of course it's hard to read, it's not supposed to look like that ;)

    Took me a while to figure it out, but here's the skinny. Your wrapper div is collapsing. When the sidebar and container div blocks were floated left & right, the wraper div essentialy became empty and so it collapses. This renders the background useless. Unfortunately do not know what the solution is. But at least now you know what the problem is.
