Can’t link catagories
-
I was able to change the graphics on the sliding door page links at the top but can’t get them to like to the catagies I’ve defined. For some reason a couple of them link to where I want them to go but the rest don’t. Most of them link to a page that it won’t let me edit. The message on the page says “Nothing to see here”.
Does anyone using sliding door know how I can get them to link to the pages I have catagorized?? you can see what I mean by looking at the blog I’m trying to setup:

Hello.
I am using the same template and have had the same problem. You mentioned being able to change the pictures in the top column- how did you go about doing that?
Thanks,
PhilIf you check out the support forum this question is answered.
Basically, by default the images point to 6 different categories. If you don’t have 6 categories, or if the categories are empty, then you get that message.You can change the URL to point straight to a post, see the support forum for how to do that. The forum is at mac-host.com/support
i do not have the same problem that dstewart015 mentioned, but i noted on their site that they are having the same problem i am… my windows aren’t sliding! the reason i was excited to try the theme was because of this effect, but no dice. they’re just static. i doublechecked to make sure that i had all of the right subdirectories, etc… but even before i tweaked anything the default images didn’t work
anyone have any experience with it?
thanks
Hi, I’ve suffered from the same problem as Member-dstewart015.
In my case, I’ve logged in My Admin Page【Dashboard】, defined 7 categories
and 20 sub-categories【5 sub-categories by one parent categories】.
Then, back to Dashboard, categories I defined aren’t appeared and My Blog
has no categories.
What’s happened!?
Must I ajust “style.css” on “/wp-content/themes/sliding-door/”!?
Help me and give any advice, if you may.
Thanks!!hello, this theme is awesome. the last thing i am trying to do is change the top text to an image (png or jpg). the header.php file says to get the blog_info title. i want to leave that blank and just put a logo of picture of my website name on top of the sliding images…. any help would be great. thanks.
Here is the fix for linking the category images:
You’ll need to edit the file “header.php”. Open the file in a html editor or in notepad and you’ll need to find and replace the following lines of code, its baout 30 lines down from the top:
-
<li class=”bk1″>/?cat=9″>Category 1
<li class=”bk2″>/?cat=31″>Category 2
<li class=”bk3″>/?cat=3″>Category 3
<li class=”bk4″>/?cat=11″>Category 4
<li class=”bk5″>/?cat=5″>Category 5
<li class=”bk6″>/?cat=6″>Category 6
<li class=”bk7″>/?cat=7″>Category 7You’ll need to replace the ‘/?cat=X’ with the category number that you want to link to as you can see I have linked to cats 9,31,3,11,5,6,7.
Edit, Save, Upload, Enjoy.

you think it should work linking those sliding doors with Pages instead?
I know that if I will try i will find out 🙂
But I am too afraid I am break something
Thank youYes it does work linking the URL’s to other pages.
I decided, to use this on my coffee desk theme. I integrated over the CSS info, and placed most of the header information into my coffee desk theme header. I then adjusted the categories in the header area, ( to my pages and my categories )
My problem is, even after I seemed to have fulfilled the task, It still is linking to the original 7 categories no matter what I do.
I have noticed, If i switched to the theme this comes in, It does work.
I am wondering, If I could be missing any css file or do I have to go into something I am unaware of? Any help Please??

I had been using the IE browser primarily until I recently installed Firefox. I now have Firefox as my primary browser but I still use IE too (mostly to see if things view differently between the two). But now for some reason the sidebar does not show up when I open my website in IE even though it shows up fine in Firefox. Any suggestions???? My website is: http://www.charlottelifegroup.com
