In Firefox this stylesheet is not importing,

@import url("http://solarallianceofamerica.com/css/general.css");

Try up five levels to the root/blog/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/:

@import url("../../../../../css/general.css");

Alternative:
copy the general.css to the child theme, it will be much more easier to adjust and edit from the child themes folder.

Remove:

@import url("http://solarallianceofamerica.com/css/general.css");

UNTESTED CODE:
In the child themes functions.php add:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'child_theme_setup' );

if ( !function_exists( 'child_theme_setup' ) ):
function child_theme_setup() {
	if ( !function_exists( 'enqueue_general_style' ) ):
		function enqueue_general_style() {
			wp_enqueue_style( 'general_style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/general.css', array(), null );
			do_action( 'enqueue_general_style', 'general_style' );
		}
		add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_general_style', 11 );
	endif;
}
endif;

Have a look in the twenty eleven /inc/theme-options.php

There is a function there ‘twentyeleven_get_default_theme_options()’

It is not pluggable, so create a function in the child theme, run an action after_setup_theme.

This is UNTESTED:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'child_get_default_theme_options' );
function child_get_default_theme_options() {
	$default_theme_options = array(
		'color_scheme' => 'orange',
		'link_color'   => twentyeleven_get_default_link_color( 'light' ),
		'theme_layout' => 'narrow-content-left-sidebar',
	);

	if ( is_rtl() )
 		$default_theme_options['theme_layout'] = 'sidebar-content';

	return apply_filters( 'twentyeleven_default_theme_options', $default_theme_options );
}

If you may want to use the menu later, through Admin > Appearance > Menu, you can just disable the munu unless the Primary “Template Location” location is set.

Create the child theme and copy header.php across to the child themes folder.

Find:

<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>

Add an empty ” callback_cb instead of the default which is ‘pages’

<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'fallback_cb' => '' ) ); ?>

I really should read the titles twice I missed the ‘wp_list_bookmarks’

As alchymyth said, except the first line is missing a not !
if not get the links the some text

<?php if( ! wp_list_bookmarks('category=whatever&echo=0') ) : ?>
   some text

Hi,
If you are returning the link or links in an array(‘url’,’title’) from a custom function ‘get_my_links’, in a template page:

<?php $links = get_my_links($category); ?>
<?php if($links) : ?>
	<?php foreach $links as $link : ?>
		<li><a href="<?php echo $link[0]"; title="<?php echo $link[1]; "><?php echo $link[1]; ?></a></li>
	<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php else: ?>
   'Sorry no links for this category!'
<?php endif; ?>

Alternative returned from a function in functions.php

function get_cat_links( $category ) {
   $links = get_my_links($category);
   if($links) {
     foreach $links as $link {
		echo '<li><a href="' .$link[0] .'" title="' .$link[1] .'">' .$link[1] .'></a></li>';
		}
	} else {
		echo 'Sorry no links for this category!';
	}
}

Called in the template:

<?php get_cat_links('the_category'); ?>

Just done a quick search and found this topic, it is 3 years old though:

At the end of the instructions it says “If you have problems with missing images that you’ve uploaded, you need to change the path to the images on every post directly on your SQL database.”

Hi,
I see you have it sorted.

What does the that code do?

What you was missing was the navigation, all we done was told WordPress we wanted the query results to be paged, using the WordPress global $paged.

'paged' => $paged

The other line just tells WordPress how many posts to show, the default (10) is set in settings, but we could over-write that and display more or less, if we have large posts we may only want two so the visitor does not have to scroll.

So we would add:

'posts_per_page' => 2,

Guessing it replaces the <?php query_posts(“cat=#”); ?> in the templete?

That is correct, all we have done is created an argument array and passed it to query_posts( $args ), it is a matter of choice, I just thing the array is easier to read, construct and understand, than a long text string.

As we can see it can get messy, although for this example below we should use wp_query();

<?php query_posts( 'cat=5&posts_per_page=10&paged=$paged&order=ASC&orderby=title' ); ?>

If your topic is resolved can you change the status of the topic please.
