  • I think you’d be much better served by setting off creating your own blog and coming back here asking specific questions about functionality or layout.

    Or you could ask the designer of the site, who is linked in the footer of the page.

    At first glance it doesn’t look like anything that couldn’t be emulated with a similar theme and some tweaks.

    Info on the_excerpt().

    Or, you could use the more tag and just not put any images above it.

    Or, you could use CSS’s display: none to hide images on the homepage. You’d have to add a CSS class or id to the post content in index.php and then reference img in that class/id. Not sure if you could use inline CSS to do that.

    Esmi gave you the best option. Use Firefox and one of the addons that allows you to edit CSS in real-time.

    If you need additional help, post a link to your website and another explanation of the problem and either myself or someone here can track down your rogue CSS.

    How about this. In comments.php:

    <?php if (!in_category(23, $post->ID)) { ?>
    
    //All of your comments code goes in here
    
    } ?>

    Obviously you’d change 23 to the cat ID of your choice. I don’t think you’d need the $wp_query portion, either.

    P.S. – Tested this and it shut the comments off in cat 23 for me.

    Out-of-the-box WordPress functionality allows some HTML in comments.

    So I would guess this is a theme or plugin problem. As Ryans149 mentions, you should disable all plugins and switch to the default theme to see if the problem persists. If it doesn’t, you’ve narrowed down the possible problems, and can move on from there.

    As some additional code examples, I created a guide for creating WordPress author pages after I figured it out for my own site.

    Hope it helps.

    In reply to: Hyperlink to a post

    I’m not quite sure what you’re asking…are you asking how to create a link in a new post to another one of your posts?

    Navigate to the post you want to link to in your browser. Copy the link from the address bar. In your new post, use the visual editor’s link button and paste the address in the appropriate box. (Or you can use HTML in the HTML editor.)

    Open up style.css in your theme folder and find this code:

    .horizmenu ul{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    }

    …change it to this:

    .horizmenu ul{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    z-index: 10;
    }

    See if that works.

    You can try the Insights plugin.

    Keep in mind there’s some CSS that goes with it. Or you’ll have to create your own. 🙂

    What’s the name of the “main folder” you’ve put the file in?

    If you view source on your comment page, you’ll see this code:

    #page { background: url("http://www.mpalmerdesign.com/blog2/wp-content/themes/theme01/images/mpalmerdesigntitlebanner.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }

    That appears to be repeating the image along the y-axis. The code also shows up on the main blog page, but for some reason on that page something is overriding the repeat.

    You need to track down where this is coming from. It’s probably either hard-coded in your header.php file or it’s being inserted into head by a plugin or something else.

    hey I’m trying to fix this on our site too- monetize * media dot com/blog. please advise on what to do…

    i tried going to this sociable.css but wasn’t sure how to get there… any other ways? i think the theme I’m using is Inove

    Using your FTP program, your WordPress file editor (if using WP2.8), or your server’s filesystem (e.g. cPanel, etc.), navigate to /wp-content/plugins/sociable/sociable.css and open or download this file for editing.

    Change this code:

    .sociable ul li {
    	background: none;
    	display: inline !important;
    	list-style-type: none;
    	margin: 0;
    	padding: 1px;
    }

    to this:

    .sociable ul li {
    	background: none;
    	display: inline !important;
    	list-style-type: none;
    	margin: 0 !important;
    	padding: 1px !important;
    }

    The sociable code is automatically inserted after the content of your post. So it will be within whatever divs hold your post content.

    Post a link to your site for further assistance.

    It’s not a plugin. It’s just a bit of coding to build the two links, and a Google custom search bar on the right. The applicable source code is here, although keep in mind this is not something you can simply cut and paste:

    <div class="index" id="top_index">
    
    		<div class="index_center">
    
    			<ul class="header_links float_left">
    
    				<li><a href="/xml/" title="Subscribe to Gizmag's RSS feed"><img src="/images/rss_icon_glass.png" alt="RSS logo">Subscribe to Gizmag's RSS feed</a></li>
    				<li><a href="http://www.twitter.com/gizmag/" title="Follow Gizmag on Twitter"><img src="/images/twitter-icon.png" alt="Twitter bird">Follow Gizmag on Twitter</a></li>
    
    			</ul>
    
    			<div id="gsearch" style="float: right">
