  • Thought I looked in the source to check if that was the problem; but I must have been sleepy – oops 🙂

    Glad you fixed it!

    Thank you!
    I hope they are considered, and I’d love to hear if I can help with anything…

    I sometimes end up using google search with the clause “site:wordpress.org” appended at the end (for both support and plugin search); but yes, this does not solve the lack of advanced search features at the forums, and is something that I find myself asking for too, apart from other things.

    I’d love to contribute back to the documentation, but I also feel under-prepared. But I am hoping to get there soon.

    Good points, I’m inclined to agree with them.

    Look at the directory:

    http://discoverboo.com/wp-content/themes/elegant-grunge/images/

    Some of those files have their extensions messed up, for example:

    frame-top-right-small.jpg0000644
    header-double-sidebar.jpg0000644

    etc.

    This could be a likely source of your problem.

    Get rid of the 0000644 (looks like an *nix permission string, not sure how it got there) at the end of these filenames and see if that helps?

    Good luck!

    You’re most welcome.
    I’m not sure I understand your new question, do you think you can explain again? :S Sorry!

    And you may want to mark this thread [resolved], if you opened it as a support question. Cheers!

    Emma,

    You’re most welcome. Good luck with resolving the links issue, and your website in general.

    Richard,

    Awesome – and you’re most welcome, I’m glad it works 🙂
    (I should have noted that you wouldn’t need the ul tags…)

    You may want to mark this thread as “Resolved” if you opened this as a request for support.

    Richard,

    This plugin comes tantalizingly close 🙂 But, it’ll display the sub-pages of only the current page, from what I gather.

    What happens if you try this:

    <?php
      $children = wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of='.**PAGEID**.'&echo=0');
      if ($children) { ?>
      <ul>
      <?php echo $children; ?>
      </ul>
      <?php } ?>

    in your template file? Make sure you replace **PAGEID** with the ID for the events page.

    Could you test it and pingback?

    (And you could call me Avani!)

    Hi Richard,

    Do you mean that you want to list all the sub-pages of the Events page on your blog’s “homepage” (by which I assume you mean the index page)?

    If your site is somewhere online, a link should also be handy.

    …there appears a need to put the theme into a folder with the name public_html

    Erm, there should be no such need.

    Navigate to public_html and look for a folder called wp-content. Inside that folder, there’s a folder called themes. That is where the folder for the new theme needs to go.

    This should work, considering it looks like wordpress is installed in your webroot. However, if not, go by what has already been pointed out:

    Navigate around your files and directories until you find a dir that has ALL those other directories.

    Hmm, I don’t see a folder called magazine-anything in the listing here (that’s the themes folder on your website).

    Also you seem to be using a non-default theme (Fusion) successfully, so it can’t be that the themes mechanism is not functional.

    Try uploading the theme in this folder more carefully, make sure it’s there in this directory in the first place?

    @richardp I trust you are not expecting your site to transform automatically. You need to check under the “Appearance” section in the admin area, and select the new theme (assuming you’ve unzipped and uploaded it correctly) that appears on the dashboard.

    If it is missing from your admin area, then indeed – we’ll need more concrete information, like whooami is pointing out.

    I think that has something to do with where the file is being called from – the theme index file, for instance, is called by the index file (or some file) in the wp root, so if the links have to be relative, they should be relative from the wp root, because from the servers’ point of view, the “current directory” is still the directory in which the file that it is reading is residing, which is clearly not the themes’ index file (considering you visit a blog at myblog.com/, and not myblog.com/wp-themes/mytheme/)…

    I could be mistaken, of course. 😐

    And by the way, you could call me Avani 🙂

    Sure, good luck 🙂

    Ok, it’s a little more work than I thought.

    Try the following steps now:

    Get the file style.css and the new header image. Backup the style.css and header_footer.jpg files on your server. Assuming* you have not changed style.css at all from the template, replace it with the file that you have downloaded. Go into the img/ directory inside your theme and replace the header_footer.jpg file with the one that you have downloaded.

    This should fix it, as far as I can see… I look forward to seeing the results on your server.

    *If you have tweaked the style.css file, let me know, and I’ll describe the changes you need to make, they are quite simple.
