Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Button editionI don’t quite follow what you are looking for. If you don’t want the border/frame around the images, that is probably just css you have to change. If you have a link to the working example we can help.
hmm… I know I’ve run past this before. I think category excerpts are just generated off a chunk of your main article text, but when summary is checked is uses only what is found in the excerpt box? Try throwing something in that box and see what happens. 🙂

In reply to: Changing color to background/header…not sure which one it isGood to hear. If you want further help in the future, it might be a good idea to start with a non-commercial theme, as the support on these forum are excellent (not sure how the commercial forums are). Your site looks simple enough that it could be easily replicated with a free theme – or custom made if you’re really outgoing. haha.

In reply to: Header TitleMan, I don’t remember so many people using commercial themes last time I was on the forum!

In reply to: Disabling part of a menu drop down*you would still want to no-index those other pages, or password protect them as google would pick them up and it would be as good of a solution as my css. lol.

In reply to: Disabling part of a menu drop down@andrew, yes. It is a very crude solution. haha. You could also no-index those pages and it would stop google caching.
It would be easy enough like esmi mentioned at the top just define a new menu if users are logged in, and to then include those pages.

In reply to: Changing color to background/header…not sure which one it is@esmi, nope, not at all. I won’t help next time.

In reply to: Disabling part of a menu drop downI just had an idea… while not the most secure solution, it might work in some cases. You can define css classes in the menu, so if you were to give the menu the class of “admin”, then in the stylesheet have admin to display:none.
However, when users are logged in, if you take a look at the body tag, it should have new css saying logged-in user (or something in that regard) on all the pages. In your css simply build a compound selector of
.logged-in .admin {display: block}to display that menu item again.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Changing color to background/header…not sure which one it isFrom what I see, the background is not actually defined from the CSS. Whoever coded that wasn’t very forward thinking, as it’s actually an image being called in the body to repeat vertically. You’ll notice if you stretch the site (across 2 27″ monitors) the background ends because the image isn’t wide enough. lol. That is uploads/2013/02/background.jpg

In reply to: [Theme: Twenty Eleven] Menu spacing problemI always thought this forum was for css issues. The question isn’t really that in depth. But anyways… taking a look now, it appears that you’ve fixed your problem. Keep in mind that building a proper responsive website takes a lot of additional time and knowledge. Your best bet is to start by building a really solid fixed-width design.

In reply to: [Pink Touch 2] Removing Comments from pageThe theme will probably have a comments.php file. If you just rename it
_comments.phpthat should stop any calls to the file. 9/10 comments are referred through it and not coded within template files.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: How to make each category have its own a:hover?In what context is this photo being used? Is it like in navigation or something with all the categories listed? Because I’m sure the menu has css classes appended to it automatically.
umm… or you might be able to use javascript to change the background class based on what it’s hovering over. Might be able to help a little more if I understood exactly how this bg image is being displayed.

In reply to: Theme structureYou have a few options. You could just simply have everything under posts, and use categories. You can then filter all the posts to only display for certain categories in the Admin. OR you might want to separate into custom post types, with custom taxonomy? Might just come down to preference and skill using custom post types. Help at all?
