Hey MJdudie,

Exactly what mechanism are you using to “share the link” to FB? Can you post a link to your WordPress site so we can get a better feel for what you’re doing?

Thanks!

Cheers! :)

Roger that. Definitely consider creating a child theme this next go around. Makes the changes you make very easy to back out from.

No problem at all drew. I just wanted to make sure if you needed some assistance that we were able to try and deliver it to ya.

Have a great day!

Cheers! :)

Heya sunilkumarp,

When you say “put code in header” where exactly are you trying to display this “custom title”? Is it just in the <title> tag?

If so, the code you have there needs to run in the loop, I think, in order to return something that displays, and I’m guessing you don’t have a special loop running in your theme’s header.

Have you checked out Codex for WP_Title info? Might be something there to help.

Cheers! :)

Heya xc1729,

Any chance of seeing the sidebar-challenged website live? If you could post a link that would be great!

You mentioned something might have gone wrong in the code. Did you add or make any changes to the style.css? Specifically, is:

#wps-sidebar {display: none;}

in there anywhere?

Cheers! :)

P.S. I see there’s not much activity in their forum where you posted this challenge over there. Hate when that happens! 🙂

Heya skyegospel,

Looks like that was a Premium theme? (Pricey, yikes!)

I’m thinking its going to be tough to troubleshoot your challenges since I can’t download and install it to see what’s happening behind the scenes. Not the same to just look at your source code. :*(

I’ve looked their the theme company’s website, specifically at their demo site for the Church lady theme. Oops, sorry 😉 the Church Theme 🙂

As well as looking through your site. This is just a slightly educated guess on my part, but I think the theme doesn’t provide for “posts” (not “pages”) to be displayed on a 2 column page.

Now you “could” get into your theme templates and hack something together but unless you are VERY comfy doing that I might advise steering clear.

For nearly $60 I would think you should certainly be getting support from the theme creator 🙁

I know this doesn’t help much, however, I think it will be hard for us to solve this problem. Of course I could be wrong. I often am 😐

Cheers! :)

Hey again, deidrawilson!

I hear what you’re asking here, but my question is how are you going to “server” those blog posts to the site visitor?

You say you don’t/can’t use subdomains, but is there any reason to not use WPMS but instead of new site installations being subdomains they would be in sub-directories?

Sort of like this:

You don’t/can’t use: http://custom-blog-name-here.domain.com/

But could you use: http://www.domain.com/custom-blog-name-here/ ??

Wait, that’s what you said you wanted to do, right?? 😉

Cheers! :)

Heya deidrawilson,

Have you looked at Digg Digg?

On first glance it might still appear to be one of those overly complicated plugins, and it is 🙁

However, it is also highly customizable. If you click into the Manual Placement admin menu option, you will see the code required to insert only the social media links you want and either in regular or compact modes.

Not sure how willing you are to get into your template pages and add script code, but this one for a Text Only Facebook Share Link looks really good (I may add it to some of my sites!)

And here’s some code for creating a text link for retweeting.

Hope that helps!

Cheers! :)
