In reply to: Pagination, PageBreaks, <!–nextpage–> ….The theme in question does not “support” the <!–nextpage–> tag. You will need to add to the single.php template file, at the least, the function
wp_link_pages(). This is generally added immediately after the function call forthe_content().Here is some reading material on the function:

In reply to: I want to ad a sidebar to the bottom of my blogIf you are just looking to add a widget area to the footer of your blog you might consider my plugin BNS Add Widget.
Your other option is to edit your theme files, most likely your footer.php file to add the code to create a widget area.

In reply to: How To Get a Post Author’s ID (In Single Post View)?This seems to be more than meets the eye … once you have the “post author’s name or ID” what will you be doing with it?
For example, if this is style related, the body_class() function provides a class unique for each author.

In reply to: Find Oldest Published PostThanks, I was just wondering if there may be another function, or variation, to find the oldest post. The code above was the most concise I could think of.

In reply to: Navigation OrderThe default code for wp_page_menu() would be simply:
<?php wp_page_menu(); ?>… you would not normally need the ‘$args’ unless your theme is using it.
Did you set the page orders to what I suggested, or something similar?
Otherwise this may be theme specific or even plugin related to sort out this issue. A link to your blog may be helpful … you might also find my plugin BNS Support to be useful for creating a listing of your blog and active plugins.

In reply to: Changing css based on page?The
body_class()function may be very useful for what you are trying to accomplish. Here is a post that explains some of its many uses: http://www.nathanrice.net/blog/wordpress-2-8-and-the-body_class-function/Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: HELP ………….If you look at (or near) line 142 in your style.css file you will find the element controlling the ‘header link’, change it to this:
#header_link { display:none; float:left; width:300px; }… the
display:none;will “hide” the link.As far as the “swing board” is concerned, that is part of the main header background graphic, if you wish to remove it you will have to edit that graphic (bgr_header.png). You will then need to make another CSS edit at (or near) line 65:
#main_search { display:none; float:right; }… use
display:none;to hide the search text like above.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Navigation OrderThe default parameter for sorting
wp_page_menuis Page Order, see this codex article: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_page_menuIf you set the page order of each of your pages you can control the order they are displayed.
As a suggestion, set your page orders to:
(page -> order)
* The Site -> 100
* About Liz -> 200
* Notebook -> 300
o Poetry -> 310
o Reviews -> 320
o Other -> 340
o Stories -> 330These values can be set using the “Quick Edit” link under each title on the “Edit Pages” window.
