It would probably be better to do it by moving the search box HTML, but it’s easier to just add some CSS! * Try adding this to your style.css: * ``` #header > div > form#searchform {  position: absolute;  right: 0;  top: 100px; } ``` * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Hatch] Mainmenu marks submenu choice](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mainmenu-marks-submenu-choice/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mainmenu-marks-submenu-choice/#post-3556165) * Hi, * 1) Assuming you have created a child theme, you need to add the following to your child themes style.css: `.current-menu-parent a { color: #990000; }` * 2) I’m not 100% sure exactly where you want it, could you post a screenshot showing me? Also, it looks quite good with the search where it is at the moment! * CodeBotics * Edit: your theme’s active colour is #990000, not #990 * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Query two custom posts and two custom taxonomies](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-two-custom-posts-and-two-custom-taxonomies/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/query-two-custom-posts-and-two-custom-taxonomies/#post-3390465) * > Important Note: tax_query takes an array of tax query arguments arrays (it > takes an array of arrays) – you can see this in the second example below. * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Taxonomy_Parameters](http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Taxonomy_Parameters) * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [jquery-1.6.3.min.js was not found](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-163minjs-was-not-found/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-163minjs-was-not-found/#post-3388742) * Are you sure you haven’t been hacked? jquerye.com is not a jQuery repository. In fact, when I try to go there it shows my localhost. I don’t have a clue why, but I don’t think that’s good news! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Perplexing padding problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perplexing-padding-problem/) * Thread Starter [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perplexing-padding-problem/#post-3390437) * Forgot to mark as resolved! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Perplexing padding problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perplexing-padding-problem/) * Thread Starter [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perplexing-padding-problem/#post-3390436) * Problem turned out to be caused by

The chances are your first theme won’t be great, but you can learn a lot from what went wrong the first time and so on. To make sure you’re doing everything properly, I think it’s worth installing plugins such as theme-check and turning WP_Debug on from the very beginning. * I’ve made quite a few themes now, and have just started working on building my own framework that I will know inside out. This will mean I can expedite the whole theme creation process somewhat, without having to rely on someone else’s code. In other words, I will have the best of both worlds! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Can Header.php be used elsewhere on a site?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/#post-3242362) * This code: `$currentdir = dirname('content/wp-content/themes');` will just return‘ content/wp-content’ as far as I know. Note the single quotation marks I’ve added. * Could you explain your folder structure to me? The way I understand it is this: root directory -> content -> wp-content -> themes -> twentytwelve * In which case, did you try using the code I posted earlier without changing anything? * ``` ``` * CB * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Can Header.php be used elsewhere on a site?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/#post-3242356) * This works for getting header.php from another theme on the same site: * ``` ``` * To get it from a different site, assuming the files for the site at URL [http://www.blog.com/content](http://www.blog.com/content) are in a directory called _content_ you’d need to use something like: * ``` ``` * I haven’t tested the second one, but the first one definitely works! * CB * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Can Header.php be used elsewhere on a site?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/can-headerphp-be-used-elsewhere-on-a-site/#post-3242353) * I think for what you’re trying to do, you’ll need include(‘path/to/header.php’). * Fore example: * ``` ``` * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [install new thems](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/install-new-thems/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/install-new-thems/#post-3166040) * It’s much easier to install it as a Zip, can you not compress the folder into a zip on your computer? * Forum: [Your WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/your-wordpress/) In reply to: [My first client website](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-first-client-website-how-much-to-charge/) * [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-first-client-website-how-much-to-charge/#post-3141067) * An embedded Google Map centred on the businesses address would look great on the right hand side of the contact page, other than that I think it’s very good and professional! * Forum: [Your WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/your-wordpress/) In reply to: [Review my Site/Theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/review-my-sitetheme/) * Thread Starter [CodeBotics](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codebotics/) * (@codebotics) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/review-my-sitetheme/page/2/#post-3134502) * Fixed that issue now, thank you.

And yep, new theme. * Do you think it’s worth trying to fix the IE7 issue? Surely a line has to be draw somewhere with IE, but where? * Thanks for pointing that out, there’s a little scrolling in Chrome as well, but nowhere near as much as in FF. I’ll look into fixing that shortly. * The PHP files are licensed under GPL, as required. Everything else will be licensed under a single use license. * Thanks for your comments.
