In reply to: [Expound] adding sub heads to nav barMy advice is limited to what I can see on your site. If you want a Menu Header called Meditations (which you have)with other content (Posts or Pages) below that then you need to use the Appearances/Menu feature to first create a new menu(create it in the upper right side and Save Changes), then add content (Pages/Posts/Categories)to the Menu. Drag and drop them to set the order (pull them to the side to be a sub category of the item above it and Save Changes) and then in the Upper left corner choose the Menu that you created to be the default menu.

In reply to: [Expound] slider featured posts not showing up in HomeCan I *only* use posts? Not pages or categories?
“Posts” only.
Simply put, the theme uses the sticky feature to display the content in the Home page. The are arranged by the date they were created, so you can use that to control which ones are displayed and the order in which they appear.
Try to keep to the same question in each thread so that it can be marked as Resolved and then start a new thread for each new question, so that the replies are focused on that issue.Forum: Themes and Templates

In reply to: [Expound] Changing featured post.You could try changing the date, so that the Post that you want featured is the most current one.
I too did not want Authors displayed so I went into simple-sitemap.php and removed the code that calls for Authors in both the Post and Page settings. This is being tested in a child theme on a beta site, but it seems to work just fine. Obviously there would be an issue with any updates to the plugin but it is a fix until the Plugin Author has a chance to sort out the issue. Great plugin by the way. I am looking at adding it to all of my sites.

In reply to: Functions File in a Child themeSo sorry. I should have mentioned that the code was entered exactly as posted and the file name is just functions.php and there is no need to change the name of the child_theme. So that is good.

In reply to: Functions File in a Child themeThanks esmi. I caught the reference to omitting the closing tag in one of your earlier posts. I found this forum link http://wordpress.org/support/topic/twentyten-child-functionphp-filter-header-image-height?replies=11 and finally something is working. I can modify the header size!
However there seems to be a conflict here again with coding rules and using the endif argument.
Is there something else that might be in play such as my htaccess?
Note: I use these themes in a WPMU setting for testing and it just seems to be an awkward beginning to getting anywhere with modified functions.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Different style for linksForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Different style for linksI am having something of the same problem?
I added external links to a DIV in the header.php. I can style the DIV as far as positioning it with with an addition to the style sheet, but the links are controlled by the style setting for links in posts and pages (I can see the text for that in the style sheet). I have looked everywhere in W3 and the theme forum but I cannot figure out how to effect a change in my DIV. Any thoughts?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Business Directory] Translation of Business DirectoryHave you tried adding one of the Translation plugins? I have used Transposh and found that it works and the support is very good.

In reply to: Shortcode used twice in a pageI am using WP Table Reloaded and My Contact Form. After a night of good sleep I am able to get the Contact form shortcode to execute inside of the table. Not sure why a but a fresh approach seems to help. Perhaps naps are to be mandated?
Thanks for your assisatnceForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Shortcode used twice in a pageWhat I want is to have [table=id?/][contact form] so that the left hand side of the page show a WP Table (of contacts) and the right side displays the contact form. Right now, only one of the shortcodes works (the first one) and the other doesn’t execute. Or the other way (which doesn’t seem to work, either) would be to put the short code inside one of the cells in the table.
