Were you able to find the problem? It looks like I’m seeing relevant results now, as shown in this [new article about Chianti](https://gobackpacking.com/chianti-wine-tour-tuscany/), but would appreciate hearing from you too. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Advertising code on home page vs rest of blog](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/advertising-code-on-home-page-vs-rest-of-blog/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/advertising-code-on-home-page-vs-rest-of-blog/#post-1844980) * Excellent — turns out the “front page” tag was key. I’d received initial advice with “home” instead and that wasn’t doing the trick.

They also had me try resetting my permalinks, and deleting my .htaccess file, but neither approach fixed it. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How do I integrate static home page with blog?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-integrate-static-home-page-with-blog/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-integrate-static-home-page-with-blog/#post-1179324) * I’ve been browsing new magazine/newspaper style themes, which is the direction I’m headed, and I think the solution presented so far, while simple, wouldn’t work easily with what I really want to do. (please correct me if I’m wrong) * I want my homepage, [http://www.gobackpacking.com](http://www.gobackpacking.com) to act as a table of contents for the blog. In this way, visitors can fully navigate the menu options which link to the various pages of my blog. * Am I still making this more difficult than it needs to be? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Getting Admin’s Name to Show As Post Author](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-admins-name-to-show-as-post-author/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-admins-name-to-show-as-post-author/#post-1158233) * That was silly, but it worked.

Only now, I’m having second thoughts about whether my current theme is ideal for that arrangement. At least I know what to do when the time comes. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Plugin: Yoast Breadcrumbs] Remove from homepage?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-yoast-breadcrumbs-remove-from-homepage/) * [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-yoast-breadcrumbs-remove-from-homepage/#post-999859) * I would like to know the answer to this too. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Plugin – Stealth Login – Locked out of my blog](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-stealth-login-locked-out-of-my-blog/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-stealth-login-locked-out-of-my-blog/#post-1042082) * Bump – please help – I have no idea how to resolve my access issue and I do not want to make things worse by playing around with the WordPress files. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Plugin – Stealth Login – Locked out of my blog](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-stealth-login-locked-out-of-my-blog/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-stealth-login-locked-out-of-my-blog/#post-1042023) * CORRECTION – I had set the login page through the plugin to be [http://www.gobackpacking.com/Blog/login](http://www.gobackpacking.com/Blog/login) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Oldest posts appearing first](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oldest-posts-appearing-first/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [19 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oldest-posts-appearing-first/#post-590357) * Thanks for checking.

Either that, or when I moved a “recent posts” widget higher in the sidebar, it shook things back to their newest-to-oldest natural order. * *resolved* * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Plugin to Count Total Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-to-count-total-posts/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [19 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-to-count-total-posts/#post-551354) * Oh duh, I only see the # of posts and comments every day! * Thanks for drawing my attention to that stat. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [IFrame increased my page width](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/iframe-increased-my-page-width/) * Thread Starter [Dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave925/) * (@dave925) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/iframe-increased-my-page-width/#post-513210) * I fixed it! If anyone uses Text Link Ads, then the fix to the problem I wrote about above is to adjust the width in the style tag of the code you get from TLA. I dropped it from 100% to 65% and the problem was solved. * echo “\n
