It is because of the header div height. You could add

#top {
height: 165px;
}

to your stylesheet and the whole image will be clickable, but it will also push your main content down by about 50px. Your theme wasn’t built with having a large header in mind.

If you need it to be clickable and conserve the styling, I recommend you consult a developer to change it for you.

PS the nav still looks buggered in IE7.

Custom Post Types ftw 🙂

In my opinion, this gives you more control and delineates the need to assign a custom field each time you post. I know it only takes 2 seconds, but this is just the kind of control that Custom Post Types offer. JMHO.

Okay, the position: relative does not need to be on the UL.

See if this works:

ul#front_menu {
float:left;
position:absolute;
text-transform:uppercase;
top:68px;

And add
position: relative;
to your #header div after the height on 38 of your stylesheet.

Maybe this plugin would work for you?

From what I understand, it essentially modifies the
$response = wp_remote_get($url, array(’timeout’ => 30)); line in includes/file.php to a higher number.

Good luck!

In your style.css line 57, try changing

ul#front_menu {
float:left;
position:relative;
text-transform:uppercase;
top:-4px;
}

to

ul#front_menu {
float:left;
position:relative;
text-transform:uppercase;
top:-5px;
}

If you have disabled comments on all posts, open single.php and remove
<?php comments_template(); ?> from the template file.

There is a great tut here: http://www.lancelhoff.com/remove-comments-are-closed-text-from-posts/

In your stylesheet.

You may want to find someone experienced with CSS and themeing to help you out, as it is easy to royally mess things up when you are in the code and you don’t know what you are looking at 🙂
