Your solution did not work. It broke the page below where the images were suppose to go. I also tried ``. However, you got me pointed in the right direction. I finally figured out( trial and error) that path needed a forward slash in front of everything for the root folder. Apparently, `` doesn’t return the forward slash. At any rate, the problems is solved, and you will notice that I am using code tags above. Again, thank you. It is great that you are willing to share your knowledge—and time. Your avatar makes me think of halloween. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Menus](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/menus-18/) * Thread Starter [Ichabod2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ichabod2/) * (@ichabod2) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/menus-18/#post-2889834) * Thank you ‘songdogtech.’ The Justin Tadlock article was very helpful. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Videos in WP](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/videos-in-wp/) * Thread Starter [Ichabod2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ichabod2/) * (@ichabod2) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/videos-in-wp/#post-2848440) * Thank you, so much, bdolin and Christine!

I am going to review “ creating custom page templates,” but I have been thru it several times. I think my last paragraph indicates my confusion—I am not even sure how to frame my questions. I am reading a book titled “Professional WordPress Design and Development by Stern, Damstra, and Williams. The first few chapters have contributed more to my understanding of WP than all of the Codex’s I have read. The codex is wonderful, but is does a poor job (in my opinion) of tying things together. The gurus behind WP should think about creating more articles that take a more “birds-eye,” or“ tree-top” view, of WP. This is absolutely NOT a criticism! I know how full their plates must be. In fact, I am astounded by what they have accomplished. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Static front page vs. Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-front-page-vs-posts/) * Thread Starter [Ichabod2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ichabod2/) * (@ichabod2) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-front-page-vs-posts/#post-2366790) * I’ll see how it goes. I figure you saved me several hours already, and a little repetition aids the learning process.

When I went back to the default permalink setting my post started showing on single.php. I will delve, again, into permalinks as you suggest. Thanks for being there. * PS: I have bookmarked your forum replies and threads, and I intend to go through them. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Background Image In Sidebar CSS problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/background-image-in-sidebar-css-problem/) * Thread Starter [Ichabod2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ichabod2/) * (@ichabod2) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/background-image-in-sidebar-css-problem/#post-2321734) * Great call, alchymyth! * I removed the space and viola! there was my gradient sidebar.
