There is no return button so they have to click they back button on their browser. * What I hope to do is show some text about the work and a link to be able to purchase. Also I would like to be able to specify the size of the image they are viewing. * I am going to be set up through my bank to make the purchase connection so that is already taken care of. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Adding Sidebar Textbox to Widget Page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-sidebar-textbox-to-widget-page/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-sidebar-textbox-to-widget-page/#post-6040984) * Samuel Elh, thanks for the tip! * The article I got the code from says nothing about including the “id”. But when I included it in the functions file, three sidebars show up on the widget page ready to be filled with content. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [PHP if statement not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-if-statement-not-working/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-if-statement-not-working/#post-5969794) * Mark, Stephen, thanks for the help. * The statement works but not quite the way I expected. * The blog sidebar shows up on all pages, not just the blog. After fooling with it for a day and a half I was just sitting staring at the code on the screen and listening to music (Nightwish, Wishmaster album) when I realized the blog sidebar is called from index.php and on the other pages it is called by page. php. DUH! * No wonder half of my hair ends up on the floor when I try code this. * Thanks again! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Sidebar space when no sidebar is present](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-space-when-no-sidebar-is-present/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-space-when-no-sidebar-is-present/#post-5818587) * After I posted I remembered a theme where PHP if statements were used to determine how pages were shaped. I was thinking that if the CSS is set to a wider page in style.css I can make an exception for the blog – since the only place I need to make space for the sidebar is on the blog page. The CSS file would include a note as to the existence and location of the exception. My only reservation is that the if statement would have to use an inline style. * ``` { inline CSS to shrink content div to 70% } ?> ``` * It will have to wait till tomorrow though, it’s late and I’m falling asleep at the keyboard. * ps Couldn’t live without Firebug!!!!! 😉 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Sidebar space when no sidebar is present](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-space-when-no-sidebar-is-present/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-space-when-no-sidebar-is-present/#post-5818580) * If I change the CSS don’t I need to be able to tell if the page is a blog post( where I want the sidebar to appear) or a static page containing artwork (where I don’t want the sidebar space to appear). * (And I have been using Firebug. How did people ever troubleshoot webpages before it came along?) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Cannot set featured image in WPFolio](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-set-featured-image-in-wpfolio/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-set-featured-image-in-wpfolio/#post-5739347) * Hello Calvin, * After playing around with the posts for a couple of days I have got an image to show up. It seems that a category must be set before the image shows up. * One of the problems I am having is that I am using a tutorial from an earlier version of WPFolio. Everything is the same but different so to speak. And all changes I have been making are being made to a child theme. * I was not aware that WPFolio is outdated. It was recommended by several artists as a good theme for an online gallery. * Also, I looked at your code from gist.github.com but as a relative newbie to WordPress and php, I had a hard time figuring out exactly what is going on. * Other than that things are going well. How’s things with you? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Trying to build header with clickable image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/trying-to-build-header-with-clickable-image/) * Thread Starter [jamCincinnati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamcincinnati/) * (@jamcincinnati) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/trying-to-build-header-with-clickable-image/#post-5733977) * Found a past post and added the link but the image does not appear. Plus including the ‘alt’ tag causes the text to appear in the header div instead of on a mouseover. * Here is the code I am using: * `Cincinnati Artist` * Test site: [http://www.mydesignbook.net/artist_site](http://www.mydesignbook.net/artist_site) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total)
