In reply to: how to make a CSS drop-down menu without javascriptIssue resolved: I’d got my selectors wrong in the style sheet. It should have been:
#linkbar-wrapper .linkbar #menu-main-menu li ul {display:none; padding:0; margin:0;} #linkbar-wrapper .linkbar #menu-main-menu li:hover > ul {display:block; padding:0; margin:0;}Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Read More function with PagesThank you esmi! but i think i’ve just found the root of the problem- the wordpress on this server is an old version- the following code works on version 3.5.1 , but not on the server i was using, which is version 3.3.1 does that sounds like it could be the problem??
the code i’m using now:
<h2>Latest NEWS</h2> <br/> <?php wp_reset_query(); ?> <?php query_posts("post_type=post&posts_per_page=3");?> <?php if (have_posts()): while (have_posts()): the_post() ; ?> <h5><?php the_title();?></h5> <?php global $more; $more = 0; the_content("More..."); ?> <?php endwhile; endif; ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Read More function with PagesI’ve taken over the website and inherited it- i come from a html/css/jquery background and am new to wordpress. I’m afraid i can’t even point to to the site as it’s on a local server at present. I had just hoped i was making an obvious error that i had overlooked.
If you’ve got no other suggestions then i’ll think of something different.
Thank you for your help.

In reply to: Read More function with PagesThis is why i’m having difficulty- i’m new to PHP.
I posted that snippet because i thought it was the most relevant- it is the only part of function.php that refers to the ‘more’ function- i’m sure of this. Is there anywhere else other than functions.php i should check?

In reply to: Read More function with Pagesthanks for helping! I’m using my own custom theme. it says this concerning the content / more function in function.php
function short_content($post_id, $content, $char_length, $read_more_class, $read_more_text) { $count = strlen($content); if ($count >= $char_length) { $content = substr($content, 0, $char_length); $content.= '... <a class="'.$read_more_class.'" href="' . get_permalink($post_id) . '">'.$read_more_text.''; } echo $content; }[Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum’s parser.]
is this where it’s gone wrong?
