    Thanks for those tutorial links. I’m making a theme also and was wondering how to incorporate these. As the end result is generally fora user with no coding exp.

    No it was the ul that was the recent comments that caused the issue. It was an oversight by the theme maker. I simply styled it as they (the theme maker) gave the recent comment ul list a class, but never a css attribute to go along with it. I simple added it. ul.recent-comments{width:xxx.px;}, and got her to fix the link to the stylesheet. Which was amatuer.

    Yes it was the recent comments, but it wasn’t the plugin code.

    As she said, they wanted $100 extra to make it work in every browser, so obviously they were lazy in their code.

    Really wish IE could be fixed.

    @alchymyth The one used in the site was added by the theme developer who custom made the theme so it’s not easy accessible.

    The plugin will in fact give the post title, and it’s contents if you need to. I downloaded the plugin to look at the code to see how to modify it. Luckily however they have already provided this feature in the plugin’s options. I included the screenshot that was included in the plugin folder.

    Install the plugin
    And insert this code in your theme where you want it to appear. Like home.php for example, just would need a little coding. (Like is it a seperate div? Or style the

      alchymyth, I’d be happy to help you if you have no coding experience my email is above.

    Your very welcome.

    Internet Explorer always had an issue with the @import function. IE7 use to ignore that method of “calling” up the stylesheet. Now with IE8 it’s suppose to be better. But obviously not.

    Glad I could save you $100 also, which was a bad coding practice on their part to begin with. Need any more help feel free to post here at wordpress again, or drop me an email.

    Do you have a home.php by any chance? And could you post the code if you do.

    Don’t forget to wrap the code you post in the `, by Clicking on the “Code Button, Pasting, Then clicking the code button again.

    I’m stumped! It should be working cause the css says so, but IE isn’t following it. The fix may be my above post with changing your header.php file to what I said. As IE has an issues with the @import function. Not so much with IE8, but then again Microsoft failed with the web browser department. But we’ll see.

    This has always been bugging me and might exmplain why things magically work.

    Open up header.php

    Find:

    <style type="text/css" media="screen">
    	@import url( http://yeahshesaidit.com/wp-content/themes/yeahshesaidit/style.css );
    </style>

    Replace with:
    <link href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

    Everything looks like it should work.. I’m lost without really getting into you files.
    *fingers crossed*

    Okay let see how your front page is made.

    Go to your Dashboard and click on the Setting menu bar (on the left, and click Reading)
    It should look like this
    In the front page displays, Do you ahve anything selected? If so I’m assuming it’s home.

    Now navigate to your pages menu by cliking the “Pages” menu bar on the left side of the dashboard. Click to edit the “home” page.

    On the right hand side is there a “template” selected for that page? If so what is it called, and paste it’s contents here.
    Page Templates

    surround the code you paste with the symbolat each end. So it will look like this <blockquote><?php your code ?>`</blockquote>.

    I’ll have a look in the morning, It’s 2am here. IE just isn’t doing what it told or the other browsers are being smart and picking up on the coders mistakes.

    Cause when I download the age in Firefox. The code looks right. Like this. <div id="content"></div>

    Where as when I download it in IE it look like this `<div id=content></div>

    The “” are very needed to web browsers, and I want to amke sure the coders did it correctly. I’m sure they did.. but then again they want to charge you $100 that should have been tested in the first place.

    Your now missing an <li> class. On your subscribe <div>

    ther should be a <li class=”right”> in there.

    Did you change anyhting inside of the index, page, single, front-page.php files?

    What should be this… which looks good in IE.

    The part that missing is this. `<li class=”right”>
    <div class=”hrc”>
    <h2>Subscribe</h2>`

    I ahve to go tend to my kid now, but I’ll check back later. You won’t ahve to pay them $100, we’ll figure this out.

    When I fix it in dreamweaver and try to view it, it all lines up and the Bradly post looks like it should.

    As you can see HERE!

    yes it will with this little code that I changed.

    /******************************
    *        CUSTOM TWEAKS        *
    ******************************/
    
    ul.recent-comment {width:360px;}

    🙂

    …oooooo

    $100 USD. Thats like $300 Canadian /lol/

    Lets try this, if not reply back and we’ll talk about template files.
    —————————————————-

    Open style.css

    Select all text, and replace with the following.

    [CSS moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please use the pastebin]

    Is your main page working off a template file by any chance? If so I could easily fix this.

    There’s an issue with the css once things gets bigger, like a title that too long, or an image that to big for that area. It’s a theme issue. You said you ahd the theme made? It may have worked in IE when they sold it to you caise they didn’t forsee a long title.

    It will take a little bit more coding which isn’t hard but for you it may be overwhelming (at first).

    Ask the person who made your theme to adjust the theme to work with IE. If they demand $ email me and I’ll help you out.

    It’s actually in the Recent Comments/Subscribe area that’s a little goofy. It might happen again. If it does drop me an email and I’ll be happy to help again. Sorry it took 2 days, got a new baby to deal with during the day.

    My email is Anderson.Duffett@gmail.com, or on Facebook.

    Glad you got it working.
