In reply to: Problems with the TaglineWhatever the problem, it’s a good idea to think about creating a Child Theme to start from. This way, your changes don’t affect the original theme files, and your edits aren’t lost when you have to update the original. Much safer!

In reply to: Website ReviewHA, just noticed this thread is four months old. I guess he’s not too concerned about the forms. Or the site.

In reply to: Website ReviewCongrats, golfer300. Good luck with your new site!
If you’d like to fix the overflowing form inputs on the right sidebar, you could just throw a max-width percentage into the css for the
inputtag. Like so:input[type="text"] { max-width: 80%; padding: 3px; }Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: problem with sub-menu#access ul ul { box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); display: none; float: left; left: 0; position: absolute; top: 38px; width: 180px; z-index: 99999; }Currently, the
topvalue you see above is 38px. If you make it 34px instead, it will close that gap so there’s no dropout.Forum: Fixing WordPress

Something like this, maybe?

In reply to: centering blog contentHey galavanting, if you’re going to make changes to theme code, you might find it much safer to create a Child Theme and work from there. That way, when the parent theme is updated, you don’t lose all your changes!
Looking at your code, though, I think you’re missing a closing

In reply to: Cant Make Modifications to any blog or pageCould you explain with more detail what is happening?
a) are you able to log in and reach the dashboard admin area?
b) are you able to look at the list of all pages or posts?
c) what happens when you select a page or post to edit?If it really is plugin-related, I suggest deactivating all your plugins to see if the problem persists. If that solves it, reactivate them one at a time until you figure out which plugin is the culprit, and get rid of it!
If, for some reason, you can’t get to the plugins area to deactivate them in the admin dashboard menu, you can always do it through your ftp server by accessing the actual files in ‘wp-content.’
1. Go to your files on your ftp server, find the ‘plugins’ folder.
2. Deactivate all your plugins by renaming the folder ‘plugins-hold’ and then trying to log back in to your WordPress admin area.
3. If you are able to log back in properly, you can reactivate the plugins one at a time to see if the problem comes back.Let us know how it goes!

In reply to: I am logged in and get a blank screenIs anything new, or have you changed anything (updated WP, installed a new plugin, changed themes) recently?
Have you tried troubleshooting your plugins to see if one of them is causing this conflict?
1. Go to your files on your ftp server, find the ‘plugins’ folder.
2. Deactivate all your plugins by renaming the folder ‘plugins-hold’ and then trying to log back in to your WordPress admin area.
3. If you are able to log back in properly, you can reactivate the plugins one at a time to see if the problem comes back.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: NOTHING worksHi Bill, that sounds terrible but we’ll probably need a bit more info to be able to help you. Could you be a bit more specific about your steps and what you have been able to see? What do you mean by ‘demo’ page?

In reply to: Old Domain, New WordPressYou can definitely transfer the domain from one hosting account to another, but it requires the admin login for the owner of the account. Is that part of the login issues?
Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: trouble installing WP on local serverClose! Actually, htdocs is the root folder of the server that MAMP creates for you, so the ‘Applications’ and MAMP part aren’t included in your localhost address.
If your WordPress files have all been copied into htdocs, then the address for the login page is:
http://localhost:8888/wp-login.php
If you put a folder called /wordpress/ in htdocs and then copied all your WordPress files there instead (for tidiness, or so you could have multiple installs for testing, etc), the address would be:
http://localhost:8888/wordpress/wp-login.php
Try that and let us know how it goes!
