In reply to: Different Headers for each ‘page’Okay, let me just understand and clear up some jargon. I assume you are talking about Pages and not posts, right?
Yes, you can create a specific template file for each version of the Page you want to use, which actually isn’t very difficult. It’s explained in the Codex Pages. Just copy the
page.phpwith names like page-1.php, page-2.php or use the Page ID numbers to help you remember like page-42.php. Inside of page-42.php you would just change the header from this:include(get_template_directory() . '/header.php');to:
include(get_template_directory() . '/header2.php');and have a different header image, text or whatever in
header2.php.You could also use Conditional Tags and set up the INCLUDE header tag in a conditional tag using the
is_page('42')where “42” is the page ID and put this on yourpage.phptemplate file that says something like, if this is page 42, show header-42.php, and so on.You can find more about headers at Designing Headers.

In reply to: Strip header tag from links.phpOh, it’s not the HEADER you want to get rid of but the “heading”. Some confusion here. The header is the template that is at the top of your page, often called the “masthead”.
<h3>is a heading.Okay, this is the part that applies:
// Display the category name
echo ' <li id="linkcat-' . $cat['link_category'] . '"><h3>' . $cat['cat_name'] . "</h3>nt
n";Remove that part. Your
<h3>heading will be gone.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Readable Changelog 1.5.2Wow, this isn’t just a patch but an improvement. Thanks to all!
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: NEW: Upgrade to 1.5.2We’re already starting to get error reports around here that come from people NOT deleting the files FIRST before uploading the new.
And DO NOT DELETE
wp-config.php.Follow the instructions at the top of the page and your upgrade will take only a few minutes. Just don’t try any shortcuts or you will end up here and we’ll ask “did you delete the files before uploading”. 😉

In reply to: AM and Pm in post?http://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time has the information for setting all the times.
But changing from PM to AM means changing the time in your Admin Panel > Options > General panel, set the time for you according to your UTC time.

In reply to: Adhesive (sticky) on home pageThe plugin is setup to show it automatically at the top of the Front Page and only in the category the post belongs to. So if you have it stored in category A and B, on the category view for C, you won’t see it, but you will when viewing A and B.

In reply to: Button array – image rolloversFirst, we “frown” on long code submitted here. If we have a link to your site, we can see the CSS or if no site is available, please post a link to a pastebin site in the future.
There are a lot of resources on the Internet that will help you fix this. On the WordPress Codex (the online manual) we have help and resources at Creating Horizontal Menus and Dynamic_Menu_Highlighting that will take you through the process step by step.
With the really long file names, there is a greater chance of messing things up by a slipped letter, so I recommend that you 1) change these to relative links not absolute (
/images/button1.gif) and 2) change the names to something very simple to make the process easier. 3) If you are changing from HTML to PHP, then be sure the pages linked have PHP extensions. If not, then leave it.The two articles linked will help you through the very simple process of making this happen.

In reply to: How to view posts only in Category wise?I think you are asking how to be able to click on a category and see all the posts within that category? Or are you asking to see the entire posts instead of the excerpts in the category view?
Until we get clarification, see Category Templates in the WordPress Codex to help answer most of your questions about the category web page view.

In reply to: Indenting child categoriesThe indention of lists comes from the CSS not from the template tag. You need to set the UL and LI margins so they will be positioned where you want them to be. In most WordPress Themes, the sidebar list is in a nested list form, which can be really confusing to track and figure out which part of the list belongs to which part you want indented. To help you figure it out, see Styling_Lists_with_CSS and Customizing Your Sidebar.

In reply to: HOWTO: make a photolog like this using wordpressIt does not stretch the images. It automatically figures out what the height should be and sets the maximum height or width to whatever it is set for. The default script is for thumbnail 150px. You can copy that and edit the script to make it whatever you want. It maintains the original size ratio beautifully. I use it all over my site in my gallery pages for thumbnails and resizing images for years.

In reply to: Benevolence theme – not showing excerptsOkay, let’s clear a few things up. For extensive information on how to use the
<!--more-->see: Linking_Posts_Pages_and_Categories.When used with
the_content()template tag, where you put the MORE tag (from the Quicktags above the Write Post textarea where you write your post), an excerpt will be show to that point.If you use
the_excerpt()instead ofthe_content(), the first 120 words of the post will be show automatically or whatever you have entered in your explicit excerpt text area on the Write Post panel.Both methods will show the excerpt on the front page and when you click the title, it will show the full post on the single post page, whether or not you are using the
index.phpto generate both page views. The view of the page is based upon The Loop not the template tag you use within it.If you are trying to generate a specific look for the single post view, then you can use a template called
single.phpas discussed in Stepping Into Templates.Podz mentioned using the
page.phptemplate which is used for generating Pages in WordPress not single post web pages.Forum: Themes and Templates
