But now the content column should be white again. The content and widgets should have a white background, floating on top of a sea of #242D36. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Modify CSS Carrington Blog](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-css-carrington-blog/) * Thread Starter [Jannes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/megrim/) * (@megrim) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-css-carrington-blog/#post-1684778) * No problem. * I have a WAMP instance with a fresh test WP install running on my computer, and I know my way around with filezilla. * Are you sure it’s not possible at all in just the css? * I’ll make sure to document it all, and feed back to the community. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Modify CSS Carrington Blog](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-css-carrington-blog/) * Thread Starter [Jannes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/megrim/) * (@megrim) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-css-carrington-blog/#post-1684764) * Thanks for your reply. * Yes, there is an admin panel for Carrington. Unfortunately there’s no option to change the global background. The only options for colors: * Header Background Color: # Header Text Color: # Header Link Color: # Header Nav Background Color: # Header Nav Link Color: # Header Nav Text Color: # Page Title Color: # Page Subtitle Color: # Link Color: # Footer Background Color: # Footer Text Color: # Footer Link Color: # * My current theme has a `body {background: #242D36}` How can I make that happen to Carrington too? * I’ve reverted to v2.2 on my test site for compatibility purposes. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Filter posts by is_category](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-posts-by-category/) * Thread Starter [Jannes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/megrim/) * (@megrim) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-posts-by-category/#post-1135470) * I’m sorry, but I don’t understand your suggestion. Can you clarify a bit more, please? * Let me try to explain what I would like: if a post is posted in a specific single category (like “event”) I want to hide it from the front page. But NOT if the post has more than one category to it (like “event” & “news”). Was that clear enough? * Helpful link to the [codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Filter posts by is_category](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-posts-by-category/) * Thread Starter [Jannes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/megrim/) * (@megrim) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-posts-by-category/#post-1135234) * I keep mixing up the php “!” with sql “not”. Sorry about that. * `` * Examine the first part: if condition returns true (thus no category 1, 2 or 3) then the query_posts will execute. Because of the minus-sign posts in category 4 will be excluded in the loop. * I would like to exclude specific posts (in the example it’s category 4), but not if there’s more than one category to the post. * And thanks for your quick reply. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Smilies_init](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smilies_init/) * Thread Starter [Jannes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/megrim/) * (@megrim) * [17 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smilies_init/#post-949845) * Just to be complete, here’s all of my plugin’s code: * ``` My Smilies Init Description: Adds card symbols to the smilies directory.
