In reply to: Remaindered Link/Aside issueI think that’s Matt’s aside code but I haven’t tried it myself. I did notice that you’ve commented out the first php statement of your old loop but you didn’t comment out the second. The // turns the line into a comment but only until it hits a ?>
Try adding a // to the second php statement
<?php //if (have_posts()) : ?><?php //while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>I like your site’s design. Clean, funky and not overly dark.

In reply to: sigh…vertical picture with text on side problemTry adding padding to the images. Put this at the end of your stylesheet.
.entry img { padding: 4px; }
or
.entry img { padding: 0 4px; }(0 pixels on the top/bottom and 4px spacing on left/right sides – adjust spacing as necessary)The .entry img will affect <img> tags only in the <div class=”entry”>. (aka just the pictures in your posts).

In reply to: How would you add a budget/spreadsheet?In WordPress the loop runs through every entry that matches the current query. How it displays that information is entirely up to you. So if you wanted to build a spreadsheet then you could design your loop to output a table. And in certain cells you’d display the fields you want. For instance you could turn the Excerpt field into the cost and use the Title field for what you purchased. A better idea would be to use custom fields to store the budget data. You can pull that information out easily using Scott Reilly’s Get Custom Fields plugin.
Assuming you have regular posts and budget posts you’ll probably have to run two queries because regular posts displaying in the middle of your table would ruin the effect :-). So run two loops in your page. One is your regular blog. The second loop outputs the table by only querying posts in the ‘budget’ category.
As for spreadsheet functions totaling columns… You can use PHP to capture costs as you go through the loop and then display totals at the end.
Let me know how you’re thinking of displaying the information and I’ll try to be a bit more specific. In the meantime you can check the Codex for information on multiple loops.

In reply to: Horizontal Menu: Hyperlink Problem When Clicking On Menu ButtonsNo problem, vkaryl put me on track with the missing contact.php.
If I’m understanding you right you’re asking about the header (that contains the big title ‘imustictest’). That’s actually an image including the border and even a little background color. Here’s a direct link to it so you’ll see what I mean.

So to extend the blue to the top you’ll actually have to edit the image itself. Once you’ve changed it you can just copy it over the old image.

In reply to: Horizontal Menu: Hyperlink Problem When Clicking On Menu ButtonsHey rester, your links should look like this:
http://nohypemedia.com/wordpress/index.php?page_id=8
faq.php doesn’t actually exist as a file. Instead WP loads index.php which then checks to see what you want to load – in this case, the page with ID #8 (your faq). It then pulls up the proper template and content.
The easiest way to get the proper links is to ‘view’ the page from the manage pages section. That’ll put the proper URL in the address bar which you can cut and paste into your menu.

In reply to: Posts show in admin, but not on site“ok something is going on, because I’m getting the same error again. i shouldn’t have to clear my cookies ever for these posts to show up.”
Cookie issues are usually a conflict with another program. That would explain why it comes back – you clear your cookies and then use the conflicting program that resets the cookie. If that’s what’s happen you’ll have to clear your cookies and then try other applications you have installed until you can replicate the problem.
I just ran into this exact problem today.

In reply to: Vanilla Forum & Posts Not FoundVanilla gives you a text box to type the domain you want your cookie set to. Maybe WP can use http://www.example.com and Vanilla uses just example.com?

Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Download helpI can open both the .zip and .tar files using IE 6 and Firefox on WinXP. I can use the default WinXP extractor on the .zip and WinRAR 3 opens both the .zip and .tar.
For those people who can’t download from wordpress.org have you tried supermegazord.com? Can you successfully open the download from that server?
