In reply to: Background CSS problemI think the problem is that Kubrick has some preset images in the header.php. I had this problem when altering this theme of the same type. You’re adding an image in the css (I think), but the header.php is looking for another conflicting image. I might be wrong, but I think if you adjust the image in the header.php, or replace that one with the one you’re calling in the css, it might work. Again, that’s just a thought, as I am a coding idiot.

In reply to: Theme: Semiologic theme and CMSYet another question…sigh…
The plugins gravatar and subcribe to comments are not working, though I believe they are supposed to be one-click installs with this theme. Am I doing something wrong?
Thx!Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Linking to a Post under pagesIt can, if I understand you correctly, but it’s kinda messy if your permalinks aren’t set up properly. If you create a page and name your page slug the exact same name as a post (everything after the main address), it’ll work. Vist my site for an example. I did this just so you could see what I’m talking about. In the nav bar at the top is the page entry “test for steve,” but it takes you to my post “petarded.”
I’ll break it down for ya:
monkeypup.org/petarded is my post link. I made the slug for the page “petarded”, but named it “test for steve.” If you have a different permalink structure, you might have to name the slug something like “archives/123” or “2005/07/23/sample-post.” Whatever’s necessary. This will also work for a page of yours not in your wordpress folder. Just change the slug accordingly.
Hope this makes sense.

In reply to: Theme: Semiologic theme and CMSDenis-
Well, got my version of Semiologic Theme (monkeypup.org) up, but I have a few questions.
1. Where the heck is the post loop? I’ve looked everywhere. I’m asking so I can use the Image Headline plugin.
2. Any way to get rid of the black lines between the links in the nav bar?
Anyway, glad to have this CMS. The more I use it, the more I like it.
Denis, as always, you rock.

In reply to: Theme: Semiologic theme and CMSMaybe I’m being stupid, but what is the easiest way to get the nav bar to list a link for each page?

In reply to: IE support – criticism(that piece of crap) IE’s always worked for me for WP’s default themes. Additionally, almost every theme I’ve seen released is IE compliant. Only when folks (like myself) mess with a theme to customize ir does it become an issue.

In reply to: adding a line of MyBlogLog.com (stats) code… where?well, you should only put a favicon in the root folder of your site. In your case, mollopoverty.com. So, create a favicon, pop open your ftp program, and upload the favicon to the root folder.

In reply to: adding a line of MyBlogLog.com (stats) code… where?As far as I know, you can pretty much insert html anywhere in a PHP document, and it will be accepted. It’s a matter of where you want it to appear. Say you want to add an html img src code to every post. You’d go to the index.php, look for the post content listing and throw the html in there. If you want to do the same in the sidebar, go to the sidebar php and stick it where you want the image to show up. However, you never want to break up the php code. That’s bad. Stay from outside of the <—-> sections, and you should be okay. As a coding idiot, what I did when I first started learning placement was to save the file that works as goodheader.php (or goodsidebar.php, etc) in your files, then mess around with placement in the existing file, and keep seeing how it looks. Worst case scenario, you can always change the name good—.php back to the original name and nothing’s changed. But that’s just my two cents. For an example, look at my site: monkeypup.org. In the sidebar, I have images in place of category headers. What I did was put an image tag in the sidebar.php in place of the category header. So…does any of what I said make sense? If not, there are far more intelligent and capable people here to help. Might also help to know where on your page you want the html code to appear…

In reply to: Sidebar Headers! Arg!Might help to see it in action on your blog. I’m not really the guy to help you (i.e. Coding idiot), but I think seeing it in action will get you some help. As is, people would have to get Rin and try it out to replicate the problem. Just my two cents. Good luck!

In reply to: Your 3 col layoutWell, I finally got my variation of Liew’s three-column kubrick to look good in IE, Firefox and Opera. I shifted one of the columns on the right to the far left. Tell me what you think. I know the code is less than perfect, but I am new to all of this, so am just interested in feedback on overall look and feel.
You can see it here. Just thought I’d chip in my two cents to the 3 col discussion.Forum: Themes and Templates
