Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: bachground not showing in template darkwaterHi, I found this discussion by a search on Earthlink.
I have a web design customer that is hosting their site there. Earthlink has a button in the control panel to install WordPress. You’d think they might support the software.
Nope.
I was on the phone with them for 6 hours on Saturday trying to talk to someone who understood about Permalinks. None do, and when I finally talked to someone who would check to see if they had the AllowOverride on and enabled, I was told that they DO NOT and WILL NOT use the setting. The customer service woman was pretty rude about it, too.Permalinks is not the only issue I’m having. Even after upgrading the software, it apparently does not recognize any link with mixed html and php in it. This makes custom design nearly impossible, much less creating links on the fly.
I can’t even get a feedburner script to show on the page, although it is in the html source of the page.
This has been a nightmare. Its as if everything is carved in stone and shall not budge one iota.
I really hate moving my customer’s website, but Earthlink has lost a long term customer. He’s already approved a move to a new host if I can’t get this resolved. And I can NOT work with such a nasty server!

In reply to: Admin link popup shrinking my browser windowOk, after hours of research and no real solution, I’ve decided to just disable the option in FireFox that “forces new windows to open in new tabs” when using this program.
Not optimal, but do-able.

In reply to: Admin link popup shrinking my browser windowOk, maybe I’m not explaining this properly.
The Rich Text Editor where we write our blogs has little iconic buttons. When I click on insert link or insert image, the program wants to open up a new (and very small) window.My browser (and everyone’s who will be posting in our little group) is configured to open all new windows <b>within the same browser window</b> – under a new tab.
So the end result is that my browser suddenly shrinks to approx 300 x 200 pixels or thereabouts when I click the “add link” or “add image” buttons.
I need a way to make the window resizing stop. Ideas?

In reply to: Add Subtitle below Blog TitleGo look in your themes folder.
There’s a file called header.phpPut in there:
<h1><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
<h2><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></h2>Make sure your CSS file has the correct definations for the font sizes/placement you want.
Hope that helps
