    moshu – I will check into the category templates when I get home from work. Do you know of any forum topics about them? I am really having a hard time trying to figure out how to change things from the examples in the codex.

    Thanks, Paul

    I would like to use subdomains, if you know of a good way to set subdomains to Pages, please let me know.
    What I am really working on now is trying to get the 2 blog categories to display correctly on my Page. I have “My Fitness Blog” displayed in the sidebar, but it also displays the first post in the content area. In the content area, I want to display the text I wrote when I created the Page. Below that I want to display my “Fitness” category.

    I’m trying to figure this out, but I am not finding anything with the search. I am looking through the forums, but I haven’t found what I need yet. The code I used for the sidebar was from the codex, and it is doing what codex said it would. I just don’t know how to modify it to do what I want it to. I don’t have a real solid understanding of the loop, and I think that might be where I’m having problems.

    Thanks, Paul

    In the options – write panel, try unchecking “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically”. Target is not valid xhtml code.

    I figured out how to get rid of the bullet, I needed to use
    list-style:none;. It is displaying this link the way I want it to, but something isn’t right. If I try to add more links, it displays the extra links below the menu bar instead of inline. If I add another get_links() it gets more weird, it displays the category title below the links. If anyone has any ideas how to make it work adding more links to the menu, please let me know.

    Thanks,
    Paul

    solidfan, thanks for the reply. I have that link category set to add
    <li></li>
    , but I guess it might not work like that in this situation. I added the tags, and now the hover works fine, and the text is centered like the other buttons. There is a bullet on it, that is displaying over the button next to it. I have tried to put text-decoration:none; just about everywhere to get rid of it, but it is still there. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the help,
    Paul

    I’m using this theme, and it is great. I am trying to add to the mainmenu, and I need a little help. I am adding a link to the menu, and I can’t figure out how to get the hover behavior of this link to match the page links. When I hover over this link (forum), the whole menu changes color. Also, I need to get the text centered in the button. Any ideas? I would also like to make the HOME link behave like the page links, to me, it loses the button effect by not changing like the rest.
    Any help would be much appreciated. I have never seen PHP code before starting with WordPress last week. I have some trouble with the syntax trying things out of the codex. Any links to more information on this would also be appreciated.
