In reply to: [Xhanch - My Twitter] Tweets aren't updatingThanks. Will chase them
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Sidebar not updatingI think this might be an issue about the size of the widget area in the theme. Anyone know how I can resize that?
Thanks : )

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingThank you
This is the site. If you scroll right down the bottom of any page you’ll see the two widgets that should be on the right hand sidebar.

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingI just see that it hasn’t displayed that text as text in my post here – rather as links.

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingThank you.
I ran validator and it brought up lots of errors – not that that helped me much though : )
One of them definitely isn’t a footer widget because it is a text one and was on the right sidebar before. The other is ‘XMT Latest Tweets’. Not aware of this being a footer widget but not sure.
Below is the text from the text widget that has dropped to footer in case you are able to spot something.
Thank you : )

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingSomething I have just noticed – it isn’t omitting those widgets from the site – it is sticking them down at bottom of the pages (under posts) for some reason, rather than putting them on the sidebar on right. I hadn’t thought to look down there! Hmmm.
Any thoughts?

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingOK – I’ve run the problem past the designer who is on Australia time so will see what he advises since he set the child theme up. Thank you so much for your help so far. I might come back to you : )

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingI feel nervous about changing themes – I am not a site developer. I don’t want to mess things up elsewhere on my site. Just not sure why this sidebar was updating and has now ceased to do so.

In reply to: Sidebar not updatingIt is a child theme that was developed by the guy who built my site. It is based on Thematic Framework.

In reply to: Line breaksThank you. They seem to have held… for now. I had to do each line break twice before it did stay though. Looks good right now.

In reply to: Link not displayingI think I’ve finally got there with some help from the designer who did the original work on my site – he’d done the links all in code on the primary aside and didn’t use the links set up at all. I then managed to add that link eventually with lots of tweaks to make it work. Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate that.

In reply to: Link not displayingSince ‘Links’ isn’t on the right sidebar in Appearance/Widgets does this mean that it is not active? I am confused as to where links are edited – not sure if it is in the links set up (in which case I don’t know why it hasn’t been working) or in primary aside in appearance/widgets but that would entail html editing and it looks a bit daunting!

In reply to: Link not displayingI just found a setting that I had overlooked – under ‘screen options’ in ‘link categories’ there is an option for ‘show on screen’ and it’s set to 20 link categories but doesn’t seem to specify the number of links each category can display.

In reply to: Link not displayingThanks again. I’ve been looking around in Appearance but I’m a bit out of my depth. I’ve done a screen grab of the Widgets page – should I be dragging anything to the sidebar to edit or open? I’ve also done a screen grab of the WP menu on left. But I don’t seem to be able to add attachments to show you these. Is there a way?

In reply to: Link not displayingThank you. I’ve done the cache deleting on WP Super Cache and in Safari. That didn’t do it. I also tried re-numbering the links ratings from 1 to 4 since they were numbered 2-5 because essentially what would have been no 1 doesn’t exist. That didn’t work.
Then I got a little lost. Found widgets under ‘appearance’ and saw that the link sidebars were in ‘primary aside’ but I can’t see anywhere a limit to 3 links displayed. Saw that there was no text for my new link in the sidebar though. Also scoured ‘settings’ on dashboard and again found now limit in there. Where should I look next?
