In reply to: change text widget text color onlyYou need CSS that says only text in the sidebar should be white. This should do it for paragraphs and bullet lists in the sidebar…
#sidebar .widget li a, #sidebar-home .widget li a, #sidebar .widget p, #sidebar-home .widget p { color: white; }Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Newly Installed WordPress, but new posts 404 not found!Can you try resaving your permalink settings (Settings _ Permalinks), to flush rewrite rules. Even if you’ve not changed the settings recently.

In reply to: Links only show when logged inYour code’s good. And the webpage looks good to me too from your description of what you’re trying to achieve. I’m using Firefox 32.
So perhaps this isn’t a case of being logged in or not, after all I’m not, but something to do with the browser where things aren’t rendering as intended?
So, that prompted me to try in Safari – no problem – and then Chrome, where it doesn’t look as intended.
I can only think of two things. Firstly, can you try using this form of break:
<br />
instead of:
<br>
Else, do you have some fancy filtering or blocking browser addons?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Hyperlink Changes After UpdatingHi,
Firstly, this is the support forum for wordpress.org, not .com. The latter is a hosted service, whereas everyone here hosts their own instance of WP. Click here for wordpress.com support.
But as you mention this is a class project, I’ll see if the moderators won’t mind me providing the quickest answer.
You are trying to achieve the impossible. Imagine if any website you could access with your browser had access to files on your computer… that wouldn’t be a very secure state of affairs! So wordpress.com does not allow paths beginning with:
file://
because your browser wouldn’t allow your wordpress.com site to access files held locally on your computer anyway.The only way to hyperlink from your website to the file is by sticking the file on a web server, and perhaps the most convenient way for you to do that is to use wordpress.com for that too.
Good luck! And please don’t try and respond further here or the moderators will definitely give me a ticking off.

In reply to: Links only show when logged inDo you want to be like this? In which case, you can see the markup in the lower half of the screen grab.
Of course, I may have misinterpreted what you were saying entirely?!

In reply to: No option to upgrade to 4.0Hmm. The plugin background update tester tells me:
PASS: Your WordPress install can communicate with WordPress.org securely.
PASS: No version control systems were detected.
PASS: Your installation of WordPress doesn’t require FTP credentials to perform updates.
PASS: All of your WordPress files are writable.Weird.

In reply to: No option to upgrade to 4.0Wow, must be the only person out there with no access to the one-click upgrade.
I guess I’ll be following the manual instructions. But I wonder, is the unexplained absence of the one-click upgrade persistent? Will I have to do every upgrade from here on in manually?

In reply to: [Decode] Decode and Safari on ipadAh, just found this thread with a make-do fix. Appears Jetpack Comments is the culprit here. Will try and report back here.

In reply to: [Decode] Decode and Safari on ipadI’m experiencing something very similar for two different sites on Decode. All pages serve OK on ipad Safari. The blog homepage serves just fine. Open an individual post and game over.
Picking up on your last contribution here Scott, both sites employ Jetpack Comments.

In reply to: [Decode] Buddypress themeThanks Mercime. Here’s a screenshot.
It just doesn’t inspire me to get started with the “CSS tweaks”! 🙂

In reply to: [Decode] How to center embedded video in DecodeNo, you didn’t misinterpret me. It was intended to replace the previous attempt entirely.
It appears that all the examples online for responsive video embedding assume you’ll want 100% width. And indeed, this works for your site.
But I can think of no reason, or find any explanation, as to why the same shouldn’t work for centering a video embed at less than 100% width.
