In reply to: Taxonomies in functions or plugin?Hi,
The reason it’s recommended to extend functionality of your WordPress site via plugins instead of adding more and more code to your themes’ functions.php file is two-fold:
- The functions.php can quickly become unmanageable, and very large. This makes it hard to keep track of what’s going on in the file over time.
- If you ever change your theme, you’ll lose all of the functionality that you’ve added to the themes’ functions.php
Hope that helps!

In reply to: Can i add custom class to 2nd instance of wordpress nav menu?Hi!
If the second instance of the menu is in a different location, say a widget area, you can style the second instance of the menu directly within a stylesheet (or custom CSS plugin) by wrapping items in that class.
For example:
.widget-name #menu-primary
If both menus are directly after one another in the same div wrapper, you can target the second instance of the menu by using CSS psuedo-elements.
For example:
#menu-primary:nth-child(2)
More on CSS peuedo-elements can be found here.
Hope that helps!

In reply to: [WP Greet Box] Errors on all pages om wp 3.5Hey – I’m not the dev for this plugin, but for any devs that might stumble on this, this particular issue can be fixed by wrapping the offending setcookie function (around line 490, depending on the plugin version you have) in
wp-greet-box.class.php
with anis_admin

In reply to: How to fix spacing on sidebarHi,
One of many options is to set the height for this element, for example, this could be added to your stylesheet:
.widget_products_predictive_search { max-height: 100px; }

In reply to: Fatal error cannot access adminHi,
This is frequently due to a plugin (or a theme) incorrectly registering a taxonomy.
I’d begin with deactivating your WordPress plugins.
If that doesn’t work, please try these forum threads, and see if following the instructions help:

In reply to: Can someone please tell me what the Theme designer means?Echoing WPyogi, for the most part – if you insist on retaining this theme, hiring someone competent is a great idea.
Possible hosting issues aside, there’s quite a long list of issues:
- Over 170 requests (and counting) to various images and scripts, many of which are redundant POST requests
- Load time in minutes (Should ideally be a few seconds at most)
- High amount of images on the homepage without using a lazy-load or caching solution
But you do have some options, if you can’t hire a developer:
Have you considered using a different theme and starting from scratch? That’d be my route for sure. You can try creating a ‘Child Theme’, say, using the free ‘Twenty Ten’ theme as the base theme. (It’s structurally similar to your site)
More on creating Child Themes here.
From there, you can easily create grids using a plugin, if you’re not comfortable coding it:
Search for grid-related plugins on WordPress.org
After that, I recommend upgrading your hosting, if possible, and/or using caching and/or lazy-loading. More on these items below:

In reply to: How do I move the image closer to the header on homepageHi,
The element causing this is in your theme stylesheet; are you comfortable editing css?
Specifically, line 331 of your stylesheet:
#main { background: #f3f3f3; padding: 40px 0 20px 0; }
However, this element is present on all pages.
There are many ways to change this.
Slower, correct way: Add a page template to be used only for the homepage, then add an element in your stylesheet that changes the padding.
Quick and dirty way: You can add an inline style directly onto the homepage, containing a negative
padding-top
value that overrides your stylesheet, like:#main {padding-top: -40px !important;}

In reply to: Logo to link to a pageHi,
This should do it:
(Replace http://YourLinkHere.com with your own link)
<?php if(get_option('mm_logo')) { ?> <a href="http://YourLinkHere.com"><img src="<?php echo get_option('mm_logo'); ?>" alt="<?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?>" /></a> <?php } else { ?> <a href="http://YourLinkHere.com"><img src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/images/logo.png" alt="<?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?>" /></a>

In reply to: Can someone please tell me what the Theme designer means?Without knowing the full context, it appears that this means that the files in your WordPress theme are not compatible with a version the theme designers recently updated to.
You may have updated the theme to the new version, which caused issues. From the reply, it seems that there are CSS issues.
If you’d like to go into detail about what issues you’re having with the theme, I can possibly diagnose further.

In reply to: [BlackBird] Show full blogHi,
There are many ways to do this (there may also be an option to do this within this specific theme, commonly by using Page Templates), but here’s one of the fastest ways to get a blog page to show up:
- Create a new post category called ‘blog’ (or anything you like)
- Assign your posts to this category
- Now you can go to http://laoamericanct.org/category/blog, and see all of your posts
- You can also add a link to this page on your menu, in Appearance -> Menus
Does that help?

In reply to: Template not found overriding single page's themeHi,
Showing specific categories are available by default on WordPress sites by going to:
yoursite.com/category/category-name
More on WordPress categories here
Note: You may have to update permalinks before these links appear properly on your site.
Here’s how to do that. (very easy)Additionally, you can create menu items in Appearance -> Menus, so that you can add a direct link to that category in your menus.

In reply to: [Sweet Custom Dashboard] Duplicated footer statementhello,
Unless the site is modifying or removing wp-admin/admin-footer.php elsewhere, you can remove line 45 from custom_dashboard.php.
thanks for the plugin, Remi – great time-saver 🙂
Thank you camelgraph, that really helped.
Same issue; multiple server configurations, default wp theme, no other plugins active.
