In reply to: Menu not displaying in IEhi Eric,
Thanks for the offer. This is really weird…I actually was starting to type you an e-mail when my friend who looks after the site e-mailed me to say thanks for fixing it. I loaded it up in IE7, and lo and behold, the menu bar is now displaying correctly! I haven’t touched anything, so I really don’t know why this is – but I guess the problem has fixed itself.
Thanks again,
Rob

In reply to: Menu not displaying in IEEric,
Many thanks for replying so quickly. While I have some notion of what you’re talking about, I’m in no way a developer and have no idea how to do what you’re suggesting. Can you be any more specific? Is there some way I need to post all or part of the stylesheet code here so you can tell me exactly what to change?
Thanks in advance,
Rob

In reply to: Site not displaying correctly in IEThanks for the link. However, all that tells me is that there are 71 errors. It gives me no indication of which of these 71 errors are relatively harmless, and which might be causing the problems my friend is seeing.
Is there anyone else I can look for answers? I’m assuming that failure to display the menu bar and not showing all posts is caused by something fairly specific…

In reply to: Site not displaying correctly in IEHi samboll,
OK…excuse my non-developer ignorance, but how do I “validate the site”?

In reply to: How to stop text wrapping around photosMoshu,
Thank you, that seems to have sorted it.

In reply to: How to stop text wrapping around photosHello Moshu,
Thanks for your reply. I have very limited knowledge of CSS, but have tracked down the line of code you quoted. I’m guessing that this must overide whatever individual image settings I apply when writing the post?
Question is, what do I need to change this to if I want images to appear in the centre and with no text wrapping?
Thanks,
Rob

In reply to: Font too small in write post windowJust to say that I’ve found the culprit – if I deactivate the Tagaroo plugin, the font size reverts to normal. I’ve found that another user has reported the same issue on their forum. Hopefully they’ll fix it soon.

In reply to: Font too small in write post windowHi Iridiax,
Thanks for your suggestion. Tried it – makes no difference. All Firefiw settings are OK as far as I can see.
Text on all other sites appears at the expected size. Even within the WP “write post” page, the text in the “Title” box appears nice and big, but in the actual post box underneath it’s really small. Any other ideas?

In reply to: How to change name of home pageThe only reference I can find to list_pages in the header file is:
<?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=’); ?>

In reply to: How to change name of home pageOK, my bad – I’m using Autumn Concept 1. Site is at http://www.graysonsinfrance.net/test (if you can’t find it, I’ve already moved it to its “live” location at http://www.graysonsinfrance.net by the time you read this.
I looked in header.php, and it contains various references to “home”, such as the following:
<form method=”get” id=”searchform” action=”<?php bloginfo(‘home’); ?>/”>
and
<h1 id=”logo”>“><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
and
- “>Home
I’m guessing maybe only the third one of these with the cap H needs changing?
Thanks in advance,
Rob

In reply to: Posts displaying in wrong order…but only on main pageWell, I have found a solution…or rather a workaround: another way of achieving the desired result.
Obviously my query_posts statement to exclude posts in one category in index.php was causing a problem with the post order, and while ever that statement was there, I couldn’t find any way of getting the posts back into descending order. So I put the index.php file back as it was originally, and then installed the Advanced Category Excluder plugin, which successfully removes the desired category from the front page without changing the post order.
Got there in the end!

In reply to: Posts displaying in wrong order…but only on main pageHi Srikat,
Well, thanks for trying anyway. So my index.php code worked OK without modification on your host? Bizarre…
What I don’t get is that even if this is caused by a bug in MySQL 5.0.51, the fact that posts are displaying correctly in descending order on my “News” page proves that the problem is not insurmountable. But how to fix it… (scratches head in frustration…)
