In reply to: Subpages and Navigationif your nav is in your header you can create a ” header2 ” template with the new nav bar of your choice, or without the nav bar.
to do that you go to single.php, page.php, etc. wherever your subs are ( depends on your theme )
the original looks like this…
<?php get_header(); ?>change to this…
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/header2.php'); ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: adding a welcome messageyou might try creating an ” intro ” template, make a new page with this new template, and then assign it as your home page via admin > settings > reading > front page displays.

In reply to: excerpt on steroidIanD
that’s the plug! btw – there is a mod that corrects problems with original – see link below. tested up to and including v2.6
the only limitations to controlling html tags are me at the moment. but i did get my links out of the box. haven’t tried it yet in the advanced excerpt option in post admin, but will shortly.
thanks!

In reply to: Having trouble understanding the general flow of wordpressyou could have a page called press releases. the page could contain an intro statement and then links to all your releases. your releases would be individual posts.
nothing wrong with editing a page, adding a link each time you write a release.

In reply to: Images only load in Safari… not in other browsers :(a couple of questions/comments. simple things first.
1) is this the first time you have tried an upload on this theme?
2) try viewing/loading with the default theme
3) get the path to the images and dial them in the url address on the browser and see if you see anything.

In reply to: Using pages not stored on mySQLa little more detail might help. an example. you wish to build non-database cookie recipe files that you can “insert” in a database post or “point-to” with a link? something like that? these examples are basic ” a href= ” code. the point-to example has the option of replacing a page or opening a new window so you don’t leave your blog. i’ve never tried to replace in a situation like this but rather open a new window. so i don’t know if replace will achieve your goal.

In reply to: Msg access via Categories – setting attributesit’s cool to let us know how you fixed a problem.
don’t think you can fix this issue via the admin panel. the issue is how the theme is coded, whether to deliver a full post or an excerpt. your solution is right. if there is a better solution, i for one would like to hear it.

In reply to: Sidebar issue in different browsers!this is a common problem. it usually involves a css alternative option when IE6 is recognized. there are also tried and true hacks though they may not be valid markup. here are threads that may help. if not, let the forum know…

In reply to: My Home Page is not updatingcheck to see if you have “valid” coding before and after. make sure your edits are from a ‘clean” editor = no ms word. i am on a mac and use text wrangler or text edit for creating code. i also use dreamweaver which allows me to both upload and download files which helps me verify that changes are recognized.
