In reply to: Kubric Theme: Insert sidebar on post pageDue to the way Kubrick is coded that could cause you all sorts of problems. But to start you need to consult index.php and look at the sidebar include. Then paste it in page.php. Then adjust the CSS.

In reply to: Design help: fluid v. non-fluid nav barAll I am going to say in answer to this is that h nav bars are right at the limit of CSS doability. You could try Listamatic

In reply to: Fantastico and WordPress – A Question@thepopulist: I think we have all experienced a degree of frustration from time to time. But if you consider your own posts here fairly I think you would agree that a certain lack of familiarity with ftp is making this more difficult than it need be. That is my point. WP does not set out in its docs or anywhere else to teach people basic server side skills. And generally everyone would tend to agree- Matt is pretty smart. 🙂

In reply to: Fantastico and WordPress – A Question@thepopulist: over and above the WP documentation which is pretty good in this regard – I think it is fair to say that no one should be messing with server side software unless either they know what they are doing or they are willing / able to learn. No one handed these skills to any blogger on a plate. The same people generally do not attempt to fly private aircraft or do surgical operations for the same reason. These things need to be learned first. 🙂
Add this before the loop Part II
<?php rewind_posts(); ?>Should do it.
Try to find the Codex on multiple loops.

In reply to: Argentina attackAnd AFAIK there is not and has never been any linux snobbery in these forums. Recognising, acknowledging, and using a program that was built for the purpose is not snobbery. Historically IIS has caused endless grief to WP users.

In reply to: First Time WP User – Nothing But Problems!If you need a reinstall – and I agree with Moshu – there is no point in putting it off. Should be quick and straight forward.

In reply to: How to build different “sections” on a WP websiteMU is not needed here. Nor are multiple installs. The php hackery would be mainly if conditionals. eg If it is category Roman Empire do such and such (eg include sidebar 3). So just look up if conditionals on a php site and hack away. A test blog locally would be good so you can practice. 🙂

In reply to: How to build different “sections” on a WP websiteWhat you need here in WP terms is pretty elementary. But it does need a degree of hackery from a php progammer. There plenty to be found in these parts. 🙂
