I simply put the NC rules before the WP ones. * I also took them out of the ifmodule tags so that it generates an error if that module ever gets disabled. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How do I disable this prompt](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-disable-this-prompt/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [8 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-disable-this-prompt/#post-10005505) * Nevermind I found it in Jetpack settings. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Jetpack - WP Security, Backup, Speed, & Growth] "No editor could be selected." when trying to upload site icon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-editor-could-be-selected-when-trying-to-upload-site-icon/) * [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-editor-could-be-selected-when-trying-to-upload-site-icon/#post-5442142) * Fortunately, I am the guy running my server (and how often is this the case?) but unfortunately, I have no idea how to install image editors or if it entails purchasing additional features. I think the site icon feature would be a lot more attractive if it was a stand-alone function. * Incidentally, I have an icon file that’s already formatted and ready to use. Would be nice if there was a way to skip the editor and just drop it in. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Sidebars - Dynamic Sidebar Classic Widget Area Manager] Unable to create custom sidebar](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-create-custom-sidebar/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-create-custom-sidebar/#post-5413801) * Cool. The newest update fixed it. Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Custom Sidebars - Dynamic Sidebar Classic Widget Area Manager] Unable to create custom sidebar](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-create-custom-sidebar/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-create-custom-sidebar/#post-5413785) * I just switched to the “Easy Custom Sidebars” plugin, and it worked without issue. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582201) * Aha. I’ve got it now. Here’s my code… * ``` body #page { background: transparent; } #primary { background-color: ; } #branding { background: transparent; } ``` * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582200) * Header and body backgrounds overlap. That means that even if you set the header bg to fully transparent, the body bg still shows through. I really want my header to have no background. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582199) * I tried it again using Jetpack, and this time it worked. It only affects the body of your page though. Now I just need to figure out how to do it for the header. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582191) * I installed the “Simple Custom CSS” plugin, and just copy pasted your code right into it. * Yes I want mine to look just like yours * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582188) * Hi Nhat. That did nothing. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [page background transparency](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-background-transparency-1/#post-4582180) * Thank you. Yes I am using a child. Do you have any advice about the transparency? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Unable to to update plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-to-update-plugins/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-to-update-plugins/#post-3738056) * OK I’ve figured it out. First, the two plugins which needed updating somehow got deactivated, but not by me. Second, if you try to update a deactivated plugin, you will get the error message I posted above, which is strange. You would think you could still update plugins, even though you’re not currently using them. * Anyway, once I activated them, they updated without problem. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Twenty Eleven very narrow](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/#post-3521785) * WTF? Twenty Eleven is one of the results when I search for “flexible width”! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Twenty Eleven very narrow](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/#post-3521722) * How stupid of me. I should have know to search for “twentyeleven one column width”. It’s so obvious. * I’m quite familiar with forum searching, and I didn’t find any answers I liked. That’s why I asked, and I’m glad I did because I really like Courtney’s answer. I think I needed a different theme, not monkeying with code. * Thank you for your attentive moderating. _[Comment moderated]_ * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Twenty Eleven very narrow](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/) * Thread Starter [Joe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timelessbeing/) * (@timelessbeing) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-very-narrow/#post-3521599) * Thanks.
