In reply to: Cannot Connect Locally with VVV after InstallProblem Solved! Finally, figured it out myself. Here’s how:
Reset my hosts file located in: C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc
using Microsoft’s Fixit Wizard found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972034/en-usIf this does not fix the problem for anyone else, here are other suggestions from my post over on github: https://github.com/Varying-Vagrant-Vagrants/VVV/issues/550

In reply to: Cannot Connect Locally with VVV after InstallAlready tried that and I have read all over the internet for hours without any success. Strange thing happened during that time; left vagrant open, a window quickly opened and closed, too fast to read, but I could tell it had something to do with MySQL.
I typed the IP 192.168.50.4 in the address bar and now I am connected to the server, BUT when I click on the local.wordpress.dev link I get can’t display page. When I click on Fix Connection Issues, I receive the following alerts.
The device or resource (local.wordpress.dev) is not set up to accept connections on port “The World Wide Web service (HTTP)”.
Hopefully, when I figure out what to do with that info I will be up and running.
Thanks for the response and links!

In reply to: WAMP and VVV Installation on Same Computer?Sounds good. Thank you!
I came across VVV in the WP handbook and want to give it a try, but if the learning curve is difficult I want to use WAMP as a familiar fallback when I want to spend time developing.
I’ve worked with customizing pre-made themes before and now that I have my web design degree and more time to learn what they don’t teach in school, I want to learn WP theme development starting with the best practices/methods for setting up a development environment the correct way.

In reply to: Make text holder background transparent*text color
Your code only has the text property and does not include the selector, which is body in this case.

In reply to: [Theme 2012]: Move elements of my blog page?I do not have an answer for this yet. I found the correct file, but when I move the code it does not move to the desired area.
I want to move Leave Reply between the post content and the Share/Like buttons. The php code for this is in the content.php file; however, when I move it below the content it gets placed underneath the Like button.
I am using Jetpack’s Sharing tool and I do not know where code is for any plugins installed. Since this is an add-on and not in the content.php file I do not know how to get the Leave Reply placed above the share buttons.
I hope someone can help so I can have this resolved soon and move on to fixing other issues. I am kind of stuck at this point.

In reply to: [Hatch] Navigation bar for different pagesWhat theme?
You have to create pages for it and a menu. To create a menu Go to Appearance–Menus and for pages, add a page.

In reply to: [Custom Community] Space between bottom paragraph & footerwp-21 is right, removing the two
will solve your issue.May I suggest something unrelated to your question? Your website is very informative, unfortunately it is extremely hard to read b/c you have way too much text and nothing to break it up. If you want people to read your site you might want to consider eliminating any unnecessary information.
For example, your FAQ page–I cannot differentiate between the questions and the answers. Consider using headings, bold, and spacing. And you should left align all your text. Center alignment is difficult to read. Here are a couple of links that offer some great insight to writing for the web.

In reply to: Remove page title displayed under menu barActually, ? is replaced with the number of the page id (just to be clear).
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Remove page title displayed under menu barYou need to post a link to the site and the name of your theme.
Then the code you need looks something like this, but you have to figure out the selector for the page title. For example, I use the 2012 theme and my CSS code looks like this:
/*Hides the Page Title*/
.page-id-? .entry-title {
display: none;
}?= the number of the page id
Add each page you do not want page titles displayed.An issue I am having is the Share/Like buttons only work if I select Show buttons on: Front Page, Archive Pages, and Search Results.
I only want them to work on posts. Am I doing something wrong?

In reply to: [Custom Community] Space between bottom paragraph & footerFirebug is a very useful tool for editing pages and seeing how the changes effect the look of the website without actually changing the code. It also makes it easy to locate the specific elements you are wanting to change.
You can find the margin settings in your style.css file. You should only make changes in the child theme.
Read this on how to set up a child theme.
