  • what do you want to change? the font size only for the posts or the font size for the entire website? All this can be done by editing the CSS file of the theme used.

    Did you actualy measured the width of the right col from a snapshot? Maybe it just moves and there is another element interfering.

    You can use a trick used for ie6 compatibility issues. In the styles.css of your theme for #sidebar at line 197 add _width: 300px; under the width:300px;. The _ selector was used for ie6 because he was the only one who worked out css rule with _ in front, and all the other browsers excluded the rule.

    your refer to the grey bullets after the menu item?

    I am starting to think that this is a problem with your theme somewhere. Just for the sake of the experiment, change your theme with the default 2011 or 2010 theme and try to post the link to a page THAT HAS IMAGES ON THE POST. See if it works.

    If that works at least we know the problem. It is curious that many other websites work, (mine included) and yours doesn’t even if it seems that all is ok.

    Reply the result.

    I was wondering, did this thumbnail picture problems started recently, did you had this problem from the start or it happened after an event (theme update, plugin update, etc.)

    Ok. I did a little research on this matter.
    It seems that Facbook Publisher uses Open Graph protocol tags to scrap the information from post, like title, image, etc.. More information here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/

    First of all, i would recommend you to add a facebook like plugin to your website. For my website i use AddThis plugin. Very easy to configure and use (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/addthis/). This may solve the problem. If not, you can try adding the OG tags in the header.php page of your theme folder.

    Ex: (before the </head> tag)

    <meta property="og:title" content="The Rock"/>
        <meta property="og:type" content="movie"/>
        <meta property="og:url" content="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/"/>
        <meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-imdb.com/rock.jpg"/>
        <meta property="og:site_name" content="IMDb"/>
        <meta property="fb:admins" content="USER_ID"/>
        <meta property="og:description"
              content="A group of U.S. Marines, under command of
                       a renegade general, take over Alcatraz and
                       threaten San Francisco Bay with biological
                       weapons."/>

    Maybe this would work.

    Ok, let me ask you. From this page what image would you like to show on facebook post? The post itself has no image in it from what I can see.

    Go to Admin Panel > Settings > Discussion

    Browse down to section Before a comment appears
    Check the option An administrator must always approve the comment if you want to approve the comments before displaying them on the blog. If you want the comments to be displayed instantly uncheck this option.

    Ok, it seems that you use a out of the box theme and made no changes.

    Problems:
    1. You have no menu. (Or i was unable to find it.)
    2. You need a good looking image banner.
    3. Not a must, but i think a logo will help and give a more professional look to your blog. (it works with text to, but something that can be integrated good in the banner)
    4. Just from the home page i seen 8 font colors used in your articles. It is very confusing and looks bad. If you want to highlight some parts of text use bold, or a slightly variation of the usual font color.

    It is a shame, the theme is holding you back, because I can see you put a lot of work in your articles. It can be a really good looking blog if you work on the looks a little.

    I think that if you looked a little more you could find a better theme. Maybe take a look at the site5 free wordpress themes. They have some good looking theme with sliders, and are really easy to configure. They can be used out of the box. http://www.site5.com/wordpress-themes/

    Check out the previews and see if you like something.

    It looks really good.
    It is a great focus on the products. Big and colorful pictures contrast well with the background.

    What you could do is maybe resize that product boxes on the bottom. You have lots of unused space around the pictures. Maybe you could show more products on the first page.

    And another thing, the sub-menu colors are not the best choice. Black on dark grey is not ok. Maybe change to the same color as the main menu.

    P.S.:
    Please tell me what ecommerce plugin are you usin? It looks great.
    And what plugin you used for the home page product slider?

    Very good looking product flypage.
    It is easy to use and functional, straight to the point.

    Overall i think it is a good website, not flashy, but professional looking.

    Thank you all for the good ideas.
    Indeed, SEO point of view the site is really poor. I will have to get that taken care of.

    I was thinking maybe to bold or highlight the portofolio button in the menu so it will be seen better. (Thank you bms)

    Indeed i used the clean layout and not so flashy colors so that the focus will be on the projects themselfs and not on the website.

    Thanks again for your consideration.

    Give me the link to one of your pages.

    Hm.. this is really strange.
    Do your pages or posts have images in them? Are the images uploaded using media gallery? Located in wp-content/uploads/….. i mean or you use a different folder?

    🙂 This happened to me once. When moving from a theme to another or upgrading, sometimes the main menu option is changed. Glad i could help.

    ok, None of your images are loading. I think they are not on the server. Can you look via FTP to see the files that are still there? Maybe in the gallery you can see them as the thumbnails. On image uploading, wordpress makes i think 3 versions of the image (in three sizes) and a thumbnail to display in the gallery.

    Please verify via FTP that the files are where they suposed to be.
    For exemple: http://www.miraclecreative.com/websites/city/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/iStock_000007618481XSmall.jpg

    This is one of the images from your website. It does not load. Can you see it on the server?
