    Sorry about not getting back – guess I should subscribe to the feed on this topic…

    I don’t exactly understand everything you’ve said – it can be very hard to do without actually seeing code. If you’d like to contact me via my website (wpweaver.info), perhaps I could take a look at what you’re doing. I thought you were just working on a custom Weaver theme, but if you’re doing an interesting plugin, perhaps a quick glance at the code might trigger something. Sometimes just another set of eyes can see an issue.

    We’ve just discovered an issue with PHP versions on Weaver 1.2.1. Code runs on most system, hangs on just a few, and seems to be related to some specific version (not yet determined) of PHP. There will be a new version of Weaver (1.2.3) posted within a couple of days that addresses this issue – we’ve found an alternate way to write the PHP code that works on the two or three sites we know have experienced this issue.

    The Site Header Insert Code section of the Advanced Options supports shortcodes from essentially any plugin. There is a PHP shortcode plugin. That is how to get PHP into the Header section of a page. However, this is past the < /HEAD > tag. There is not a way to get PHP or the output of some PHP logic inserted into the < HEAD > section using Weaver.

    I haven’t looked, but there is likely to be another plugin that let you use PHP to emit HTML in the < HEAD > section – could be done, so I imagine it has. I’m pretty sure there can be multiple themes + plugins that hook wp_head().

    Another approach is to write a plugin. They can be really simple – perhaps a lot easier than trying to mess with a theme’s code.

    Borders around widget areas are a check mark in the Main Options panel of the theme admin panel. A straight line could be done, but would require a CSS snippet.

    I don’t know what fidgetr is, or the example you refer to.

    This will fix the issue:

    #content tr td {padding: 1px 1px;}

    Add that to the < HEAD > section of Advanced Options between the < style > and < /style > tags.

    This might break how other tables look on your pages, so I am trying to figure out a more specific solution other than #content, but for now this will work. I don’t think I like how Twenty Ten styles tables, and may decide to add an alternative for Weaver.

    Sorry missed this question here.

    You can restore things to the original Twenty Ten settings by picking the Default Twenty Ten theme from the choices in the first tab.

    It is called “Information Text” in the Main Options tab under Theme Text Colors category. It is grouped right after the Post Entry color settings, but probably should read “Post Information Text”. I’ll fix that for the next release. Sorry about the confusion.

    Well, you could use 2010 Weaver and add your logo to the Header section of the Advance Options tab – will let you put a link around it.

    After you install and activate Weaver, there will be a new menu item under the admin page Appearance section called 2010 Weaver. Click that, and you should see a fairly full options menu. If you go to the
    Main Options tab, there is an option several items from the top to specify the header height. Change that, then re-upload your header image from the Appearance->Header menu.

    Sorry you’re having trouble with some of the admin aspects of WordPress. Try to stick with it – there really isn’t anything better out there. Once you get the hang of it, you can pick from will over a thousand free theme right here on wp.org, and thousands elsewhere on the web. And almost always – if there is something you want to to with your site – a calendar, an photo show, a mailing list, the weather – whatever – someone else will have wanted to do the same, and you’ll be able to find a plugin to do that. WordPress is sort of the iPhone/iPod Touch of blogging software – if you want to do it, there’s an app (plugin) for that!

    It really is difficult to track what got changed – you can save your changes so far in a saved theme, but changes don’t propagate from subtheme to subtheme. Sorry.

    There is no equivalent of the single column page for posts. Would be fairly hard to do for the single post page.

    It CAN be done, but only by using one of the plugins such as blog-in-blog to put an individual post (or posts from same category) onto a page. Then you could make that page single column.

    But don’t think it can be done by clicking or viewing the automatic single post page you get from the archive widget, for example. Someone could write a special theme to do that, but it would be very specialized.

    It is all in the #access rules.

    Please see 2010 Weaver. It can all be done with CSS. All the rules you need can be found at the end of the functions.php file. Or you could just use the theme. There will be new version shortly that will let you adjust the fixed width of Twenty Ten also.

    Don’t know how wide your single page really is, but if you try my new Twenty Ten child theme (2010 Weaver), it has wider single-page posts by default, and might work as-is. Just installing it and setting it to the Default Twenty Ten theme should look the same as your current site, but with wider single-pages. And if you want, you can then easily tweak other colors and parts of your site, too – all without needing any real CSS changes.

    You also might seem to lose your widgets if the new theme supports a different set of widget sidebars. But your old widgets will get saved into the Inactive Widgets box. For best control, you can empty that box out before changing themes, and after the changes, you will have the last set there. Some themes seem to be compatible with which widgets they show.

    what is SSI?
