This theme has a major glitch in it!

WordPress recommends themes?

What, exactly, is the error you’re observing?

Well I don’t know if they recommend it. But the ValidXHTML site is definitely listed pretty high up on the list of sources: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Using_Themes

Anyways, the error I’m observing is that whenever you click on any of the “Recent comments” links it takes you to a page where the header is cut off.

Check it out. On the 2nd link on my last post.

Its difficult to correct the code with wordpress because its hard to find exactly where the mistake occurs… Clearly there is a mistake in the code that is causing the HTML to display improperly.

If someone could just tell me how to fix that 1 problem it would be a huge help.

Thanks.

Well, be aware that the codex (anything with an url starting at codex.www.ads-software.com) is a wiki. As such, it is community created and managed..

Now, about that missing header issue.

When I visited your demo blog and clicked on a comment link, everything seems to be works as expected — to me. Notice the url has an anchor of ‘#comments` on it. So, your browser scrolls down to that part of the web page. If you scroll up, you’ll find the header.

Here’s my blog: https://www.sandwichreport.com

You’ll find the error when you click the link under recent comments.

Please advise,

Thanks

Click something under “Recent Comments”
It takes you to that comment.

Seems to work to me. What part do you feel isn’t working?

You know how anchors work, right? They take you to a specific location on a page. Like, in this case, the clicked on comment.

Scroll up — the header is still there at the top of the page as always.

I’ve checked it on several different browsers and no luck.

When you click the recent comment “I CAN’T WAIT!” the top half of the header is cut off.

I’ve checked it on a few Macs and a couple Windows machine. I’ve used Safari, Firefox, and IE and the same problem occurs. Half of the header gets cut off and the bottom part of the page has a random piece of a page showing up.

There is the link.

I see what you mean. Very weird…looks like the header image strip isn’t displaying which shortens the header and makes the footer longer. This causes the footer to double up on the background image.

Force that <h1> in the header to show it’s background image with some extra CSS or something and hopefully it will straighten out. Does seem to be a rendering quirk of some kind though so it may not be as easy as it sounds.

Thank you!

Finally someone sees what I’m seeing.

It’s the code that seems to be the problem.

These are the errors:
https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sandwichreport.com%2F%3Fp%3D6&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&verbose=1

I just don’t know how to fix them using the wordpress interface.

Thats it??? No one is gonna help me with this issue.

I am on a buggy version of iE6 here at the office and if the site was gonna break, I’d see it. The BANNER is fine, but do you mean the title bar? It’s doing something weird. See screenshot:

Also the only thing I could find in your code was no closing </p> in your footer. And why all the nested footer divisions? That’s just asking for trouble. ??

its not my code its this terrible code from whoever made the theme.

Maybe someone could take a look at it for me in the admin:
username: technician
pass: 12345678

Hi,
You don’t need to provide admin details. This is a basic HTML/CSS issue, not a WordPress one.

I’ll take a look and see if I can sort a fix and be back shortly.

Okay … I was about to say there is nothing wrong and you are imagine this problem. But …

You are not. This is a very strange problem.

I’m still working on it.

I’m not quite sure why, but they’ve added overflow:hidden to one of the wrapper elements.

#mainpage {overflow:hidden}

Removing that may help, otherwise try removing the height from the footer:

#footerbox{height:65px}
