[1.5] Sidebar.php not working

I’ve got a fresh install of WP 1.5 and I have the same problem with the sidebar. The dashboard doesn’t seem to load entirely either.

….anyway some guru could address in a helpful way, some of the issues with the sidebar?

Funny thing, with some of the suggestions, my php code doesn’t coincide with that being quoted in the post. None of the suggestions being made makes any sense in relation to my installation. For example, nowhere is there to be found, a file called wp-layout.css as mentioned in another thread on this topic.

I think all the code relevant to this problem is in the theme directory. I can change the size of the content or sidebar and make other minor adjustments but I can’t get the sidebar over to the top/right where it belongs. Another thing, the white page will not show up at all so there is no connect between the content and the header.

This lack of formatting was a sponteneous occurance, almost out of nowhere. I am using some html in my postings, but I don’t think I am doing anything out of the ordinary. I have disabled all plugins except for Fortin’s MARKDOWN.

Some of the themes I have attempted to use as a substitute for ‘KUBRICK’ are buggy. Yet I read the raves of those who have successfully installed the new theme. This seems wierd to me. The php to “GILA” won’t even run on my ‘puter without errors. My server is running PHP 4.3.10 and SQL 4.0.22 standard.

One other problem… the classic theme, such as it is, is not visible with IE.

Once the line in admin-header.php is commented out you also need to fix the categories list, which isn’t nested like it should be. Add this to the styles list in sidebar.php:

span.cat-nest {
display: block;
margin-left: 10px;
}

Another problem… the default header in the sidebar is HUGE, so add these to the CSS block to remove them:

#wphead {
display: none;
}
#adminmenu {
display: none;
}

ecuneo,
We aren’t talking about a page layout issue. We are talking about a browser item called “sidebar” on Mozilla/FireFox. It’s a place off to the side of the browser that holds links and small forms. There is an option in WP to add the “write” option to the Mozilla/FireFox sidebar.

The css sidebar is another issue.

i did what logansix suggested, and it seems to work beautifully. thanks!
