    SO i am a graduate student who has been tasked with updating my labs website. I decided to use wordpress as my advisers wanted a blog format content management system and i really liked the sliding doors theme as the purpose of the website is to inform prospective students about what we do. So i have thrown up some stuff on my own domain and hosting (www.evanbronstein.com) and was later informed that i need to have the site look similar to the University’s psychology mainpage (https://www.memphis.edu/psychology/). In other words i need to get similar colors and the three column appearance. well my advisers like the sliding door menubar and want to keep it and the blog look so i am stuck trying to things look somewhat right.

    i did some digging and came across a thread (https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/298354) and tried some of it but i cannot get it to work properly. any ideas on what i am missing/have screwed up would be greatly appreciated.

    Use the Firebug plugin for Firefox to examine the Memphis site’s XHTML structure and CSS properties.

    Then start copying and pasting styles into the theme’s style.css and page template files until you get the look you want.

    Update… so after much frustration in trying to add a column to the sliding door theme i finally just took the menubar and threw it into a three column theme. as for firebug… i have used it to look at some of the stuff but as i have said my advisers want the site to look similar yet different so im probably going to just use just the color schemes. thanks for the help though!

    ok, good luck. Can you make this thread as resolved?
