CSS and Image question

    I have two questions…

    1. How can I add a space in between my slideshow and the first post?

    I inserted a slide show which is only one image right now on my home page. (Delicious Salsas)

    I want to add space before my first post. If I add a margin in the #content area it moves the slideshow down not the post. I also want it only on the home page not on all the other pages the post will appear.

    2. I am using a custom category as a menu (navigation).. When I click on the page the post entry appears but has no image. How can I get it to have a image as well?

    For example I have on the home page a dessert. The image comes out and all is great. If i press continue reading the whole post comes out just fine. The problem is when I click on the tab desserts the same post comes up but just a excerpt with NO image.

    Thank you all in advance… I really do appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions.

    1. What you want to do is to add some bottom margin to the slideshow. You can either edit the CSS in the slideshow plugin (which will get overwritten the first time you update) or you can add it to the theme style.css file (which will get overwritten first time you update the theme) or you can create a child theme and then put the following change in the style.css file of the child (won’t get overwritten by updates).

    .meteor-slides {
margin-bottom: 40px;
}

    Edit the 40px value to give you the spacing you desire.

    Actually I see you have a child theme already. You might have to add !important to the bottom margin declaration.

    2. Twenty ten by design shows only a summary on category, archive and tags pages, and the summary does not include images or any HTML formatting. It is all stripped out. I’m afraid I’m woefully lacking in PHP skills, but it is going to take a little editing on the PHP file for category pages.
