    Hi! I want to know on how to make a box like a table which will show every post I make. And in that box, I will be putting the WP-Email, WP-Print, Wp-Ratings and the social bookmarking sites.
    And it should be aligned or wrapped to text on the right.
    I’m thinking about this box (sorry for the drawing)

  • Hi! I want to know on how to make a box like a table which will show every post I make.

    To change your layout, you use css (in your theme’s style.css) to style tags. Here are some common tags you’ll need to know about:

    div p ul li h1 h2

    Also how do I put the links(in my post) that would navigate the readers to the next post

    Ok ok, I figured out the next and previous post link and I changed my mind about the box. So here’s another problem:

    <?php previous_post('&laquo; &laquo; %', 'Previous Entry: ', 'yes'); ?>|<?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> |<?php if(function_exists('wp_email')) { email_link(); } ?> |<?php next_post('% &raquo; &raquo; ', 'Next Entry: ', 'yes'); ?>

    That is my code for the Previous Links and Next Links, I also added the WP-Email Wp-Ratings.My question is how come it doesn’t line up to a single line?

    Here’s how it looks like:
    <<Previous Entry: WordPress Entry
    |Email
    |Rating
    |Next Entry:Title >>

    I wanna see it like
    << Previous Entry: Title | Email This Post | Rating | NextEntry: >>
    (as a single line only)

    and how to put a horizontal bar below it?
    and is there like a paragraph break since it’s jamming up my theme. I wanna put the paragraph break below the navigation (previous links and next) so that it will not displace my pictures below.
