take the nav tag code out lines 61-64 in my display

why would this not work?

well, not quite what I am asking. I did not have the internet for a few weekes and when using the local wordress test system, it really slows down looking for stuff online, can’t find and continues on very slowly. I am not moving wordress or anything like that, just using it without the internet connection.

seems to me that if you want to remove the title on a page, look at where it is generated, probably in page.php and single.php, or in index.php. should be fairly simple, use Firebug in FF to identify the specific code generating the page title.

additionally, do install a child theme of this theme, lots of tutorials around on how to do this, and make any changes in the child theme. i.e. create a page.php or single.php template file in the child theme and only change it in the child theme to avoid blowing up your theme when the parent theme is changed and automatically updated.

aha it does live

A first draft of the Twenty Thirteen theme…

seems to me, you could generate a custom menu of the sub-item menu links and then use that on a second line by totally dropping the main menu items out of that menu.

if you want a different menu for different pages, then you could use if conditions to display them differently depending on the page being viewed.
you can use if conditions based on the name of the page being displayed e.g. About, using the is_page() tag.

outside people cannot see your local posts/pages/themes/sites

as well, modified versions of posts/pages ate not retrieveable, once you change it, that’s it, the old versions are gone, unless you have a backup of your data base

ok interesting, where can I read some documentation on this??

Al

a wordpress theme must have an index.php and style.css files, otherwise it is not a WordPress theme, period. looks like you have an HTML template, not a wordpress theme.

Al

just took another look at the demo on IE8, top part of screen including the menu looks OK, the bottom part which showing the frontape widgets is not shown OK, widgets are listed wertically, should be listed horizontally, maybe this is why the new code has not been published yet

Al

tried an experiment with the modified twentytwelve code. created a Home and Blog page, then created the content on the new Home page with the 2 front page widgets and used the Frontpage template for the Home page. Menu shows as a horizontal menu OK, content shows OK, but the content of the 2 frontpage widgets is shown on the right side of the screen, one over top of the other, yuck!!

Al

that should be “shows a horizontal menu”

Al

Rocky,

thta site a horizontal menu for me

Al

I thought they were removing all those old themes, but I guess not

Al

OK that may explain it, will look at that. so in the end, it is done only with CSS, and the fact that content_width is set to some values that seem to relate to the content width size only throws you off, especially when they used a name like content_width.

but, as I said above, this theme sets the width of the content area ($content_width) depending on 0, 1, or 2 sidebars and seems to use the values set by the specification of $content_width in functions.php (1176, 869, or 562). because it is varaible depending on the # of sidebars, it cannot be set in css or so it would appear to me.

so that is why I am asking the question? how does this work? just trying to figure out how it works so that if I want to use it, I can understand it. right now I don’t understand how the page shows full page width if there are no sidebars, displays 3/4 page if there is one sidebar, and half the page if there are 2 sidebars. it is a neat process that may be usable if I can figure out how it works.
