In reply to: List last 5 posts of a certain category? Help, please!Hmm. Unfortunately, the query_posts tag isn’t going to work in this case. I need it to do exactly what this tag does:
get_archives('postbypost', '5', 'html')
EXCEPT I need it to display the post archives only for a certain category. Whereas the query_post tag gets the actual post data, the get_archives tag retrieves posts’ titles (which then have links to their respective single page). I need something like the get_archives tag.The site I’m working on has a two-column design, and I need to fit this in the right column (in other words, it needs to be in a lista€??again, like the get_archives tag).

In reply to: Awesome New DesignHmm. I guess I don’t see the humor in it, either. It’s just kind of random.
So what’d “Damage” mean by that? That he didn’t think it needed anything? (Sorry, I’m a little slow…)

Damage: More cowbell? Please explain ??Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: Awesome New DesignThanks… I’m not sure. I might (emphasis on might) come up with a variant on the design and release it for free or something. I dunno.

In reply to: Current Page Questions…Thanks for replying so quickly, Avenir.
Unfortunately, I tried formating both page_item and current_page_item, and nothing happened. Any ideas?

In reply to: Three Column Issues in CSSI don’t know if this is of any help, but I have made a three-column layout for a wordpress blog once, and this is what I’ve figured out what has to happen on the css side of things:
For the div id you want in the center (I’m guessing that’ll be your blog content) give it a margin: auto attribute.
For the two side columns, make them not as wide as the main part, and give them each float:left, and float: right attributes, respectively.Hope this helps,
a€??Andrew

In reply to: CSS Problem with OSX/FirefoxLooks like your #content takes up too much space, thus pushing the #menu down at the bottom, either that or you need to make the #rap’s background white, instead of black (I haven’t really looked into your code, so I wouldn’t know wether or not I’m using the right class names.

In reply to: CSS New Blog Design = Very, Very CoolNo, PHP isn’t exactly my thing, so I’m not the person to ask ??
I wish there was something you could do in the css that would say “if a link points to the page that’s already loaded, format it like this…”
Maybe that’ll show up in CSS3, eh?

In reply to: CSS New Blog Design = Very, Very CoolSo you want to know why the “blog” tab looks different than the other tabs (i.e., home, about, etc.)? Actually, it’s just basic HTMl, and I got it from:
https://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/horizontal05.htm
I just assigned an “active” li id to the tab on the current page. So on my blog, the blog tab has the active id, and on the home page, the home tab has the active id. There’s no php involved, and the navigation doesn’t tie into wordpress whatsoever.
Thanks for the compliment, and hope this helps.Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: CSS New Blog Design = Very, Very CoolThanks for spotting that out, it’s now fixed.

In reply to: CSS New Blog Design = Very, Very CoolLorelle –
Check out the source code of the site, and you should be able to figure it out. For the tabbed-navbar on the site, I just slapped a few links together and formatted them with CSSa€??so “Home”, “About”, etc. is just something I added to my index.php, and isn’t a part of wordpress. For the horizontal links and categories menu, I made a separate class dropped in the PHP code that called the links and categories and in the CSS I made the list style inline. Check out the source code and the css file, and you should be able to figure it out!Rori – Aww c’mon, everyone likes the color orange! ??
