In reply to: Suddenly all pictures on my media are not showing.I have never been able to access your website, fashiongentrix.com.
Every time I have clicked on a link, any link, it has returned a “Server not found” message.
This has been over a period of several months.
I can only access the Google cache.
I’m a bit puzzled, and I would like to see your site! ??

In reply to: Authors Can Not Embed Video???Authors have never been able to embed video on my site. I use the EasyTube plugin and it works fine (at least I think so, I can’t remember the last time an author tried to post a YouTube video).

In reply to: Sideblog: excerpt length – 2 options only?I’d like to know the answer to this as well. Actually, I would be okay with the excerpt option as is, except that when I apply it there are no links in the sideblog post in the sidebar, (the links are only visible (and clickable) if you actually go to the single post page), which means I can’t use the excerpt. I have tried using the more tag but it does not work.
I’m using version 3.8 of the Sideblog plugin.
I think this plugin will work for what you need:

In reply to: Posting in second column. No widgets, just posts!You could just put in a link to posts in that category:

In reply to: Only posts in uncategorized category displaying on front pageI’m sorry, I don’t use that theme myself so I don’t know. This page shows a screencap of what the Streamline Theme Options page should look like:

In reply to: Posting in second column. No widgets, just posts!I haven’t used SidePOSTS, but I use Sideblog, and it does support pictures. And posts can be of any length. You can choose if you want to display the content or just the title, date, etc.
I use an older version of Sideblog, so it may not be exactly the same, but in the Sideblog Options, it lists all your categories, and you just have to check the ones that you want to appear in the Sideblog. (You have to have already created the categories before that.)

In reply to: Posting in second column. No widgets, just posts!If I understand your question, you can use this plugin to post in a separate area and not have those posts appear in the main content area:

In reply to: Only posts in uncategorized category displaying on front pageThe Streamline theme has a “Homepage Featured” option that lets you select which post categories you want featured on the home page. Uncategorized is likely the default. You have to select more categories if you want them to appear.

In reply to: Publishing a post that doens’t show up in feedTo exclude a post from feeds, create a category for that post and use this code in your functions file (if the category is 39, for instance):
function myFilter($query) { if ($query->is_feed) { $query->set('cat','-39'); } return $query; } add_filter('pre_get_posts','myFilter');
To exclude it from the front page, you can fudge the date, as you suggested. Or you could use the sideblog plugin, which will exclude posts from the main page, but they will still display as individual posts or in the category page. (With the sideblog plugin you can also exclude a category from feeds with just a checkmark.)

In reply to: No space between paragraphsI had this problem (with a different theme) and it went away when I corrected the validation errors on the site. In the meantime I used the Text Control plugin.

In reply to: CSS links questionLinks are represented by the letter a in your CSS file. Depending on your theme, it might look something like this:

In reply to: testing new theme?I have two WordPress blogs on the same domain, each with their own folder and database. I use one of these blogs for testing and working on my themes, and it is blocked with robots.txt and set to private with WordPress.
This is what I would like to do. I’m wondering if there’s a way to install the content (posts and pages) of my blog to the test blog, so I can see the new theme with my actual content.
(Could I just do a “Restore” via cpanel and “restore” my backup of wrdp1 to wrdp3?)
