In reply to: Inserting a row of photos in a postI think from now on I’ll scale the photos from the scale box that appears over the photo once it’s added to the page. I’ll have to read more about the editing options in the upload/insert process. I was changing the size there but apparently it wasn’t taking. I’ve resized them now and they look fine. “Back to the books”, so to speak. Thanks for all your help.

In reply to: Inserting a row of photos in a postThese photos were originally saved at 340p(wide) x 288px. The ones I just added I scaled down to 288px(wide) each and they still stack. The second one was inserted at the cursor just to the right of the first. It seems like it’s refusing to put them side by side due to space constraints. Would it be possible that I can’t use the 690 pix column width as a maximum width? Yesterdays images were approximately 220px (wide) each and they obviously fit. I pulled that main column width (690px) out of the code listing and assumed that it would reflect the subtraction of the left side bar width from the total page width.

In reply to: Inserting a row of photos in a postI’m not sure what you mean. There are two rows of three photos on yesterdays post. They worked fine. The ones that didn’t work were on “Tomato Patience” post. I removed them because they weren’t working. The two I tried to add to the “Tomato Patience” post kept stacking to the left rather than lining up next to each other over the text. I’ll go back and edit today’s post and publish it with the stacked images.

In reply to: Inserting a row of photos in a postThanks esmi. Thought that might be necessary. Here is the address. The posts are on the home page and the latest one is the one I’m trying to add photos to. Yesterdays post is there as well.

In reply to: How do you handle custom template files with Child Themes?Hi Mark and Six Hours,
I’ve been working on creating a child of twentyeleven using the import style.css command as described in the codex material. Finally succeeded in getting it loaded and activated. I am a little confused (probably a lot) but my understanding was that the child theme would reflect all of the content of the parent (because of the import command) except for the new style.css which would be different according to my changes. Is that correct? When I go to the editor in the child theme there is no code for the rest of the blog and only the style.css file which does not open. Do I actually have to do an import all of the files related to the parent or copy and paste to get them into the child?
Thanks for any help you can offer.Forum: Fixing WordPress
