More interestingly, as I said in the OP, if I look at the page using the WP Customise option from the WP Admin system, the page with the testimonial does display the sidebar widgets.

Thank Steve. No, I’m not. I’ve narrowed it down to a problem with Sola Testimonials. Whenever I display a testimonial in the main body of the page, none of the widgets in the sidebar display.

I thought this might be missing brackets or poorly formatted CSS, but, if this was the case I’d have thought that the <ul> of widgets in the sidebar would still be populated, but, the source code for the page shows the <ul> is empty of items.

[moderated: please put HTML in backticks so it doesn’t break page formatting. thanks]

You should be able to change the background by changing the image link in your first CSS block named body:

background-image: url(‘../../../Content/Statik/Grafik/bg.jpg’);

body
{
    color: #1C1600;
    background: #D1CCC1;
    background-image: url('name-of-new-bground.jpg');
    background-size: cover;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    z-index: 1;
    margin: 0;
}

Have you tried to a cmd and refresh (mac) or a shift and refresh (windows) to forse the browser to reload any modified CSS.

Browsers cache the CSS which can result in recent changes to the CSS not being applied to the page as the browser still uses the old cached version of the CSS file.

If you have changed the background and other elements via CSS, this may be the reason why the changes or not appearing.

I’ve just done this again to check it out.

I go to my post that already has an image in it. I click on that image and it display the Edit Image and Delete Image icons. I click the Edit Image icon.

The Edit Image dialog box is displayed and near the bottom of the dialog box it says Link URL and it has three buttons, None, Current Link and Link To Image.

I press None, and the I enter my URL in the Link URL field and hit the update button at the bottom of the screen and the dialog box closes and I return to the Edit Post screen.

When I click the main blue update button to update the post on the site, the link is overwritten and just points to a post containing only the image.

Here is another example of this slideshow style blog post where the post is made up of a dozen pages and you scroll thorugh thtme using the next and previous buttons.

Is there any way to achieve this on a wordpress self hosted blog?
