Works like a charm! So So SO SO SOOOO pleased with this new version. I was using the “Auto” image management setting because it was just easier for a non-programmer like me, and had some issue with updating images, loading new posts, etc. Tried out this puppy on my site and it fixed every issue and is 1000% easier to use, and with the “featured image” auto image management feature I can link it easier to my posts.

I also agree, UI is much easier to navigate, and it seems to just be leagues beyond for someone like me. Made a great plugin even better

Bravo, and thank you.

@shaun, it worked out great, but I tweaked it a bit and put this in instead:

#nav ul li{
	float:none;
	left: -40px;
}

The position absolute made the submenu never disappear because it had a left:-9999 property to hide it from sight when not in use. But it moved the menu back to where it should be, and I can do without the recent posts in the sidebar.

About that span 16 issue, do I just remove the sidebar completely from those pages where I decided they are better off not there?

Again, thanks for the help.

I am using a custom theme based off of the Twitter bootstrap, so there are a few tweaks here or there. I had a friend who knows WordPress and some css give me a hand with what I wanted, and this is the only issue I’ve run into so far. Everything else seems to run like clockwork. Like I said, not a programmer, so I’m not sure what he changed compared to the original.

About the span 16 bit….I changed that when I was messing with the pages he had created to make the content full page and guess I didn’t do anything about the dynamic sidebar. It used to be span 11 and then span 5, but i suppose I changed them both to span 16 instead of what I should have.

It is def the css that is the issue, I have been playing with changing the div class and styles to try and make a particular css for the header section, and have made some progress on that front but can’t seem to get it just right. Here is the site I’ve gotten this info from: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9083842/unlink-a-css-stylesheet-from-specific-page-div-tag

I tried to customize the header with the code you had above, but it seemed to make everything wonky. I am sure I just did it wrong. Here is the part I replaced with your code after creating a secondary stylesheet to reference. Because I am not a programmer, I don’t understand what a child theme is, or what I replace exactly. I usually do this by trial and error, hence the span 16 bit above. what do I do, after creating a secondary stylesheet, to replace this code with your idea?

<link href="<?php bloginfo( 'stylesheet_url' ); ?>" rel="stylesheet">

Thanks for the help folks.

Thanks, will do.

Thanks Shaun for the reply, I tried to add the header prefix to the table elements at the bottom of my styles.css that I had originally removed, but no dice. If that had worked it would have probably solved it all.

I have been inspecting the elements that are messing up, and it is something with how WordPress is displaying its ul sub-menu, or maybe even ul. I don’t want to go around chopping up more css without really knowing why it is there in the first place. I also don’t know why a table would have effected how these lists are displaying, but it did.

And sorry about not giving out my website, I assumed WordPress would have displayed it somewhere. It is:

I am specifically trying to fix the positioning of the dynamic sidebar listing of the recent posts widget, as well as the positioning of the submenu in the navigation bar under portfolio.

Any and all help is appreciated.
