I see that nobody has responded to this question. I have the same issue. I want my page to look like a static web page, and not a blog post. I was able to change it to a static page, but it is still inserting the “Posted on March 20, 2013 by Admin” message at the top of the static page. How do I make that go away?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Oops, I messed up that link. My blog is as follows:

Bump!

BTW, can you also tell me the code for the gray once you find it. Thanks.

That worked. Thank you so much!!!!! ??

There is an option for a text widget. But I didn’t know what that was.

So, if I just paste the ad copy into the text widget, are you saying that should solve the problem?

That worked. Thank you very much. ??

What do you mean by “Comment out /*line-height:#px;*/ “? Are you telling me to remove that line?

Also, when you tell me to do something to the “h3”, can you be a little more simplistic in your explanation? Assume that I don’t know what an “h3” is (I don’t).

Please give an explanation (preferably detailed with exactly what line of code to add and where to add it) that is simple enough for someone with no knowledge of HTML or CSS to follow. Thanks.

Ummmm, what is “firebug”? What does it do?

I am not a programmer. Can you give a more step-by-step explanation of the problem and how I can fix it? Thanks.

I don’t know if you solved your problem yet, but I had the exact same problem. The ads go in the ads.php section. Don’t try to up them in sidebar.php.

All you have to do is copy your adsense code into ads.php. Just make sure the ads are 125×125. It will automatically fill in the preset boxes. You will need to delete the jpg files that are currently filling the boxes. Also, if you add more than 3 125×125 ads, it simply wraps around and starts a new row. This is a really great feature because it allows you to add more ads.

Take a look at my new blog at MMAChalet.com, and you will see what I did.

Hope this helps.

Bump. Help!!!

I just thought of an idea that might work. If I create new image files to replace the existing ones, it might accomplish what I am trying to do. The new image files would be black, the color that I want to replace the existing color with. However, this seems like the long and tedious solution. Is there a way to do it like I originally envisioned? Can I simply delete the reference to the image files and replace them with color commands?

Ahhhhh, so you’re saying that instead of colors, the background is actually images. Well that would explain why I couldn’t change it. I tried changing every line in the Stylesheet where I saw a color, but I was only able to change the text colors. None of them seemed to change the background colors.

If the backgrounds are actually images, how do I make the stylesheet disregard the images and use a color instead? Do I delete all of the lines that reference the images and replace them with colors? If that is the case, what would the code look like?

Actually, I just played with adding the java script in the ads.php file and in the sidebar file until I got it to work. In case anyone else has this problem in the future, the script goes in the ads.php file. replace the text about ads.jpg. It will then show up in the preset ad boxes.

Thank you for your help. However, I don’t quite understand. Do I insert my adsense code into “ads.php” or “sidebar.php”, or both? Also, exactly where do I insert it in these files so that it will appear inside of the ad boxes that are provided?

Sorry if I sound like a novice, but I am. ??
