Did you try checking here? https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/135564?replies=77

I don’t see where that is in my code unless you meant <li class="page_item">… I tried removing that and it still didn’t work. Thank you for responding though, anymore suggestions?

In your wordpress admin, click on options>reading…I think that’s what you are referring to.

Was just making sure I did it correctly.

Yes it is set to UTC time and I live in Central time zone. It doesn’t give me an option to change this on this menu. So i read below and it said “Times in the weblog should differ by: __ hours (Your timezone offset, for example -6 for Central Time.)”…So I put -6 in that spot and it fixed my date. Is there another way of changing it?
And thank you (again) you’ve been very helpful and patient with me. =)

Thank you for posting that link. (the only reason I posted my entire code was because the person who was trying to help last night asked me to). I removed my calender code which was this….

<li>
      <h2 class="sidebartitle"><?php get_calendar(); ?></h2>
       <ul class="list-calender">
      </ul>

and now my site validates again. Could you please tell me the correct calender code? Also should I start a new post since all those codes are in the way?

Sorry about the previous post, I didn’t realize it recognized my code above as html, so I will try again to repost my sidebar code…But since last night I’ve managed to get rid of most of the errors I was getting when I tried to validate my code, but I still have 2 errors that I don’t know how to fix. Here is my sidebar code, any help is appeciated.

<div id="sidebar">
<ul>

  <?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>

    <li>
      <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>

    <?php /* Menu for subpages of current page (copied from K2 theme) */
    global $notfound;
    if (is_page() and ($notfound != '1')) {
        $current_page = $post->ID;
        while($current_page) {
            $page_query = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT ID, post_title, post_status, post_parent FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE ID = '$current_page'");
            $current_page = $page_query->post_parent;
        }
        $parent_id = $page_query->ID;
        $parent_title = $page_query->post_title;

        // if ($wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = '$parent_id' AND post_status != 'attachment'")) {
        if ($wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = '$parent_id' AND post_type != 'attachment'")) {
    ?>

    <li>
      <h2 class="sidebartitle"><?php echo $parent_title; ?> <?php _e('Subpages'); ?></h2>

Oh yea, the part of the above code that is in the bold print is the part that I edited.

Ok, thanks for alarming me about the widgets.php file, I won’t touch that. Ok so I went back to the widgets tab in my wordpress and dragged and dropped all the widgets I included before…So now I am back to my default sidebar. I chose to take away the <?php _e(‘Archives’); ?> (as you suggested) and added my image code and that worked perfectly. So my question now is how do I add the stuff back to my sidebar i.e. “calender”, “text1”, etc…without using the widgets? I’m guessing I have to manually put it in sidebar.php somewhere, but I’m not sure exactly where and I don’t know which codes to use. Any suggestions?

Thank you for responding. Here is the code for my sidebar.php

<div id=”sidebar”>

<?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>

• <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/searchform.php’); ?>

<?php /* Menu for subpages of current page (copied from K2 theme) */
global $notfound;
if (is_page() and ($notfound != ‘1’)) {
$current_page = $post->ID;
while($current_page) {
$page_query = $wpdb->get_row(“SELECT ID, post_title, post_status, post_parent FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE ID = ‘$current_page'”);
$current_page = $page_query->post_parent;
}
$parent_id = $page_query->ID;
$parent_title = $page_query->post_title;

// if ($wpdb->get_results(“SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = ‘$parent_id’ AND post_status != ‘attachment'”)) {
if ($wpdb->get_results(“SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = ‘$parent_id’ AND post_type != ‘attachment'”)) {
?>

• <h2 class=”sidebartitle”><?php echo $parent_title; ?> <?php _e(‘Subpages’); ?></h2>
  <ul class=”list-page”>
  <?php wp_list_pages(‘sort_column=menu_order&title_li=&child_of=’. $parent_id); ?>

<?php } } ?>

• <h2 class=”sidebartitle”><?php _e(‘Categories’); ?></h2>
  <ul class=”list-cat”>
  <?php wp_list_cats(‘sort_column=name&optioncount=1&hierarchical=0’); ?>
• <h2 class=”sidebartitle”><img src=”images/archive.gif” alt=”archive”/><?php _e(‘Archives’); ?></h2>
  <ul class=”list-archives”>
  <?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’); ?>
• <h2 class=”sidebartitle”><?php _e(‘Links’); ?></h2>
  <ul class=”list-blogroll”>
  <?php get_links(‘-1’, ‘
• ‘, ‘

‘, ‘
‘, FALSE, ‘id’, FALSE, FALSE, -1, FALSE); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

As you can see, I added an image code for the title archives but it didn’t cover up the word “archives”..it pushed it to the side. How can I fix that?

Also I noticed that the sidebar.php is only editable when I use the default sidebar that comes with the theme. So when I use widgets to add to my sidebar, my “archive.gif” disappears. So I’m assuming that I should edit the widgets.php? and if so, where exactly should I put in the image code? Thanks for reading this.

Did u try looking here? https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/135564?replies=70

Go to sidebar.php in your current theme, either open it in wordpress or use an outside editor such as notepad (or whatever you use to edit)

I reinstalled my wordpress in the public_html folder and it works fine now, I still couldn’t get wordpress2.3 fully functional, but I have the one right before that. Thanks for all your help.
