Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Change header in this themeYes, you are correct, you will have to upload your image somewhere. You could even hypothetically upload it to Flickr or Photobucket if you wish.
Are you familiar with uploading images to a webhost? Basically the easiest way to do this would be to download an FTP client like FileZilla and enter in your ftp information. Once you do that, make a directory/folder called “images” and then drag the image you want from your desktop to the “images” folder you just made.
Once you do this, you have to figure out what the link is. If you were to make an “images” folder in your hosting, then your link would be:
<img src=”https://www.nameofyoursite.com/images/nameofyourimage.gif”>
the image needs to be 901×150pixels and a gif it looks like. If you want to make it a jpg, you need to make sure your file name says that (replace gif with jpg). Does that make sense?
From there, you should be good!
Hope that helps!

In reply to: Positioning TaglineHi there,
I think I may have a solution – you may have to add your own <div> to that link. That’s usually a quick, easy way to fix finicky things.
Here’s my idea:
Instead of:
<div id=”header”>
<h1>Media Visions Reports</h1>
<h2>Media trade reports by Ken Judah Freed<text align: right></h2>
</div>Try this:
<div id=”header”>
<h1>Media Visions Reports</h1></div>
<div id=”tagline”>
<h2>Media trade reports by Ken Judah Freed<text align: right></h2>
</div>Then in your CSS, add:
#tagline {
position: absolute;
left: 740px;
top: 183px;
}This may or may not resolve your problem, but I thought you might give it a shot!
Hope that helps!

In reply to: Identify the CSS for these piecesHi there,
You may have already figured this stuff out, but here’s what I came up with:
Post Title: h2
Text on bottom: You figured this out it looks like but its #footer p
Text on right column: #sidebar
Hope that helps!

In reply to: Sidebar positioning troubleSo I dug through some old posts and I think I figured out the solution:
You have to make a table where all your main content sits in one column and the rest sits in another:
Go to your Main Index Template and put your narrow column, navigation, etc (everything up to the sidebar.php) in one column, and then put the sidebar in the next column. You want to start the table after your header and end it before your footer. Does that make sense?
Here’s my code markup if it helps:
<?php get_header(); ?><table align=”center” cellspacing=”0″ cellpadding=”40″>
<tr>
<td><span id=”content” class=”narrowcolumn”><?php if (have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?><span class=”post” id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>”><br><h2>” rel=”bookmark” title=”<?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></h2><small><?php the_time(‘j F Y’) ?></small><div class=”entry”>
<?php the_content(‘read the rest of this entry »’); ?>
</div><p class=”postmetadata”><div class=”category”>posted in <?php the_category(‘, ‘); ?> | <?php comments_popup_link(‘no comments’, ‘1 comment’, ‘% comments’); ?><br></p>
</span><?php endwhile; ?>
<div class=”navigation”>
<div class=”alignleft”><?php next_posts_link(‘« previous entries’) ?></div>
<div class=”alignright”><?php previous_posts_link(‘next entries »’) ?></div>
</div><?php else : ?>
<h2 class=”center”>not found</h2>
<p class=”center”>sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.</p>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/searchform.php”); ?><?php endif; ?>
</span>
</td>
<td valign=”top”>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php get_footer(); ?>Hope that helps!!!
