Thank you, HandySolo, for your instructions and for the plugin. Yes, I’ll want all posts to show in each specified category. . . just an excerpt of each, though, as per my request in this thread.

I’ll report back later as to whether or not I managed to do what you’ve instructed me to do. Thanks much, again!

Under the big heading Category in the sidebar is the list of categories. And, within each category is/are the posts that I’ve designated to go there.

Okay, when I click on a specific category the entire post will show. I would like for only an ‘excerpt’ of each post to show for the viewer. Then, if viewer wanted to read more, viewer would need to click on the title of post to read entire post.

I apologize for any confusion perhaps due to my not previously using the correct words for what I want.

Take a look if you want at https://www.manifestinguniverse.com
(new blog, or rather ‘starting over’ after 4 months)

Thank you!

HandySolo. . . Is this what you are asking for?

‘Iris’ theme files
Stylesheet
Popup Comments
Footer
Header
Comments
Sidebar
Main Index Template

Thanks,
Charlsie

Found it!!! This was missing. . .
<?php endwhile; else: ?>

It belonged just 2 lines above the line the error message referenced.

I had looked and looked previously. Until I got good direction from each of you I just could not see it.

Now, I am back in business and can go get some much needed rest! Thank you each so very much! Charlsie

Will do. . . Thank you all! Until tomorrow, Charlsie

Yes, I did lots of tweaking. . . well, removing of some things and adding other things.

What I am going to do is compare what is on the original theme index file to what I now have showing in the index file in cpanel. (tomorrow!)

Too tired to attempt the process of creating new file and uploading and such.

I thank each of you for taking the time to assist me with this. With the bits of info you each have provided I believe I’ll be able to figure it out.

Thanks, again. . . Charlsie

Would it be okay for me to just give you the link directly to the file. . . here? Don’t know if that violates any rules, so wanted to ask first. I’m not tech savy enought to be renaming files, and such. . . perhaps if my mind was not very, very tired about now!

My printer is broken so I can’t print off the original template prior my making changes, and then compare. I can switch window to window, though, and start comparing.

doodlebee,
The line you reference wasn’t deleted. Thank you, though. Any more possibles?
Since error is supposedly on line 85 that puts it near the end of content. . . maybe 3 or 4 lines up from bottom.

Thank you. I started with the final line of google adsense and think the error is somewhere below this line.

Thanks much faustina, moshu and vkaryl for your responses.

I went over to pastebin.com, pasted in the info. and hit send. The message does not go anywhere. I noticed there is a note in the sidebar that there are ‘problems’ at the site.

Or, perhaps I should have done more steps than what I did?

Would it be possible for me to paste here and then delete after problem is resolved? Actually I could probably just paste the last 6 lines or so of the content since the error is on line 85. Would that be okay?

Thank you, Charlsie

Moshu, I have found the subject index file in cpanel of host server. So, it would be best to work with that, because previously I changed several things re: this index file. So, to put a ‘new’ copy of this would probably not allow blog to go back to how I had it. Like said before, I can paste it here for someone to take a ‘look see’. It is probably something really simple. . . I personally don’t have a clue!
Thanks you. . . Charlsie

I’ve gone into my host database and was able to open the index file. Would it work for me to copy and paste the info. here. . . maybe that would be too much? Reason I ask is because I’m not sure I know how to download it. Please let me know and thank you much for your response.

doodlebee, with the info. you gave me I was ‘finally’ able to get things lined back up properly. Wheee! Thanks!
All I want to do is to remove the ‘comments’ feature. Don’t want ‘comments’ to show on my static page nor on the posts. Can anyone please tell me which file to remove, and where it is located? Thank you much.

Thank you doodlebee. I am somewhat lost as to what you have written. (not a ‘techie’ here) However, it does provide me with a starting point as to how to possibly correct the problem. I’ve not done anything previously to the index.php file. I have previously deleted a few things from the theme template. . . trying to delete certain features (comments, date, time, etc) Maybe if I put everything back the problem will correct itself. Thanks, again.

Moshu, thank you. Link is: https://www.manifestinguniverse.com
click on either ‘categories’ or ‘archives’ to see how the two test posts appear on page (from left to right instead of one following the other) Thank, again.
