ok – thanks… plugin’s activated!

no… i’m looking at it here:
https://jayjerome.com/wp-admin/

would adding something like this make it work?

<?php if ($sub_pages <> "" ){?>

<ul><?php echo $sub_pages; ?></ul>

citewurker, I think the problem with removing the template tags that generate the title and description is that it makes your site less accessible to text readers and search engine spiders.

Since I posted the question above, I found this technique in the codex to move the css tags and contents off the web page:

h1 {position: absolute;
font-size: 0;
left: -1000px; }

I tried it, took out all the other code, and it seems to work OK…

here’s the url:

well, i guess this is one of those problems that takes too much brain-energy to solve, so I’ll put it on the back-burner for now…
thanks for the input…

thanks for the suggestion — i’ll play around with the html code and see if i can get it to work… (though i seem to remember that iframe only works on selected browsers)

thanks for the feedback, vkaryl–
i found a solution with <div> configurations, using your ‘transparent’ suggestion…

your blog sites are attractive… the ‘whispers’ especially nice

the ‘<img src=”wp-content/.. etc”> worked…

thanks for the help.

Kafkaesqui: that’s exactly what I needed. Thanks so much for the brilliant code!!!!!

onocrotalus,

Thanks for the suggestion, but I think it’s going to be cumbersome to use the ‘exclude statement.’

First, I have to create a custom page template for each ‘special’ page I want to display and add the exclude statement to it. And then go and create the page in the administration section.

Although I’m planning on about a dozen ‘special’ pages, if I only had to write the exclude statement one time for each new template, that’s manageable.

But once I set up those pages, each time I create new pages won’t I have to go back to each template and update the ‘exclude statement’again?

That may be too high-maintenance. What I’d really like to find is code I can add to the default page.php file that says something like: “when a page is displayed, only show it’s title and sub-pages, ignore all others.”

Is that feasible?

thanks for the info!!

If that’s the case, will the php Gods vindictively object if I delete all those lines in my theme’s sidebar, and replace them with graphic png headings and/or images instead?

ok, thanks for clearing that up for me — i appreciate the help…

OK, thanks… I see what you mean. There were about 15 lines of ‘do somethings’ between it and the ‘is home’ statement — but it does follow it, as you said.

Thanks for the info.
I tried WebDeveloper for FF — worked like a charm!!
Appreciate the help…
