can you change the status of this ticket to resolved?

How are you adding thumbnails to your posts, by custom fields?

To move the sidebar to the right, go into the theme’s style.css file and change

#main {
	background:#FFF url(img/background/main_shadow1.gif) top repeat;
	width:605px;
	padding:13px 15px 15px;
	float:right;
	overflow:hidden;
}

to

#main {
	background:#FFF url(img/background/main_shadow1.gif) top repeat;
	width:605px;
	padding:13px 15px 15px;
	float:left;
	overflow:hidden;
}

and

#sidebar {
	background:#F7F7F7 url(img/background/sidebar_bg.gif) top repeat;
	width:300px;
	float:left;
	font-size:95%;
	line-height:145%;
	overflow:hidden;
	padding-top:8px;
}

to

#sidebar {
	background:#F7F7F7 url(img/background/sidebar_bg.gif) top repeat;
	width:300px;
	float:right;
	font-size:95%;
	line-height:145%;
	overflow:hidden;
	padding-top:8px;
}

Where exactly are the child pages supposed to appear?

Go to line 210 in the custom.css file and change the hex value for the color

.custom dl#comment_list dt .comment_author, .custom dl#comment_list dt a {
color:#252525;
}

Did you also backup the uploads directory? Can you browser your site directories via FTP? If so, go to that directory and see if the image is there.

The post probably has a custom field associated with that image location…look through your index.php or home.php file for something like:

<?php $meta_values = get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single); ?>

where $key is the name of the custom field it is looking for.

add these two rules to your custom.css file (be sure to use the correct hex value for the color):

li.widget_tag_cloud a {
	color: #HEX_COLOR_CODE;
	text-decoration: none;
}
li.widget_tag_cloud a:hover {
	color: #HEX_COLOR_CODE;
	text-decoration: underline;
}

To fix just this image, click on the HTML (as opposed to Visual) tab and change:

<img height="225" width="300" alt="Pandar n me" src="https://pandaandpenguin.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/pandar.jpg" title="Pandar n me" class="alignright size-full wp-image-12"/>

to

<img height="225" width="300" alt="Pandar n me" src="https://pandaandpenguin.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/pandar.jpg" title="Pandar n me" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12" style="padding: 0pt; float: none;" />

for a more permanent fix go into the style.css file (line 371) and replace

.aligncenter,
div.aligncenter {
   display: block;
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
}

with

.aligncenter,
div.aligncenter {
   display: block;
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
   padding: 0;
   float: none;
}

You can copy the theme’s index.php file and rename it single.php…then start editing

>hmmm… not having any luck. That doesn’t move the title either. (I should have noticed that you use different comment marks for css.) ;-0
— it’s not moving because you don’t have a value for margin-top…add something like margin-top: 50px;

>I had tried previously to just remove the image from the post
— are you removing the image from the post body or deleting the image form your blog?

Did you edit the index.php file?

If so, try downloading the theme again, rename index.php to single.php, and add the new single.php file to your theme.

AFAIK RSS is a subset of xml

you can check for a valid RSS feed at https://validator.w3.org/feed/

>Isn’t that only for people who actually comment?
–nope, it’s the post’s comment RSS feed

for example:

https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/10/08/publicize-twitter/feed/
https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/10/18/display-your-photos-in-style/feed/
https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/10/05/theme-viewer/feed

>That didn’t budge it either.
— instead of using <!-- and --> to comment out the CSS, use /* and */. You also need to increase/decrease margin-top:19px; (try something like 30px or 50px)

>I don’t want the image that is inserted into the post
— You can remove the image from the body of the post/page (don’t delete it from the media gallery through). As long as the custom field has the URL of the image it’ll show up.

>I’m using the wordpress editor that does not show line numbers ( by the by, how do you know what the line numbers is 218?)
