In reply to: changes to front-page.php don't appear on siteHi there,
Can you post here what exactly is in your ‘Top Section Description’ box in your Appearance/Theme Options sections.
Using firebug I can see the structure of part of your code and it looks like it may be corrupted somewhere.
You could always rewrite the ‘Top Section Description’ to see if that helps. I have looked at the theme and thats the section that should contain your contact info.Let me know how you get on.

In reply to: Posts and Featured image are too bigHi there,
I have had a look at your site and I think it looks great. I dont see any major alignment issues. It doesnt look like the demo you linked to though? The only slight issue is your images are not all the same size. In your CSS code you have the height set to auto so your images will always be the same height and to keep their aspect ratio their widths will vary depending onthe actual size of the image you upload. To avoid this you can crop all your images to the same width.hope that helps.

In reply to: [Theme: Gamepress] How to add slideshow?Hi there,
There are lots of slideshows around, depends if you want a free one or premium one. Do you want special effect like text flying in? More often than not you would need to style it with some CSS. Can you do that? (To get the semi transparent background on the text).
That particular slider is https://dev7studios.com/nivo-slider/
What ‘thing at the right side’ do you mean? The thing that says news, reviews,videos? Thats just a widget. Which is part of the theme.Hope that helps. Good luck.

In reply to: [Spun] posts as pagesHi there,
The code you have above is PHP not CSS, so putting it in CSS manager wont work. PHP needs to go in files with .php at the end, you need FTP access to do that. It that something you can do?
Alternatively can you not rewrite your post as a page? Also you can link to any of your posts if you make them a menu item, making them behave a bit like a page.Let me know if that helps. If not, tell me some more about why you need to make your posts appear as pages.
Good luck.

In reply to: [Preference Lite] Preference-Lite right sidebar is now on Left.Hi there,
Your sidebar is on the right when I look at it. It looks great. Have yo been setting variables in firebug and not set them back? If you are still having problems google clearing cache for your specific browser. If that still doesnt work take a screen shot and post it here and I will have a look.
Good luck.

In reply to: Possible to have 2 styles of single.php?Hi there,
You can do this two ways.
1. Create a new template. Just copy single.php call it something else then make your styling changes withing this file. You can then select this new template from your post/page.
2. Read about post formats https://www.wphub.com/tutorials/wordpress-post-formats/I hope this helps you to find the solution you are looking for.
Good luck.

In reply to: [Omega] Layout and ColorsHi Jacob,
To answer your questions;
1. Select the Omega theme from your dashboard and click on the customize link. From the customization panel on the left that appears, select the ‘Global Settings’ tab. Then from the dropdown list that appears select ‘Custom CSS’. Then type the following CSS in the Custom CSS box. I have put blue but you can put your selected color here, using rgba or hex values..site-header {
background-color:blue;
}2. The sidebar is 300px wide, found from using firebug – a great tool!
Best of luck.

In reply to: Need Help With "Post Format" Code PlacementHi there,
For a good explanation try this tutorial https://www.wphub.com/tutorials/wordpress-post-formats
What errors are you getting and what exactly are you trying to achieve?Karen.
Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Can't Customise local host WP site!Hi esmes idea is good! Also, what I do when developing sites is create a sub folder next to the folder where the live site is and create a new wordpress installation there. You can make it potected so only specific users can log in and see the site if you want them to. Then you can develop the site using the same setup as your live site. When you are ready for it to go live just modify a few paths and away you go, it’s really simple. Then if you have problems you can show others who might be able to help you when they see your site.
Something else you could try is creating a new post with new image to see if you are writing to the correct database.Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Installation gives empty tablesHi, check the database user has all the privileges in the database . Reapply all privileges and install again.

In reply to: Cant Upload theme showing php.ini file errorHi go to the install themes tab, there you can install a theme as a zip file. The second zip file you mentioned is the one to upload. Normally when you download a theme it comes with a bundle of other files, docs, psd files. Once you unzip the main file you will see your theme file as a zip. Install this one. Hope that makes sense!
