Oh my goodness, what a tricky solution.

Turned out the div order was the least of my problems.
The plugin “WP Super Cache” was causing my blog not to update when hitting refresh — therefore when I uploaded a new file I was not able to see the changes.

I was unaware of this. I kept making changes, frustrated that nothing was changing. It only took one easy edit after I disabled Supercache to fix.

As they say in war;
Know your surroundings!

I did what the Validater suggested. I did not realize how many redundant </div>s I had. They all came from me trying to re-arrange my div order to fix the problem.

However, it did not seem to correct my problem. The site still appears cluster-bombed.

I will continue on my end to research.

Oh, perfect. Thanks for that info! I am VERY new to this ‘avatar’ stuff. I haven’t even seen the movie.

[RESOLVED BUTTON]!

Anyone have any insight?

This is not in reference of your question, just some helpful critique. You don’t have to bother reading it if you don’t want to. Feel it might help in your delivery of information.

Lots of amazing information you have, in fact, lots to digest in my first visit. Scrolling down your page is a chore, indeed.

Try separating your posts’ paragraph lines by using line-height. This will increase the overall height of your page, so perhaps you should either play with the [READ MORE] button (which would entice your readers into reading entire posts by clicking on them and going to their ‘single.php’.

Your posts “blogging,” “affiliate marketing,” and “adsense” have no space between paragraphs. I’m not sure why this is, probably something in your CSS. Ease up that readability by adding some paragraph space.

Good luck, hope it helps!

It seems very easy to make if you know your CSS. Just by looking at it I can figure out how to do such a thing. But fiddling with WordPress is very difficult because there’s a lot of PHP code I have to move around, and sometimes when I move PHP things get disorienting.

I can try to help you with the CSS, but you’ll have to do the PHP work. If you want you can send me an e-mail:

Not sure how much help I can be, but if you’re just starting out it’ll be somewhere to start.

Anybody else have any ideas?

Why isn’t a child DIV’s height causing the parent to stretch with it?

It worked perfectly for Internet Explorer. But the Sidebar is still on the bottom-right-side of the #content and not the top-right-side.

As for Firefox, the #content was stretched to height of my browser, but does not go any lower, thus cuts off scrolling the length of one page. And the Sidebar continues to display properly on the top right corner of #content.

I’m not a pro nor expert, so these are opinions.

It seems your photos are sized VERY large: width=”1024″ height=”768″

So the photos are displaying 768px vertically, but the parent div prevents the photos from expanding horizontally (Which would create even bigger problems if your photos displayed at full resolution on the front page!)

What if you shrunk the photos according to their sizing ratios? Some simple math … *brainstrain* … the ratio would be width=”450″ height=”337″.

That way the photos would appear un-squished, though their would be a lot smaller. That’s easy because all you’d have to do is A HREF them with target=”_blank” so they could appear larger in a new window if your viewers clicked on them!

Woohoo! I think.

EDIT: Child with KISS shirt = awesome!

Thanks guys.
I am using peariconsmall2 in my stylesheet. In typing the code above I simply used pearicon.png as an example, but yes it’s in my css.

Does the default Kubrick theme disable all LI bullets by default? Because when fooling around with it, I can’t even get the default bullet to display. So I’m thinking that somewhere else in the stylesheet there’s a command that effects LI bullet display.

I have tried this, and it does not work on my website.

Well if you want to check it out, https://www.mismatchedpear.com … I’m very confused and have tried many things, even creating a background image under LI imitating a bullet, and that didn’t work. The background displayed repeated, but disappeared completely when I added “no-repeat left center”.

Thanks for your efforts, I do hope to get this to work!

You say I can’t link directly to a theme file, which is understandable. So in that case, which file do I link to direct users to 404.php?

And my hoster is GoDaddy… I don’t have a .htaccess, but I believe GoDaddy handles all of that on their server. (I got an input box from “Manage 404 Page” asking me which URL to direct to.)

This bit of line is in pretty much every .php file of mine.
I started out with the WordPress default theme Kubrick and basically created my own theme. I never touched the

/**
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Theme_Name
*/

because I did not know what it would do.
Should I replace either one with my own theme name?

It works great! Thanks!

Now, before, each link had a little pear icon preceeding the link itself. It was a simple image.

I really want the bullets to display as the image of a small pear. I’ve tried embedding images into bullets before but had no luck. So, could we take this a step further and have the LI bullets to display as images?
