Thanks for the help. I’m still learning WP and don’t know yet all the items available in the dashboard. I appreciate it.

Thank you so much!!! I didn’t realize that control panel was there. I feel like a fool, but I really appreciate you pointing me towards the right solution. Thanks!

I’ve gone to the settings and changed it to 15, but it still only shows as 6 on the site. I modified the Magazine Basic theme because I needed to 3 posts horizontally, but for some reason, I’m only getting 2 rows, instead of 5. I’m very new to php and can’t figure where in the code this needs to specify 15 posts on the home page.

I think it has something to do with this php, but I’m not sure:

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php $x++; ?>
<?php if($x == 2) { $i=1; ?></div><div id="contentwrap"><div id="content"><?php } ?>
	<div class="post post<?php if($i==16) { $i = 15; } echo $i; $i++; ?>">
		<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

		<div class="storycontent">
			<?php if(get_option('uwc_excerpt_content') == 'content') {
					resize(85,85);
					theme_content('(more)');
				} else {
					resize(85,85);
					theme_excerpt(get_option('uwc_excerpt_three'));
				}
			?>
		</div>
	 </div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php if($x>16) { echo "</div>"; } ?>
</div>

mjshozda,

I have been scouring the internet for a week looking for exactly the 3-column format on your site! Thank you so much for posting that link. I’m borrowing your HTML and CSS and modifying it for my site, but I’m 90% clueless when it comes to PHP. Any help on that front? Thanks ??

Just wondering if someone experienced can take a look. I’m sure I screwed up the php but don’t know how or where.

You can see how the site looks on WP (https://www.bensonreport.com/wordpress/ and how it should look: https://www.bensonreport.com/indextest.html

Thank you so much!

Sorry about the URL, it was there when I hit post.

https://www.bensonreport.com/wordpress/

The last line of the header.php file is what I posted in the code above.

<div id=”posts”>

That’s how the php file ends. I was modifying this from a different theme that works perfectly and ends the same way.

Thank you so much for your help.

Thanks. Am I able to specify a different link for each blog post, or is it a generic redirect, the same for all links? I can’t really tell.

How major is major? I really would like to learn to do this the right way, if possible. Thanks so much for your help so far.

I figured it would be something ridiculously simple. That fixed the logo visibility issue, and I got the slogan and logo in the wrapper, but when I changed “absolute” to “relative”, the placement was completely off, putting them both below the nav bar.

I tried float:left but that gives the current result. Still not sure what to do. Thanks again.

I just looked around some more and realized that I get that error when I click the link from the ReadMe file, which pulls the link directly from my computer. If I type in https://www.mysite.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php (the location of the file), then I get this error:

Warning: require(D:\Hosting\2542608\html\weedygiraffe\wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\Hosting\2542608\html\weedygiraffe\wordpress\wp-settings.php on line 247

What does all of this mean? I’m so frustrated and know that WordPress is probably the best way for me to go, but I’m ready to just give up. It can’t possibly be this complicated, can it?
