Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: RSS Feed is invalid, how to fix?I have tried all four of those options now.
- After deactivating all of my plugins, the issue was still there.
- Switching to Twenty Eleven, again, didn’t resolve the problem.
- Resetting the plugins folder by FTP and PHPMyAdmin (alternately, not simultaneously), didn’t resolve the issue.
I have an identical site on my local testing server, with almost all of the plugins on my remote site active (plugins such as IntenseDebate and Jetpack are not running locally as they require the plugins in the wild), and the feed works as desired. Could it be a problem with the WordPress software and the feed generation script? I have the AddToAny plugin installed and the feed option does not work, but importing the feed into Google Reader seems to return the valid posts. Feedburner (owned by Google) also returns that it is an invalid feed with the same issue.

In reply to: Complete custom Next and Previous linksI have found the solution. Thanks to your comment, esmi, and a little testing on my part, it can simply be done with CSS and the WordPress tags. It will display just as a normal Next or Previous link, no extra special CSS skills required. ??
All I probably need to say (and WordPress could do with adding on their Codex) is you can add HTML inside the next_post() and previous_post() tags. CSS is just applied to it as you would a normal HTML element. I built my arrows in another page, made them look right and copied the code into their appropriate place. Since I used single quotes ( ‘ ) to define the variables in the PHP, double quotes ( ” ) can be used to define the HTML attribute values as normal, and the % works just to add the actual link, as normal. No idea how to get the link to wrap around the entire HTML code, but I will leave it at that. It works this way, so I am happy.
Thanks for your help. I don’t think I would have tried had you not said that it was just HTML coding.

In reply to: Complete custom Next and Previous linksDo you know of any tutorials I could look at or anywhere in the Codex it says how to do this? So far, all I have found is https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Next_and_Previous_Links#The_Next_and_Previous_Posts

In reply to: Adding elements to my blog page when there is more than one postMainly header.php and footer.php ?? The most I’ve done to index.php and single.php is add a date icon.
Here is the entire code, in between the get_header and get_footer functions:

for any other page (including index.php, if I have 11 posts and 10 are displayed on my front page) that contains one blog post.

In reply to: Adding elements to my blog page when there is more than one postI’m making my own. I downloaded a starter theme from https://wpcandy.com/made/the-wordpress-starter-theme-project (I haven’t touched themes in a long time and I need to understand the structure fully to really make my own). I’ve modified it by adding new elements in but I have kept the core intact.
