Revion

Well, I forgot what I did exactly but I did go back and made a child theme to a T. That didn’t fix it but eventually it stopped doing it. I honestly have no idea where or how or why this was happening. The changes I had in place vs creating a child theme were exactly the same so I don’t see how something like this would happen. Sorry that I’m not much help. Let me know if there’s anything else I might be able to help with/ponder.

I’ve also updated to WordPress 3.5, and did a fresh install of the twenty twelve theme….

I’ve already created a child theme and had everything working, went in today and Boom….header-blog.php is deleted from the child theme’s folder….

When I was reviewing the codex none of that clicked for me thanks for everything guys!!!

IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ?? ?? ?? Thank you so much!!!!

This is why I posted this on here… The the_date(‘m’) echo is 11 (it prints it onto the post) but when I do if the_date(‘m’) == “11” it returns false…which makes no sense in my mind 11=/=11… I’ll look at what you just posted and see if that works…

Unfortunately (unless I’m just using the get_the_date method wrong) it will then not post any information and it won’t even enter into the if elseif statements, thus leaving the background color white.

One more thing, This snippet of code is just checking to see if the value of the_date(‘m’) is equal to 11 and if so to echo the string value. What doesn’t make sense is that according to what is being outputted the_date(‘m’) will echo 11 BUT the_date(‘m’) does not equal 11. (11 is the month that my post was written)

if ($month == "11"){
echo "aklsjdflfjasdlkjflskjdflkasjdf";
}else{
echo "AKSJDLKJDFLKJSDLKFJLDS";
}
