I’m not the best PHP user. I tried to modify the code you gave me, but failed. How can I use the code to display a single pages content, and the blog posts? I’m looking to have the blog content appear next to the currently loaded page.

esmi, thanks for the link. Looks like the right idea, but I have no idea how exactly to pull it off…I need a bit more help!

Sorry, I mean displaying the blog posts in the right column, and the current pages content on the left.

Just looking for a bit more info. I can’t seem to get this figured out for the life of me…

if I echo $color_header, a single color will appear. If I return $color_header, I got nothing. I think I’m confused as to how to return and place the variable into the theme. Any help?

Those are $ signs (dollar signs.)

Ah, that makes sense, thanks! But out of curiosity, why wouldn’t the header be green right now?

Yeah, I accidentally posted the old version..I’ve cleaned up the semi-colons, and incremental addition which WordPress hated.

<?php
$color = 1;
$color_header;

function color_rotator($color, $color_header)
{

if ($color==1)
    {
    color_header=="pink";
    color==color+1;
    }
if ($color==2)
    {
    color_header=="blue";
    color==color+1;
    }
if ($color==3)
    {
    color_header=="yellow";
    color==color+1;
    }
if ($color==4)
    {
    color_header=="green_blue";
    color==color+1;
    }
if ($color==5)
    {
    color_header=="green";
    color==color+1;
    }
if ($color==6)
    {
    color==1;
    }

return $color_header;
}

This code is in functions.php and called in index.php and runs with zero errors, but just does not do anything at all. There is no background color on the headers. I am no PHP ace, as every time I use PHP I get unexplainable errors, so any advice is appreciated.
