A sidebar doesn’t even need to exist, unless you want one. Whatever you put inside it is up to you.

check your error logs for anything else?

xhtml compliancy makes css work more easily. try your best to minimize the # of errors (95? currently) and possibly whatever css you have will work all of a sudden. If you are very desperate, try putting another div around the navbar and absolutely positioning it.

what template tag are you using. if you are using comment_author_link(), use comment_author_url() instead. Something like:

<a href="<?php comment_author_url(); ?>" target=_blank>Visit <?php comment_author(); ?>'s site</a>

Start by putting a doctype (you have a few in the middle of your code for xhtml 1.0 trans) at the top of your main index file. Then try running your site in the W3C html validator. Most of their errors are self-explanatory. If you have questions about those, post them here and people can help you out.

What happens when you visit yoursite/blog/wp-admin/ directly?

I’m at work and email is a little tough. If you have any questions, post them here?

I may be blind, but I don’t see the 1px border under comments?

Assuming that he actually needs help:

I find it easiest to keep a seperate sidebar.php so design a sidebar (usually some sort of ul in a div) and then import it into the files where it matters. Edit the css in style.css till you get what you want.

You could just borrow the posts from the themeviewer https://themes.wordpress.net/

Make sure not to steal their image though

I currently see a test post on an install of wordpress but lacking any css, because the css file (supposedly located at https://miggo.net/blog/wp-content/themes/default/style.css) returns a 404.

I don’t know if Moshu is helping you out with this, but as previously stated you’ll need to clear out the database as well. This would be defined by the database details explained at https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Installing_WordPress#Step_3:_Set_up_wp-config.php.

edit: looks like Moshu beat me to it :P. if your webhost does not give you access to your sql tables, try to create a new database and use this new database when installing the reuploaded files.

I haven’t actually checked your css yet but it could easily be a problem with IE box model since your page lacks a doctype. For more info, look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer_box_model_bug

You should really clean up your code a bit (there are multiple head and doctypes in the middle of your page?) and get it to validate before worrying about the css.

query_posts('cat=4');

I don’t know if that info is outdated but it has worked for me.

can’t you use query_posts to handle this as well?
