In reply to: WordPress feed… WITHOUT a widget ?https://twitter.com/about/resources/widgets
This is a twitter widget so I don’t believe it would have anything to do with your theme — just fill in the information and paste the code where you want the feed to sow up.
Hope this helps!

In reply to: changing default "home" in nav barDashboard > Appearance > Menus
Create a new Menu
Add your pages to said menu. If your home page is set to “Your Latest Posts” you will need to create a custom url (just use the link of your main page)
Add said menu to the main menu area in the theme locations box.
Click Save at every step!By creating a custom menu, you will be able to have control over the menu item names.
Hope this helps.

If You Want Your Old Blog To Still Work
Caution: Make sure you have a backup of your old blog’s WordPress database before proceeding!
Part A – Activating Your New Blog
Download your entire WordPress installation to your hard drive. Name the folder appropriately to indicate that this is your OLD blog’s installation.
Download your database.
Go back to your OLD blog and go to options and change the url (both of them) to that of your new site.
Again, download your entire WordPress installation to your hard drive. Name the folder appropriately to indicate that this is your NEW blog’s installation.
Download your database once again (but keep the old one). Upload this database to your new server. It will be easiest if you use the same database name and you create a user with the same login credentials on your new server as on your old server.
If you used a different database name and/or user (see previous step), edit wp-config.php in your NEW blog’s installation folder appropriately.
Upload the NEW blog’s installation folder to your new site. Presto, your NEW blog should be working!
Part B – Restoring Your Old BlogOn the original server, delete your OLD blog’s database (remember, you should have a copy on your local computer that you made at the very beginning).
Upload your OLD blog’s installation folder to your original server, overwriting the files that are currently there (you may also delete the installation folder on the server and simply re-upload the OLD blog’s files).
Upload your OLD blog’s database from your local computer to the server. That should do it!
Another procedure for making copies of posts, comments, pages, categories and custom field (post status, data, permalinks, ping status…) easy to follow:Install a new WordPress blog
Go on old blog Admin panel. Here, in Manage > Export select “all” in menu Restrict Author.
Click on Download Export File
In new blog go on Manage > Import, choose WordPress item.
In the page that will be shown, select the file just exported. Click on Upload file and Import
It will appear a page. In Assign Authors, assign the author to users that already exist or create new ones.
Click on Submit
At the end, click on Have fun
Note: using this method if there are some articles in new blog (like hello world, info page…), these will not be erased. Articles are only added. Using the former procedure the article in new blog will be deleted.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Blogspot or WordPressI don’t know anything about blogspot but I am sure you could put a link back to your site somewhere in there.
As for the WordPress menu, you would have to create a custom menu
Dashboard > Appearance > Menus
(create a new menu and add the items you want on it — don’t forget to assign it to a place on the site) Don’t add the Blog Page to the menu…Instead:
Add a custom menu item called blog, but using https://susanlstewart.blogspot.com/ as the urlHope this helps!

In reply to: link gallery to productI don’t know how you set your site up already, but here is how I would do that:
Page > Editor (Make sure you are in the html editor)
Insert an image. It should put a code like this onto your screen (it will show an image if you are not in the html editor):
<a href="LINK URL"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-370" title="2100 small" src="IMAGE URL" alt="" width="300" height="167" /></a>
Change the link url to the place you would like it to go. You can then go back into the visual editor and click your image if you would like to change the size etc.
Hope this helps!

In reply to: Link showing up that shouldn'tIt is in your code so whoever made your theme probably put it there. I would suggest looking for it in your footer.php
Find this twice: (delete it)
<a class="copy" title="webdesign" target="_blank" href="https://www.iwebix.de">Webdesign</a>
and this once (unless you want a smiley in the corner of your site:
