  • Yeah Ryan, that little freakin button is playing nuts lol. It is running around all over the place ??

    Hey Chris,

    I understand that hotfix plugin may fix this problem but I do not consider that a good solution. Not everyone loves putting up a pile of plugins in their WordPress installation. I hate keeping too many plugins and I try to keep minimum plugins.
    A better solution would have been a DIY article. I will fix this problem, suggest it to WordPress folks (if someone hasn’t already) and also write and publish a DIY article.
    THAT would be a better solution.

    Thanks for the help anyway.

    Forgot to mention, no harm in trying the above solution IF you do not have any customizations done in the ADMIN of your blog.

    Hey there GatorWills,

    I’m not sure if this solution is going to work for sure. But someone suggested this solution ..

    Download fresh WordPress package.
    Unzip it
    Upload WP-Admin and WP-Includes folders to your server over-writing the old folders.

    Hope this solution works.

    From what you are saying, it seems you’ve messed up your blog completely. Have someone fix it for you or give me your blog details, I will fix it for you. If you want me to help ya, tell me what exactly you want to do. Eg., you wish to install the blog on the root or in some directory, etc. Don’t worry, won’t charge you anything for the help ..

    Yeah .. Same here. I use 4 custom fields in my posts. Earlier I used to add values for those 4 custom fields one after the other. But after upgrading, I add one custom field, hit ADD CUSTOM FIELD button and the button disappears. I have to hit “Save as draft” and the custom fields button re-appears. For 4 custom fields, I have to do the Save As Draft thing 4 times. Then I can publish the post. Although it works but then I look at 4 post revisions that were created because of saving over and again.

    Someone suggested to download the WordPress package and then Overwrite the WP-Admin and WP-Includes folders on your server taken from the package. I’m gonna try that and see if that works. Will let you know if it worked.

    I’m getting the same problem on my blog. I have selected to show 25 comments but it is still loading 400+ comments on many of my posts. Can anyone help us please?

    You don’t know basics of CSS! You don’t know basics of PHP! Then what do you know about website designing? I feel pity on your client who hired you. Sorry I have to use harsh words but you are wasting someone’s time and money. What a shame!

    What happened to your site buddy? Don’t see your website/blog there. Instead I see the Aplus.net page. Guess, you’ve taken down the blog.

    Yes, you need to put that css in your stylesheet.css/style.css file. Just put it anywhere the file, it will work.

    For getting a vertical line in between, you can do this:

    <div id="bigcontainer">
    <div class="smallcontainer">Content</div>
    <div class="smallcontainer1">Content</div>
    </div>

    CSS:

    #bigcontainer {
    width:600px;
    margin: 10px;
    }
    .smallcontainer {
    width: 300px;
    padding: 10px;
    border-right: #cccccc 1px solid;
    }
    .smallcontainer1 {
    width: 300px;
    padding: 10px;
    }

    This is what you will have to do on your testimonial page:

    <div id="bigcontainer">
    <div class="smallcontainer"><strong>Testimonial 1</strong>
    This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial ..
    </div>
    <div class="smallcontainer1"><strong>Testimonial 2</strong>
    This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial ..
    </div>
    <div class="smallcontainer"><strong>Testimonial 3</strong>
    This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial ..
    </div>
    <div class="smallcontainer1"><strong>Testimonial 4</strong>
    This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial .. This is a testimonial ..
    </div>
    </div> //don't forget to close the bigcontainer div
    And so on...

    You can either use STRONG for testimonial headings or use h3 or anything else. Play around with your options, I’m sure, you’ll be able to come up with some good ideas ??

    Can you tell me if you see this piece of code in your header.php file?
    If it is not there, first backup your header.php file and then put this piece of code in it where you see “Navigation” function. It could be the wp_list_pages function there. But replace that with this:

    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>

    Try try .. ??

    It says on left side:

    THEME LOCATIONS
    The current theme does not natively support menus, but you can use the "Custom Menu" widget to add any menus you create here to the theme's sidebar.

    I tell you a little secret about how to customize your blog.

    First of all, Use Firefox. Firefox has an excellent feature called “View Selection Source” and none of the other browsers have this feature.

    Whenever I need to fix something, at FRONT END of my blog, I select that part and then right click on that part and then click “View selection source”. It takes me to that exact portion and shows me the codes that I need to fix.

    I just highlighted/selected the table you are trying to fix. Then I viewed that selection’s source. I see this code:

    <table style="height: 1022px;" ;="" width="800" border="0" cellpadding="“0”" cellspacing="”0”">
    <tbody>
    <tr style="text-align: justify;">
    <td style="text-align: right;" width="50%">
    <h5 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"><em> <span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">“I’ve work....

    Ok now first of all, check the first line, why is there so much stuff in it. You should use a css class for the table instead of putting all that in your page/post.

    If it is a “page” then I would use DIV:

    <div id="bigcontainer">
    <div class="smallcontainer">Content</Div>
    <div class="smallcontainer">Content</Div>
    </div>

    CSS:

    #bigcontainer {
    width:600px;
    margin: 10px;
    }
    .smallcontainer {
    width: 300px;
    padding: 10px;
    }

    I just used any random width/height/margin/padding attributes. Please use those attributes as per your own requirement.

    Now if it is a post where you are trying to use the table, then you should do everything in the CSS:

    table {
    font-size : 13px;
    font-family : 'Lucida Grande', Helvetica, verdana, sans-serif;
    text-decoration: none;
    border-collapse : collapse;
    width : 100%;
    line-height : 20px;
    }
    tbody tr {border: 1px solid #eaeaea;}

    The above is just an example but you can design your own table css. I’m sure, this will help you.

    Regards.

    Wow, what a nice website you got there. Nasium, you are 2 steps ahead of me in customizing WP. I’ll leave it for a WP expert or Mod to assist you with it. Sorry bro, I’m feeling like a douchebag myself ??

    Not sure how you are creating pages outside the WP installation. But something that can help you, create different templates and stay within your WP installation. But if you don’t want these “different template” pages appearing in the top menu, just use the exclude function to exclude them from the menu.
    And, are you using any pagination plugin such as WP-PageNavi? I recommend using it, makes life a whole lot easier.
    Sorry if I was unable to help you but a bit further reference (link to blog or custom pages) could help me answer your questions better.
