In reply to: Menu messed up in IE“My laptop doesn’t boot up, I have a centrino 1.6 GHz and 512MB RAM”
My point: How would we know what’s wrong, unless you provide a link to your site? ??

In reply to: Custom “The Loop” ProblemsThird line of your code:
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $myquery->the_post();
You forgot the underscore in
my_query->the_post()
.As a start… it seems you completely forgot to call the header.php in all of your .php files. When you look at your source code you’ll see that it starts with
<body>
, instead of<html>
,<head>
and all the other nice stuff that makes homepages (and css) work :).Forum: Plugins
In reply to: permalink structure changed, but Google doesn’t knowNope, but google needs some time to adept to your new permalink structure. Just wait a few days, and google will show the correct links. The reason why it just finds you root website is most probably, that it updates the front page more frequently than your posts. Plugin or not… the same thing would have happened with google. Patience… ??
As for your question, it wouldn’t make much sense to use the plugin just for google now, but it’d be useful, if some other pages contain links to your posts with the old permalink structure.

In reply to: Changing page width, Arts Emerging ThemeThe problem is, that changing one width might not be enough, because there can be a wrapper-div with a limiting width for all the content, or you may have to make a sidebar smaller, etc pp…
In addition, a lot of people (and themes) use different div-IDs for the content-divs in different templates… for example
<div id="narrow">
in index.php, and<div id="wide">
in page.php, and so on. I would recommend that you backup your css and then just try changing some widths. It might also be a good idea to read up on some basic css knowledge, for you to get an unterstanding of what you’re doing.If you need help, you should provide a link to your blog, otherwise it’s almost impossible to assist you in any way with specific issues.

In reply to: Show archive of a categoryThere doesn’t seem to be a simple answer. Try this one. And with just a little effort of your own, I’m sure you would have found that, too.

In reply to: Author links not CaPitALized right…grr.Why didn’t that work? What’s the output? Maybe you can try something like…
<?php $firstname = get_the_author_firstname(); $firstname = strtolower($firstname); ?>
… and when it comes to outputting…
`<?php echo $firstname; ?>Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Instable <br/> !No, you don’t. The editor just has a soul of its own and corrects what it regards to be mistakes. I’m afraid i can’t offer a solution, but I’m sure someone else can. Just wanted to tell you, that you’re not doing anything wrong ;).
Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: Opinions on my new designUsually I’m against full text posts on the front page, because people don’t like to scroll down thousands of px (with text) to get an overview of recent posts. Your page is certainly different because there’s little text and lots of pics/youtube, and excerpts for posts which don’t contain much text are not interesting enough.
What you COULD do is adding a list of recent posts to the top of your sidebar.

In reply to: Author links not CaPitALized right…grr.Try changing this…
<?php the_author_firstname(); ?>
into…
<?php strtolower(the_author_firstname()); ?>
It’s not exactly a nice way… more like a workaround which doesn’t deal with the origin of your problem, but it should be good enough for now ;).
