In reply to: Deadline – 4 specific posts on a template page.vkaryl, thanks for the link. The ‘showposts’ actually refers to the number of posts to display.
However, using an example further up the page, cutting and adding code, I got it to work. Here’s the the unformatted working loop for everyone:
<?php query_posts('p=42'); ?> <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> <?php the_content(__('(Read the article)')); ?> <?php endwhile; ?>
[edit] Run this loop multipul times on the page with different ‘(‘p=ID’)’.
Thanks very much. I thought my brain was going to explode.

In reply to: Content background missingUnfortunately without being able to see the theme files, neither do I. Go into the theme directory, or your photo page files, and look in the index.php files or template files if there are any. Since it’s not on all pages, it is likely not in the footer file.

In reply to: Content background missingmrsankey, you have too many
</div>
tags.find this:
</div></div></div>
<p id="footer">
[content...]
</p>
and replace it with:
</div>
<p id="footer">
[content...]
</p>
good to go. Also, to you have the wrong doctype for the page. Fix that and you have a validat-able page. G/Lrob

In reply to: getting rid of the blue outline on the headerTo enhance what drmike is saying, you are seeing the background color because the kubrick header has a white border wrapping the image and the slight fade you see through the content area.
Find the following (midway down the page):
#header {
background-color: #73a0c5;
margin: 0 0 0 1px;
padding: 0;
height: 200px;
width: 758px;
}
#73a0c5 is the color you are seeing, but changing the color to #fff isn’t going to fix your problem. Instead of blue, the color will then be white. Test my theory, by setting the above ‘background-color: ‘ to #000. It’s will be black, and ugly.If I were you, take the kubrick header img and place your current header over the blue gradient portion of the image, leaving the white border and the slight fade. This will be the easiest fix.

In reply to: Artificial Intelligence theme port?Hmmm…. I’ve seen an html template pretty close to this on OSWD.org. If you get your hands on the css then it shouldn’t be much of a problem to create your own theme.

In reply to: New Plugin – Edit n Placeis it possible to show a WYSIWYG editor instead of the html view. I’d like some of my users to edit the content, but they knowk nothing about html. Any plans to incorporate that?
Same question also applies to your Creat N Place plugin.

In reply to: Poetry websiteIn my experience, WP can be coded to work for just about anything. I’m currently using it for a blog, a portfolio website, development for a portal service (news, groups, classifieds, etc), and another project which will remain nameless (far from a blog).
Having said that, if you do not know php, or have the time/patience to develop, you may want to try another CMS. Joomla, as suggested, or maybe activeCollab Collaboration.

In reply to: Cat List links to Cat Main?So that no one thinks i’m being lazy, you all should know I’ve searched and searched and came up with no solutions.
I’ve tried the solutions posted
Here(support/topic/50315/page/2?replies=38)
Here(support/topic/79263?replies=3) and
Here(codex.www.ads-software.com/Category_Templates)Nothing is changing.
To give a little more info. I’m making a menu listing top level categories are buttons and having a drop down menu list the posts within that particular category. The post titles list but all link to the top level category.
Also something odd in the source that might be helpful:
<a href="https://MYSITE/aboutus.html">LeaderShip Team<!--enpte-->" class="menuitem"><!--enpts-->LeaderShip Team<!--enpte--></a>
Anyone know where ‘<!–enpts–>’ comes from?

In reply to: How to let users to post news on my site?One of my project involves something similar, where user can add content.
Download 2 plugins:
Role Manager
UserExtrasWith some configuration, you’ll be able to limit users to post only to a specific category. They won’t beable to select any other cats, because it won’t list them.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: Removing or Editing FluidityNeed more info.
What theme are you using?
However, it’s a CSS fix. Try setting position of sidebars to absolute, or is it relative. I can never rememeber.
