Thanks alchymyth – that’s just what I needed. Works great.

I get an error:

Warning: printf() [function.printf]: Too few arguments in [my url] on line 19

But it seems like that suggestion would remove the date and I’m trying to keep the date and remove the time only. Anyway I decided to just copy the simple code from the codex:

<div class="entry-date"><?php the_time('l, F jS, Y') ?></div>

And it works! Although I don’t really know what the rest of the code was that I deleted… do you see anything I should have left in there?

Thank you Esmi, that works ??

Thanks – I changed my form code but I’m not sure how to add the class to the stylesheet. I can edit the stylesheet, but don’t know what to put in there to make sure the break isn’t auto-inserted before the <input> field. I am really a beginner with css.

I *don’t have* a line break between the amount and text input. It’s being auto-inserted. I tried to post my code but I see it was moderated out. I’ll try posting just that single line:
<tr><td>Amount: <input name="a3" size="7" type="textfield" /></td></tr>

And my whole form code here:

You can see I don’t have any break in my code, so why is the browser putting a break in there? Fwiw, I didn’t notice this problem until I upgraded to the latest wp. (Although there is a chance I just didn’t see it before.)

Can you point me to info on how to apply a class to a form?

It’s the 2nd PayPal form (monthly support) and I want the input box on the same line as “Amount”.

Here is my code for the form:

Oh sorry now I see your link – seems like you have a different problem – sorry I don’t know the answer.

Go to Settings — Reading — Front page displays
You should see radio button selections. Choose “A static page” and then specify what is your home page and what is your posts (blog) page.

Thank you esmi.

As I was falling asleep last night it occurred to me to check for exactly that — looks like I’m just one step slow. I’m sure I messed it up tinkering with fr and fl when I moved the original sidebar to the left side. I thought I had put them back correctly but I missed this one.

I’ll have to check out the firefox plugin. Seems quite useful.

Funny you mentioned sudoku – I like them too ??

Thanks again for helping me conquer my first WordPress site. My sister (who it’s for) is very pleased with it, and I am too.

Looks like that will work well enough. Thanks again. I still need to figure out why the date jumps to the right of the title when I select a single post, but at least the site is presentable.

Just curious – how do you do a simulation?

Found it! I took out the last </div> and now the posts all line up in their column the correct width. THANK YOU!

The sidebar is still too far left. Any ideas?

You’re obviously good at this and I really appreciate you helping a newbie ??

I think I have the sidebar in the right place now… but something is still not right, aarrrghh.

Ok, I just saw that LOL. Well at least I’m getting closer to the solution. I fixed it in the single.php and page.php which I messed with, and so I guess I can assume it’s the index.php that is showing my blog page. It looks like the sidebar was originally in the wrong place there, but I tried moving it down and, well, the menu is in the right place now but the sidebar is below everything, and the posts still want to take the entire width of the page.

Thank you for your help and patience.

I don’t see top-nav in either of those files, but I did find the php code for the navigation.php file. Anyway, the sidebar is before that in the index.php but not in single.php. I moved it up and still no change. I also have a file called page.php and I’m not really sure what it’s for, but I found the sidebar and moved it up above the navigation there too, but still have the problem. Any other suggestions?
