css question

we need the code inside the actual index.php file, not just the code you see when you view source. same with the pages that are working properly, i dont know what file names your theme uses, usually single.php for single post pages, and page.php for pages like the about page.

Apologies, boober. You are definitely right on that one. I had completely forgotten into oblivion that PHP coding is not visible under source code, sorry!!!

I went under “Theme Editor” in my admin, and saw index.php, page.php, comments.php, footer.php, functions.php, header.php, sidebar.php

I’m not 100% sure which corresponds to which, so I will post codes for each one …

Okay, back. Here are the codes:

“page.php”
comments.php
functions.php
header.php
footer.php
sidebar.php
index.php

I’m SO sorry there are so many files, but I’m sure you don’t need to look at half of them! ??

(I hope)

Thank you SO MUCH!!!

:::::Sending cosmic waves of gratitude and fortune :::::

Addendum: If you need to look at any more source code for PHP files, please let me know; if you could hint out which directory/folder I could locate that PHP file in my WordPress FTP, I’ll track it down and post it for you

??

i feel like im going crazy, i cant find a call for the sidebar in your index or page file. those are from inside your theme’s folder, right? was there a single.php? normally before the call for the footer is

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

i cant figure out how your menu is being displayed. hopefully someone will chime in and shed some light…

Boober,

You’re right, I searched in vain through “index.php” and “page.php”, and there WAS no call for the sidebar. I thought this was very bizarre, until I finally found it, but it was under the FUNCTIONS.php page. I didn’t even know this was abnormal (since this is my first installation of wordpress)

Here is functions.php, copied and pasted:

<?php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
	register_sidebar();
?>

This is a strange problem, I really appreciate your concern and anyone else who does consider to help!!! ??

It’s my first attempt at wordpress but the goal is to create a nifty little blog for one of my best friends. Her birthday is coming up in less than a week, and she’s been such an endearing, loyal friend I wanted to give her her own WordPress blog to manage her budding photography hobby ??

arghhhhhhhhhhhhh… ignore my reply from a few seconds ago. my brain must be filled with dust, lol.

I did find the call for sidebar, it’s under the FOOTER, strangely.

Here is the footer.php’s contents:

<!-- begin footer -->
</div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

</div>
<div id="footer">
<?php wp_footer(); ?>

</div>
</body>
</html>

in ur index.php file, please try to put this code.

<div style="clear:both;">&nbsp;</div>

just after ..

<?php posts_nav_link(' — ', __('&laquo; Previous Page'), __('Next Page &raquo;')); ?>

and before

<?php get_footer(); ?>

let me know if that helps.

Ektz, that was very kind of you to help with the suggestion.

I implemented the code, and unfortunately, it did not work.

I am very appreciate of your help though ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

Update: still hasn’t been fixed ??

By the way, I’m using Firefox. THe problem manifested itself in the same way in the OPera browser too.

You have a lot of HTML validation errors:… I would start with checking that out. You have CSS validation errors, too, but they don’t seem very serious.

And you are right — that CSS file is organized very strangely.

Frankly, this seems like a badly designed theme (in terms of how it is structured).

PS A very useful tool for Firefox is the Web Developer add-on, which offers a whole bunch of useful tools for analyzing the structure of a website. It also includes one-click links to the W3C validation service. I personally find it indispensable when investigating CSS problems.
