Blog

hmmm, if you didn’t do anything to your template files then your theme is broken somehow, maybe has a special template for a blog page?, or perhaps needs an update?. I don’t know code well enough to see if anythings wrong in your code, seems to have the sidebar divs in place. Have you been using your theme long? I’m guessing not.

I just started this over the weekend. So yeah, not very long. I will go through all of the code to check sidebar stuff. Im very weak with the coding.

also do the ussual de-activating of all plugins, and I would also revert to the default WP theme (probably twentyten?) and see if the problem remains.

I even went back and redownloaded and re-pasted the original style code.

Well I did a preview of the original theme, twentyten, and it seems to work in that. Even when previewing the WPfolio theme it still is messed up. So I guess I’ll have to choose between the two and heavily revamp the twentyten one.

If that theme, with no plugins, with all code default, can’t do a blog on a static page without issues -I wouldn’t use it. There’s a big problem there.

what kind of site are you doing? twentyten may not be your best choice, I’m familiar with many themes, I could probably reccomend something based on your needs.

Im just making a page to display my art. Basically something clean and simple to use (for the viewer/user) and similar to the one I am using. Thanks for all the help.

You might try Minimatica, here’s one I did with it:

I ‘m currently doing another art site using Custom Commmunity:

And here’s a super minimal twentyten site I’m doing, it’s a band site that’s on hold at the moment.

Cool. I will look into that. I think those might be a bit too complicated but its worth a shot.

You’ve come this far..go for it! I’ll help as I can. I know those themes pretty darn well.

Thanks and I will. I think for tonight I will get some rest and give it more of a shot tomorrow.

I should at least mention the most popular plugin for displaying photos is NextGen Gallery. I used it before, has a ton of cool features, but I always seemed to hit a wall with something or other I wanted to customize. Anyway I stopped using it for that reason.

OK I decided to keep the wpfolio theme and I connected a tumblr to my page to do post. Now the only issue is the awful cropping associated with it. Any ideas? Im sure I can edit this in the css code but where do I look?

Opps. Totally got it, somehow. Thanks, now if I can get the tumblr to actually post my post.
