    Hi Agentevolution,

    I came across a small issue in your plugin which I managed to resolve but I wanted to share with you and the community.

    In my theme, there is a ‘content’ div with a particular background image. I noticed that your plugin when used with my theme was displaying the background image twice.

    When I checked the page source, I saw that there were now 2 ‘content’ divs and this is why the image was being displayed twice. One content div was the one within my theme and then there was another content div which seemed to have been inserted by your plugin.

    To stop your content div using the css meant for my div, I needed to rename my content div and of course change the reference to this div in my css.

    Since ‘content’ is a commonly used word for ids within people’s themes it’s probably a good idea if you rename your content div to something else, thus reducing the risk of clashes and unintended consequences.

    Now that I have managed to troubleshoot some of these small issues the listings are appearing very nicely and I am very happy with your plugin..many thanks..Dara

    #content is a commonly used name but is usually only used within the content area and after the_header() function call so it’s appropriate in our usage within the plugin. Your theme is apparently adding the #content div to the_header() function which is not ideal.

    Could you tell us what theme you are using?

    Rather than rename your theme files, as mentioned in your other post, you can copy the templates within the plugin into your theme folder and customize as needed to fit your theme.
