    Hi there –

    just wondering if you could please help me with the expound theme:

    1. when you click on a post it take you to the wrong page – ie click on ‘why use me post’ and it goes to about page. Don’t know why?

    2. How do I get rid of the ‘leave a reply’ thing on the pages?

    3. how do I get rid of the uncategorised flags on the photos please?

    4. how can I change the colour of the navigation box to a lighter grey please?

    5. How do I extend the feature box so you can see the whole post on the homepage of the four posts?

    6. How do I format the featured article to look like it should? Instead of all bunched up?

    Many many thanks for all your help
    Annabella

  • There are some stray tags which is pushing the position of the logo.

    Use Firefox and check the source code of the about us page from lines 219 to 237. The stray tags are highlighted in red.

    it also happens when you click any of the pages (not the catagory pages however)

    That means you’ve hard coded the logo code to the all the files and the “page.php” file contains the stray tags.

    do i just need to delete stray tags?

    It seems the stray tags aren’t the real issue. Your style.css file contains the following on line 80

    .post img, .page img {
    margin: 20px 0;
}

    The .page img is causing the space on all pages. I also find the stray tags on all pages so you should also remove those.

    And you seem to have modified the theme a lot which isn’t recommended as a theme update will overwrite all these changes.

    Unless it is a theme made by you or made for you, Child Themes should be created for altering the theme code.

    yes i know. I am new to wordpress and wish I had known about child themes at the beginning!

    .. so should i remove

    .post img, .page img {
    margin: 20px 0;
    }

    ?????

    AND stray tags?

    Removing .page img is enough

    .post img {
margin: 20px 0;
}

    For the stray tags remove everything in between

    <!-- <a href="https://littlebusinesses.co.uk/" title="Little Businesses">Little Businesses</a> -->

    and

    <div id="header-left">

    and place

    <a href="https://www.littlebusinesses.co.uk">

			<span style="color:#FF6600;font-size:34px;font-family:georgia,serif;">Little <img src="https://littlebusinesses.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stock-photo-3310418-light-bulb-sketch.jpg" width="90" height="80" alt="Sell your start up" />Businesses</span>

			<span style="font-size: 12px; color:#A9A9A9; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', helvetica, sans-serif;">  ...sell a small business or start-up </span>

</a>

		</div>

    ah no – I did the first bit and now trying to do the header.php i have made a mess!

    how should I change this:

    <body <?php body_class(); ?>>

<div class="wrapper">
	<div id="header">

<!--	<a>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a> -->

<html>
	<head><title></title>

	</head>
	<a href="https://www.littlebusinesses.co.uk">

<div>
			<span style="color:#FF6600;"><span style="font-size:34px;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">Little <img src="https://littlebusinesses.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stock-photo-3310418-light-bulb-sketch.jpg" width="90" height="80" alt="Sell your start up" />Businesses</span></div>
		<div>
			<span style="font-size: 12px; color:#A9A9A9; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', helvetica, sans-serif;">  ...sell a small business or start-up </span> </div>

	</body> </a>
</html>

		</div>

		<div id="header-left"><?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu', 'theme_location' => 'header-left', 'walker' => new Imbalance2_Walker_Nav_Menu(), 'depth' => 1 ) ); ?></div>

		<div id="header-center"><?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu', 'theme_location' => 'header-center', 'walker' => new Imbalance2_Walker_Nav_Menu(), 'depth' => 1 ) ); ?></div>
		<div id="search">
			<?php get_search_form(); ?>
			<div id="header-right"><?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu', 'theme_location' => 'header-right', 'walker' => new Imbalance2_Walker_Nav_Menu(), 'depth' => 1 ) ); ?></div>
		</div>
		<div class="clear"></div>
	</div>

	<div id="main">

    does anyone know what plug in I might use to get a label/sticker/price tag on each of my videos – for an example of what I mean see https://www.crowdcube.com/ and see the 2days left and 3 days left stickers on some of the thumbnails. Any ideas welcome!

    thanks

    Please open a new topic with the appropriate heading.

    Since this is marked resolved no one will take a look.
