• Well, I’ve gotten login working, and I believe I’ve managed to integrate the index.php and wp-layout.css files (from 1.01 and 1.2) integrated ok. But I’m back to layout chaos. I’ve tried a few different ways to fix this but nothing I am trying is working. I got an answer to this question earlier today but the solution doesn’t seem to be working this time around. I’m not quite sure what I’m doing wrong.
    Thanks for your help. I think this blog is *almost there* so to speak.

  • You have this in source: (and therefore index.php)
    style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    @import url( <php echo get_settings(https://wump.info/public_html/wumpblog/wp-layout.css);
    </style>
    I’d just go for:
    style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    @import url( ‘https://wump.info/public_html/wumpblog/wp-layout.css&#8217;);
    </style>
    or maybe even:
    style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    @import url( ‘https://www.wump.info/wumpblog/wp-layout.css&#8217;);
    </style>

    Ack .. it missed some < but you can see what I mean ?

    All looks cool now dude. Welcome to Word Press.

    I’ve tried following the different suggestions but I seem to still be having problems. Here’s the actual code that I have right now:
    <style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    @import url(<?php echo get_settings (‘https://wump.info/public_html/wumpblog/wp-layout.css&#8217;); ?>/wp-layout.css );
    </style>
    I’ve tried the other suggestions as well … but so far no luck.

    Since your css file is called wp-layout.css, I’d just download a fresh copy of 1.2, open up that untouched index.php file, and copy over all the css lines from it.

    I made the change suggested by Beel and there is a slight change overall but still chaos. My index.php file was copied pretty carefully over (I gave up the integration with that actual file) so I’m wondering if my wp-layout.css is the actual problem — as that was a real integration of my 1.01 and 1.2 files. I’m going to try and look over that file first and just see if there’s anything obvious. If Beel doesn’t mind I might email a copy of that file as well, just so that he can tell me if anything sticks out to him.
    Thanks again.

    I tried it with both of those urls (including the second way you suggest) before and it didn’t change anything — I just added the public_html to try that out. But I’ll go back and give it one more try just to see if it does anything.

    That looks fine, and I can see your css ??

    I’m going to leave it with http//www.wump.info/wumpblog/wp-layout.css for now… as that is probably the correct thing. You might recognize a difference in the screens. I’m thinking the real problem could be my attempted integration of the two wp-layout.css files.

    If you scroll all the way down, you’ll see what I’m talking about. There’s supposed to be a left-hand column where categories, links, etc. are going. So it’s probably the wp-layout.css file that’s screwed up.

    What I can’t see is any sort of ‘width’ setting for #content
    Try setting the #content for width: 500px; and leave menu as it is

    #credit has a width of 1010px
    Drop that to around 750 – when the rest is complete, it can be moved to fit perfectly.

    Yes, don’t touch the index page anymore. It is the css that is “messed up” now. What happened? As I recall, you had this up and running pretty well a while back? Did you save your old css?

    (@danithew)

    Yes, I did save my old css. Will the 1.01 wp-layout.css be sufficiently compatible? Should I just re-import that? I thought with some of the new changes I’ve read that have been made, that I’d have to somehow integrate the two files. Is that wrong?

    That css should be fine.
    Fire it in, and we’ll see what’s what ??
    Adding things to something that’s 90% right is easy.
