Pages Do Not Display and Archives is Empty in Cutline 1.03

This is the code that displays the header pages

<ul id=”nav”>

• href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>”>front page
• href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>/archives/”>archives
• href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>/about/”>about

<li class=”rss”>“>RSS

Oops, that didn’t display like I wanted. Let me try again

Well, I am having a tough time pasting the code here because the code is rendered literally, or tries to be, when I submit it. Rats.

Any takes out there?

Handy? Anyone?

One of the biggest mistakes in these themes is that we all to often take for granted that the theme developers know what they are doing.

The solution to this problem is in the way the author is trying to display navigational links in the header. He had actually set up a very complex and frankly worthless (in my opinion) system that forced you to hard code every page in an unordered list, rather than using something like a standard WP pho call function like

<?php wp_list_pages(‘sort_column=menu_order&title_li=’); ?>

My mistaked was in thinking there was a method to his madness, but really there isn’t. He just took something very simply and complicated the hell out of it if you ask me.

https://cutline.tubetorial.com/how-to-add-navigation-links/ That explains why this theme is a pile of crap from the word go. Sheesh.

Getting the Archives page to work is a similar situation.

WordPress has its own way of managing archives simply by using the php tag <?php get_archives(); ?>

The author of this theme was not happy with that either. So he came up with his own way of doing it, which is fine. But unless you go to his tutorials page specifically for his theme you will be lost. Just follow the instructions here:

https://cutline.tubetorial.com/how-to-add-navigation-links/ to get your archives listed.

I’m using the same theme on one of my sites and I am having the same problems.

I don’t know the answer yet. I’ve been busy building the rest of the site and haven’t had the chance to stomp on this bug (or am I not regising the feature? I don’t know)

One thing I finally realised is that these directories dont really exist – the .htacess ‘creates’ them, but if you ftp into your account – nadda/nincs

I really think it is a lousy theme

Why anyone would use it is beyond me. Once you get into it and see how much work is involved in maintaining the look and feel of the blog you would be nuts to keep it

Actually I think it’s a very nice looking theme – I value simplicity and white space.

Its also good if you plan on using adsense and appreciate widgets.

I suspect that there is something obvious that we are missing about the archives issue.

There is something obvious, and the solution is in the link to the tutorial above.

Yes the them looks nice, but the innerworkings of it are overly complex. It’s heavily widget dependent, and I don’t like that. Even the style sheet is built for the widgets. It’s just a matter preference. If you enjoy how it works, awesome. I just don’t.

Dude, I just figured it out….

> Manage
> Pages
[ might need to search for ‘pages’ ]
> click on ‘edit’ link of Archives
> click + (plus) on ‘Page Template’ on the right
> select ‘Archives’
> click Save button.

nifty nifty!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

HELP! I need to find someone I can pay money to for setting up the Cutline theme for me.

I really like the cutline theme. It is the best looking theme I found. But I am having a real problem installing it and getting the archive to work.

Does anyone know where I can find someone who can do this?

I regret having picked this theme for my first installation. I can’t get pages to be linked properly, either. This is supposed to be easy!
