still cant work out how to insert an image

it's supposed to be /wp-content/themes/lonely-island-10 - or did I miss some major change in the program setup while I was sick?

Doh!

the two URI’s are https://temperateminds.com

btw, i tried the path with AND without the /index/ in it, both times there was no joy.

hmm, interesting – I just switched to a new theme, and in the sidebar added

<img src=”https://temperateminds.com/wp-content/lonely-island-10/images/clouds2.jpg&#8221; alt=”Clouds” />

and it appeared!

BUT— It forced the sidebar down to the bottom of the page and I can’t see any sidebar css in this guy’s theme.

(its called blue horizon, i just grabbed it off the WP site)

looks like this ship has sailed – and sunk before the next harbour

Hiya –

One problem with your setup is that in order to work properly, your themes need to be within a themes folder in wp-content, and right now they’re not.

A normal wp install sets up folders like this: /wp-content/themes/default/ and /wp-content/themes/classic/, where “default” and “classic” are the two themes which are packaged with the distro.

Any other themes you want to use should be placed within /wp-content/themes/ – so your lonely-island-10 theme folder needs to be moved into the normal themes folder. Once you get the system back in place where it should be, then we will be better equipped to see what’s going on.

Sidebar dropping has been discussed ad infinitum ad nauseam on here – try a quick search, mostly it’s to do with the width of your content being more than the width of the container you put it in….
