I’ve found a plugin that will set a post/page to expire upon a total number of views but not exactly what I’m looking for.

Anyone else know of another solution?

I’ve even changed the logout location int he plug-in settings to be the home page, but no matter what it still goes to:

https://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php?loggedout=true

I sorrrt of got it working. It’s not the best solution and the original template I was working with wasn’t constructed that well and it’s my own fault for using it.

I had to set the left-column (the main content) to have a min-height in CSS of that of the height of the sidebar after it was filled with content. That turned out being 1500px. It works fine now.

https://www.self-titledmag.com/home/ is the final.

i seem to have temporarily fixed it by giving the #main (left column) a min-height of 1500px in the css… but I’m sure this will sneak up again soon.

still having this issue – losing my mind!

the widgets wont just stay lined up on the right.

help! I’ve tried everything I can think of…

You would have to remove the following code from your header.php file:

<div class="header-menu-wrapper clearfix">
 <div id="pngfix-right"></div>
  <ul class="menu" id="menu">
   <li class="<?php if (!is_paged() && is_home()) { ?>current_page_item<?php } else { ?>page_item<?php } ?>" id="header-menu-home"><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/"><?php _e('HOME','piano-black'); ?></a></li>
   <?php
         $options = get_option('pb_options');
         if($options['header_menu_type'] == 'pages') {
         wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=0&title_li=&exclude=' . $options['exclude_pages']);
         } else {
         wp_list_categories('depth=0&title_li=&exclude=' . $options['exclude_category']);
         }
   ?>
  </ul>
  <div id="pngfix-left"></div>
  </div>

WORKED. Brilliant!

i’ll try it out. thanks again!

has anyone created a gawker.com “top headline” style section on their blog? what would be the best way to approach this? im probably doing it wrong at airandseabattle.com

@alchymyth That totally worked! Thank you! It fixed the problem with pagination but the “Headlines” along the top change along with the page. Not sure how I can keep that static to the 4 most recent Headlines but I’ll keep trying. If you have any recommendations I’m all ears ??

i was just playing around with page navigation to see if it would help fix, im removing it now

Just in case, here is my code for the index.php

<?php get_header();?>

<div id="skybanner"><h2>Recent Headlines:</h2>
<?php query_posts('showposts=4'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?><p class="skylink"><?php the_title(); ?></p></a></li>
<?php endwhile;?>
</div>

		<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

		<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> <?php edit_post_link('- Edit Post'); ?></h2>
			<div class="postmetadata-twitter">

<script type="text/javascript">
				tweetmeme_url = '<?php the_permalink(); ?>';
                                tweetmeme_source = 'airandseabattle';
                                tweetmeme_style = 'compact';
			</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script></div>

<div class="postmetadata-top2">

<span class="date-text"><?php the_date('F d, Y'); ?> ( <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?> ) - Written by: <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></span></div>

			<?php the_content('Read more &rsaquo;'); ?>

			<div class="postmetadata-bottom">

Posted in: <strong><?php the_category(', '); ?></strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;|<strong><?php echo '<ul class="addtoany_list">'; if( function_exists('ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_ICONS') ) ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_ICONS( array("html_wrap_open" => "<li>", "html_wrap_close" => "</li>") ); if( function_exists('ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_BUTTON') ) ADDTOANY_SHARE_SAVE_BUTTON( array("html_wrap_open" => "<li>", "html_wrap_close" => "</li>") ); echo '</ul>'; ?></strong>

</div>
		</div>
		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<div class="navlink">
			<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link(); ?></div>
			<div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link(); ?></div>
		</div>
<?php posts_nav_link ('sep','prelabel','nxtlabel'); ?>
<?php get_footer();?>

I too have this problem. I also set this folder to 777 and nothing happens. Anyone else having this issue?

I seem to be having a similar issue… did you ever get this fixed?

Thanks for bringing up this subject. I’m trying to do the same thing but it seems my theme isn’t making this very easy…

I want to add the code that alanft suggested:
'before_widget' => '<li id=\"%1$s\" class=\"widget %2$s\">'

But I can’t seem a place to add this. Below is is my sidebar code, can anyone offer any suggestions on where to add this line?

<?php
