Not that I can see. Under settings/discussion, there’s a tick box and it even says:

[] Allow people to post comments on new articles
(These settings may be overridden for individual articles.)

But there are no options to override in individual articles. Just empty space under the text edit window… ??

Thanks ??

Oh don’t worry, the CSS did mess with my head.

Ah, he’s good.

! is_page()

That did it. The is_archive didn’t work so well.

Thanks a bunch.

Ooops. Spoke to soon.

It works for the blog home page but not for the rest of the blog.

I think you might have mentioned this but I’m not 100% sure on what you mean?

Brilliant, that worked first time.

Thanks a lot.

Took me a while to get around to trying this but thanks, it works a treat ??

… never mind. I miss clicked something and lost 4 hours work, so have to start again.

close thread.

Ok, i got the is_page to work. Those links were most useful.

But I just need a further tip in how to do something…

I want it to say:

<?php 

if (is_page('About 3C')) {

<div>Display this particular div</div>

}

else {

<div>Display that particular div</div>
}

?>

At the moment, it throws out a php error. I used to be able to do this in coldfusion, anything after the if statement would just display/continue the html code, so we’d see the resultant div tags.

That’s great. I’ll look into that and get back.

Many thanks!

Actually i think it’s my bad.

I thought that the pages had a ‘page-id’ variable. But i just did this and it came out negative:

<?php

if (defined('page-id')) {
    echo "x";
}

else {

echo "y";
}

?>

So… is there a way to check if we’re on a certain page?

Actually, it may be my php. I’m rusty with php.

Here it is:

<?php
if (page-id=="20") {

<div id="homelinks">

Bla bla, div content goes here...

</div>

} else {
    echo "";
}
?>

I’m trying to establish ‘if’ you’re on the home page then display this div, otherwise do nothing. I noticed that pages have an id and that the home page is 20. So this is my guess… ?

‘fraid so.

That’s exactly the case.

Nice,

I upgraded and now my site looks like this:

https://www.threecoaching.com

Is this going to be the situation every time i upgrade??

Right. Think i’m there now.

Confusion was this:

I tried before to simply duplicate my twentyten folder and rename it then attempt to select it in the ‘choose theme’ section. But the thumbnail and description of the duplicate obviously hadn’t changed. It looked like absolutely nothing had happened. I thought the thumbnail preview was dynamic see.

So i found the ‘screenshot.png’ plus the info at the top of the style.css file and customized that. NOW when i select a theme you can see the difference.

Time to try the update and hope it works.

Right. Getting frustrating here, been trying this all night.

I have one folder in my themes called ‘twentyten’.

I rename it and my site disappears. Kinda makes sense.

the word ‘twentyten’ appears a LOT in my wp theme files/css. Is there just one or MANY instances where i have to rename references to ‘twentyten’ to my new theme name?

I can’t find where it is i have to change the code so it’s no longer looking for ‘twentyten’ and is instead looking for whatever i rename my theme folder to.

cheers
