Hi all,

This is a very helpful thread that helped me learn about using my Amazon astore inline frame code. I do have a question (I think with a simple answer) that I’m hoping others on this thread can help me with…

I have created a template named “shop” and got it down to the bare essentials of code. I then inserted my astore inline frame code….but I can’t seem to get the store aligned right. Can anyone offer some advice?

Here’s my page with the astore https://wedreaming.com/?page_id=36

See how it’s overlapping on the left side?

Here’s my “shop” template code
[code]
<?php
/*
Template Name: Shop
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<iframe src="https://astore.amazon.com/wedreaming-20" width="90%" height="1000" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

</div>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>
[code]

I have tried changing the width percent using lower percentages and also tried changing it to pixels. Still no deal.

Can someone offer any advice here? I'm using the Default WP theme, Kubrick.

Thanks for any help.

Can anyone offer any further advice on this? I still cannot get the author names to show on their posts.

Any further development on this project? I’m very interested to see what has come of it:)

I have tried adding the <?php the_author() ?> to the page.php template, no success:(

..and when you say “or assign to the template you have assigned to the “front” page, I want to make sure I understand what you mean….I created this page called “home” choosing the “main index template” on the right column during the creation of the page. I would assume then that this page; “home” is using the “main index template”. Am I corect?

If so, then this is what I’ve done. I have added the <?php the_author() ?> to both the “index.php” and the “page.php” files (one at a time) and the author names are not showing after the posts..(except it shows the author name on the ONE post on the “home” page).

So, here’s where I’m at right now…

1. The Static-Home-Page plugin is deactivated.

2. I have added this <?php
query_posts(‘pagename=home’); to my “main index template” right above the loop.

(this leaves me with the post’s author name ONLY SHOWING ON THE MAIN PAGE.)

3. I tried adding the <?php the_author() ?> to the “page.php” file above the loop with no difference.

I’m still in limbo on this. Is there no way to specify a main page and have the post’s author names show?

LesBessant,

That was the first thing I tried. It works if the Static-Front-Page plugin is not activated….but it does not work if that plugin is activated.(this is all stated in the above post;)

Ok, with the plugin deactivated, I entered this into my main template page above the loop… <?php
query_posts(‘pagename=home’); //retrieves the about page only
?>

You’ll notice I change it to say “home” as that’s what the page name is that I want to load first. That worked and showed the author name of the post on that page.

However, when going to different category posts, the autor names still failed to show? Am I supposed to put the author name code into some other pages?

Any advice is greatly appreciated:)

Showing author names does not work with this plugin activated. Can anyone offer any advice on how to work this with this plugin?

I really like the static front page option;)

Michael,

Thanks for your advice but I have already done all you suggest (as written in my original post).

I have found a solution, although the cause is still a mystery…

I simply deleted the original database and created a new one through the Godday Admin area. I used the new connection strings in my wp-config.php file and the installation went fine.

I can only assume that there was some kind of corruption somewhere along the line when I created the first database.

The author names appear with the post after I deactivated the “Static Front Page” plugin from here… https://www.semiologic.com/software/static-front/

On my PC the far right hand column has text bleeding over the right edge..(the text is very large). And the upper right-most image does not load.. https://www.duotrope.com/images/linkto/generic_12060_white.gif

Hope that helps..
