seems to be working now. For anyone else who runs into this problem. go to your plug ins and Deactivate Akismet and then reactivate it. That solved the problem for me

i get a dead page when i click that link. and can you better explain the message you are getting

@gekko74

We still need the sidebar.php script to be able to help.. it looks like you may have tried to post it but it was blocked.. if thats the case please make sure you put the code in backticks ‘ ‘ . then it wont get blocked.

@summer Haven

I would head Esmis advice. Ive been on these forms enough to see him solve probably 1000000000 problems. Also your problem is completely different. Gekko is asking for help removing ads from sidebar. not a header.

post your sidebar.php contents

haha you are not going to believe this. I followed your input. found a file called Functions, that had the art_post function in it. after looking at it and inserting the code here and there, and then ftp the file to the site and still wouldn’t work!

So just to make sure i didn’t miss anything i downloaded a program to scan through all files in a folder for specific text. I searched for “author” and it found a bunch (as expected). But there was a config file. and it looked something like this:

[metadate]
..
.
….
….
header = “date,author,edit”;
footer =”category,tag,comments”;
…
…

So i figured i might as well try it before i come back here and bug you more, i added comments to the header section and it finally worked.

Thank you so much for your help on this

So

I can get that to work only if i am on the website and using firebug to enter it, but that only shows on my screen.. My index file only contains `<?php
get_header();

if (have_posts())
 {
    while (have_posts())
    {
      art_post();
    }
    art_page_navi();
 } else {
    art_not_found_msg();
 }

get_footer();

sorry if i am being a pain

haha, that made a lot of sense when you put that way. I did switch it to the default theme and the link did in fact work. so i am guessing now that i will need to have the theme redone to have this fixed?

Jackson,

I appreciate you taking the time to help with this problem and the other problem i am having.

But i have one more dumb question for you. Which file should i insert this code into?

https://airgun-academy.pyramydair.com/blog/

If you look at the very top right hand corner you see the link there, and also in the top list at of links in the sidebar.

I have tried deactivating the plug ins but nothing was changed. I cant exactly change the theme, its a blog my company produces for our products.. I may be able to over the weekend but it would have to be in the very early morning early hours when no one visits it.

Dont know if this will help but i had a similar problem once. In your FTP client follow the directory it is giving and verify all the locations are there.

also what plug in are you using?

hmmm ok.. i appreciate your input on this subject. One last question, do you know where in the WP files would be the file that generates the email notification for when a comment is posted?

i know that, Thats why im asking if there is an alternative solution.

say for instance i have it set up so when a comment is posted, i receive an email. Would there be a way to include the avatar picture in this email.

or even create another option to send a notification when an avatar has been set up for a user, or when said avatar is changed

esmi,

I have seen and read those. but it states

“If your avatar is rated as too explicit (you get to set the rating yourself) it will not be shown on sites that do not support that particular rating.”

so basically saying that the user sets it to what they want it. So lets say it is an explicit picture, and they set it to G status. there is nothing to prevent it from being displayed on my blog

awesome got it. Thanks alot Esmi

Just tried and the comments are still showing that error message. i have also tried pulling the templates from the active blog and switched out them out, but still the same message. And i also put the original WP files in there as well
