Solved the problem. For some reason the fact that I used ID and Name in the registration of the sidebars created the weird behaviour. After deleting ID it worked!

You could set-up a dummy domain and connect it to your hosting. Then you create two folders, /primary and /secondary and link your domain primary.com with the folder /primary and secondary.com with /secondary.

There are several plugins for this or you can do it manually. Just google for ‘exclude category wordpress” and you’ll find something that suits your needs!

I’m sorry but that’s not rubbish. If you want to highlight a menu item (and not just the color of the font) why not doing the navbar by hand, assigning a class and that’s it. Its not mandatory to use wp-nav_menu…

I don’t really understand what you want to do!?

Connect to your server via FTP and rename your theme’s plugin folder to plugin_backup or so. This deactivates all plugins and you will most likely have access to your blog again.

Then rename the plugin folder back to “plugins” and carefully activate your plugins again.

There are loads of documentation about that. Just google for “CSS”, “Classes” and “background-color”.

Basically you have to edit your style.css file and create a new class .featured (or so). Then you give the class a background-color, like this:

.featured {background-color: #ff0000;}

Then you need to edit your header.php file and find the code for the navigation bar. The class you just created needs to be assigned to the last list item.

<ul>
<li>list item 1</li>
<li>list item 2</li>
<li class="featured">last item</li>
</ul>

So yeah, that’s basically how it works but when you have only little experience with css/html you should definitely read some tutorials first. Otherwise it can be a little frustrating…

So I double-checked everything and I actually don’t think that integrated facebook comments wrong. But I actually figured out that when I leave a comment with my dummy account on sites that use the older version (v1) of FB comments they are visible even after logout. The problem is related to the new version of fb comments.

Does anyone know if the privacy settings have anything to do with that?

You need to assign a class with a background color to the list item “Membership” .

Sorry, just found a post here in the forum that solves my problem!

Hi dgwyer,

thanks for your response. Its not that Contact Form 7 by itself slows down my site but having several plugins that each call seperate css and js files does slow down my site. So combining css and js files into fewer files should make a difference. At least if I believe YSlow ??

Any other ideas how to speed up the site. What about adding Expires Headers?

Thanks,

Yep, that did work. Thanks so much again!!

That was it! Thank you so much alchymyth!

Don’t use buddypress. ??

Any development on that issue?
