In reply to: Article within the menu. Where can I get this theme?Do you mean a theme that uses ajax?
Try this demo: https://johnsaddington.com/. It loads all the posts in the same window.
You can download the theme here.
Or, you can check out the Woo Theme, Vibrant CMS.
(Weird, I can’t post a link to it…)

In reply to: if is_front_page not workingWordPress uses different templates for pages on your site. If you have a page.php template in your theme, that will be used to display your pages. If you have a single.php, that will be used to display your single posts. index.php or home.php would display your home page, or page.php if you have a certain page selected as the home page through the reading options.
So, your conditional statement:
<?php if (is_front_page()){ ?> <p>Home Page</p> <?php else { ?> <p>Not Home Page</p> <?php } ?> ?>
Would only really be useful in the header.php or the footer.php file- or in page.php if you have a certain page selected in the reading options.

In reply to: How I succeeded with horizontal page navigationThere’s ways to do this with Thematic that are actually pretty easy. You can even just replace the dynamic menu with a hardcoded menu if you want:
// Add a hardcoded menu // This would go in your functions.php file for your child theme function childtheme_menu() { ?> <div class="menu"> <ul class="sf-menu"> <li><a href="https://mysite.com/link-one">My Link One</li> <li><a href="https://externalsite.com/link-two">My Link Two</li> </ul> </div> <?php } add_action('wp_page_menu','childtheme_menu');
I wrote a blog post about thematic menu hooks here.
But if the plug-in works, awesome.

In reply to: cforms Form PositioningYou probably have something like this in the css:
.cform {
margin:10px auto 0 auto;
width: 410px;
}You would change it to:
.cform {
margin:10px 0 0 0;
width: 410px;
}Or you can download a skin I made that is left aligned: https://wordpresstheming.com/2009/11/cforms-styles/.
I wrote a post about how to increase the memory limit in your php.ini file. It assumes you have ftp access to your server, but it’s fairly straight-forward:

In reply to: WordPress site for parentsMake the menu fixed, under your site banner. Purple is too loud and sucks attention. Your content area is too wide, it’s easier to read when it’s a bit thinner. WAY TOO MANY ADS. It feels like a spam site. Better to have one good well placed ad that works with your content than 50 that I won’t click on. Put your google adWords under your posts- after I’ve read what you had to say and am maybe in the mood to buy something.
I’d start over with a clean design- something like Thematic (https://themeshaper.com/)- or drop a few dollars on a Woo Theme. Professionalism goes a long way towards building trust, which will make me more likely to take one of your product recommendations.
And, to agree with everyone above. You should be blogging about this subject because you are passionate and interested in it. Otherwise, the pay is way too low.

In reply to: www.shell-shock.orgAlso, I would be careful about saying that you promote PTSD. <grin>

In reply to: www.shell-shock.orgHey Simon. I’d clean up your header image, it’s grainy and hard to read. Also, why all the US flags when it’s a site about British PTSD?

In reply to: I need a logo in my headerHey. You’ll probably need to edit the theme files. If you go to “Appearance” > “Editor” (in the left sidebar) and then click on “header.php” (on the right sidebar)- this should be the file you need to edit.
Look for the code:
<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
and replace it with the image tag for your logo, probably something like:
<img src="https://yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/myimage.jpg" />
If you paste your header.php I’ll see if I can give more specific instructions.
That worked perfectly lisafeel. Thanks.
