I had to go back and manually edit every single old post to place the thumbnail html code in the “post excerpt” field. Haha. It must have taken me a good three or four hours. Sorry I can’t bear better news on this…

Meh, nevermind. Looks like I forgot about the Custom Query String. ??

Problem solved. Thank you very much Nathan and Mike.

Here is the page.php from inside my template.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<!-- BEGIN main -->
<div class="main"><div id="main-inner">

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<h2 class="page-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>

<div class="page-body">

</div>

<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

</div></div>
<!-- END #main -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thanks for the help.

Oh my God Mike, you’re gonna kill me. Your solution actually worked – I just wasn’t accustomed to looking in the right place on my site.

Thanks!

Afraid that still didn’t do it. Although I’ll note that your suggestions are not crashing my website like my own alterations were doing. If you’ve got any more ideas, I’m listing. Thanks Mike.

Thanks for the tip Mike. Unfortunately no change however. Might I need to specify somehow to show the next ten posts numerically?

I appreciate the help.

Nevermind on that question – looks like I have it worked out now. I edited the “page.php” file inside my template directory file. Thanks so much again for the help!

Marjiec, thanks for the help. I am working on fixing the invalid code now. I have one question though; when you say I will then need to change the id to class in my template page – can you be more specific? I’m not sure what file to alter for this. As I said, I’m kind of a n00b when it comes to editing code.

Thanks!

Yes, that is the site. Awhile after posting this thread, I added

width: 62em;

to my ul#nav, which seems to have centered it. Though I’ll have to change it each time I add or remove a link in the navbar it looks like.

Thanks for responding!

marjiec, thank you for the help. Just changing those repeating ID tags to class tags solved the alignment problem with the post titles. Actually I have left the navigate inner as a repeating tag, because when I changed it to a class tag, the layout of some of the blog became odd.

One thing – I’m a total n00b when it comes to code, and I had to do some google searches to figure out how to write a class tag – and I’m still not sure that I did it correctly, even though the title alignment problem has now been solved. For example, I took this code:

#navigate {
float: right;
width: 240px;
font-size: 0.9em;
}

and changed it to:

<class>
float: right;
width: 240px;
font-size: 0.9em;
</class>

Did I do that correctly? Like I said, it seems to have fixed the problem, although I’m not certain I did it correctly.

Regards,
Eric
