Thanks…found it.

Tried some other things, but nothing is getting the home – menu item back on the nav menu…

Still am using this code:

function register_my_menus() {
  register_nav_menus(
    array('header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ) )
  );
}

And I don’t want the front page static…anyone?

Can wordpress do this?

I read through some documentation and I didn’t find it anywhere. Hopefully I am missing something.

right but I don’t want my front page static.

I still want it as a blog layout.

I only put in this code:

function register_my_menus() {
  register_nav_menus(
    array('header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ) )
  );
}

I was able to re-order my menu items, however I lost the default “home” menu item. It was not a choice in the menu panel.

What am I doing wrong?

ok, i just put this piece in place of showposts=10

<?php query_posts(‘posts_per_page=-1&orderby=title’); ?>

that got them alhpabetized but ascending order…

no, but thanks…

got this “->” and then the post and not in alphabetical order…

vtxyzzy,

Thanks for your help the other day by the way…

Here is what I want to do, and here is what I have done temporarily…

https://webhostmaven.com

I have a “welcome post” below the comparison table. I had a lot of issues because of the theme defaults.

First, I want the post to be stickied to the homepage – that I can do.

Second – I want the whole post to show, not just the excerpt – this I am unsure how to do.

Third – If I write the post in wordpress and publish it, I get the default “visit website and read review” buttons like the other posts. I don’t want that.

Fourth – it also looks for a thumbnail which I also don’t want.

Right now for a temporary work around, I have a widget with a jpeg image sitting there of the post. So it is not true content. Its just a widget of an image.

It seems easy, I just can’t seem to figure out what to do, and I would prefer content there instead of a lame jpeg of a post.

Can the plugin you suggested do this? I started messing with the plugin but didn’t get anywhere.

Thanks
Greg

ok, that definitely did it, thanks bro…

Only minor thing now is, it is too “tight” to the comparison table.
I need a bit of space between the banner and the table…

Could I just add <p> in the widget? or is their a better way than my half assed way?

almost man, but now it appeared above the table.

The table is a plugin so that might be why it is not in the index.php

I moved it back for now, but man you got the right idea.

I have to do something with that plugin, just not sure where and what.

here is more:

<h2>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<div class=”post-bottom”>
” class=”readmore”>Continue Reading
” class=”viewwebsite”>View The Website
</div>
<br clear=”all” />
</div>
<?php if ($count==0) { ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar(‘index-insert’) ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php $count = $count + 1; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

Here is my function.php

<?php
register_sidebar( array(
‘name’ => ‘index-insert’,
‘id’ => ‘index-insert’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<div id=”%1$s” class=”%2$s widget”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widget-title”>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’
) );
?>

And here is my index.php

<?php if ($count==0) { ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar(‘index-insert’) ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php $count = $count + 1; ?>

But, I want it above the first post not after it.

Thanks guys, I don’t know how to widgetize however…lol
