Garvin,

You need to put in the html for the box to show up, e.g., [div class=”votio”]Wrestling Thing to Vote for[/div]. I’m assuming you added his CSS code to your stylesheet.

The actual votio php code goes somewhere else, not where you want them to vote. I put mine after [?php the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’); ?] and then, in that one spot in your main php file, after that you just have the [?php votio_ballot_box(); ?] code.

So if you want it after the pic of your wrestler guy, put in your code and then put the div code I have above, and make sure you post it in the category you chose to have the voting in.

[In case it’s not obvious, I changed all the “<” codes to “[” so the code would show.]

Maybe I’m not being clear here.

In your main template put the [?php votio_ballot_box(); ?] code after [?php the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’); ?] and don’t touch it again.

Then make a post in the voting category you chose, and after your post type in [div class=”votio”]Rate guy here[/div].

Well that link is a helluva lot simpler than emailing. There’s so much I don’t know ??

I have all versions. If you leave your email address, I can send it to you.

I do like the look of that ??

I think I’d like to see more structure within it – perhaps like a bounding box area, rather than some text at the left a picture, some text at the bottom, some text at the right. I think it would give closure to each topic.

It looks nice, I like the green and it’s fairly clean and simple looking.

Yes, I get the following message:

‘Warning: main(./includes/Defines.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/codexwo/public_html/index.php on line 24

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘./includes/Defines.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/codexwo/public_html/index.php on line 24′

Thanks so much LesBessant – that worked perfectly, everything’s valid now *woohoo*.

Nope, just the main page, and just with this site. I have another site using WP and it doesn’t have the same problem, but then I hardly have any plugins on that site either.

Oh, and welcome back Xerocool – couldn’t access your site for a while.

Ok, tried the Query Diagnostics and it gave me the following message:
<!– 44 queries. 2.626 seconds. –>

Could the number of queries be what’s slowing it down? 44 of them (have no idea what they are).

Xerocool, I think “no spyware” here, 8 zillion programs to check it although I haven’t rebooted for a day or so, and I also tried my site on my honey’s computer and had the same thing.

Seems to be an intermittent problem. I’m wondering if it’s my host or, God forbid, the cable company, except that it seems to happen so often.

Ok, I’ll try that (if I can figure it out) cuz I just reloaded my site again and it took 55.249 seconds to load – this time it wasn’t even the sidebar, it was the header loading only, and then waiting.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Podz, it just loaded for me in IE in 2 seconds. That’s what I was mentioning in a previous post – it gets ok for a while, and then all of a sudden 8 second loading again. That’s why I keep taking off plugins, I don’t know of an answer.

Nobody ever offered any solutions to this and I’ve taken half the stuff off the sidebar.

However, it’s happening again. It seemed to be faster for a while, but now again it’s taking about 8 seconds to load in IE (Avant) and less than 1 second in Firefox.

Any ideas anyone?

I’m trying it again and in Firefox, the page takes less than 1 second to load, but in IE I’m getting 9 seconds and a lock up until the sidebar is finished loading.

Is it possible any plugins or scripts do not work in IE? This is beyond me.

Well that’s a large size, but why is it slowing when it’s getting to the sidebar? I think most of the content is within the index.php and that doesn’t seem to have a problem loading. And the sidebar never used to have a problem loading – that’s why I’ve taken off so many of the plugins, but it’s still slow.
