Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Uninstall to re-install?Using the theme is not the issue, continue to use it! When something goes wrong though, like it has, don’t panic and wipe everything. Themes are easy enough to restore unless you’ve done some major changes to it (which you have not, and I have added to your last topic the needed changes you want), but if you are making such deep changes to a theme you will have learned how to fix these things.

In reply to: Newbie question – Weird category behaviorPlease see your original topic here. It might be easier to simply reply to your own topic with the link next time, instead of making another post with the link fixed.

In reply to: Newbie question – Weird category behaviorFor your second question, you will need to edit the category template page and set up the loop so it is not the excerpt, however, bear in mind if you have a lot of post in the category it may overload the user with reading. Simply having n excerpt makes it quicker for a reader to find what they are looking for, but to each their own, and your circumstances may be for full post.
as to your first, can you please provide linkage? I would double and triple check to make sure that the category is in your category list in the backend as well as that post really being in that category, then I would check my main index and ensure that the loop is fine and dandy.

Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Uninstall to re-install?Check your previous topic, I replied to it regarding the header.php which might save you the time. By the way, dont completely wipe your wp installation, as it is the theme you messed up, not the wp itself. If anything else (after reading this topic again), simply remove the theme and reupload it.

In reply to: “Home” removalDownload the theme again, go to you filemanager in cPanel (or open an ftp client) and simply copy the contents of the fresh header.php from the download into your header.php file in your theme (or upload the new header.php file to your themes directory using the ftp client). This should fix the error there. Keep a copy of Mandigo untouched and unedited so that you can recover if it happens again.
To remove your home link, you will need to remove this section of the code in your header.php file:
<li class="page_item"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php _e('Home', 'mandigo'); ?></a></li>
I’m not familiar with this theme, and it looks to be filled to the brim with other code, but with that
- tag removed, the only pages that should display from this point on are your ‘pages’ as they should normally.

In reply to: Templates good for general websites?One of the beautiful things about using wp as a cms is the backend, which makes not only adding content a breeze, but editing current content as well. There are many themes suited to this purpose, so start by browsing the theme section here, and also consider purchasing a premium theme (which are heavily designed with these types of sites in mind.

In reply to: I want a sidebar on all pagesYou will need to edit your single post template and add the sidebar to the source coding. Simply copy the important part of the single post template (ie. – the loop for single post) and then take your front page template and paste it into your single post template, changing to full loop to your single post. This will take the sidebar and add it to all single post pages.
You can do the same for all pages, including search and archive, as you see fit.

In reply to: Error 404 search form not working?!Bump, I hope to be able to find a resolution to this, but these forum just fly by the seat of their pants and so many issues never even get a response.

In reply to: Error 404 search form not working?!To note, I haven’t done any IE fixes, so if that is your chosen browser, simply test the functionality, not aesthetics.

In reply to: Editing date/timeI’m giving this one friendly bump. I am wanting to change details about the date and time, not needing info on how to change the date and time for a post or page, but what those dates and times are called.
I suppose I should add, as it seems this post just became an open-ended conversation instead of a discussion that might be found worthy of an answer, has anyone either heard of something closely related to this I might be able to find more information about, or where might I get my feet wet in the subject matter? I ask that you ignore my previous comment about not even being able to pull time using php without google… that statement is true, but this is an opportunity for me to start learning the depths of php and mysql.
