Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Looking for a Full-Width slider with auto-sizing imageThat is a nice slider but like all the others implementations I have looked at adjusting only the height of a window does not rescale the image. I am not an expert on CSS but perhaps it is the way the div is defined not to react to height changes just width changes.
div class="flex-viewport" style="overflow: hidden; position: relative;"> <ul class="slides" style="width: 2400%; transition-duration: 0s; transform: translate3d(0px, 0px, 0px);"> <li class="flex-active-slide" style="width: 992px; float: left; display: block;"> <img src="images/kitchen_adventurer_cheesecake_brownie.jpg"> </li>

In reply to: [W3 Total Cache] FTP credentials don't allow to write to file /.htaccessWhat really seems strange is the lack of any support since so many seem to be experiencing this. I am currently paying someone who is hopefully more capable than me to install and configure the plugin. I will report back anything I learn.

In reply to: [Redirection] [Plugin: Redirection] How to implement pliuginAs a follow-up, I guess what I really want to do is a 301 redirect with everything that causes a 404 error to my new home page.

In reply to: Display time since post was publishedHi – did you ever solve this – I want to do the same thing.
I see some very outdated plugins that had this functionality but too old for me to use.

In reply to: Generating a dynamic "Read More" linkAgain – I solved issue this on my own.
This Forum turns out to be a pretty poor resource – It seems that nobody wants to answer posts and I am sure this was an easy one for even a medium level PHP / WP programmer.

In reply to: Can't Style StickyI know this is an old post but I have the same issue as this person had where I cannot style a sticky post. The sticky class was not in my css anywhere so I added it. That is irrelevant at this point because the class is not referenced anywhere in the page source.
Any help is appreciated – I do want to highlight sticky posts in some fashion. I am familiar with the coding to some degree – I am using a template I purchased but customized heavily for my purpose.
The top post titled “New Perspective” is sticky.

In reply to: Removing as form from my pageWell I just figured it out. I needed to put the editor into visual mode and remove the short code.

In reply to: How to work best with WordPressThanks for all the help. I have learned a lot from the links above. I elected to install WP on my hosted server.
I also purchased a theme, actually several and I want to learn how to incorporate the best of both so I will be learning PHP and the best way to do development which I am sure will be on my local machine. Then upload the files to my hosted server.
I am pretty good with ASP/HTML/CSS so hopefully PHP won’t be too horrific.
I am currently researching how to load the demo data for the theme I purchased (it is an xml file).
