FIGURED IT OUT!!! HOT DAMN!!! I’ll post the solution on my blog.

Bump for a good cause?

Good show! Glad to hear you got it figured out… Yes those double quotes can be pesky sometimes!

Mark as resolved? ??

I checked your site in FFox 2 and IE6… Your site uses one theme in FFox, and the kubrick theme in IE6.

I don’t know if this is by design or something else…

Being that this is happening, I would look into that first before the header image.

Edit: Nevermind, you must have been updating it during the time I was posting this message. It shows up fine now in both browsers.

Only the administrator of the site can disable the RTE. Talk to him/her to do that.

I figured it out.

What I did was create a template called client.php, and inserted this code:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Client
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
<div id="contentLeft">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
<div class="post">
<h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title();?></h2>
<div class="entrytext">
<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page &raquo;
'); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</div>
<?php include ('sidebar-client.php'); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>


Then I created a file called sidebar-client.php, and inserted this code:


<div id="sidebar">
<div id="contentRight">
<!--first/center column-->
<?php
// portfolio page/sub-pages
if (is_page()) {
echo '<h4>Noteworthy Notes</h4>
These examples are a small smattering of both my personal and professional work in recent years.

'; }
// That's all, folks!
?>
<!--first/center column-->
</div>
</div>


I edited all the pages for the portfolio items to use the template called client and was able to consolidate my custom sidebar into those pages, using 1 conditional, and not 6 like I was doing before. Easy peasy. Thanks Handy.

So let’s say that I have six child pages for the portfolio category, I create a template called client.php and use that template for each of the pages under portfolio. Then, I use that instead of the if statement. That’s how I understood that link you sent.

I don’t know much about that, but isn’t sorta the same thing? Pardon my ignorance LOL.

And another question… how do i do the same thing with Categories?

For instance:

Category 1
Dec 2 – A Post Redux
Dec 1 – A Post

Category 2
Nov 30 – Hello World

Nevermind, got it. I used https://justinblanton.com/projects/smartarchives/ and hacked the PHP around to get the desired effect.

I’ll try an include to see what happens. I fear that it might not make a difference, since it’s really an include inside another include.

Zoutesnor:

I have a template file that I use for my blog (I am running WP 2 as a CMS and a blog all in one) and on the blog template file (blog.php), the footer shows up.

However, I see your point that there is no author for the 404 page. I hope in future releases this is supported for a number of reasons, one of them being Diane’s point of view.

BTW, I really like your site Diane.

Personally, I wouldn’t want the average joe looking at my robots.txt file. There are things in there that a private (ie, secret URLs) that are private for a reason.

So, going back to whooami’s question, why do you want to do this?

Did you try using é for the Flash part? I’m not a Flash person, but I think that would do the trick.
