In reply to: Move entire site to the center.NoobWithout seeing any of the code, it’s a bit tricky, but….
You could try adding this to your css:
body {margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;}

In reply to: New blog theme, please let me know what you think.What kind of widget is it that you are searching for – to do what?
I agree with nietdan – the 2 columns of actual content on the front page are far too narrow. I never made it past the first page.

In reply to: Someone is adding adsense to my blogsAt the risk of stating the obvious:
Adwords ads can’t be displayed on a page unless the code is there to call them.
Check through your template files, and if there is code there that you didn’t add, then delete it.
If you have any concerns that someone other than you has access to the files on your webserver, then change the ftp password, if you think that someone other than you may have access to your wp admin, then change that password also.
EDIT:
having just looked at the site and realised that it is all just an advert for some kind of water, and that you are probably only posting something here to increase traffic, I feel like a bit of an idiot for replying. Hope I’m wrong.Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: My First WordPress Site – Opinions Please!I like it, I haven’t had a chance to have a deeper looks, but I do have two suggestions just from the front page.
It would probably be a good idea to make the email address in your footer a mailto link.
I’m also not sure about the navigation. I clicked on ‘photography in ibiza’ expecting to go to another page, but I remained on the front page. Maybe this should be renamed to home, or something similar, and it is standard convention that it is the first link in the navigation, but you have it as second. People expect to find it first, and web users generally like to find things where they expect them to be.
I think it looks very nice though. ??

In reply to: Gibberish commentsDo you have the akismet plugin enabled?
That should stop the huge majority of this kind of spam.

In reply to: My Celebrity Gossip BlogIt looks quite neat and tidy, if a little bit generic. I’m not a fan of pink text on white, it’s quite difficult to read on my laptop screen in sunlight right now.
One good thing is that you have daily updated content.
One bad thing, that I really don’t like is that if I click on the ‘forum’ link, I get a message that I have to be logged in to post, I didn’t want to post, I just wanted to see what was there, and I’m not going to register for a forum until I can at least see that it has some content.

In reply to: I Love Word PressFor some reason I couldn’t get the site to fully open, I’m in a hotel lobby at the moment and the wi-fi connection isn’t great, but I don’t think it is that slow.
Maybe I’ll give it another go a bit later, but it seemed to be taking forever.What did manage to open was an advert for some sms sending website, which beeped loudly at me. As with all intrusive sounding adverts, unless there is something really interesting that I need on the page, I just close it as the easiest way to stop the noise.

In reply to: Children’s Birthday Party BlogMy first impression is that the front page is very very busy. A hell of a lot of adverts, big long lists of categories, tags, etc. and a lot of seemingly random colour choices.
I know that it’s for kids parties and therefore should be bright, bold and fun, but my eyes just didn’t know where to go, and I actually scrolled up and down a couple of times, but didn’t really read any content.

In reply to: Excluding pages from tabsYes, it does. It’s just not in header.php.
header.php calls a function called art_menu_items
art_menu_items is defined in functions.php in the template.
That is where you would need to change it to exclude certain pages, I’ll have a deeper look later, and see the best way to do it.

In reply to: Excluding pages from tabsFind the wp_list_pages function in your template files, it is probably in header.php.
Add an exclude parameter to the function, like this
<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=17,38' ); ?>
Replace the ‘17,38’ with the ID numbers of the pages that you don’t want to show.
