A pretty easy solution is to use css3 multiple columns, but, be aware that it won’t work on older browsers and IE.

Which url are you accessing?

That looks like either: a. a plugin b.some custom coding in the theme. Does the blog have any plugins installed? If so, look for anything slider-y, most have an options page to set what displays there: which posts, categories, etc.

You could try fetching the feed of the blog.

Can you show us your code? I know you said you’re using the one Josh provided but sometimes the devil is in the details :).

I think removing/commenting out that line should do it, but, I highly suggest you download a copy of the .htaccess first, edit it, and then re-upload it. That way, if something doesn’t work, you’ll just need to re-upload the original again. ??

The class that makes ’em switch back and forth is this one:

table tr.alt td {
	background: #f5f5f5;
}

in line 1929 of your default.css.

You can either remove/overwrite that styling or look into the template for the profile and remove the class from the even rows of the table.

You were right, it is ul.children. Specifically, you want to change this class: commentlist ul.children in line 776 on your default.css. If you remove this line:

background: #f5f5f5;

You should see the blue background the parent comment has.

Keep in mind that paths are case sensitive, so Images is different than images. Other than that, if you have a css file inside a folder, say, css and the images folder is not inside that same folder, you need to go up one directory: url(../images/etc):

Theme
--images
--css

Glad you solved it!

Sure! Notepadd++ is pretty decent, and free. Sublime Text 2 is not free, but it includes and unlimited trial. There are a lot more, but it depends on your platform.

Yes! Connect through filezilla and upload the files (drag and drop or double click), just as when you installed wordpress, except wp-content.

You’re missing a file. Try re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder – from a fresh download of WordPress.

It is possible using box-shadow. It won’t work on older browsers, though.

Then you just have a syntax error. Open the file theme-options.php, go to the line 81 and look for an unescaped string, missing semicolon, etc. If you open the file with an editor with syntax highlighting you’ll spot the issue right away.
