This thread actually covers what to look for in the DB.

This is generally a theme issue and you’d want to edit the CSS files inside your theme (or hardcode the html).

For further help, we’d need to see an address of your blog so we can see what theme you’re using, etc.

Sounds like the Installed Location and/or URL was mistyped when you installed WordPress. Can you get into your admin panel at all? This would be yoururl/prayerblog/wp-admin

After logging in, it may attempt to shoot you to your 404, but after that, try entering yoururl/prayerblog/wp-admin/options-general.php to update the addresses.

If that doesn’t work, you’re going to need to manually edit the entries in your Database.

Doh! Completely forgot about that… Thanks for the reminder Dossy.

Well, by default, WP allows anonymous access to content that is Published. Could you list your blog address so we can see the issue at hand?

Could be a bad install, but it’s more likely this.

It’s actually in the same table. You can browse the table manually (the “Host” option is usually on the second page in phpMyAdmin) or try the following:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = ‘https://www.sshrmanj.org/blog/’ WHERE option_value = ‘https://server302.tchmachines.com/~xicjilzj/blog/’ AND option_name = ‘home’

Note: the bad address in that query – make sure it’s set to the non-matching address from the previous query.

I ran into something like this last night while testing DB issues. In addition to the query dossy suggested, run the following:

select option_value from wp_options where option_name = ‘home’;

or both:

SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = ‘home’ OR option_name = ‘siteurl’

They should match. If not, you’ll need to edit.

Quick and dirty:

<?php
if(is_home()) {

		echo "<li>
		<span class='head'>LATEST NEWS</span>
		</li>";
	        echo "<ul>";

		$lastposts = get_posts('numberposts=5');

		foreach($lastposts as $post) :
		setup_postdata($post);
    		?>
			<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
		<?php
		echo " <small>posted on: ";
		echo the_time('F j, Y') . "</small></li><br />";
		endforeach; 

		echo "</ul>";
} elseif (is_category(3) ||.....

This’ll help in the future if you continue to custom code.

…I stand corrected. Someone has created a plugin to do what you want.

Michael,

What you’re describing is what happened to me when I forced a permissions downgrade on the DB user. Hmm.

Well, if you’re using widets, the only real way would be to write a custom widget plugin to do what you want.

What are you trying to do? There may already be a solution.

The quickest way:

Put the <center> tag in front of the Adsense block and </center> after it.

After downloading twitter-tools, line 570 in the file is the “What I’m doing..” line. You can also edit this inside the Widget panel by clicking on the Twiter-Tools Menu on the right hand side of that Widget.

If you both are still having problems with it, you may need to contact the plugin author.

Widgets don’t allow code to be posted within the text blocks from the Widget Menu. Simple HTML, JavaScript, and CSS are Ok, but no PHP.
