Yes, I changed the color in the css.

I think that ‘jiggling’ is due to the mouse over background size being bigger than the onload size. I just went ahead and left it like that. I tweeked that template so much, there is hardly anything original left to it, lol. I also incorporated the random image thing from another template so the images and quotes changes from page to page at random.

good luck with your site!

I used coffee cup and made changes in images and css. it doesn’t look anything like it now… https://www.leadershipprogram.org

What a pain! I did that…

Big problem in that the tables don’t all have the same fields.

I’m not sure if I took the best route, but i could NOT get my mysql statements right and had to add all the missing field names one by one. I am NOT one for tedium, so it was a headache.

But my b2’s are now WP’s (I hope!). THANK GOD I don’t have anymore B2’s!!!

Now… for upgrading to 2.0… maybe. ;P

I hadn’t thought of that. I have an old distro, so that would be no problem.

And…… I’ve been wanting to try an upgrade anyway. All the 2.0’s i’m running are new installs.

I’ll let you know how it goes… ??

vkaryl…
Yes, you are right…
I have a blog that has posts that i want included in a non-blog website, completely different URL.

beze…
I don’t understand what you are trying to do… keep your posts OUT of wp?

I was talking about the support forum search, but I guess I’m talking about both, if the Codex is doing the same thing.

I make it a habit to search the forums before posting a question so as not to waste everyone’s time and energy. But I’m not able to do it now, so I will post and hope that the topic has not been covered somewhere else, because I was not able to google an answer….

sarad…
I looked at your author page and the page with the individual author info is what I am looking for. Can you share the code for that page?
thanks,
Kathy

Thanks. That did work.
Now I’ll have to see if I can tweak it so that it only gives the links to the pages, rather than the entire content.

thanks again…

I’m not sure what you mean, Vaam.
I’ve listed features I’d like to see in a classified ads plugin.

Update….
I went through the whole validation process…
first time actually. yes. shame on me. It was quite a learning experience.

Anyway, got most of the errors out of it. Now, the one error left looks as if it coming from the wp_list_pages template tag.

Got my menu lines mushed together like they should be, but I can’t get IE & FF to play nice with margins & padding. Guess that is a subject for anotheer thread…

thanks so much for helping me out (i’d be happy to hear what you have to say about the margins, padding, debate. Thanks!)

Signed,
a much calmer Kathy

Guess what… I tweaked it to work in FF – sorta, but NATURALLY, it does not work in IE… YET!

I have faith!

Ok, I can see the possibilities. However, I’m getting a big space between the child pages and the parent pages.

actually, check out the ss of the wacky menu, as I’m working on the page and it may not have the same problem when you look at it: https://kappaluppa.com/TechServ/ssofwackymenu.jpg

It seems the closing tag for the one page that has child pages has the closing in the wrong place.

thanks for the encouragement…. {sigh}

I don’t know if you found a solution yet, but the problem lies in the fact that FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON wp adds two classes when using the php wp_list_pages template tag:
It adds class=”page_item
and
current_page_item

And when it lists child pages using the page_item class it puts the closing tag for the parent pages in the wrong place, as estjohn said.

I’m trying to modify the template-functions-post.php (the only place I could find the page_item function) page,but so far to no avail!

I have no idea why WP needs to add those classes. I’ve specified formatting for them in my CSS, but because that closing tag is in the wrong place it doesn’t work.

I’ve spent HOURS UPON HOURS working on this, so if any one has an idea I SURE WOULD APPRECIATE IT!!!!
