Okay, I know this is a dumb question, but how do I update the theme without having to delete the older version and reinstall the newer version? Thanks.

Sure. I’ll give it a try and let you know what happens.

That would be GREAT Brian. Another feature that I think would make it that much better is the ability to add widgets to a side bar. For instance, I’m trying to figure out how to add a log-in form to my site (https://www.videobusinessanswers.com) and it would also be nice to have space to add advertisements and links to other content within the site.

Also, the home page posts are set to be in ascending order. I had to change it to DEC in the back end. Since this is a “recent answers” section, I think it makes sense for these to have the newest post first instead of at the bottom.

Thanks for your support!

Okay, after digging in for a while, I found where to change the order of posts on the home page.

Go to index.php (line 50) in the GuruQ theme and change the ‘ASC’ at the end of the string to ‘DEC’

<?php
query_posts( array( ‘post__not_in’ => $do_not_duplicate, ‘category_name’ => GURUQ_CAT, ‘posts_per_page’ => 100, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ => ‘DEC’ ) );

I changed the number of posts per page in that string of code but nothing happened. Then, I found this line in the code and made the change which resulted in success.

<?php
query_posts( array( ‘post__not_in’ => $do_not_duplicate, ‘category_name’ => GURUQ_CAT, ‘posts_per_page’ => 100, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ) );
