Thanks Esme but Its a fresh clean install today (from a one click provider hence its 3.1 not 3.1.1 !)

So twentyten theme and no plugins…

There is a great plugin called widget logic. You can specify what widgets you want to show on which page, or which type of page eg single.

This should work for you.

Thanks both – at least im not going mad!

Hi Esmi – got rid off all the plugins but still no joy!! Argh!

Thanks Esme. This site DOES have at least one plugin I havent used before so I will have a wander down this route. Im using twentyten although Ive made a child theme as ive added some graphics to the nav bar.

I wont be able to try it out and post my finding till Tuesday though due to weekend and halfterm holiday stuff going on.

Really appreciate you help as ever ??

I think so. I have contacted my hosts about the problem and they are normally pretty good at spotting that sort of thing. I have multo domain hosting and its working fine on other sites they host. The permalinks of being rewritten as I can see this in the URL – its just this weird random wrong pages being shown.

Hi Esmi –

I finally got this one figured by searching for hours! Someone made a comment on a thread that if you change size settings you have to completely reupload the image to be used.

I had been unlinking and relinking within the page. Once I deleted and uploaded again it took the parameter as specified in the function overide code you kindly gave me before.

Thanks once again!

Hi Esmi,

Thanks for the response but this took the title off every page.
Not to worry – I decided yesterday after trying and trying without sucess to alter the homepage image and take the text off so it loooks ok with the title on the homepage now.

Thanks for your help.

Dont suppose you have recently upgraded WP to the version 3.0.1?(i think) where search engines are turned off by default?

Thanks Esmi

That has worked for the main header image but not for the header on the others pages when i use the featured image.

Any chance you can help with the code for this. Im no PHP whizz!

PS – going to try though!

Hi – I tried several plugins but I found them very hard to configure.

So my solution was to use the open source PHPBB (many hosts have a one click installation for this very popular app) and then link to it from wordpress – if you are using WP 3 and the theme support menus its easy to add an external link to point to the PHPBB install.

oh wow – great!

Thank you!

Thanks so much esmi :o)

I guess if you’re a frequent theme swapper like me you have to reupload the images to get the right size!

Thanks esmi – but i do have that ticked already.

I have noticed though that its cropping my large images to a max width of 640 (even though ive asked for 940).

Is this because Im using 2010 thame and its clever enough to realise the post width (to allow for a sidebar) is 640px?
