    on to installing a forum. any recommendations Sweeper? i’m trying out bbPress right now.

    i decided to just go with the “slideshow-jquery-image-gallery” plugin from the repository. it’s working fine. i just need something simple and easy for the end users (clients). could use a little more control for what i’d like though. what i don’t like is that the images fade and reveal the background. so there’s a nice huge empty space there for a bit! many of the slider plugins do not work in my custom theme. obviously something i need to look at when creating a custom theme. so far only wow slider and this one are compatible.
    thanks for your input sweeper!
    cheers

    as far as i can tell everything should be fine. i’m relatively new at creating custom themes & templates though. the plug in does work when i convert quickly back to 2010. so my guess is, it is the custom theme… even though nextgen states this as a feature of theirs… tha tit works well in custom themes….

    thanks for your response sweeper!

    thanks sweeper, it is working as desired now.

    however, neither WP_Query() or get_posts() feed the loop to the sidebar. i’m likely doing something incorrect. i’m also not sure how to reset a query. i will read the link you’ve provided.

    everything seems to be functioning as intended and designed, i believe i can finish the styling and adding more content and deliver this baby.

    thank you very much for the awesome assistance! very much appreciated.

    it isn’t a wideget. i’m using the loop in my sidebar. this is my blogroll feed code from my sideebar file….

    <!-- start blogroll feed -->
            <?php query_posts('showposts=2'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<a>" rel="bookmark" title="link to <?php /*the_title();*/ ?>"><?php /*the_title();*/ ?></a>
<?php /* How to display all other posts. */ ?>

		<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
			<div class="entry-title"><a>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'link to %s', 'thepowerofthebrush' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>           

            <div class="entry-meta">
				<?php thepowerofthebrush_posted_on(); ?>
			</div><!-- .entry-meta --> 

<?php
global $more;
$more = 0;
?>
<!--//The code must be inserted ahead of the call the_content, but AFTER the_post()-->
<?php the_content('Read more?→'); ?> 

            <div class="entry-content">
				<?php the_content( __( '<span class="meta-nav">Read more?→</span>', 'thepowerofthebrush' ) ); ?>
			</div><!-- .entry-content -->
            </div><!-- #post-## -->

<?php endwhile; // End the loop. Whew. ?>

<!-- end blogroll feed -->
