Did you fix it? It doesn’t look smushed, but when I looked at it with Web Inspector, I see what you mean. Maybe the sizing is determined in a js file?

Thank you for your reply. You know, I think I made a mistake by installing WooCommerce PLUGIN and then thinking it would be best to start with one of their free WooCommerce THEMES to go with it.

I guess I sort of assumed a lot of the functionality wouldn’t be included in just the plugin. By “functionality,” I’m referring to typical stuff like slideshows based on inventory or whatever.

Do you have any recommendations for CSS manipulation? Or do you mean just install the plugin and get to work inspecting the CSS with Firebug / Inspector?

ah you posted while I was posting… so, just my luck to discover this problem before it is even noticed by WP staff. ??

hectavex, that’s good to know… should I take it that the whole WP community including the WP team itself knows of and is working on this issue?

Ah… what the hell? This is my first WP site and I have run right into this crap myself.

Just posted this in Installation:

WordPress seems to be installed and running fine, but whenever I search for any plugins, I get a No Results Found.

It doesn’t matter what I search for. I started searching for “JSON API” and got No Results Found.

Then, I started clicking the “Popular” and “New” links to see if it would find ANY plugins, but it won’t. No Results Found all around.

Actually I don’t see how custom posts can do what I need at all. Categories might work…

I would think I need to have something like this, actually:

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php query_posts(“posts_per_page=1&cat=7”); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

I have no idea how the F to code properly, of course, but posts_per_page=1&cat=7 is my way of thinking to tell WP to grab the LAST post of CATEGORY 7 and spit it out. Perhaps there needs to be an echo or who knows what, but this ain’t working.

Can you tell me how to properly code that?

THANK YOU! I am lucky you happened to be around! You just saved me several hours if not days of experimenting.

Or should I be using category templates and somehow include an if else statement in the loop something like…

<?php if (is_category('1')) {??>
[some code to import most recent post to this category]
<?php } elseif (is_category('2)) {??>
[some code to import most recent post to this category]
<?php if (is_category('3')) { ?>
[some code to import most recent post to this category]
<?php } elseif (is_category('4)) { ?>
[some code to import most recent post to this category]
<?php }??>

[Please post code snippets between backticks or use the code button.]

I really am not familiar with how categories work at all, but that seems like it might be a solution, too.

The blog is going to be separate. Also, there won’t be comments or any other bloggy type stuff on these pages, so it is easier just to treat them as pages (I think).

It especially seems easier for a person to easily distinguish which are pages and which are blogposts since the admin panel separates Pages and Posts. With custom post types, I think it would be a lot more complicated. Is there some advantage to that I’m missing or where you just curious?
