In reply to: Question about Forms CSSWell what I did was remove the CSS from the plugin itself, so that the contactform css is only in the style sheet. Is that ok?

In reply to: Question about Forms CSSMoshu – I put the links drop down on a test exits page so you can see what I’m talking about. The “change” button is there, but there is still that weird cream-colored background and the dropdown menu is gray: https://www.themutteringmuse.com/index.php/exits-menu/
I also removed the contact form CSS from the header, but now I can’t figure out how to remove the funky cream colored background. Doh!
I know, I suck at CSS and PHP. Thanks for being so patient with me! ??

In reply to: Question about Forms CSSYes, I removed the change button when I got tired of messing around with CSS. ?? I’ll put it back in later today and try deleting the second stylesheet in the header. Thanks Moshu.

In reply to: Excerpt thumbnails on main pageKafkaesqui that worked, thanks! The only thing I’m not sure about is how to use get_posts to offset the thumbnails since there is a new thumb class?
Also, how can I get the thumbnails to change when people click on the images? So, for example, when they click on the main image 1 and see image 2 they see thumbnails for 3 and 4 on the sidebar?
Thank you so much, I’m in awe of how much you and dss know about php.

In reply to: Excerpt thumbnails on main pageOk, I tried that, but inserting:
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php query_posts(‘showposts=2’); ?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>into side.inc broke the main post area. So I ended up with two thumbnails in the sidebar and a “sorry, no posts matched your criteria” in the main image section.
I’m probably doing something wrong, sorry about that. I’m not good with PHP. Thank you for your help though, I really appreciate it.

In reply to: Excerpt thumbnails on main pageI tried using this in the sidebar.inc but I got an error message when I tried to load the site:
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(‘showposts=2’); ?><?php endwhile; ?>

In reply to: Excerpt thumbnails on main pageKafkaesqui, but wouldnt calling query_posts put the larger main post image in the sidebar instead of the excerpt thumbnails?
Also, how do I make it so the excerpts are offset by one?
Thank you for your help, I’m reading through the codex on the loop.

In reply to: Excerpt thumbnails on main pageI thought of that but wouldn’t it call all the excerpts the way it does in the archives? Im not sure how to limit it to one or two thumbnails.

In reply to: Previous/Next Excerpt?I’d also like to know how to do this. Anyone have ideas?

In reply to: List LinksGeez, sorry. I just saw a post on a similar topic and thought I’d post a follow up question. ??
Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: List LinksFor some reason when I can’t list my links in the pages of my blog at https://themutteringmuse.com . Niether wp_get_links() or wp_get_linksbyname() lists anything, I just get a blank page. Check it out: https://www.themutteringmuse.com/?page_id=395
Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong? Thanks so much!

In reply to: Changed domain names, but not serversNevermind, I fixed it! I had to delete the archives structure in the “Permalink” section and leave it blank. Don’t know why, but it worked.

In reply to: Positioned ElementsThanks Vkaryl! I’m glad you like my photos. ??
You wouldn’t, by any chance, be able to help me with this would you? I hope?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Changed domain names, but not serversAlso, one more thing, in case this info helps:
When you click on the post permalink WP will send you to, for example: https://www.themutteringmuse.com/archives/2005/11/17/how-it-happened/
and that returns an Error 404. But if you replace the mutteringmuse.com part with akakestrel.com/muse/ it works.I logged into my FTP program and there isn’t an archive folder… so I’m just completely confused about where WP is sending people?
