I, like you, couldn’t find anything to do with this anywhere on the web, and it’s such a fundamental thing you’d think it’d be built right into WP.. oh well, maybe next time.

Ok, if you want to go digging round in your core WP code, you need to edit /wp-includes/functions.php between lines 1216 and 1248 ( a function called wp_die() )

Just edit the core html it outputs, I just changed the title and the logo but you can obviously go crazy if you want. Hope this helps!

thanks guys! keep ’em coming?

Yeah, that’s sort of what I’m after, but I’d like all the pings backs separate to the comments, regardless of when they were posted. Any ideas?

Thanks!!

I tried echo’ing the var $post_id in the loop, but nothing happened. This would be most useful if we could access the var’s for each database field for each post with a variable!

Any other ideas? Thanks!

sorry folks, it’s back up! I switched to textdrive.

whoops! erm, forgot that… Does anyone know what tag’ll give me the rss for the comments outside of the loop?

Hey varios, if you want to remove the sidebar, you need to take out all the following lines of code when they appear in the template files…

<div id=”right_col”>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>

It may be that you want to leave the div in there and put something else in the sidebar file. Otherwise I’d modify the css file and extend #left_col to cover the entire width of the site.

Hope this helps, if not email me. or comment on the theme site https://www.roobottom.com/wp_theme/

WOW! This is excellent! What a creative, original use of Word Press. This guy/gal should release this as a theme, it’d be very popular.

You can now download version 0.5 with page support @ https://www.roobottom.com/wp_theme/

erm, I sort of hacked the Word Press source code so my diary automatically generates those thumbnails from the original large image from the upload. I’ll turn this into a plug-in when I get some time, that’s if no-one beats me to it!

Jinsan, target the just the images in your right hand column then.. like this…

#post img {
css here;
}

wait a minute! that’s not my theme.

As for the wrapping around the images, checkout my theme css..

#left_col img {
float: left;
margin: 5px 5px 0 0;
padding: 1px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;

}

img float left will wrap text around, then set up your margin to push the text away from the right and bottom of the img.

Any more support questions please post comments at https://www.roobottom.com/wp_theme/ thank you!

hmmm, I like this a lot. It looks a little “packed in” in some places, especially the side bar. Looks a little like this (only much nicer). Keep up the good work!

mdrdsr, have a look at my source and css. All the answers you seek are in there. The best way to learn css is by looking at other peoples.
