    Thanks Samboll! Is there a way to change the ordering of the categories (not the links within the categories but the order of the categories themselves?

    This appears to be done alphabetically. My previous workaround to this was to add a space at the beginning of those I wanted at the top. This no longer works.

    I’m really confused here. Previously I had a set of links down the sidebar grouped into categories. How do I get this to display this way again?

    Some of my links went to internal pages, and others when to external sites. It seems that the categories for the links have been merged.

    The stuff above seems to be talking about showing categories as well. I just want to show my blogrolls. Is there a way to do this now?

    I would have recommended Inmotion.net before two days ago. They’ve been great up until then. But they’ve just started with an apparently bogus “you’re using up our server resources – pay more or get dropped” sales pitch. So I’m now in the same boat as you. ??

    Apparently Dreamhost uses the same tactic.

    I’m over at InMotion.net and have just started getting nasty-grams about server resources usage, and have already been bumped to Level 2 help. This really came across as an upsell to me. Considering my blog access is rather small (9000 hits a day), this really didn’t make sense. While moving to another ISP sounds like a real drag, the upsell approach really doesn’t sit well with me.

    I see “asmallorange.com” mentioned above – has anyone tried this, and if so, do they handle the CPU usage thing differently?

    I didn’t think I’d modified the comments query at all. Is there anything else for this volume of traffic to a WordPress site that would cause spikes in server resources use?

    Does this plugin work in WordPress 2.0?

    If not, is there a comparable one that does?

    Not really, its more like this:

    blahblahblah paragraph
    <p.>&nbsp.;</p.>
    <p.>&nbsp.;</p.>
    blah blah blah paragraph
    <p.>&nbsp.;</p.>
    <p.>&nbsp.;</p.>

    You just do that between each paragraph and it goes fine.

    tedlow, just do more than one of those “p” lines for every extra blank space you want. As many of those as you put, it will add one more space. This is just basic HTML – nothing fancy here – no CSS mods needed.

    As an example, I just added an additional line on the following page to show you:

    View the source and you’ll see what I mean.

    Nevermind, I thought about it a second and just modified it as follows:

    <title>sitename <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

    I lose out on the tagline on the home page, but this is not too bad I suppose. Thanks again.

    Hi Dennis. Thanks for the response, but this wasn’t really what I was looking for. Also, when I replace that code as you state, I don’t get a title showing up at all on my main blog page, and the individual entries then just show the title as the name of the post (meaning the sitename isn’t called out then).

    I was looking for a way to keep the existing functionality, but to just reverse the order so that it would show:

    “Sitename | Page Name (or tagline)”

    Currently it shows:

    “Page Name (or tagline) | Sitename”

    Yes, put a “p” tag in with a blank space called out.

    So, it would look like this:

    p> &-n-b-s-p-; </p

    Remove the dashes and close the “p” tags on each side and it will work perfectly. Just add one of these lines for every blank space you want.

    Hi Gary, I like the color scheme but there is a section on your sidebar where the font is LOTS larger than the rest (at least when viewing in Firefox). Starting with “Navigation ” up until you get to “Category” something seems amiss.

    Also, you have lots of categories listed there, but no real items in some of them. Perhaps one thought would be to hide the categories till you have posts for them.

    Looks great in Firefox. I tend to like the entry column a little wider but everyone has different preferences.

    As Gnorb mentioned, the frames in Firefox force you to scroll. In Internet Explorer, its far worse. The Sidebar doesn’t show up till you get to the bottom of the posts. The posts take the space to the right that the frame slider handled in Firefox.

    EDIT: the color scheme is fine though.

    I see Spencerp, Yeah, that is a problem. I need to figure out how to move everything to the right. I’ve been trying to work around the nav-bar, which I cannot seem to figure out where it calls out its location, but yeah, that’s too far to the left. Let me see if I can figure something out.

    EDIT: Spencerp, try now. I added 10 pixels (I think) to the left side. And again, I truly appreciate you taking the time to help me!
