To be honest, I’ve tried cutting and pasting several CSS snippets that I’ve found. I don’t have a strong background in CSS, so I usually get by with trail and error. I can’t get anything to work.

Since encountering this issue last night, I now have a much bigger concern, which is: Nextgen doesn’t seem to be mobile compatible. It only shows the top portion of the photos on the page.

Does anyone know how to center the table of products on the main shop page? Right now, everything is aligned to the left and there is quite a bit of unnecessary margin at the top. I had the latter problem with the single product pages, but I eliminated the top margin with this code, which I added to CSS inserts:

div.product.status-publish {
margin-top: -130px;
position: relative;

}

There must be something similar I can use to customize the layout of the main shop page. I’m just not sure what the first line should say. Any help? Thanks!

That bit of code is great. How would I modify the first line so that it would affect the buttons on the main shop (“all products”) page?

Just copy the following line of code:

remove_action( ‘woocommerce_sidebar’, ‘woocommerce_get_sidebar’, 10);

Then, open the functions.php in your theme editor, and insert this line right above the “?>” at the very bottom. Click save.

Holy cow, I had the same exact problem and finally figured it out after so much searching. This seems to be a common problem, but man, it took way too much searching to solve. What I eventually learned was that WooCommerce inserts a SIDEBAR for some reason. This cursed sidebar is what’s expressing itself as that annoying “Pages, Archives, Categories” business.

Essentially, you have to nix the WC sidebar by adding the following line of code into your theme’s function.php file. I happen to use Atahualpa, but it should work for all themes. Just copy the following line of code:

remove_action( ‘woocommerce_sidebar’, ‘woocommerce_get_sidebar’, 10);

Then, open the functions.php in your theme editor, and insert this line right above the “?>” at the very bottom. Click save.

I just dumped Sociable, too. After a couple years of using it. I went with Sharing is Caring, based on the recommendations above. Took about 10 minutes to switch out and configure. Pinterest is surging in popularity, and you just have to move a little bit faster, Sociable. Like I need to explain that to the (seemingly) web-savvy. Peace!

Glad it’s not just me. Driving me nuts.

It’s starting to make sense, and thank you for your patience and your explanations. I re-downloaded the Default 1.5 theme, and copied it over the existing one, hoping that a new untampered index.php would solve the problem (I actually never changed any of the code on this page, but nonetheless it’s not working). Unfortunately, the lay-out is still wrong.

Truth be told, I am perfectly willing to start over, since my theme changes were only (a) a new JPG for the header and (b) just some rewording here and there. Since re-downloading and copying over the theme didn’t work, is there something I’m missing?

Well, now the index page is suddenly doing what the other page was doing — the sidebar is pushed all the way to the bottom. Yet every other page is fine. I swear I didn’t touch any code! Honestly! Could there be something else at work here?

I’ve noticed that the index page does the very same things when I have tried some other themes. But I really just want Default 1.5 to work — shouldn’t this be ultra-stable? The only thing I’ve done (and before this was a problem) was add a new header by overwriting kubrickheader.jpg — that’s it.

Should I try a more updated version of WP? I have 2.0.4, and I see that there is a 2.5x out there…

Okay, so I created a new page, which I didn’t know I could do, and it worked. I cut-pasted the old text into the new page. I’ve only been using WP since yesterday (entries from May were backdating from my old, clunky HTML blog).

You guys still definitely get the thumbs up for trying to help me, I’m just not very savvy in this area.

I appreciate everyone’s help, but most of this stuff is beyond me. I am really out of my league. When I look at the pages in GoLive, none of them look like the HTML that I’m more comfortable with. And I still don’t understand how one page can be out of whack, while the others are fine. Aren’t the same Style Sheets feeding all the pages?

I chose the “Kubrick” theme because I thought it would be stable. I haven’t even messed with the codes today, so I’m pretty baffled.

I pretty much get what you’re saying, stvwlf, but I’m not sure how to edit code on an individual page in this case, as strange as that sounds.

Hmmmm… It says I have 22 errors. Yet the pages that work have the same results.
