well I don’t think that the main css file had anything in it, haha.

right… the css is in-line then. Hmm. Unfortunately this theme does not have much in the way of custom options or configuration. I guess you get what you pay for with the free themes, even though I have seen free themes with better configuration options available thru the dashboard.. this one in particular had the layout I was looking for.

Perhaps I should spend just a tad bit of scrilla on a paid theme and get it over with?

eh, there wasn’t much in the way of documentation that came with it, it was somewhat barebones. I wonder if there is anything I can do in the actual code to change that. I had another thought.. I wonder if the cause of this is that the original image is more of a rectangle shape, as I cropped the image before applying it as a store image icon, then I re-purposed the image to also use it in a post. I wonder if I re-export the original image with more white space above and below the leaf, and give it a square shape, if it will format correctly… that’s an awful lot of work for one image, but hey. Maybe I just need to pick a different theme. If I was to try to access the code to make a change of this, do you know which .css rule I should look for?

When you refer to it being an artefact… does that mean that it’s a mistake, or bug in the themes design/code?

Ahh awesome, the <!–more–> tag worked beautifully! This will be a key thing for me to know.

Changing the pages permalink also was very easy, thanks for pointing out where to do that. I’m pretty fresh to wordpress dev.

As far as the image, all I have done is uploaded it to the media library and then inserted it into the post as a medium size image (from the presets). so it looks exactly the way I intended in the post, but the formatting is crap on the excerpt.

Testing out 2010 theme:
The only 2010 theme I have available is the 2010 (1.2) version, so I also tried the 2011 (1.2) and both of these themes do not feature a thumbnail image in post excerpts (unless there is a way to turn this on that I am missing.)

So thanks for the help man! I just need to find a solution for this thumbnail image issue and I will be doing nicely ??

Cool, thanks again, I’ll check this stuff out and see how it works.

Also, I was noticing that my template is a little sparse on page navigation buttons. Are those easy to add as they become nescessary? If so, where do I make the changes?

Okay, one more question!

I was trying to add some meta tags (keywords, description) and it doesn’t seem to be working right. I added them right after the initial head tag, but they seem to be showing up on the top of my blog as text that pushes the site down the page a tad bit.

There must be something I’m doing wrong here. I just don’t know what it is, it seems like a simple task anyways, it always has been with html.

Thanks Again!

I think I’ve already answered my own question. you find it in themes. So I assume you have to add the code to the footer.php of whatever theme that your using.

I have one more question for you. Where do you find the footer.php in the theme directory. I want to ad my google adsense code to my blog. I originally added it using a plug in, because I didn’t realize you could just open up the .php and do it just like an .html file.

So I wanna dump that unnescessary plug in and do it the normal way, just adding the code before the </body> tag.

Thank you so much Simon, you are the man. Pretty simple fix, I’m glad I’m in the know about this method now.

I like your bang bang site, the template is really nice, and the content is cool I wish I could read french!

and also, the line 14 specified in the error simply contains:

<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>

That’s odd that is not the code to the file you specified, as that is what I get when I navigate to that .php file. I’ll even show you the exact directory route to it:

/public_html/prosnowboardcoach/wp-content/themes/Titan theme/functions/comments.php

Of course I double-checked, but the above code is exactly what I get when I go to edit code through my hostmonster server.

Perhaps I should do as you suggested and just delete the Titan theme, and hopefully that will give me access back to my admin panel.
