Your server is set up not to allow viewing of a directory if there is no index file. You have one (index.php) in each of the archive links, but your server doesn’t recognize that. Talk to your server admin to get them to change that.

You are correct about adding the divs in index.php and editing wp-layout.css to change the border. You don’t need to specify height in the sideboxes though. Try out the web developer extension for Mozilla Firefox to edit the CSS and have a live preview before uploading your changes. Very helpful.

Interesting site. I often read Nutrition Action.

I’ll take a look at your site if you give me the URL.

I’m not sure if this will work, but you can try the following. Bold items are changes. I also deleted some of the position: relative; entries.

#content {
width: 420px;
margin: 0;
background: #fff;
text-align: justify;
float: left;
}

#sidebar {
float: right;
width: 180px;
padding: 0px;
background: #fff;
text-align: justify;
font-family: Trebuchet MS;
color: #000;
font-size: 8pt;
line-height: 11pt;
}

#footer {
font-size: 7pt;
color: #000;
top: 5px;
width: 700px;
margin: 5px 0;
clear: both;
}

You should do a search on the forum. Anyway, check out the trackback section on this site:

Add this to your CSS file:

#menu h2 {
font-size: 1.4em;
}

You can also change any password to whatever you want by using the Handy Md5 Hash Calculator and pasting the resulting string into your database.

You should look into Kitten’s Show Categories plugin. I used it to only show categories on the index that were posted to cat 1 and anything that was cross-listed with cat 1 and cat x. Get it here:

Are you using the stock template or have you edited it in any way?

Try changing the character encoding from unicode to ISO-8859-1.

You can do this under Options–>Reading–>Encoding for pages and feeds.

If that doesn’t work, try replacing all ‘ with & #39;
(omit the space between & and #, the message board would preformat my post)

A T_STRING error: I think that means that the code has mismatched quotation marks somewhere. Perhaps a comma or semicolon is in the wrong place too. Maybe someone with a better eye than me can spot the culprit.

I found that it works if I use the following:

<?php show_category_posts('category=1'); ?>

However, after I click on a category, it only shows items in category 1 or cross listed in category 1.
