  • You can use text widget as you can have html code in widget.

    I have dragged text widget into sidebar and opened it to put my link for banner in,then clicked on save button but nothing showing on my site!! does anyone have the answer to this please?

    put my link for banner in,

    what code exactly did you add in the textwidget?

    for a banner, you would need something like:

    <a href="http://link_url"><img src="http://image_url" alt="" /></a>

    it might help if you would post a link to your site.

    im copy and pasting the banner link from another site-

    <div style="text-align:center">
    <a href="http://www.muchloved.com/" title="Online Memorial Websites">
    <img src="http://www.muchloved.com/banners/banner150x80.gif" alt="Online Memorial Websites" height="80" width="150" border="0"/>
    </a>
    
    <a href="http://www.muchloved.com/" title="Online Memorial Websites">www.muchloved.com</a>
    </div>

    my site is- http://www.tendingmemories.com

    [Please post code snippets between backticks or use the code button.]

    Did you save once you added the code in text widget

    I copied code from the site,went in appearance then clicked on widgets. Then dragged the text widget to sidebar into the ‘before page content,
    Thats where i pasted the code and saved,but nothing appeared??

    Try with a break in code

    <div style="text-align:center">
    <a href="http://www.muchloved.com/" title="Online Memorial Websites">
    <img src="http://www.muchloved.com/banners/banner150x80.gif" alt="Online Memorial Websites" height="80" width="150" border="0"/>
    </a>
    <br>
    <a href="http://www.muchloved.com/" title="Online Memorial Websites">www.muchloved.com</a>
    </div>

    How is it possible to change the colour of the writing in the header? Ive tried the obvious but it wont let me as maybe its embedded? Also my home page has a pink bar/section at the top left of home page so how can i extend my picture to cover this or to blend in somehow?? {http://www.tendingmemories.com}

    You mean “Tending Memories” this your title and you can change the css here

    http://www.tendingmemories.com/wp-content/themes/purple-pastels/layout.css and look for this code

    #blogtitle h1 span {
    display: block;
    font-size: 0.65em;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
    margin: 0 200px 0 0;
    padding: 0;
    text-indent: 1em;
    }

    You will need add
    color:#hexcolorcode;(example #ffff00 for yellow)

    to change font color.

    Looks like you trying cover the original header with your own and your header is slightly narrower

    Icant work that link out and it doesn’t mention css in theme options! this one has really got me stuck my friend,would it be pos for anyone out there to change this for me?
    i.e-the writing light blue and the image covering pink area?

    To make change in css file you need to use editor you will not find it theme options.
