    Hi, well actually yes, but I had to implement manually infinite scroll and I had to unbind the .infscr every time when the main menu was clicked. Something like:

    $("#AboutContentFilter").click(function(){
    			$("body").load('about');
    			$(window).unbind('.infscr');

    And of course for every menu item. Maybe it’s not the best solution but it works (FF, Chrome, Safari – Windows/MAC etc.) The single problem is that the loading time is increased a bit but maybe I will be able to balance it from other elements (images, compressing etc.) or with a quick JS makeover … Will dig around more when I`ll have some spare time.

    You have something like right now:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    	var _gaq = _gaq || [];
    	_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-10646580-1']);
    	<script type="text/javascript">
    
      var _gaq = _gaq || [];
      _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-10646580-1']);
      _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
    
      (function() {
        var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
        ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
        var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
      })();
    
    </script>_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageLoadTime']);(function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })(); </script>

    Which is incomplete because the <script> tags are not placed properly. Review it in a HTML/PHP editor (like Notepad++ for example) and you’ll see the problem.

    The code is not complete. Re-paste it and make sure you don’t miss even a character 😉

    Hi Ray.

    Indeed I would opt beside WordPress but for the record I use pretty much all the major CMS platforms out there (the 2nd and 3rd most used CMS platforms are Joomla and Drupal – beside this I use other platforms like: CMS Made Simple, Magento, OpenCart etc.). I use them especially at work but also as a freelancer and for some personal projects too.

    Indeed sometimes there are some small issues (bugs if you like with WP) but these are really minor things and usually updates are released in no time to fix any problems. Until now I can confidently say that I haven`t got any major problems with WP and I have also managed to pull off some complex website using it.

    If we think about modularity (having in sight the costs) I stick to my initial suggestion of using WP. Joomla indeed it’s pretty good, robust and modular but at some point I`m sure you will face a pretty common issue: either you learn some coding (PHP, CSS, HTML etc.) to develop your required features or spend some money on extensions/modules/components.

    VS this issue, WP is really a community driven platform. Great support forum, plugins for pretty much everything you can just imagine. Just think about like this … maybe you have a great news website and in time you form a user community and why not you may want to install an online community for them. Nothing easier, with a simple yet awesome plugin called buddypress you can extend your WP install into a fully functional online community. If we look at Joomla, you will have to spend a few hundred of $ to do this. Even Drupal is better then Joomla in my opinion. I mean I like Joomla’s aspects, features and so but after a “few” project I can admit that the most satisfied clients had their projects developed on WP.

    And thus at the first look WP may look simple and not so complex in features, I can say that it’s just an impression because I bet you can’t name a type of site that cannot be done with WP (from simple presentation website to e-commerce websites, online communities, multi-sites etc. etc.).

    Also you don`t have to have to run 2 WP installs just to have a site with an attached blog. You can fully deploy a presentation website with an attached blog on a single WP install. Of course if you want to make sth like blog.yourdomain.com you can install another WP but also you have other possibilities too.

    To brake it down in a few idea WP is straight-fwd with a great community behind (and a bunch of free stuff) and Joomla have a bit messy and complicated backend with a lot of great, but commercial/payed features.

    I hope I managed to help you in some way …

    Regards,
    Adrian

    Hi.

    It really depends on what site you want to transfer to a CMS platform. But regarding numbers here are some quick facts:

    WORDPRESS

    (1) WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.

    (2) 4,041,815 websites using WordPress*

    (3) 13,958 plugins**

    (4) Notable sites:
    http://www.techcrunch.com
    http://www.thefordstory.com
    http://news.harvard.edu/gazette

    JOOMLA

    (1) Joomla is an award-winning content management system (CMS), which enables you to build Web sites and powerful online applications. Many aspects, including its ease-of-use and extensibility, have made Joomla the most popular Web site software available.

    (2) 1,407,337 websites using Joomla*

    (3) 7,299 extensions**

    (4) Notable sites:

    Shortly if we look at these, WP is way over Joomla. But again, it really depends on what kind of site would you like to port to a CMS platform. Beside all these info I can personally say that WP will fit for you because it has an extremely easy and intuitive administration backend, it’s easy to upgrade etc. Of course Joomla has it’s parts too but it just can’t reach the WP’s current level (community, plugins, tutorials, info, books etc.)

    Shortly I would advice you to go with WP and if you will regret I will personally redo your site in Joomla 😀

    Good luck!

    Hi!

    In order to accomplish this you must change a few lines in your theme’s style.css file.

    1. Line 139

    #container {}

    – enter your desired width value

    2. Line 258

    #main {}

    – this one must be reduced too in order to fit the new container div. This div and the sidebar must sum the value of the reduced portion of the #container div. For example: if the #container is reduced by 50px and the #main by 30px the #sidebar should be reduced by 20px.

    3. Line 423

    #sidebar {}

    – same reason as above

    Finally please note that you will have to make some changes to some images too (like img/header_footer.jpg) to fit the new witdh of the site.

    Good luck!

    Here is the solution for this. Also I recommend to use Poedit to edit your language file(s).
    On the other hand you`ll find an answer there to you error messages too.

    Basically you just have to translate what it’s missing, using an editor like Poedit save/generate the files and to upload them.

    Hi! You have structural problem that’s why the sidebar is slipping to the bottom. First of all you need to have a fixed width on the #primary div (now it’s 100%) and also a float:left; attribute.

    The #secondary should also have a fixed width and a float attribute in the CSS file.

    Changing this will brake the template (the footer will be misplaced) but you can fix this by adding a clear:both; (either into a br or p) right after the #main div (or directly adding in the CSS file – line 512 – a clear:both attribute).

    Finally if you want to have that white rounded background to act as a background for the whole main wrap then you should configure it (via CSS of course) on a container div (for example #main).

    Hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Hi.

    To change this edit your style.css file (line 76) and change to the wanted width.

    #primary, #secondary {}

    Also you will need to edit the #content margin value too (style.css file at line 73)

    #content {}

    Good luck!

    Hi Kim.

    To accomplish this you must download the Danish language file pack here.

    Then copy the 2 languge files (*.mo and *.po files) to your wp-content/languages (create it if the directory doesn’t exist).

    Finally edit your wp-config.php and add this

    define('WPLANG', 'da_DK');

    If you need further help just read more about this here

    Good luck!

    As far as you can see in the screenshot for me it’s working (Firefox), tested also in Chrome, IE and Safari …

    Maybe you just have a browser cache issue.

    Try use another browser or clear your browsers cache etc.

    Good luck,
    Adrian

    Hey! A link to your website would be useful …

    Hey George I`m glad it worked.

    Regarding your question please contact me via my website (you`ll find there a contact form) and we shall discuss this in private.

    Thanks,
    Adrian

    Add this code before the loop in your homepage template.

    <?php query_posts('cat=1&showposts='.get_option('posts_per_page')); ?>

    Also, don’t forget to change the category ID to your desired cat (cat=x).

    If you somehow have some problems you can find more about post query in the WP Codex http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/query_posts.

    Good luck!

    Yup header.php, sorry my bad… I was sleepy in the morning 🙂 thanks agatha1 for the correction.
