In reply to: Aside not working blog posts twenty elevenThanks for the response.
I have installed that plug-in and will now be using it as a work around. As I don’t ever want to not have a side bar on my singular posts, I will just always keep this plug-in activated.
I now have a singular post sidebar!

Referring to the above, when the contact form is viewed on mobile devices, or devices with a small screen, it automatically resizes the text input boxes, such as: ‘Your Name’, ‘Email’ and ‘Submit’. By default this responsive nature is only applied to the ‘Your Message’ bit – at least that’s how it is when I use it with the WordPress Twentyeleven theme.
Here is the code I used to resolve the issue.
.wpcf7-form-control.wpcf7-text {
position: relative;
max-width: 98%;
}Thought I would update this post, as I receive at least three emails a month asking me how I managed to achieve this!

In reply to: Creating home buttonActually, I have come across another issue. When I used pages in my NavBar I was able permalinks for children has their parent in. For example the permalink for the child ‘CV’, under the parent ‘ABOUT’ had the permalink danielfinn.co.uk/about/CV. Now that I am using custom menus, even though I have stated the CV is a child of ABOUT the child’s permalink omits the parent and is just danielfinn.co.uk/cv. Is their a way of remedying this?
The only way I have come across so far is to create a page within dashboard/pages called about and making that the parent. This page then lies in dashobard/pages and does not do anything.

In reply to: Creating home buttonThanks for all the help! I have resolved the parent/children issue. It was just a case of dragging the custom menu item to the right of the item above it on the edit panel..

In reply to: Creating home buttonI am still experiencing one issue. The custom menu has worked for me in that I have been able to create a home button which links to my blog role, however, when I was solely using pages to fill my NavBar I had created an ABOUT parent item with several drop-down children. Now that I have switched to the custom menu approach my parent and children are all visible in a line. Is there a way to create parent/children using a custom menu? I can’t see this explained on the link you gave me.

In reply to: Creating home buttonI would like to have my blog roll as my homepage.

In reply to: Creating home buttonThanks. I am still a little bit confused though. What I do not wish to do is to set up a static homepage and a seperate blog page. From what I have read on that article, it sound like I will have to go into wp_page_list template and create a HOME link in my NavBar. Am I correct in assuming this? If so, do you know if there is more material available on this subject? I have done a few searches, but not come up with much.

In reply to: Yoast SEO – requires rewrite for XML Sitemap?Thanks! I used one of the plug-ins to allow you to view and edit your .htaccess file wihtin your WordPress dashboard. I then added the rewrite code after the section of text which said #Wordpress rewriete start #Wordpress rewrite end. The plug-in now works fine and my sitemap has been generated.

In reply to: Yoast SEO – requires rewrite for XML Sitemap?Could you tell me, do I just place these rewrite files anywhere in the .htaccess doc? Or do they need to be in a specific page?
Also, I just presumed, that they actually had to rewrite something, or inserted in place ofsome existing code? Is that not the case?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [SoundCloud Is Gold] [Plugin: SoundCloud Is Gold] Remove playsTo resolve this issue I just went ahead and bought a SoundCloud Solo account for €50 p/yr… lets you hide all stats when you embed through iframe or shortcode.

In reply to: [SoundCloud Is Gold] [Plugin: SoundCloud Is Gold] html5 HeightI am also interested in being able to alter the height of the html5 player. I altered the default in the function.php, but it would be great if you could alter the individual heights of each player in their accompanying shortcode. I would love to make a donation, as I find its application really useful. But because I really need the height bit I find myself just resorting to embedding iframes instead – as this is easy to do.

In reply to: help with text formatting in boxesI am using the boxes option that is available in the pagelines theme, but when I change to the default theme in wordpress I see the boxes option disappears. Does that mean this is pagelines specific?
Also, I went into the theme css folder and found these three:
byddpress
ie7
color
multisite
objectI used text wrangler to search for the term ‘list-style:’ but it couldn’t find it.
