    Surely someone must be able to help! I’ve done a serach with no help other than teh fact that there may be a sidbar bug in 1.5

    Thanks! Had exactly the same problem and it only worked after updating the template-function-category.php file.

    *really not freally!

    You should freally be using a default system font for your body text to ensure other users see what you want. Something like Georgia may be OK if you definitely want a serif. I’ve just had a look and the letter spacing looks huge on my safari browser! Try adding letter-spacing 1px (or whatever) to your paragraph tags in your style sheet

    p {font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; letter-spacing: 1px;}

    or

    .storycontent p {font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; letter-spacing: 1px;}

    The website’s at:
    http://www.endpeg.com/

    Home, About, Archives etc are all highlighted when you’re on those pages. I just need a ‘catch all’ piece of code for the rest of the pages that dont get highlighted.

    The navigation uses PHP and an inline style to determine what button is focused on. I’m still learning PHP but I found the method by trawling this support forum:

    <?php
    if ( is_home() ) { $current = 'b-home a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('about') ) { $current = 'b-abou a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('about-the-author') ) { $current = 'b-abou a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('about-the-site') ) { $current = 'b-abou a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('brief-resume') ) { $current = 'b-abou a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('archive-index') ) { $current = 'b-arch a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('links') ) { $current = 'b-link a'; }
    elseif ( is_page('contact') ) { $current = 'b-cont a'; }
    ?>

    <style type="text/css">
    li#<?php echo $current; ?> {
    color: #fff;
    font-weight: bold;
    background: #62C061 url(/img/nav-focus.gif) repeat-x bottom left;
    }
    </style>

    Thanks guys. I think the sidebar is still a niggling part of the design. I wanted a pale yellow sidebar but with white-out headings so there had to be some contrast in there. I will live with it for a bit and then change it if it gets too distracting – beauty of CSS! My style of fishing is an English thing so many people simply wont ‘get it’ – I always put my fish back too! And don’t you think Erik Cole would be a bit insulted by any comparisons to me!
