    Thanks Davood – it helps more than you know, starting to get my head around it and understand it a bit better.

    Thanks

    Once I get it right and sorted – and have no more silly questions – I’ll mark it as resolved.

    Hmm, OK thanks for that I probably misunderstood the theme author as he said:
    ‘The plugin should follow your original post logic. The content of our templates are placed in the container of the original post template.’

    Davood – thanks for the hint – it’s not WC, so I should be good.

    The site never had `posts’ as such and now they want a blog – anything entered as a post just showed the content – no date, author, category etc as most posts show!

    The plugin helps with that adding those meta fields, however the rest of the site is centred (like a boxed display) but now the post is flush left!

    I thought I needed a single.php to control the display (but it seems not, thank you for the clarification).

    My index.php is this:

    <?php get_header();?>
    <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
    <div class="body">
    	<div class="container">
    		<div class="clear"></div>
    		<div class="main">
    			<div class="post content">
    				<h1 class="page-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title();?></a></h1>
    
    				<div class="content">
    					<?php the_content(); ?>
    				</div>
    			</div>
    		</div>
    		<div class="clear"></div>
    	</div>
    </div>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    <?php get_footer();?>

    So bcworkz – you think (know) I could copy this file, rename to single.php – and I should be able to edit it to centre the post content!

    True, that makes sense and the simplest option.

    Is there an easy way to have the destination page thumbnail show on hover of the link?

    Hi
    Thanks for that, they all seem to need a Pro licence to allow linking to an external URL.

    Looking for a plugin where I can add Media Images and link each thumbnail to an external URL – like a gallery of company logos, click on the logo and it goes to the company website.

    I know it’s easy and I’m overthinking it, but is there an easy to setup gallery like this. All of them want to expand to a lightbox which is great but not what I need for this project.

    Hi
    I found the solution and plugin suggested by doubleedesign worked for me.

    It’s an easy to setup plugin if, as they say you only have a few to set up – I only had 2!

    Hi Thanks for that I will have a look.

    A lot of them do more than I need.

    Basically all I need is something at the final checkout stage (just prior to billing) to do:

    If Shipping Country = NZ or AU then CURRENCY = AUD, else CURRENCY = USD.

    Then it will go to PayPal or the Banks Gateway and charge in AUD or USD.

    No conversion or rates just AUD (in AU and NZ) and USD (everywhere else).

    Would this be possible as some php code etc somewhere?

    Hi Marius:

    Thanks for the info, I was a bit off as I didn’t think the filename was all that important, but as you say it’s indexed so it would be.

    Thanks for the help

    Hi

    Can I use a plugin to achieve this, or if not, can you point me in the right direction for some idiot proof instructions.

    I like the idea of a full screen overlay which disappears to reveal the page though!

    No, they didn’t send me here, they said it is compatible (which contradicts their sales page), so I wanted to somehow confirm it myself is all.

    But it is compatible it seems as I had installed it via cPanel and the host used SimpleScripts which makes up it’s own database prefix rather than using the standard wp_ so that was the problem!

    HI

    Thanks for the quick response, I thought it would be more complicated than that so I wanted to make sure I didn’t misunderstand it all.

    Thanks for the heads up that not all themes may work, so I will check

    Hi Frizax:

    Thank you that worked – one more question and then I will leave you alone.

    Is it possible to have the posts sorted alphabetically in the list rather than newest first?

    Thank you again.
    Ernie
