In reply to: How to style WP Survey And Quiz Tool QuestionsYou can just do this:
.wpst_question ul {
font-size: 13px;
}.wpst_question {
font-family: Lato;
font-size: 24px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}(I took the h4 styles from your style.css file.)

In reply to: Problem with load template by smartphoneThis is really about a fundamental shift in web design. Until recently not many people thought about how sites look on a mobile phone.
You can change the viewport settings in your code to show a certain portion of your site on a mobile phone, but if you want a truly elegant solution to displaying your website on a mobile phone, you definitely need to look into a separate mobile site or a responsive site. That means recoding your theme from the ground up or adopting a new theme.

In reply to: random line through nav barThis is the offending bit of code here:
.single.hentry {
border-top: 1px solid #EFEFEF;
margin-top: -50px;
}The post (with multiple classes shown in the CSS above) has a border and the top margin is set to a negative number. This is causing it to run into the nav bar.

In reply to: How to style WP Survey And Quiz Tool QuestionsDo you have a link to the page you’re working on?

In reply to: Help Moving Nav BarMy best guess at this point is 60px. I inspected the element in chrome and added a line of code that said “background-position-y: -60px” and everything lined up okay.

In reply to: Help Moving Nav BarI must have been seeing a cached version of the page before. I didn’t see that. You’re right maybe the background image needs to shrink now.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Help Moving Nav BarI think this one is a little complicated because there are a lot of ways to look at it.
The background-color on the nav bar is a part of a background image of the body of the page. That’s not a great way to do things, because of this exact problem.
The logo and the nav bar are behaving exactly the way they should, since the logo is pushing these nav items down further than where the pink color is positioned on the background-image. Either the logo needs to shrink or the background image needs to grow. If you play around with those for awhile I think you should be able to get it right.

In reply to: Help Moving Nav BarYou still need an extra 47px of white space added to that image.
The nav links are positioned relative to the logo. They’re behaving exactly like they should. Either the logo is too large or the background image that creates that pink bar and white top is too short, it all depends on how you want to look at it. I assume you don’t want to change the size of the logo.
So open up the background image file again in photoshop and change the canvas size to 47px taller than it is currently. Make sure the image is anchored to the bottom. Save the image, upload and overwrite the old one, and you should be good to go.

In reply to: Help Moving Nav BarI think you’ve got three options here:
1. Make the logo smaller, so the nav lines up in the pink bar.
2. Adjust the background image on the body (http://www.lifeonpurposeblog.org/wp-content/themes/OcenolisMagazine/OcenolisMagazine/images/header.gif) to reflect the larger logo.
3. Take away the clear:both on <div id=”top”></div> to make the navigation float next to the logo.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Child Theme doesn't find Parent Theme.Another thought… You mentioned the header in the child theme is empty. That would likely cause problems and, possibly, lead WordPress to believe there is no header.php. That would leave you with no opening html tag, no long to the stylesheet, etc… If the header in your child theme is empty, I would recommend deleting that header.php file entirely and allowing WordPress to pick up the header template from the parent theme.

In reply to: Child Theme doesn't find Parent Theme.Interesting. What’s the URL to the website in question?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Problem with load template by smartphoneUnfortunately I don’t think there is an easy fix to this problem. You’ve got a theme optimized for the desktop and are opening it in a mobile phone, and that creates some problems with site width, readability, etc…
If you want a quick fix to make your posts readable on a mobile phone you might want to try WP Touch (http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/wptouch/).
If you’re looking for a more elegant solution, look into a responsive theme.

In reply to: H1 tag regarding SEOYour h1 tag is always visible to Google as long as your page is public. I checked out your site, and there doesn’t seem to be an H1 tag on the front page. It’s usually best practices, on the homepage, to put the title of your site inside an H1 tag.
On post pages, make the title of the post an H1 tag.

In reply to: Child Theme doesn't find Parent Theme.You mentioned header.php is included in your child theme. Is the code the same as header.php in the parent theme? If so, it might be unnecessary to have header.php in the child theme directory.
