    For anyone that uses wordpress and has never moved a blog to the left, just go to the structure section in the css file and add the following

    /* Begin Structure */
    body {
    	margin: 0 0 20px 0;
    	padding: 0;
    	float: left;
    }

    the float left is the new part to this and it just pings the whole blog to the left hand side. I think Handy Solo may want to revise his css advise through this forum considering he is a moderator, the advice given above is quite clearly that of an amateur. Please do not try to give rubbish theme solutions to simple problems, especially to users learning css and wordpress format. Many thanks solo!

    Hello, installed a wordpress onto a godaddy server the other day, got exactly the same problem. The solution:

    You have to define the DB_HOST to the godaddy mysql details you would have been given when setting up the database through the back end of your server.

    It may be something like “****mysql17.secureserver.net”

    I did the stars because i didnt want to publish this address, not use if it could be ripped off or not

    Then go through the standard procedure and you should be good to rock and roll!

    What I have done in the past is to modify the images and the size dedicated to them in the css to create a final appearance that looks how I would like it too. There must be a section of code that gets called to position everything in the center. I am designing this site as a portfolio, so choosing someone elses theme is not appropriate. Anyone who knows if this code is on the css or the php?

    cheers for the feedback, i have tried the dummy method of literaly copy & paste into the html editor on my home page (i have set up a ‘home’ page out of the loop taht i want to put the reg box in) and i get two boxes and a button appear, however part of the code is in the boxes and buttons and does not produce a working result. My php know how is something of little to none, could you give me any more advice on how formating works? Do i have to mannually find the page within my database and enter the code in that way, or this code to enter into say a sidebar.php or header.php file. cheers

    It is easier to set up a page that welcomes the user and then default wordpress to go to this page, you can then insert links to your main blog or another page etc. You can do this using a plug-in:

    hope that helps
