In reply to: More than one favicon and gravatar?Oh thank you!! I never thought to log out of admin and try it from the outside. Very cool!
Now to the question of the gravatar. When “Willie” posts a reply comment on the dogblog it shows my gravatar, the daisy again. The gravatar seems to be tied to my profile at WordPress.com, no? Is there a way to have more than one and assign them to specific blogs? Or a workaround?

In reply to: More than one favicon and gravatar?Thank you, cais. I looked at those and they and the others seem to be about adding a favicon to your blog or your admin pages. I’ve already got that in place, and what I want to do is have different favicons for the website and the blog.
So far I’ve tried uploading the new and different blog favicon to my theme file and I inserted this into the header of my theme:
<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”http://www.quiltpuppy.com/dogblog/wp-content/themes/scribblings/favicon.ico” type=”image/x-icon” />
I cleared the cache also, but still the blog is picking up the website favicon (the daisy).
Does the root favicon override others? Is it truly possible to have different ones?
Many thanks for any ideas.

In reply to: Unruly widgetsModerator sir, you are a rock star!
I really had tried what you said before, but apparently did not do it correctly. I had then commented out the theme widgets in sidebar.php instead of in functions.php. I was flailing around the solution. Thank you so much for actually fixing the file for me. All is now well.

In reply to: Unruly widgetsThanks for hanging in there with me, total amateur that I am. (But liking the learning!) I did the above, and the built-in sidebar items are all suppressed. However, still, the Links or Linklist widget does not make links appear in the sidebar using this theme. I’ve done so much to tweak this theme with success, I feel like I’m aaaalmost there if I can just solve this one.
Am having crazy thoughts of making a kludgy workaround by using the built-in links and replacing the graphic to make it look like the others. But then would have little control over order of items in the sidebar. Save me from this fate.

In reply to: Unruly widgetsWell, here it is!
(Edit: removed by mod.. Please post large sections of code on a pastebin site then post the links back here.. large code posts in these forums messes them up)
Comment something out? Replace something? Any thoughts? Most grateful for the help.

In reply to: Unruly widgetsA little progress… if I switch to default theme and *then* add the Links widget, Links show up on the site.
Something in my theme is suppressing the links widget. Where would I look to address this?
Many thanks

In reply to: Unruly widgetsesmi, thank you for chiming in. Moving the line did not help (at least if I did it right). That made an admin widget appear on top of a coded widget. So I commented out the coded widgets in sidebar.php and that did make them disappear.
Second problem… switching to default theme and then back again seems like it may make the widgets stick in admin. Will need to play with this some more.
Only problem left… links/linklist are being stubborn and will not show up on site. Not even in default theme. Why might this be?

In reply to: Change “leave comment” link colorSuccess! With the help of your clue and my trusty book by Liz Castro, I implemented the span tag and it’s working. Thank you!!

In reply to: Change “leave comment” link colorHi Sasch9r,
Thank you so much for the info. I’m getting closer. I did the first part, but when you say “add this into your link” it’s not so easy. As far as I can tell, here’s the relevant section, found in the home.php file:
<div class="contenttitle"> <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1> <p>Filed Under <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php comments_popup_link('Leave a Comment', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?> <?php edit_post_link('(Edit Post)', '', ''); ?></p> </div>What do I put where??
Many thanks again,
Kay
