In reply to: Dashboard FailureThank you! I will relay this information to the client!
P.S. I won’t mark this topic as resolved just yet if that is ok, but I imagine your initial post should do the trick!

In reply to: Dashboard FailureThank you so much for your quick reply!
Well to be honest I’m not running it. I was hired to do some graphics and the client got someone else in charge of the installation and web side of things. The client was freaking out about not able to login so I said I would have a little look into it. My knowledge is fairly limited so I wouldn’t have been able to to spot that…but the web guy should have by the sounds of it.
So I know to look for that in future is that information somewhere in the head tags?

In reply to: How to position social media iconsThanks for the reply. That works but when i test minimizing the screen and on an iphone the media icons rest on the banner. Is there anyway to create a condition where the icons will move below the banner when the screen is shrunk. Would love if the solution was more responsive. Thanks for your time!

In reply to: [Pinboard] Images on landing pagethanks for the reply. well basically, that grey horse on the right comes to an abrupt end. I wanted to see the bottom edge of the horse flush/touching the top of the two images below it. So it would look like it is resting on it and not have the gap between the two.
hope that makes sense.

In reply to: Altering Pinboard ThemeSorry didn’t know there was a specific pinboard forum.
…although I’m using pinboard I don’t think its a pinboard issue…maybe I’m wrong. I will post it up on that forum regardless.

In reply to: Background Image for postsok I will try that out, thanks. Will let you know if it works!
pulling in two recent posts (maybe by calling on a specific category?) to display two posts on the landing page (front-page.php) should be simple for someone any bit experienced.
my index.php (displaying the entire blog) is untouched (apart from some styling I will need to do) as it is exactly the way I want it.

In reply to: Background Image for postsHi alchymyth
I am still working on the site locally and really haven’t changed anything of great significance.
I did manage to write in some css that solved half my problem
.page article {
background-image: none;
}.single article {
background-image: none;
}So really my third problem just remains. Do I need to go into single.php and add a style directly in there or is this a complete no-no and styling should be kept in the css file?
Also, I’m having another problem (and your name keeps popping up so I was hoping I would get your attention!!) that you might have a look at if you have time? it can be found at:
ok so this is my index.php code that I am using for the “specials” section
and I simply duplicated this renamed it as front-page.php and added
<?php query_posts(‘showposts=2’); ?> just above the code <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
This is pulling the recent posts from the blog but the front-page is losing the column effect for some reason?
Thanks for the reply Seacoast!
No problem with child theme as I am currently working on a child theme of digital playgrounds very own child theme of twentyeleven.
I know how to make page templates also and figured this had to be the only option but I guess my problem is what hook/function do I put in the landing template that will display only two posts while the default blog template will display let’s say 10. I know you can change the number of posts per page in the admin. But is there a way to control the blog page through the admin panel but still be able to tell the landing template no matter what it can only display two posts??

In reply to: Background Image for postsJust to add, I realise I could target the next outer div e.g. article#post-9 but this would be useless as I would have to have separate css for each and every post number in the future.
Help greatly appreciated!!
