In reply to: How do I remove the body margins on the default theme?Oh he’ll be totally new to modern CMS systems and websites in general, this being a rebuild of a 7-8 year old site. I reckon this guy is gonna need 1-2-3-4 step type instructions from me just to update text on his pages so I doubt he’ll be clicking something he doesn’t fully understand. I’ll tell him not to do anything we haven’t talked about specifically just in case…
Thanks Voodoo!

In reply to: How do I remove the body margins on the default theme?Hey,
Problem solved! Not sure what it was – probably a caching issue or something – but today it looks fine on all my machines…
You’ve got me worried about the theme modification thing though…
Re: “OK, thing is about hacking it…. your changes will be lost. It’s a guaranteed thing.”
I don’t intend the client to be updating the theme himself – the site will probably stay static for a long time only updating WP itself for security reasons. This is a really small quick build, just a small publicity site for a very small company, which is why I’m not following the latest conventions – just no time to learn them for this. It won’t automatically ‘upgrade’ my stuff or anything will it? I’ve copied the theme and renamed it etc. It’s not still ‘twenteleven’ installed. I’m essentially just ripping it apart and modifying a ‘blank’ theme, which because it is based on twentyeleven, is pretty much guarenteed to be compatible with the latest WP versions. That’s okay right? From a stability/security point of view at least, if not from a ‘good clean code’ perspective?

In reply to: How do I remove the body margins on the default theme?Hey – thanks for the reply. Yea I’m actually modifying it… I know of child themes but haven’t used one yet so I’m just gonna have to hack it… it has to be done on Friday…
BTW I already removed the padding, and #page has a width: 100% in place of the max-width, but Firebug definately shows it’s a margin specifically anyway. It’s all color coded.
Any other ideas much appreciated!

In reply to: A question about permalinks/redirectsCheers. The plugin I’m using supports /%postname%/ tags etc – do you know if Redirection supports that?
