In reply to: Error in formatting?I blocked all directory browsing (if that makes sense) and /wp-contect specifically via .htaccess
It was working fine yesterday with this though… I’ll try removing it and re-adding.Forum: Plugins

In reply to: Have post categories show up on pagesIf I understand correctly, you want to make the category archive show up on a particular page, which is part of your navigation, correct?
You can use the query_posts to do this.
However, what I ended up doing was using a simple re-direct with a plug-in. I made the page and redirected it to the category archive.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: how to get wp pagles to appear on root directoryMake sure you copy the index.php and .htaccess from the directory to the root directory.
Another way to do this is In the root directory you can also make an index.php and paste the following code:
<?php define('WP_USE_THEMES', true); require('./wp/wp-blog-header.php'); ?>Forum: Localhost Installs

In reply to: Accessing the HTML source of my site.WordPress is built on PHP. PHP is basically it’s own scripting language. If you wanted to edit the themes in any way, you would be dealing with PHP/Wordpress codex/CSS, not HTML.
Based on the demo site, I’m going to guess page_portfolio.php is a page templete, and page_landing.php and the corresponding CSS is where you’re going to want to start. However, you bought a commercial child/theme so you should be able to ask them any questions and get support.
If you’re interested in learning the coding behind your theme, I suggest going to “Docs” and going from there.

In reply to: Best way to prevent oversized images in sidebar breaking layoutI wouldn’t know about functions, but wouldn’t it be easier to include a max-width: 100%; max-height: auto; to re-size the image since they would still want to image to be in the sidebar?

In reply to: Creating a page that looks like category.php (Template)Sorry, I’m not as familiar with the wordpress tags. What does the that code do? I’m guessing it replaces the <?php query_posts(“cat=#”); ?> in the templete ?
Thanks again..

In reply to: Navigation issue with marginsAdding: ” *{margin:0;padding:0} ” at the beginning of the CSS will set every to 0,0 at the beginning, which may help.
I don’t think that it’s the individual menu items as they are 185px with a 1pt margin, and the container is 935px.You can also used the “Inspect Element” in Chrome to compare with the Firebug add-on to see where.

In reply to: Installing a new theme – but t's a folder!If you use an FTP client (like Filezilla) you can just right click and upload the folder itself, without opening up the entire folder and uploading each file one by one.

In reply to: Installing a new theme – but t's a folder!Themes are generally in folders, yes. They contain many files which are used to “piece together” the theme.
You should be uploading them in: wp/wordpress > wp-content > themes.
You can then go to Appearance on your Dashboard to activate the theme.
