In reply to: How to style posts?Definitely, all my changes are a child theme. What would be nice if there was a specific way to find the loop area. I’ve tried that before but I guess I need to take another look maybe I’m missing something. Hopefully there is something that I missed. Thanks!

In reply to: How do I edit the menu?Can I change the order of when the page will appear like for example.
instead of
Home-Bio-Music
then:
Music-bio-homeBasically change the order it seems that everytime I make a new page that page is added as the next menu item button.
When I go to appearance > menu my blog(home) button is gone, only bio and music appear.
Can I change the order or add back the blog(home) button?

In reply to: Can't add sidebar to singlepost viewHey thanks for helping! I actually did make a child theme which is what I’m using to make the edits the odd thing is I think on the single post page the entry itself in the theme is shifted like over to the right making the actual are of the post much larger than when it’s in the loop. However I don’t know how to make the commenting area and the single-post itself not shift so that the sidebar can actually be on the side and not go to the side bottom. The bar itself is there but because of huge padding or what not on the single post view and the commenting form being so huge for whatever reason it shifts off. Did you somehow style the css or whatever so that the indenting (padding/margin) does not occur? Or did you style the comment form as well?

In reply to: Add meta tags?How about if I wanted keywords? I did it all with HTML but is there a way to do it just with the admin tools or php?

In reply to: How to create a commenting system with many different website optionsOh yeah I saw that.So no changes on the commenting people except for the person using the plug-in which is me?
If so that is upsetting. It would be nice to be able to log into any website account and comment back.
By the way thanks for being so helpful!

In reply to: How to add a heading to the posts?yes it is just an additional headline since the posts section doesn’t have a headline unlike the pages or perhaps that has to do with the theme like you said (I’m using Twenty Eleven)

In reply to: How to create a commenting system with many different website optionsWhat does that mean?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: How to create a commenting system with many different website optionsOh yeah I forgot to add that part. I know you can install those plugins but is there like one plugin that allows for all of the different website options or would I have to for example install one for disqus, another for facebook, another for twitter, etc.?

In reply to: How to I change the width of the sidebar?So what if I have a blank functions.php in the child theme? Does that mess up the functions all together? How exactly would I overwrite the parent’s function?
Also is it a problem when I have a functions.php file that has no actual coding in it for the child theme? Or is that not a good idea? In the beginning it seemed to work out fine because the child functions.php was just a copy of the parent theme functions.php so I removed the coding and it worked(since before with the same coding on both the child and the parent caused conflicts) Today when I revisited the site and tried to log in I couldn’t(don’t know if this is due to the code of the child theme functions.php being removed.
Right number of columns and width? Do you mean as in right for me or is there a standard? Also is the PHP in the wordpress different from the PHP normally used? Where would you recommend to learn about how to use PHP and MySql?
Thanks by the way you are very nice and helpful!

In reply to: How to I change the width of the sidebar?I read the child theme thing and it said it adds to the function but doesn’t overwrite. I’m not having problems well not so far but I was just stating that because in the case of the other stuff you basically overwrite the functionality or so the child theme page said.
As for the layout it might not be as common which is a scrolling div. I don’t know if that’s even possible and I wanted to make a horizontal scrolling one.

In reply to: How to I change the width of the sidebar?Oh thanks I created my own child theme 🙂 I can understand why if you want to modify you should just use the child theme. I wish they made it so that you could have your own modified function overwrite the parent theme though so that you can edit whats already there instead of just adding to it. Sigh.
Where do you think I should go to learn about making my own theme from scratch? I have another website layout that I want to turn into a theme.
