  1. I am having a problem keeping successive posts in line, if you check out my site (myradeus.com) you will notice that the second post down is creeping up under my text from the top post. What can I do?

  2. Chris, I see now … try taking off the “more” tag to make the post longer …. for those really short posts I can’t think of a better fix … it’s either making the image smaller or lengthening the post.

  3. Thanks Cory! I thought that may be the only solution but I figured I should ask:-)
    Thanks for the sweet theme!

  4. Cory,

    thanks for this wonderful theme. I decided to use it on one of my websites because it’s simply the best 🙂

    I am trying to show a page list in the sidebar of your theme, but

    only shows the top level pages. Any idea what I’m missing?

    Cheers,

    Bernhard

  5. Bernhard, you have an early version of the theme … try downloading the new one above where I replaced that and added “recent posts” instead of the pages.

    Glad you like the theme!!!

  6. Cory,

    thanks for your quick reply. I think the version I installed is the most recent one, it has the “recent posts” in the sidebar. I wanted to add the pages list myself in the sidebar.php, but it refuses to show sub pages / only shows top level pages when I use

    wp_list_pages(‘title_li=’);
    php get_links_list();

    Bernhard

    P.S. let me know if this discussion is too detailled/technical for this common place, I would obey that.

  7. Hi Cory,

    Love the theme.

    Noticed some weirdness in IE6 when you click through to the categories – all the content is in really large fonts and page is distorted … a styling issue. Any idea how I can fix?

  8. Sandra,

    I also had this problem in Vista/IE7. I altered this line on the archives page:

    …and removed the tag, so it reads like this:

    Now it works fine in IE7. The only weirdness now is that the page shifts just a little in Firefox when clicking the Archive link from the main page.

  9. @Gordon:

    Hi Gordon–I’m also having the same problem. The code alterations you mentioned aren’t shown in your comment…could you re-reply with them? I’d love to solve this, but am not a CSS guru by any stretch…

  10. Eric, Gordon said this to me in an email: “All I did was to remove the < h2 > tag from the archive page template – I think it’s like the 3rd or 4th line of code?”

    Hope this helps .. I’ll look at this tonight.

  11. This is a very nice theme and I want to use it. I am puzzled though about why it indents after images? Like if I use a several smilies like this it will indent each one. 🙂 🙂 🙂

  12. I like your theme very much but I have two questions. I’ve installed your 3-column version and in trying to add sidebar plugins with widgets, the plugin shows up on both the left and right sidebars. I can’t figure out how to differentiate between the two sidebars to add content.

    Secondly, is there a way to not have posts abbreviated on the archive page, if that’s the correct term.

    Thank you very much. It’s a very good looking theme.

  13. Sid, I’ve got to fix the sidebars …. this is a problem the forums have told me about and I’m working on. I’ll let you know. Thanks!

  14. How would I/you enable css drop down menu on this great theme??

    Reinar

  15. Thank you for the response concerning the sidebars. I appreciate it.

    Sid

  16. Hi Cory,

    Let me know when you get the sidebar column error fixed. I want to try this theme out.

    Al

  17. Hi Cory:

    Like Reinar, I’d like to understand how to add to the drop down menu.

    Terrific design!

    Thanks–

    Taylor

  18. Here’s what I offered Saman:

    #content p img{
    float: left;
    border: none;
    margin-right: 15px;
    margin-bottom: 10px;

  19. My new personal site for fun I am powering with word press (LaptopMatt.com). It is still being put together right now, but I would like to say that this theme is great. I added some changes of my own to the files and then the CSS and got exactly what I would want for this site.
    Thanks Cory

  20. that’s odd that the universal fix didn’t work. interesting.

    But, that code works too. denies the border unless specified by another class/id/attribute.

    Glad it’s fixed!
