    Hi Kenneth

    Al working, except did you mean a ‘#’ in the Permalink box, after http://www.hackneytools.com ?

    That didn’t clear the ‘Planes’ page, I can still click on it, so I guess you mean somewhere else?

    Thanks

    Actually, I’ve figured out a way around this.

    I’ll make my blog page the first page and create a big old sticky post to direct people

    to the tool selling page. That will work fine.

    Thanks

    Yup, turned everything on, while on the individual child pages, and also whilst on the front page, but still can’t see any new boxes that control ‘excerpts’, or the length of the text entry that’s pulled onto the front page for the two child pages. Sorry, probably being dumb here. I think I’m going to give up, I’ve taken up enough of your time!

    Cool.

    I put the code mentioned inside open and close php tags in my child theme

    styles. Not sure what to do next though? Sorry!

    I assumed it would add a box on ‘Edit Page’ , to add an excerpt?

    Hi Syahir,

    Seems to be working for everyone! Well pleased.

    Only one small thing. Child page chunks of texts that are automatically pulled onto

    the front page, now have more text in them. Is there a way to restrict their content

    using a true ‘excerpt’, such as you can with posts?

    Thank you

    Gary

    Thanks so much, Syahir. It seems to work for me, I’ll check with a few friends too.

    Is there any way I can generate correct code without making errors? I was missing a closing tag and

    a quote mark was added, because I wrote ” for ‘inch’, and it obviously had an effect on the code. Not

    huge errors, but enough to mess things up. I’m sort of thinking I shouldn’t be writing code from scratch,

    especially as I’m not that clued up, but maybe everyone does it like this???

    Thanks again for your help

    best

    Hi Syahir

    I actually have WP JQuery Lightbox running, instead of Lightbox.

    I assume my code is right for displaying thumbnails and linking to their larger counterparts,

    but it might not be. The thing I don’t understand, (and which might be causing the problem),

    was that to stop Lightbox displaying ALL images on the whole page in a slideshow, I had

    to use the rel=”lightbox[Stanley113]” tag to group sets of images together, (so for instance

    now I only get a slideshow of three images.

    As far as I’m concerned, I just wrote a name in there, and it worked. But do the images need

    to actually be grouped in a set somewhere? I avoided WordPress galleries, because it doesn’t

    let me style the display of the thumbnails, which I need to do.

    best
