    I see images in Chrome on my Android phone. However, I can’t find the two pages above to inspect, and you have disabled the search function. Can you please post a link to those two pages.

    Link to site, so we can take a closer look?

    Where had the changes been implemented after vanishing from the functions file ?

    The above code (and these plugins, as well) actually make a change to the WordPress database. Hitting the reset button with User Role Editor actually removes those changes from the database.

    That’s because you’ve commented out your code.

    In CSS, /* is the opening comment tag and */ is the closing comment code.

    You have:

    /*

    .slider_nav a, .slider_nav a:visited {
    background: url("http://johnbarefield.com/slider-arrows%20light.png
    ");
    }

    .slider_nav a:hover {
    background: url("http://johnbarefield.com/slider-arrows%20dark.png");
    }

    */

    but it should be

    .slider_nav a, .slider_nav a:visited {
    background: url("http://johnbarefield.com/slider-arrows%20light.png
    ");
    }

    .slider_nav a:hover {
    background: url("http://johnbarefield.com/slider-arrows%20dark.png");
    }

    There are plugins that will allow you to edit a role’s capabilities. Alternately, you can change their capabilities by editing the database. I forget how, exactly (haven’t had to do this in ages), but it is googleable.

    Glad I could help!

    Marking thread as resolved. You can do this yourself as well.

    Try this code:

    #footer {
    background: none #111;
    border-top: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    height: auto;
    }
    #copyright h3 {
    display: inline-block;
    }
    #copyright p {
    margin: 0 0 0 1em;
    display: inline-block;
    }

    A few notes for anyone who may be interested:

    The bar above the footer (2nd and 3rd arrows) is part of a background sprite image for the footer. background: none turns that off. background: #111 makes sure you still have (almost) black for a background. height: auto overrides the height declaration in the Graphene theme. (I think it’s set to min-height: 80px)

    h3 and p elements are block elements, so they tend to stack vertically on a page, like blocks in a wall. Setting both the h3 and p in the #copyright div to display: inline-block makes them act like train cars instead: they follow one another horizontally.

    I added 1 em of margin to the left side of the #copyright p so you wouldn’t have to add a non-breaking space to your copyright notice. (That probably doesn’t affect SEO, but now that I’ve said that, you can probably find 20 people on the web who will say that it does. At any rate, it’s one less screen to visit.)

    All of this works on my end; YMMV, of course. If you have problems or troubles, just let us know.

    Alas, theft of things is just a part of living on the internet. Photoshop does have a plugin (extension? I forget what it calls these.) that will allow you to add an invisible watermark to your images, but I don’t know how effective it is. And being Adobe, it is not free, nor is it cheap.

    You have disabled right click* so it is difficult to diagnose these things.

    *Why, though? This does nothing to prevent people from stealing your content. Indeed, it disables the way a lot of people navigate web sites and is a disincentive to come back.

    I can get around this fairly easily, but it’s better if you just get rid of it.

    Simply don’t create any secondary menu items.

    Have you made any recent changes to your website?

    If not, try disabling all your plugins, flushing your browser and server caches, and reloading the page. Does the problem still exist?
