Well, if no one has viewed the posts yet, it won’t show the tags. Create a couple of dummy posts with dummy tags and then click on the tags. They should start to show up in the tag cloud. Once you’ve done this to ensure it’s working, you can delete the dummy posts and dummy tags.
By default, the header image will link back to the home page. If you really wanted to do this, your best bet would be to add mail buttons to the top bar. The correct format would be:
<a href="mailto:iwantspam@example.com"><img src="http://pathtoimage" /></a>and then stand back. Links like this are notorious spam magnets.
Do you have a child theme? If so make sure that class
.block-buttonis not set todisplay:none.Worked for me.
Using the Visual Editor:
Create the pages/posts first. Then edit the page you want to add the link on. Enter the text you want to have as a link, and select it. Then click on the “Add Link” button in the TinyMCE Editor.
In the box that pops up, click on the triangle next “Or link to existing content”. A listing of recent postings will show below that. If you can’t find the post/page you are looking for, enter some search terms in the box. Once you find the post/page, click on it to select it, and then click on the “Add Link” button.
Mischief managed!
This is a great question, because I have seen some really jacked RSS configurations out there.
Basically, WordPress creates an RSS feed automatically–it’s part of the WP code. To get to your feed, just add “/feed/” to your URL, and enter that in whatever program you use as a feedreader.
I use Firefox as a feedreader. It’s much better than Safari, and light years ahead of any web-based feed readers I’ve seen out there. I’ve had none of the feed issues that other people have been mentioning here since the 1.6 upgrade.
The advantage of this method is that you can also add feeds for categories and tags. For example, if you have a category called “oceans”, then the feed for that category is “http://www.example.com/category/oceans/feed/”. I use this a lot on the front page of my blog. Check it out (in Firefox, of course) and click on any of the RSS feed buttons there.
They stopped working upon the upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6.
I believe that 1.6 now only loads jQuery on pages with the slider, such as the front page. Since you don’t have the slider on the front page, jQuery is not loaded. Try activating the slider, reloading the page, and seeing if your tabs work.
If I understand you right, you can do this by assigning the various posts to categories, and then either using a category archive (no need to include the code you have above, because it already sorts things by category), or to create a page and then use Kalin’s Post List plugin to include links to the various posts in the category.
The advantage of the former method is that you need to do nothing, except create the appropriate categories and assign posts to them. The disadvantage is that you can only display posts from a single category at a time.
The advantage of of the latter method is that you can include posts from more than one category, but the disadvantage is that it is a bit more work to set up. But only a bit more. I have a tutorial for Kalin’s Post List plugin on my blog that will help you out.
In reply to: Homepage Panes – alignment, backgrounds, dates, tags
February 17, 2012 at 11:19 pm #24346Homepage panes are assigned the class
.homepage_pane. Your current settings are:.homepage_pane {
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-top: 15px;
vertical-align: top;
}Add that to your custom CSS or child theme style sheet and play around with the variables.
You can add a border, change the background, etc., from the class above.
Well, you can take a look at the style sheet switcher I use on my main web site (I’ve spent weeks rewriting all the css and php for it), which I got from here:

Might give you some ideas…
^OMG. Is it really that simple? My friend was telling all sorts of rotating scripts I have to use in the CSS.
Yes, it really is that simple, at least with Graphene. There are scripts you can use (Google “rotator.php”) to rotate header images on other, more ordinary, sites. (I used to use one on my main site and will again when I have more time to devote to the bells and whistles.) So your friend is right–but he or she doesn’t know about Graphene.
