9. A less cluttered header image

10. Take some of the padding out of your writing: “This blog is not about Sasktel…” instead of “I would like to add that don’t worry this blog is not about Sasktel…” (Yes, I’m an English teacher.)

I’m not familiar with importing from Blogger, so that may have something to do with it. But I am wondering why you are using the Yoast plugin for Google analytics, when Graphene natively supports Google Analytics. In the past, I have seen some issues with Yoast seo plugins.

Okay, looks good now. Where are you getting the [important] shortcode from? (Or rather, how are you setting it to H3?)

Marcel, if you see this and it works, please change its status to “Resolved.” Thanks!

I use Google analytics and don’t have a problem. So it may be that one of your plugins was conflicting with this, or that you didn’t enter the correct/entire analytics code.

I’m not sure about checking the database, but there is probably something about it over at the Codex.

It’s not there now, so something you deactivated must have been causing it. There has been some discussion of this issue on the WP support forums (http://wordpress.org/tags/call_user_func_array), and it usually it, as Josh pointed out, a plugin conflict of some sort. (Usually some sort of social sharing thing.)

The alternative would be an Apache upgrade by your host, so if you really didn’t do anything, that might be the next step.

My understanding is that some plugins make changes to the database, so it may not be enough just to deactivate them or even to delete them. I may be wrong on that, so if someone knows better, please let me know. But it’s one reason I only get plugins from the WP plugin repository.

Last question first: Yes.

But #2 gives me an interesting clue to what it going on here. It seems to me that the computer is not so much moving it from one section to another as it is copying it, pasting it to a new one, and then going back and deleting the original. In other words, it can’t delete a post from one part of the database until it’s been copied into another. So maybe the issue here is to move it, and then wait a bit until things are fully updated, and it should be gone from the “general” section. But I may just be making stuff up here, because I don’t know enough about how bbPress works. I like it a lot (it’s much simpler than phpBB), mostly because it’s similar to WP, but it doesn’t get nearly the same attention as WP.

#1: I’ve noticed this too. I’ve simply decided to find it amusing.

#4: I’ve had that happen a couple of times, too. I think it’s a computer’s way of teasing humans.

I don’t know enough about bbPress, but I wish I did, because it’s pretty nifty. Let me know how the experimenting goes.

Try

.slider_post_title {style stuff here;}

I figured that out using Firebug, but I’ve never changed slider post titles, so no guarantees.

Okay, the plugin is activated, so it’s probably a matter of playing with its settings, which usually show up in the “Settings” pane, down below.

BUT…

You don’t need a plugin for that. Here is a much simpler way:
