    In reply to: can't change footer color

    #20023

    color refers to text color. To change the background to black, try this code:

    #footer {background: #000;}

    (BTW, be sure to place code between backticks. Thanks!)

    I navigated to your webpage, used my browser’s “View Source” function, and then used my browser’s “Find” function. I see the following things that use jquery:

    WP Featured Content Slider

    Jetpack

    and something that is possibly a comment-related function and another that is a possible IE8 (aargh!) hack.

    I can’t help you much with the first issue, but Syahir has a good video here that you will probably find useful.

    As for the second issue, you can very easily insert <div dir=ltr> using a shortcode if you use Kalin’s Post List plugin, using the “None” option. You can read more about that on my tutorial here:

    Well, as this post points out, this really isn’t a theme issue. MarketPress just doesn’t do things the way WordPress expects them to.

    That said, you can find the MarketPress help forum here.

    You should also be aware that MarketPress is not the only ecommerce plugin available for WordPress. You can find a list from the plugin repository here. MarketPress comes up first in that list, but that does not mean that it is the best.

    You may not even need a plugin. Some people have a great deal of success using Paypal as an ecommerce solution.

    Well, peeking at your page source, I see a number of plugins that use jquery.

    I just spent a lot of time working this out on one of my blogs.

    You can view it here: http://bookblog.kjodle.net/

    and peek at my CSS file here: http://bookblog.kjodle.net/wp-content/themes/graphene_maps/style.css

    If you compare what I did to the original stylesheet, it should give you an idea of what you need to change. (My code isn’t perfect, but it does the trick.)

    If you look at the original style sheet, the navigation menu is fairly well commented, so that you can figure out what’s what. If you don’t have server access and can’t see it, you can get a peek at the latest stylesheet here. Play around and let us know if you have any troubles.

    Moved to support, since this isn’t a Graphene bug, and others might have more experience with this plugin.

    Actually, it’s pretty easy to achieve a vertical share bar that stays out of the way without using any fancy plugins. Using standard AddThis code, just drop that code in a text widget in the header widget area, in a <div> with fixed positioning and a bit of padding, and then add <p /> in front of each button in the code.

    Ends up looking like this:

    The code looks like this:

    <!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
    <div style="clear:both;"></div>
    <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style"
    style="position:fixed;
    top:18px;
    right:6px;" >
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_5"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_6"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_preferred_7"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
    <p /><a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>
    </div>
    <script></script>
    <!-- AddThis Button END -->

    (I snipped the script that controls the analytics.)

    It’s not quite as fancy but it has the advantage of not using jquery and not interfering with other things on your blog.

    How long have you been using the Sharebar plugin? Has it been working fine until now? Have you made any recent changes to it?

    It’s not the slider that’s the problem (which I thought at first, because Sharebar also uses jquery), but the Twitter feed that’s inserting itself into your excerpts. Have you tried turning off just the Twitter part of the Sharebar to see if that takes care of the problem?
