    See this post for an example of how to format & use a header widget. A header widget really can be made to appear outside of the normal flow using this kind of styling. If you want something that fits in the flow of the page, you might want to try using an action hook.

    If you want to take a closer look at my CSS that I use to style a header widget (I use one bit of code for the widget itself and another for the content), you can see my child theme’s css here.

    Good luck!

    OR, you are just using Graphene out of the box, without much customisation. (Most people who come here asking people to take a look are talking about customisations they have made to theme.) But as you know, the Graphene theme does look pretty sharp out of the box.

    Here’s something to think about. On the page “Educational Chrome Apps for Children” (thanks for these, by the way; I will definitely check into them), you might want to consider floating your images, either to the left or the right, to tighten up the layout and eliminate some superfluous white space. (Actually, you might want to consider this on all of your pages, but this is the one that has the most images.)

    For “Tools,” you might want to consider some form of internal navigation, because those pages are LONG. I like the “Table of Contents Plus” plugin for this, which gives you Wikipedia-style TOC’s.

    And thanks TONS for the link to Bad Astronomy. I will be directing a lot of people there down the road.

    I’ll be checking in down the road. You might want to consider allowing comments to make the site more interactive.

    Keep up the good work,

    Ken

    Then you would need to FTP your image to your server, matching the link from the code above.

    Or you could just add it to your media gallery and then use the link that WP provides when you save the item.

    I just looked at the “whose been online” part in the dashboard and see two entries where they tried to go to the file:

    MyAdmin/scripts/setup.php

    Probably a bot, fishing for doors that were left open.

    #18999

    Oh, I see. You probably have an unclosed <div> somewhere in one of your sidebar widgets. Just add a </div> or two to the end of your last sidebar widget and see if that makes the problem go away.

    In reply to: page with posts template?

    #18816

    By “mimic” I mean for the posts to appear like they do on a post archive page

    So why not just use a post archive? What is it about the regular archive that just isn’t doing it for you?

    You can add formatting using Kalin’s plugin. I just slapped this example together in about 90 seconds:
