Definitely look through the forums at the Codex, though. You can’t be the first person in this situation, I’m sure.

Use Firebug to figure out the widget ID and then you can create a custom background color for just that widget using custom CSS. If you don’t have Firebug, you can “View Source” but it takes a lot longer.

I don’t know. I just installed this on my test blog and it’s working just fine. Didn’t have any problems using it, although it slowed performance down a wee bit. And it has so many features I don’t even know what they all do. But it’s cool.

Did you read the FAQ? — http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tinymce-advanced/faq/

What do you mean by “Graphene style”?

Include a link to your site. Thanks.

I know I’ve posted more than a few topics over the last day and I greatly apologize.

Don’t worry about it. That’s what this forum is for.

the ad often either overlaps

Some codes (like Facebook) will allow you to select the width of the widget down to the pixel. It’s just a matter of tweaking the size to find something that fits into the widget. Others, like Google Adsense only give you a choice of different ad sizes.

You can find information about styling different text widgets in this post:

You can add posts to a custom menu. What exactly did you mean?

To be honest, I have not probed too deeply into the navigation CSS. It underwent a major reworking in version 1.4 and I simply haven’t had the time to figure it out yet. (Which I need to do because there are some issues with on two of my sites.)

You are making good progress, just keep plugging away and remember that GIYF.

By definition, pages don’t show up in your RSS feed. But you can try this plugin, which was recently updated to work with the latest version of WP, so it should work pretty well:

Weird; that worked on my site when I tried it.

Try this, instead:

.home h1.page-title{

display: none;

}

No promises, no guarantees, but worth a shot. YMMV.

What I would do is to use a static front page and then enable an alternate front page widget. Then, create custom menus for each category of articles you want to have and drop each custom menu into a footer widget.

You could actually display a few post excerpts above that by creating a “Featured” category and then using the Homepage Pane options to display just those posts. (You can make your front page show just excerpts in the “Reading” setting.)

There are a lot of different ways you could go with this. Play around with and have fun. If you have questions or problems, let us know.

about the “Home” bar — that’s actually the title to your static home page. You can change it to something more useful (“Welcome to my site” or something similar) along with a brief explanation of what your site is about, or you can make it disappear entirely by adding this to your custom CSS:

.home .page{

display: none;

}

That will get rid of everything from the front page.

Yep, you can hire Syahir to do customisations. You can send him a message through his contact page.
