In Graphene Options >> General >> Slider Options, look for the box marked “Slider image” and select “first image in post” in the drop down menu, and it should pick up the first image to display in the slider.
However, it looks like you are linking to images that you do not host. These will not show up in the slider. For an image to show up in the slider, you must upload it when writing the post, or choose an image that is in your media library.

Reza, in your child theme’s stylesheet, you have
/*
#header{
background-color:#000;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:960px;
width:50px;
}
*/I think you meant:
#header{
background-color:#000;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width:960px;
height:50px;
}Don’t include
/*and*/as these are used to add comments and anything between them is ignored by your browser. Also, you had height and width reversed.Try those changes and see what happens.

Well, there is so much customisation it is hard to tell. Are you using a child theme? If so, you should not copy entire stylesheet into the child theme folder.
It is difficult, if not impossible, to write code that renders the same in all browsers, especially one as old as IE7, and one that is as non-compliant as Internet Explorer.

Link to site?

September 6, 2011 at 2:23 am #16879Try searching this forum. This has been discussed already and you will probably find exactly what you are looking for. You can start with this post.

This is a guess because I haven’t had time to figure it out yet. But it’s a hint.
The main content area of Graphene is 960px wide. You say you are able to widen the sidebar. Start with that original width, and subtract it from 960. That gives a general idea of the width you are looking for in the stylesheet that you need to change. (Margins and paddings can mean it’s not exact.)
Example: if the sidebar you are changing is originally 200px, for example, then 960-200=760. So you are looking for something in the stylesheet that is around 760px wide.
Not the best advice, but it’s how I would proceed. Let us know if you try this and what you find out.

I’m working on a series of very basic WordPress tutorials on my blog, with lots of screenshots to guide folks along. You can view the category here. You can contact me there about what else you would like to see.

September 6, 2011 at 12:22 am #16744Try tinypic or twitpic or something similar. Or post a screen shot on a test post that you can later discard. The forum post on my end says “[attachments are only viewable by logged in members]” so we can’t see what’s going on.
That fixed it, but “graphene_top_search” shows up twice.
This is an awesome idea, BTW. It makes customising the theme lots easier.
Actually, for what you want to do, you could just figure out the correct CSS and add it to the “Custom CSS” portion of Graphene Options. You only need to do a child theme if you have a lot of custom CSS or want to make other changes.
