This will be available in the next update. If you must have it now, I described a way to do it a month or so ago. A quick search should do the trick.

I’m not sure when the next update will be, but there will be a lot of new features.

You are using a static front page, yes?

URL? When I click on your name, I get a “server not found” message.

Sorry, I don’t know enough about PHP to tell you why you are getting that error message.

That said, however, there are a lot of e-commerce plugins you can use, many of which don’t charge a thing. My own host offers a couple of options for e-commerce, at no charge. So look around before signing up for anything that asks for numbers.

My 2 cents/pence, anyway.

In reply to: Why is page link showing up on post?

#16786

Surely there has to be a simple way to:

1. Group posts together

-maybe all within a category or sub-category?

That’s what category archives are all about. If you look at the secondary menu on my personal blog, practically all of those links are category archives. Here is an example.

That page looks exactly the way it’s supposed to look like, but from what I’ve been reading on this forum, a lot of folks are looking for something different. There are some other options; it’s one of the reasons I decided to use a child theme. I doubt that it will be simple, but I’m working on it. Just limited by time.

given my goal is to create, say, many ten page articles like this…and have the user easily go from page one > 2 > 3 etc. is there a fundamentally different way to do this?

Write one big long article, and then use the “Easy Multiple Pages” plugin to break it up. You can see an example of it in action here. It’s not quite what you were looking for (it doesn’t have the arrows), but it is still seriously cool.

You are very welcome,

Thanks. I try to help people in a way that they learn something, too, so feel free to borrow whatever I’ve done and adapt it to your own purposes.

Include a link to your site sometime so we can see what you’re up to.

In reply to: font size short code

#16725

Sort of figured it out.

I added this to child theme CSS:

#smalltext {font-size:85%;}

and this to child theme functions:

function smalltext_shortcode_handler( $atts, $content=null, $code="" ) {

return '<span id="smalltext">' . $content . '</span>';

}

add_shortcode( 'small', 'smalltext_shortcode_handler' );

It works, but I have to type [small] and [/small] myself. I haven’t yet figured out how to add it to the MCE editor.

Try using Firebug. Without seeing your website and seeing what layout you have, it’s a little difficult to say.

If you follow this post, you can see the CSS I used to add rounded corners, so you can use it to take them off.

Cheers,

In reply to: How to modify the theme using a child theme

#10930

wouldn’t that overwrite prior code from the theme?

It didn’t for me. That was the point of the codex page I linked to. Using the light header bars load another stylesheet, that overrides the child’s stylesheet. Turning off those light header bars prevents this.

If you want to use the light header bars with your child theme, you can copy the relevant codes form the light style sheet to your child’s style sheet.
