That box is called the “slider” BTW. If you don’t have a picture in your post, it won’t show up in the slider.

Twenty-Ten and Coraline.

Actually, “status” might be what I’m looking for.

In reply to: pages vs categories

Okay, I think I’ve got this figured out.

First, go to Admin >> Appearance >> Menus

You are going to create a custom menu that contains all the links you want. On the right side, you’ll see a box labeled “Menu Name.” Enter anything you want (visitors to your blog won’t see it) and click “Save.”

Now look to the left. See where it says “Custom Link”? Enter the URL (including the “http://” bit, and in the box that says “Label” enter what you want the link to be called (this is what visitors to your blog will see, so call it something link “My Other Blog” and not “link #2”).

Click “Add to Menu.” On the right side, your link will appear in your custom menu area.

Add as many links as you want.

Once you have your links added to your custom menu, you can grab them and drag them to whatever order you want. Put them in order and then click “Save Menu” again.

Now, on the left side, you’ll see a box labeled “Theme Locations.” In the drop-down menu that says “Header Menu” select your custom menu. Click “Save.”

If you navigate back to your blog, you will see that instead of a list of pages, you will now have the links that you want.

This will completely eliminate the links to any pages you have created, however. The pages are still there. If you want readers to have access to them, you’ll have to create a sticky post and link to them from there, or link to them in a text widget.

Enjoy!

Ken

PS: To get back to your original question, however, what you will include in the link URL is the actual category link.

In reply to: Change blue gradient of slider colour

#14664

Add this bit of custom CSS (Grapheme Options >> Display >> Custom CSS>

.featured_slider {

background: -moz-linear-gradient(left top , #0F2D4D, #2880C3)

repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;}

Change to two color codes you see there. The first one is the upper left corner, the second is the bottom right corner. Enjoy!

In reply to: Blue Box over every Post, similar to widgets

#14653

Not quite sure what you mean here. As far as I can tell, all of your widgets appear the same everyhere: posts, pages, category pages.

Or do you mean this, which only shows up in your category pages? Do you want that to appear at the top of every post?

And to pick new colors, and get the correct codes:

CSS Color Codes, with a color picker. Enjoy!

You can find out if the Sharebar plugin is compatible or not by temporarily turning it off. Flush your caches and reload the page. If the problem is gone (or different), then yes, it’s incompatible.
