The “blog” page of a static front page points to posts (not pages) that you have written.

Are you using multisite?

am pretty sure it may be a Graphene thing

Have you switched to the default 2014 theme and tested to verify this?

You can if you do a forum search. It’s in there, somewhere, I swear. I have neither the time nor the motivation right now. Busy, busy, busy.

As I said, the Graphene theme isn’t really set up to do this. If you really want a feature like that, you should use a theme that supports it, or else it’s a lot of work and troubleshooting, and a single update may cause all of that work to become undone.

FWIW, that site is using a child theme of the Bacchus theme, which is not available from the WordPress theme repository. Instead, it’s a custom theme from a company at http://synesteth.com, whose website is not up yet. But you can view the css for the Bacchus theme here:

http://pantryliquors2.com/wp-content/themes/bachus/style.css

and the child theme stylesheet here:

http://pantryliquors2.com/wp-content/themes/bachus-child/style.css

if that gives you any ideas.

Your child theme is loading third to last.

You could disable the light style options in Graphene, since you are overriding all of those styles anyway. Not sure if this will fix it, but it will save you some overhead.

Graphene is really not built for this sort of thing.

As I recall, someone managed it a few years ago. It was neither easy nor enjoyable.

If you search the forum, you may find it. I don’t have a link to it.

In reply to: Question about robots.txt

#43166

There is no best practice as far as coding, but I think if you google most companies, those basic pages do come up in their search results.

I always tell my clients that that at a minimum, they should include an “About” page and a “Contact” page to increase their appearance of legitimacy. Whether or not you want privacy policy, etc., to show is a business decision you have to make based on the nature of your business. Would people want to find out about your privacy policy, etc?

Your robots.txt file goes in your root directory. If you set WordPress to discourage search engines from indexing your site, it will actually create one for you.

You can learn everything you need to know about robots.txt files from http://www.robotstxt.org/

Keep in mind that search engines are under no obligation whatsoever to pay attention to your robots.txt file, although most of the big ones do.

In reply to: How can I make a simple sliding Header

#43150

There are various image php rotator scripts available on the web.

Your best option is to create a child theme, create a folder in that theme that contains your header images, set the script to point at that folder, and then set your header’s background image to point at that script in the style sheet.

I have done this on hand-coded sites many times, but I have never tried it in WordPress.

In reply to: What is the trick to get "Author" to show on my pages

#43152

Pages don’t show authors. That’s the WordPress default.

You can add the author to pages by using a PHP widget and an action hook widget area. The code you would use is:

<?php the_author() ?>

Not tested, your mileage may vary.

There is also this plugin, which I haven’t tested:
