When not perched on my workspace, I tremendously enjoy hiking in the bushes and climbing mountains. They serve as much-needed refuges from the pretense of cities.

Erm..where did you put the code currently? Also, what happened to the site’s footer?
Try deleting the theme, and then installing it again.
Jestdie, the link you provided redirected to a forum.

Quote:Is it true that we can convert wordpress to joomla?I’m sure there are tools (Joomla extension, maybe) that can convert all of WordPress posts/pages into the Joomla equivalent. But keep in mind that these are two totally separate platforms. How things work in the back end are totally different. For example, the templating system in Joomla is totally different than the one in WordPress.
It’s a matter of personal taste, I suppose. I find WordPress to be far more user-friendly (both code-wise and UI-wise) and easier to customise and extend than Joomla.
Quote:It seems to be happening on all posts. I haven’t tried Pages yet. And yes, when I say hard Coded I mean actually adding the <p> and BR tags by hand. I’ve noticed as well that if I switch to VISUAL tab before saving the Hard Coded Tags are deleted as well.Have you edited any of the theme’s files? Or maybe some plugin interfering? What you’re describing with the visual editor is exactly how the editor is expected to work. Those tags are stripped when going from HTML to Visual mode because they are not needed. WordPress automatically adds the
<p>and<br>tags based on the carriage return characters via thewpautop()function.Quote:I would have taken it that tags do not appear on the first iteration as they usually get stripped (i mean the tags are removed) by default …This is correct only for excerpts, and not when the post/page is viewed in full. WordPress automatically strips all tags and shortcodes from excerpts.
Quote:… but if you have already changed the settings and made a point which tags are to be retained and looked past the removal, it should start working perfectly normal.Yes, since the theme will tell WordPress to strip all tags from the excerpts except the one you specified in the theme’s options to not be stripped from excerpts. Again, this only applies to excerpts. No HTML tags are stripped from the content when the post/page is viewed in full (except unsafe HTMLs, which are being filtered out by the WordPress’
wp_kses_post()function).Hurm..that’s weird..is that the only page where this is happening? FYI, the theme does not handle the automatic addition of the
<p>and<br>tags – WordPress handles those. The theme just displays it.BTW, what do you mean by the hard-coded version? Does it mean that you manually enter the
<p>and<br>tags in the HTML mode of the editor?Quote:(I thought maybe I needed move the slider div tag into the header, just above the nav div…but…I can’t find a slider div tag in any of the theme files, and I’m unsure where to look.)That would be the ideal way of implementing it, but it’ll involves creating a
functions.phpfile in your child theme and adding a number of custom functions in there.The easier way (though not ideal) is to just use CSS positioning to move things around instead. Please provide the URL to your site so that we can take a look.
That is the excerpt of the post being displayed. By default, WordPress strips all HTML tags from automatic excerpts, but you can override this behaviour by telling WordPress which tags to preserve. See the option in Graphene Options > Display > Excerpts Display Options > Retain these HTML tags in excerpts.
In fact, yes, it needs quite a substantial amount of coding. Basically, what you need to do is create a custom template file, and then style that template file to look like what you wanted. Sorry, but this goes beyond the level of free support that I can provide as it involves quite a substantial code writing.
