ok - my bad on the footer thing - my WP editor wasn't updated so I had to log out and back in again.

So I got the footer thing to work for the background color (brown) but I don't really want the widget content itself to span the view port - just the background color.

I left the changes you recommended so you could see...any thoughts?

Ok. So how do I know what size gradient to create and the code to set to make it full width?

I did what you recommended for the footer and it didn't change anything. My code looks like this now:

/* Footer Widgets ------------------------------------------------------------ */

#footer-widgets {  -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px #000;  -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px #000;  background-color: #273549;  box-shadow: 0 1px 3px #000;  margin: 0 auto;  overflow: hidden;   }

#footer-widgets .wrap {  color: #fff;  font-size: 12px;  line-height: 20px;  padding: 20px 20px 0;  margin-left: auto;  margin-right: auto;

 

would you mind looking and helping me see what I am doing wrong? 🙂

Sure, no problem - it's starting to get confusing. I guess I forgot the http:// in the first post because I can see now that my link was hard to find.

You can see my website here: http://216.172.181.99/~cchs

Questions:

1. I'd like to have a gradient image behind the the logo that stretches the full width of the screen like the subnav does. Similar to this site:http://www.davidsporleder.com/

2. I'd also like to make the brown color of the footer the full width of the screen also. (footer widgets can stay where they are)

Hope that clears things up and I appreciate anyone's input on my site.

Thank you!

Thanks SoZo.

I removed the width from wrap and I tried several widths and margins for the #header and I'm not getting anything to budge.  I'm not sure what I am not getting right.

I am just trying to get the logo back to the center area where the body is and I really want the background color for a full width header to show up and I can't get any color to appear.

This might be a better example of what I am trying to achieve: http://www.davidsporleder.com/

I need to get the logo in the same place and I'd like to have a background color full width just above my nav menus.

I appreciate your help very much - I'm still learning. 🙂

Hi. I am having a similar problem. I tried to add the suggested code to remove the author box on single posts and I got this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/vietnam/public_html/wp-config.php on line 1

So I tried to follow Nick's tips and tricks tutorial for wp-config debugging and I also deleted my functions.php using filezilla and re-uploaded it. I also checked for the ?> and it's not there. After all this, I still have the dreaded white screen.

Can you help me figure out what the heck I am doing wrong?
