It is working much better than the first time. You can still see there is a line misplaced by my social media widgets. I can make it go away if I don't include the widget above it with my about/contact links. Anyway to get rid of it without having to completely get rid of those links?
Hmm, okay. I would be willing to mess with my PHP but I have messed with it before and its been a headache. I really would just like to be able to remove the required fields asterisk and get rid of the website field. Trying to just clean it up a bit.
Yes, but I wanted it to go horizontal across the top of the page. I think I like the way it is for now. I appreciate the willingness to help though Jeff.
That time it worked. So, just for future reference how do I find the page ID? I know it is by viewing the source code but how do I get there? Thanks Brad.
Add the simple hooks plugin?
I have used firebug to inspect the page. The two for now that I want to remove it from are these:
http://www.diathletes.com/about/
http://www.diathletes.com/contact/
I'm trying to learn how to do it so I can repeat it if I ever need it again.
I know how to remove them in my style.css but won't that remove them from my entire website? I want to just remove them from those two pages which it sounds like is why I need the hooks plugin.
What is my next step after installing the plugin?
Thanks again.
Brad,
Thank you for the help. I'm not very experienced with this so I think the vocab is what is confusing for me. It sounds like what I want to do it setup a widget for after posts but I'm not really sure after that.Where you had the 'post' would I add the URL to the page that I don't want to widget area to show up? Could you give me some more clarification for how this works?
Thanks again for your help.
Brad,
Where would I create the new widget area? Do I paste that in a particular area in my style.css?Thanks for the suggestion. I may not be using it correctly but when I tried it it just jammed up all my content in the sidebar.
Victor,
Thank you for the help across these forums. I as a new guy really appreciate people like you. You've taught me that I can paste that into my style.css just about anywhere. I was worried it had to go into a certain location.Thank you!
I will certainly check out those tutorials. I will also play around with the CSS as I am learning more and more everyday. Thank you for those explanations though too!
So, just to make sure I am understanding you correctly... If I change the font like you explained there then that will be the default font for each new post title or will I have to change it for each post title as I go?
Also, is serif the font type? Do I ever have to change that to something else? What is that there for?
.entry-title {
font-family: 'MyNewFont', serif;
font-size: 36px;
line-height: 1;
}That was so easy. I always feel silly after people like you help me out. Thank you for leading me in the right direction.
I am back up and running but had to restore a website file backup. Another 15 minutes and it should be back.
Marcy,
This is super helpful! I applied the change to eliminate the floating header and now I think I like it when it stays put even as one would scroll through my posts. But, I do want to still add a subscribe option form in that header section. When I tried to add it before, I noticed that it was out of the screen view and you couldn't scroll to get it it. Is there a way to make it so that it scrolls down a little bit so I have some room? Or, where else would you suggest me putting a subscription form?Perhaps, I can figure out how to move the sidebar over and then create enough room for a sidebar on both sides of the page. The one on the left will be how it is and then the one on the right can have a sign up form?
I like what you are saying about the widgets at the bottom and I will definitely look into those but I want to be able to have something on the top of the page as well. I am working on a pop up but honestly don't really want that on my site. I want people to come read and not be bothered to just subscribe.
