please i know am about to ask a noobish question but i have to...please how do i host multiple domains on a particular hosting account? on my wordpress installation procedure i get the following feilds
in directory.........
database name..........
database setting.........
please how do i go about this for multiple site? do i have to create a new database and directory for each domain?
Thanks in advance

Sorry for asking a question to harrydino :
You say multiple domains ? Meaning actual domain names ? like example.com and example1.com
I have a WHM manager. Maybe look into that. Because then each domain has its own cpanel.

If it is a multi wordpress installation like the "Wordpress MU" I think that is what it is called, then you need to just create "SUB Domains" in your cpanel.

Sorry op for barging in here on your thread. But I follow it and Love it, I also learn a lot.

Thx
 
Lol no need for excuse, this is not just my thread, anyone who want's to help is welcome ;)
 
Got one that has me stumped.
Elegant Themes menu/s drop down goes behind content, sliders and flash in IE
Have messed with z index at least 4 different times. Tried overdoing the settings (+-10000) to see if I could break it but that didn't work.

Know how to force them to the front?

Thanks!!!

Hi spmcnerd,

I googled "menu drop down behind flash object wordpress"

The first 2 site's that I found suggested that some code needs to be added to your flash objects to make them transparent in a way.
Something about adding the following code to the flash object :

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

Please do google the above and read about it. Thx

What theme and what IE version?
 
Thanks Bullseye will do.

Currently version on 9 and the one before that. After a while I stopped testing earlier versions for the safety of my monitor. jk
The templates are from Elegant named Boutique and MyProduct
There is one update from Elegant but the release notes don't mention menu issues and I didn't make a child sheet...
From what I understand their updates will default back to their settings.

Much Appreciated!:drinking2

What theme and what IE version?
 
Hmm I was not able to reproduce the error. Why don't you ask on the support forums? They have great support.
 
I am trying to get a wordpress site up for a charity group but I am stuck with one plugin. The plugin is called The Events Calendar, the problem is it displays a transparent background so text doesn't stand out against the dark background of my theme.




The top three hits in google seem to have the same problem but I don't understand CSS so have no idea how to fix it.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to have the background white like on the other pages? I have tried changing the templates in the plugin to default Events template and default page template but neither make any difference.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers
 
Hi Diddy, can you pm me the link to the live site and I will check it out.
 
Thanks OriginalEXE I had just got the solution from another forum that I am a member of. Thanks anyway.

lol Because their answers start out w/ I cannot reproduce... and end with what versions of everything are you running, it must be a plugin did you make potty today...
Then after chasing tail it's oh you can't change color of that button (or something similar)
Just playing around! Have a feeling their menu doesn't work with WP's
Thanks again for your help
 
Can you send me the link to the live site you are having problme on?
 
OriginalEXE I have another Question.

On the Theme Geoplaces v3 I have a Sign In Page. This page is Customized to fit the theme.
What I have done is I have Blocked so that you have to be Registered to Comment or in this case Review.

So what wordpress say is : You must be logged in[FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif] to post a comment.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]Can this text be changed ? also the "logged in" link links to the standard Wordpress login page. Is there any way I can change this link ? [/FONT]
 
Please pm me the link to your theme download.

Hi, please send me the link to download theme you are using and plugin files.

Also, I have checked out this plugin layouts here: http://codecanyon.net/item/evo-slider-pro-jquery-slider-plugin/full_screen_preview/1967625 but couldn't find 'rotation' skin so pls explain that also.
 
Hi OriginalEXE,

I have a quick question which I'd be grateful if you could answer.

I have a custom theme installed and would like to edit the right side bar (widget) so that it is narrower (just enough to accomodate the text) and moves over to the far right of the page. It is much bigger than it needs to be and is using a lot of page width. I would then like the body text to become naturally wider aswell, after the right column has been altered (i.e so the text doesn't stay in the current position and leave a big gap between it and the side bar).

Here is a picture to try and aid with understanding of what I mean:

I've tried doing it in firebug without much success and can't find the right place to edit in the style sheets!

Thanks in advance,

J.

Well that didn't come up in the CSS at all. Works great much appreciated +rep.

I'm saving this particular piece of CSS code to make future WP page adjustments--thank you for contributing it. This is the first resource for this kind of code that I've found that does not require me to sift through scads of extra information that is not helpful for the immediate purpose. For the Wordpress newbies, it might be a good idea to add exactly where in the admin panel to add this code for margin adjustment. Another thing to add to this thread would be some more basic CSS code pieces to make Wordpress customization easier and faster.

Hi, I understand you completely. What I would need is the theme download or link to the live site.

That is pretty much imposible, because, if you kare familiar with the css, it requres divs and classes that are specific to the theme author, thats why the same code will not work for two different themes.

You ass css code by going to WordPress administration - Appearance - Editor.
First thing that opens is editor for style.css, in the end of that bunch of text you add your code.
