HTML - Wordpress Page Headers Help
Hi,
I have just started to manage a website on Wordpress. There is a header at the top of every page. It used to say the name of the website, but for some reason it has changed to the name of a post that was made a long time ago. Does anyone know how to change this header? Thank you very much. Similar TutorialsHi everyone. Was just wondering out of interest, what everyone's preferred method for their website headers is. Which of these do you prefer? 1. Setting background attributes for a #background div via your css file. 2. Having the image and anything else in an include file and using php includes. 3. Placing the code directly within your header div in the main code page. Of these three, no.3 is one I generally just don't do. The other two are both good options I think. With 1, a problem that arises is you are unable to use the alt attribute for any images set via your CSS file, which obviously falls down on the accessibility side. With 2, you can set an alt attribute for any images, I therefore prefer this method. Hello Everyone, I have had a continuing problem where I have a small to midsize gap in my header on my site, The Final Fight.com. I also have the same problem with my forums, which the gap became apparent when I made a new forum skin that matches our homepage. Any Help with this problem would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, MAYH3M I know this is very rudimentary, but Im having trouble getting the header and footer of my site to bleed off the page. Right now I have it contained, and you can see that there is negative space around these elements. See here http://sassnyc.com/stage/andrewsass.com/ I'm trying to figure out how to fix this, and I know its simple... Code: <h1>Kookaburras from<br /> The Margaret River Rock</h1> I need to align that but i don't know how. Since h1 doesn't have an align attribute in XHTML and I'm not experienced in it at all. Thanks. why doesnt ebay use headers? h1 h2 ect.. I viewed the source and was surprised not to find a h1, h2 or h3 ect.. I am just wondering if anyone knows why eBay isn't web standards compliant? I am going to do my first website, and I need headings at the top of the page with , Home, Products, Services and Contact headings at the top but I need them to be inside a rectangular tab with round edges. So I need help in information on whether I have to format or style the headings with css eg. h1.one font-family etc etc. and then on the header <h1 class="one"> etc etc. I might be wrong but is there way I can get the headers I want to be round edged? I am new to html so my answer might have been totally wrong just using my own assumptions. Thanks for help and if someone has ideas for other type of header styles I could use I will appreciate the info. If I have an image on my web server how do I monitor the requests made for that image? i.e record the ip address and browser that made each request. Thanks Alright, this is an admittedly novice question but I haven't been able to figure it out yet and would love some help. I'm currently coding a website (my first, clearly) that will ultimately have a large number of pages. I understand the value of writing semantic code and pairing it with an external style sheet to make changes in design quick and easy across a website. My question is, how do you code common elements across the website (ie headers, navigation bars, footers, etc) so that making a change only once (such as adding a tab to the navigation bar) will change it across the site, without having to change the code on each individual page? I understand that you can do this with php, but it doesn't seem to be the common solution. Is there another way to accomplish this without php? Thanks in advance everybody! Just getting my feet wet. using XMLSpy stylesheet designer to help guide. I'm converting XML to HTML, which is Microsoft's recommended way of controlling the import of XML into Excel. I've got the stylesheet below in productive use. However, I want to make one key change. I want the name of XML elements to become the text column headings so I can deal with files that have dynamic column names. Suggestions appreciated. Here is typical XML: <NewDataSet> <Table> <Name>Linda Britt</Name> <RFQCount>324</RFQCount> <RFQResponseCount>556</RFQResponseCount> </Table> </NewDataSet> Here is the stylesheet.

I've ran into a problem and i cant seem to find an answer. When i write a post or page, and i want to add my own code, it ends up messing it up pretty bad. I go to write page and select the code view, then i put in sum code such as Code: <div class="title">Links</div> <div id="linksbox"> <ul id="linklist"> <li> <a href="#"><img src="images/test.jpg" alt="html" /> <div class="text"><h3>header</h3><p>this is some text that is a paragraph</p></div> </a> </li> <li><a href="#">Item two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item five</a></li> </ul> </div> and when i view the page and view the source the code was outputted as this: and doesn't even work right: Code: <div class="title">Links</div> <div id="linksbox"> <ul id="linklist"> <li> <a href="#"><img src="images/test.jpg" alt="html" /></p> <div class="text"> <h3>header</h3> <p>this is some text that is a paragraph</p> </div> <p> </a> </li> <li><a href="#">Item two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item five</a></li> </ul> </div> then i go back to edit the post and it looks like this Code: <p class="title">Links</p> <p id="linksbox"> <ul id="linklist"> <li> <a href="#"><img src="images/test.jpg" alt="html" /></a> <p class="text"> <h3><a href="#">header</a></h3> <a href="#">this is some text that is a paragraph</a> <a href="#"> </a></li> <li><a href="#">Item two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item five</a></li> </ul> anyone know why this happens, or how to make it so it don't do that? Hello, i'm setting up a website on Wordpress and I want the following: 1. A static (non blog) contact page just like this http://i25.tinypic.com/29lmyo3.jpg 2. I want my blog postings to be archived in pages just like this: http://i30.tinypic.com/3004epj.jpg as opposed to scrolling down the whole page to see my posts. Is this a default feature in Wordpress or do I have to do something to make this happen to my posts? 3. My template only has one column, I would like to split it into two columns (http://i30.tinypic.com/3004epj.jpg) like this site, so I can have a place to put adverts etc. Thank you I would like to know if anyone knows how to integrate a Wordpress blog into your html website? Would I have to make a template from scratch just for Wordpress or is their a simple way of doing this? I like my sites design and would love to keep it that way. Please let me know. Thank you very much. Jenna Hey! I've recently transfered my blog over to wordpress.org (from wordpress.com) and now have the ability to alter my template, but i need some help with a few things! The current widgets i have up i believe came across with the back up copy of my original blog, but they aren't mentioned within 'widgets' in my dashboard. I added a mailing list and I'm wanting it to appear under the search bar, i presume to do this i will need to alter the code, but i can't find where to edit the code as i added the mailing list box as a widget, and it hasn't seemed to appear within the code where all the other current widgets i have are displayed. Does anyone know how i can move the mailing list up higher?? Also, I'm wanting to create a 'home' page which directs back to the home page of my blog. I had this set-up on my previous blog where i set the title to the url. But i removed it as with the new template it directed to a new page, called home. I'm wondering if someone knows how i can set up a page that directs to the home page of my blog? And also, if it's possible to place the page at the front of my other pages. Ie. "Home : About : Recommended Reading". And not "About : Recommended Reading : Home". ? And one last thing! I'm wanting to add a Google search tool to the current search bar that's on my blog. I would like it to look the same, if thats possible(?) but have the option of searching my blog, or the web along with a small Google banner at the bottom. I'm unsure where i should add this code, as within the theme editor i have a section titled "search results" which is a fairly long php code, and i also have a small section within the "sidebar" section which says: <!-- Search --> <div id="sidebar-search"> <form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"> <input type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" name="s" id="s" /> <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="" /> </form> </div> <!-- /Search --> Should i add the Google html code to that part? Or will i need to change the php code as well for it to work? Appreciate any help! www.nikkisblogspot.com Hi folks, I'm trying to achieve something in a wordpress widget, but no good result so far. Please have a look at the image. My problem is that I cant separate text from the image on the right side. Cant give the space between "vivamus lectus" and the "venenatis tempus..." And cant separate social icons on bottom without using a table. I'm coding it with normal html, no css. Can you please help me out? thanks hi, what's the best cms, wordpress or Jomla ? I really like the backup plugins in Joomla, I dunno if it exists something similar in wordpress. The wordpress backend seems to be more professional... thanks Hi, My website is really acting strange. I've altered my header.php page to display a custom banner I made for the front page instead of "Site Title" (div class = "head-title") which was what it was set to. I thought I was good to go until I click the other pages. For some reason the banner magically disappears on the rest of the pages. The main index.php and page.php templates both have <?php get_header(); ?> at the top of each. So the code looks identical when I view page source for the other pages. I'm stumped as to why the header isn't showing throughout the site. Please help if you can. URL: http://www.princesscutdiamond.org.
