I broke the stinking theme AGAIN!! After all that work, too. I’m getting a parse error for an extra ‘$’ on a line that doesn’t have an ‘$’ and it’s really ticking me off. So I’m switching to this theme. It’s really cool, except for the issue that it is supposed to be 3-columns. So, it will be up and down and colors all funky, but should get better all day long. When the blogroll splits into my categories and slides over from underneath the other column, you know I’m learning something.
My car is running on 3 cylinders today after a spark plug gasket blew yesterday, so it’s time to replace the whole kit. I’ll be leaving after lunch, so we’ll see how much blogging I get done.
Edit: I discovered at my parents’ house when the rain got too bad to work on the car that the site displays just fine with Firefox. The text link ad is supposed to display in the far right (3rd) column and there should be a wrapping shadow to the right of the articles. If that is the case, please leave a comment about which browser you are using. – Thanks.
Ah I like the popularity contest plug in which I have downloaded but it’s asking to be installed in my wp-content/plugins directory!? Can you help and tell me where I might find this? I thought maybe it was a folder contained with the browser software folder but although it does have a plugin folder there it doesn’t contain the wp-content/plugins directory…cheers.
The plugins directory is for your blog, which will go in the FTP folder for your site. Being WordPress.com, I don’t think (95% sure) you have the ability to install plugins for your blog. It’s the difference between using WordPress and having it on their site. I saw some interviews with the creator of WP and they are developing more content capabilites for the .COM site, but right now, .ORG (the off-site hosted software) is the real workhorse/flagship.
Your correct, no plugins but thanks for the advice…yup using Firefox also and displays fine…nice work by the way.
Thanks for the kudos. I’m suspecting it may be the security settings here on our IE, so I’ll see if IE at home shows it correctly.
