Planning to do a switch to 'Fog', soon. (www.dtoxcanada.com)Presently, blogging with a theme by Sadish Bala-Niga Rila. Shall need some help to do the mod on the Fog theme.
Most of the changes apply to the fonts/color/size and adding an intro pic, as in NigaRila theme.
Most of the mods are planned for the end of the year or early '08

I've played with the Fog theme, but not savvy, enough, to do the mods that I would like to see on the theme. www.dtoxcanada.com Can you skin to NigaRila theme...how much work/time/cost would be involved??? I'm not certain if, after the skin, that the sidebars and the post box would be more as in Fog, which I prefer.(the rside could be an inch, or so, wider)But, the sidebars (2) might have to be on the right side to end up below the intro box as in NigaRila. I assume it would be best if we spoke on the phone...email a number, if you wish. How soon can the skinning be done?
After this post, I'll send you passwords that you need to have a look.

Hope all is well for you and yours! One little problem on www.dtoxcanada.com. WeShow video, which is running in a text-box widgets has a problem...it seems to slide down and away from the title(GoRawFood). I re-position it by using F5 4-5 times. But, it is annoying. Can this be fixed or should I find a replacement for WeShow? Thanks.

That's it..........Claude.

@Claude: your theme uses fluid width, while the gadget is fixed width,
see WeShow _ widget _ type = ' 160 x 400 ' ;
try to decrease the width, then it won't "jump" around.
Reason for the screwing: browsers tend to give enough space for each application, but with a fluid solution and a fixed gadget there are always problems.
Hope this helps =)

Why I hate to upgrade!

I was running wp 2.1.2 and a modified fog theme.
I had been putting off an upgrade because I made a ton of special wp-list-cats, category and subcategory lists for my sidebar and that tag is depricated in 2.3.2.

There were too many new toys I couldn't use with the old version so I bit the bullet and upgraded. After several attempts to recode the mod with the new "wp-list-categories" tag I could not get my lists to show. That is when I went back to my admin panel and discovered that the reason was that 90% of my categories were lost in the upgrade.

I found a topic on the support forum followed the tips

wordpress support forum

but still can't get them back.

I will let you know if a fix pops up but be warned that funny things happen when you jump over several upgrades. Thank God for backups.

PS, Milo do you want that picture of the Queen Victoria and the fireworks?

Read at the forum, that you got the subcats back: good work =)
We might upgrade certain parts of the Fog theme, mail me please, if interested.

And yes, please: if it's somehow possible, please send the Queen Vic images.

Hope you are working 25/8 and happy. On www.dtoxcanada.com I want to re-position the mouse-over so it is in the upper right corner (over dtoxcanada). What changes do I have to make to affect an area approx. 360px W and 110 px H.
Thanks.

Please specify what you want, Claude, as it's not very clear what you mean: the tooltips shown on mouseover?

Well, on second read it seems like you mean the header h1 tag, right?

Try to increase the header and header h1 width to 99%, NOT -99%,
as it's an image replacement technique for the h1 tag, try this:

#header{
width:99%;
height:270px;margin:0 auto;background:transparent;}

#header h1,#header h1 a{display:block;height:110px;
width:99%;
text-indent:-9000px;margin:0; padding:0;}

The bolded sections are changed.

Also you can easily open a new thread and mark it as support, not solved,
then a red lamp will show up.

At www.dtoxcanada.com...the header picture was modified...and 'dtoxcanada' was added to the picture...the present top edge(black) still shows the mouse-over text 'Home is...'and I would want the mouse-over to be active when the text'dtoxcanada' is pointed to. The script that you sent I tried and it lowers the top menu.
If, you go to www.dtoxcanada.com and run the cursor over the top black edge...that's what I want over the site name dtoxcanada. Hope I am more clear...it's a newbie thing...

In order to achieve your effect of mouseover, we need to lower the top menu, otherwise IE will scrap the whole menu: having the h1 tag with the top menu at same height will make the menu inaccessible in IE, sorry, but this crap IE broswer doesn't work very well =(

When I change the permalinks settings to anything else but standard it is impossible to post any comments. Even don't get the box to do so. What am I doing wrong?

I am using the Fractalred-20 theme; http://fotografie.fraco.nl

I want to use a custom setting to create friendly urls by using: /%category%/%postname%-%post_id%.htm

Looks like there is more wrong, as no pages or single posts are accessible, but that has nothing to do with the theme, more with your server settings.

Using permalinks like this
e.g. /%category%/%postname%-%post_id%.htm
with htm or html ending must be supported by the server (host), via Wordpress admin is this configuration not possible.

Just installed Secondary (with Korean lang pack) and get this error message:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [redacted]~/korean/wp-content/themes/Secondary/functions.php:110) in /[redacted]~clayburell.com/html/korean/wp-includes/classes.php on line 806

I love the theme and hope to be able to use it. Any guidance? It's a brand new wp 2.6 install, by the way. No plugins activated, no posts. Straight out of the box.

Thanks :)

Well, where is this Korean language pack from?
Where did you download the theme?

Original Secondary WordPress theme does not contain a korean mo file.
