  • WordPress Producing Duplicate Images in Easy FancyBox

    Just checked all the p tags. They all seem to be closed. Also, when I don't encapsulate the h4 and p it doesn't duplicate the image, which furthers your point. But I don't see any un-closed tags. But if I use the bit of code you poste…

  • WordPress Producing Duplicate Images in Easy FancyBox

    @TheDoc, okay, I wrapped the anchor tag around the h4 and p tag, but I need to know if what I am experiencing now is a problem with my code or an issue with the WordPress plugin I am using. Basically, when you click on one of the images and begin t…

  • WordPress Producing Duplicate Images in Easy FancyBox

    @TheDoc: I used this... .gallery { width: 970px; height: 100%; margin: 0 -10px 0 0; } And it works like a charm. Thank you for the suggestion! As for the solution to my first question, this is what my HTML code looks like... …

  • WordPress Producing Duplicate Images in Easy FancyBox

    @Paulie_D: Hrm, I used this to target the fifth child and every fifth child: .image-box:nth-child(5n+5) And it removes the right margin from the first child. Not sure what is happening there. So, I then targeted just the fifth child: .image-box:…

    Yeah, I think :nth-child will do the trick, because if I were to add left margin and remove it from the first child, I would still have to define the beginning of each row. Okay, one question answered. On to the next one! Thanks, @Paulie_D!

    Okay, using :nth-child may be problematic. For example: #linky .boxy:nth-child(4n) { background-color: #123456; } This will make every fourth child (4, 8, 12, 16, et cetera) a dark blue. But if I then say: #linky .boxy:nth-child(3n) { ba…

    Change of plans. I took out box-sizing and the 10 pixel margin. Now, what I would like to do is set nine different colors and apply a separate color to each blog post. I know this can be done with :nth-child, I am just not sure how to implement it. …

    Yeah, the header is a bit screwy. But also, the opening statement on the front page is only taking up half the screen and flowing on three lines. And the posts should be taking up the entire 960 pixel width and it's not. Also, if you visit my &…

    Okay, added. It threw everything out of whack. You can check it here. I gotta head to bed. Have to wake up early. I'll revisit everything tomorrow. Later!

    Okay, added margin-right: 0px; and I checked it in Google Chrome. Nothin'. I didn't realize you had to state 0px. I thought the code for :last-child would override the other.

  • Masonry & WordPress

    @chrisburton: I thought about that, but within the Masonry concept, would it ever recognize a div that is indeed the last-child of a particular row of posts? Edit: This is the correct usage of :last-child, right? #linky .boxy:last-child If it …

    Thank you so much, @mcjohnst! I now have something to look at. One quick question though (and I believe this is a CSS question): Each .boxy has a margin-right of 10px. Well, that is all fine and dandy for the first three divs, but what if I want my …

    Okay. Closing script tag done. I apologize for that one. Website is back to normal apart from my blog posts missing on the front page. In the tutorial it says that he is "using WP_Query to specifically fetch the latest 15 posts from [his] Links…

    @chrisburton and @mcjohnst: Okay, I placed the jQuery function back in the html-header.php and I believe #linky is outside of the loop now. Go here to see the broken website. How do I check error messages with Google Chrome?

    Okay, so I actually want Masonry, rather than Isotope. I found this page, here, and I am trying to implement it with my current theme, here. So, I followed the tutorial and it completely crashed my site. Now, I need to figure out what I did wrong. …

    Hrm, iPhone and pulsating. That is a new one. I wonder what is causing it. I wonder if it is the Starkers theme I am using. Anywho, okay, I'll target the loop in the index.php and report back if anything arises.

    Pulsating? You mean the color shift on rollover?

    Okay, that works. Question: I tried targeting .current-menu-item a without using !important and it didn't work. How does !important change it? Thank you for the tip! Edit: Thank you, @Senff.

    Post the live site. From the code you posted, all we know is that there are two div ids, one of logo focusing on the img tag and the other is called wp-title-logo, both with three text shadows. That is all we know from that. Edit: Oh, in8designs.co…

    I would need to add theme support for menus. A fresh download of Starkers v4.0 does not provide such things. I am just afraid of how I would go about styling the menu once it has been generated in WordPress. I don't really know that much about …
