empek got a reaction from Neil Carpenter in Problem with SlideshowWorks fine on Chrome for Mac.
Have you tried clearing your own browser cache? Maybe you've still got WIP development code saved in there.

empek got a reaction from OwenONeill in WP Log-inPretty unique usecase scenario you have here, and while I don't know how to go about it at the moment, I'll do some fiddling and see if I can come up with a way.

empek got a reaction from TheNickyYo in I need a serious honest review/help for what i feel are crappy designsYour links aren't loading for me, but based on kree8tor's review I would say that designing with content in mind may influence you to come up with a design solution you otherwise might have missed.
Embrace the content, and seek your inner designer peace. Namaste. (LOL)

empek got a reaction from TheNickyYo in web-design critique neededThis thread is pretty funny, but all negative comments and personal affairs aside, I'll actually give an honest review about the design:
Positives:
The layout is pretty good.
The relativity in size of content buckets to each other looks good
The design is all aligned to a set width
Negatives:
As you might have guessed by now, green and brown don't make a very good combination, and especially the shades you've chosen
Try to make your margins consistent. Choose a distance that works, and stick to it. It's a subtle element, but it goes a long way. (margin is the distance between things like your content buckets: sidebar, main content)
The shadows on elements inputs in the header are a bit large. Try making them a bit smaller and give them a 11% opacity white drop-shadow to sell the 'embedded' effect
The gradients on your list items are too strong. Keep your gradients very subtle so they don't take away from the content that will be on them
The background has too much detail, and since it has a pretty obvious patterned texture on it, it starts to blend with the content, and disorient
Also as others have stated, next time you ask for a review of a website design, try to get some content on it, even if it's lorem ipsum.
Hope that helps.

Check out the validation for the default theme that comes pre-installed with Wordpress!

empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.+1 What I was about to get at.
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Ok this is my last resort, but I'm gonna wing this one:
Change this:
<meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>" /> <title><?php /* * Print the <title> tag based on what is being viewed. * We filter the output of wp_title() a bit -- see * boilerplate_filter_wp_title() in functions.php. */ wp_title( '|', true, 'right' ); ?></title>
To this:
<title><?php wp_title();?></title> <meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">

empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Sad but true.
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Well at least we now know that your problem is in your header.php.
Get rid of everything after the <body> tag, and save it to the link please.
BTW: I hope you're pasting the code you're removing somewhere safe.
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.put this above wp_head();
<!--[if gte IE 9]> <style type="text/css"> .gradient { filter: none; } </style> <![endif]-->
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.What's you raw code like?
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.For now I can still see that you have all these classes on your html tag:
<html dir="ltr" lang="en-US" class=" js flexbox canvas canvastext webgl no-touch geolocation postmessage websqldatabase indexeddb hashchange history draganddrop websockets rgba hsla multiplebgs backgroundsize borderimage borderradius boxshadow textshadow opacity cssanimations csscolumns cssgradients cssreflections csstransforms csstransforms3d csstransitions fontface video audio localstorage sessionstorage webworkers applicationcache svg inlinesvg smil svgclippaths">

empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.I second updating the link.
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Make that code this for now:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html <?php language_attributes(); ?>> <head>
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Since when are you allowed to put a class on your <html> tag? Pretty sure that's your problem.
Check this reference for supported attributes: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_html.asp
-
empek got a reaction from user-removed in This is going to be something stupid.Dont suppose you can paste your code in here? A link would also be nice.
I'm also assuming this is Wordpress?
-
empek reacted to DigitalSquid in This is going to be something stupid.W3C Validator says you've got a BOM hidden at the start of the code before the <Doctype> which is throwing everything off kilter. In whatever code editor you're using, completely delete EVERYTHING on the first line of your code and re-write it from scratch (no copying and pasting).
-
empek reacted to Renaissance-Design in This is going to be something stupid.Also, self-closing tags: pick a style and stick to it. You have some in your header with /> and some without, which may be causing the parse error in dev tools.
-
empek reacted to MikeChipshop in This is going to be something stupid.Did you come on here looking help? If so, why question the people that are trying to help you?
If you update the link when you've changed what we've asked you too then we can see what the changes have done.
I'm going to duck out of this thread now as i don't appreciate being ignored and questioned when i'm just trying to help you.

empek got a reaction from OwenONeill in Two WP Questions?Exactly what I would suggest.
Once you get that sorted, you could start modifying the admin section under their role capabilities.
Here's are some good articles on modifying the wordpress admin:

empek reacted to Faevilangel in Two WP Questions?To add a new functions.php file, create a new files user-functions.php, upload to your theme folder and in your functions.php file add this to the top of the file (after the <? php )
include('user-functions.php');
To change a user's level (responsibility) use the add_role function, which will create a new custom user role so you can still use the default WP roles. Each User Level is defined here

empek got a reaction from itodd in Holding page?HAH! I was going to link to the exact same thing earlier, but wasn't sure that's what he meant. +1
There should be a couple of free ones floating around, but they might be called "coming soon pages". Try giving that term a google and see what you find.
