    I can’t answer for Christine, but what I typically do is use Chrome’s developer window (like Firebug for Firefox) to find something unique for that element on a page and then do a multi-file search for that string in the source code for Symbiostock.

    I use Text Wrangler (Mac) but there are many other text editors that handle a multi-file search.

    You should have a link up top of your Wp admin page, with a yellow background, where the required plugins are listed and you can go ahead and install them with just a click

    The one I have installed (I just clicked the link the theme install provided) is wp-category-meta

    Not sure if I’ll leave it this way, but I’ve modified header.php so that it drops the search control in the menu bar only on the front page. Other pages keep it.

    There are two areas in this section that I modified to add a check that it isn’t the front page – see the jas begin and jas end comments for the two modified pieces

    Edited Nov 14 to correct the test for the front page. It was excluding too much code resulting in no login button on the home page.

    I don’t use the Twitter connection built in to Symbiostock, so I can’t help with that, but it’s a tweet, not a twit (although many of those tweeting are twits 🙂 )

    Why not just tweet what you want from your own account and then you get exactly what you want? You can link back to images (use bitly or one of the URL shortening tools) or anything else on your site.

    I found the two containers that have a gradient background and added them to my list that get transparent background color and no background image. The two culprits were a.carousel-control.left, a.carousel-control.right,

    /* No border and transparent background */
    .clearfix, .img-polaroid, .network_results_container, .carousel-inner, a.carousel-control.left, a.carousel-control.right, .panel-title, .panel-title a {
    box-shadow: none;
    border: 0;
    background-color: transparent;
    background-image: none;
    }

    I get asked one question once in a while, but I don’t think I’ve ever been asked for multiples? Why would different (real) users be treated differently (given that we’re none of us new or spambots).

    I just went to try this (I wasn’t sure what you meant though).

    What I see is that if I click on the first or last image in the carousel of network search results, nothing happens. Clicking on the other links (in the “middle”) works as expected.

    I don’t open up anything or go anywhere or even refresh the current page if I click on the leftmost or rightmost thumbnail.

    There also is a lot of weirdness with the display of the magnifier with a plus in it on the first and last items – I assume because of the hover also showing the left and right arrows as well. The image preview does work if you can hover just right and get the magnifier to display.

    I don’t know if this used to work in the past – don’t remember testing it before.

    I need to figure out where to get rid of that gradient too – more visual clutter 🙂

    It’s actually not inactive, but partially covered up by a modal dialog (that’s hidden)!

    If you click over on the right side of the search box (versus the left where you’d expect people to click) it works just fine.

    I don’t know where this code comes from – have you got some sort of plugin perhaps? – but here’s the offending code on that page.

    I’m no longer using 2.6.5 and CleanTheme, so I can’t check this out, but perhaps this’ll help you track down the culprit.

    Nate – did you miss my fix? You were posting code right after I posted the fix.

    As far as the borders, you would need to modify CSS to remove them (and I included a link to my CSS changes a few posts back, but mine apply to Dragonfly so wouldn’t be identical)

    I tried it in my own home page and could see the extra line – it’s the text editor being “clever”. I think the fastest way to make it right if you do add the code to the text editor is to make the search box move back up a line. I used 1.4em as the amount (one em is the current point size and the line height is typically larger than that, but I don’t think css units include lines):

    http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_units.asp

    <input class="form-control field" type="text" placeholder="Enter search text…" value="" name="s" style="margin-top:-1.4em; -moz-outline-radius: 15px; outline: 0px none; outline-offset: 5px;”>

    When you pasted it in, were you using the Visual or the Text tab in the editor on your home page? I’m assuming it was visual, and if you go look in the text tab you may see some additional stuff – I hope including the

    If you’re editing HTML, do it in the Text tab so the editor doesn’t try to format it for you

    Jo Ann,

    Thank you so much for taking a personalized look at my code! I looked at the code and can’t find a line break (
    ) anywhere on the homepage or on my style.css sheet.

    Am I looking in the wrong place?

    Thanks,
    Nate

    Short answer is that I don’t know – I searched the code for
    and don’t see anything obvious adding it directly (doesn’t mean it isn’t code adding it in though). My site doesn’t add these and I’m running 2.9.4 and Dragonfly

    Are you still running 2.6.5? (I did check that code too and didn’t see anything materially different there)

    If you put this into a text widget, do you have automatically make paragraphs checked? If so, turn it off 🙂

    If none of the above explain it, can you be specific about where you inserted the code in your site?
