Mint Tree,
Hi. Sorry for the vast number of pleas for help. In this case, I have tried to change the font color of the right sidebar using the the sidebar option under "presentation." I changed the css font color value to #000000, so that the code looks as follows:
background:#FFF; color:#000; padding:5px; font:13px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; border:1px solid #000000;
However, when I view the site, the font color hasn't changed.
I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
Evan
PS: by the way, does the footer widget work with BWT?

Hi Evan, again it might be a cache issue. Just clear your cache and see if it takes on the color. Let me know how it goes =P.
For BWT V3.0x, if you drag in the widgets in the "Footer Widgets" they will show up. (For max result use at most 4 widgets ;).

I don't I have a cache, or at least I couldn't find it. I know that sounds ridiculous. But, in fact, there is no cache on the domain.
I was wondering if the the color settings for links in the "Other Setting" option in Presentation might not be causing the page titles in the Pages widget to be blue. I'm guessing that the settings in "other Setting" are overriding the settings in "Sidebars." Any advice on how we can change the font color in the sidebar?
Thanks,
Evan

Hi Evan, if the Sidebar Title is a link, the a:link color in "Other Setting" is the one applied.
If the Sidebar Title is a link, you can view the source code of the widget used to see what CSS class is being used and input in a custom CSS a:link color for that Sidebar Widget Title (in "Custom CSS" box: any CSS entered in the box will override existing style =).

Mint Tree,
I will look into this, but the Sidebar Title is not a link, it is the individual page titles that are linked to the page belonging to that title. Right now the font of the page titles is either blue or purple depending on whether or not the link has been activated.
The color of the hyperlinks is controlled from the "Other Setting" option in Presentation. Unfortunately, "Other Setting" controls the color of the links for the entire blog, so that if I change the color in "Other Setting," it changes the color of the links in the content of the pages and blogs posts.
However, I will try to follow your advice and see if I can override link color by using the custom css box.
Thank you again!
Best,
Evan

Mint Tree,
A couple things: First, I was finally able to change the color of the page titles in the right side bar by putting the following code in the Custom CSS Code box:
.Rsidebar a:link,.Rsidebar a:visited{color:black; text-decoration:none;}
This essentially turned the links black, which works for me.
Next, I needed to alter the color of the links appearing in the text of both pages and posts. To do that I wrote in "gray" in the link and visited boxes in "Other Setting." For some reason BWT does not seem to respond to hex code. When I wrote in the numerical equivalents, nothing changed.
I have one more question: I want my page an post titles to be centered instead of floating left. How do I do that? I have looked for the code but cannot find it. I would appreciate it very much if you would either tell where it is or simply give me the code to enter into the "Custom CSS Code" box in Other Setting.
Thank you again for all of your help,
Evan

Hi Evan, you need to go to "Presentation => Widgets" and drag-n-drop in the widgets into the appropriate Sidebar to display those widget, and then you can configure the CSS/styling in "Presentation => Sidebars".

Mint Tree,
Sorry, I wasn't clear. What I want to do is center the title of pages and posts in the main content area. If you look at the home page of http://www.proproductsourcing.com, you'll see that the title of the main page is floating left. I was trying to find the css code that will allow me center the title, but I couldn't find it.
Another question about widgets: for some reason, when I drag and drop widgets into the footer, they don't show up. Any idea what might be going on?
Thanks,
Evan

Hi Evan, if you want to center the Entry Title for the Post and Page, use this CSS in the “Entry Title CSS Style” box:
text-align:center;
Regarding the footer, you may not have the latest version 3.0.2 of the template. So, just open up the Footer.php file in the "include" folder and add the follow php code right after the first line </table> tag, which will produce the following:
</table>
<table id="footer-widgets-table"><tr class="footer-widgets">< ?php if(function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Footer Widgets')); else {echo ''; }?></tr></table>
*Note: there is the space in the "< ?php ...".

Hi, Mint Tree,
Thank you for clarifying the title problem. Wow, it was right under my nose, as it were. And you are right, my version of the template is 3.01. I'll add the code as you described.
Something else I need to mention, the custom HTML in the Menu option in Presentation appears to be causing database errors. I will research this a bit further and then do a separate pose in the “Bugs” part of the forum. Sorry to be such a problem. By the time the dust clears, I'll be an expert on your template.
EDIT: I just added the code to footer.php in the include folder. I'm afraid the widgets still aren't showing up.
Evan

Hi Evan, you may need to replace/delete the space in “<_?php …“ and may need to retype the quotation (' and “):
<table id=”footer-widgets-table”><tr
class=”footer-widgets”><_?php
if(function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') &&
dynamic_sidebar('Footer Widgets')); else {echo '';
}?></tr></table>
P.S. I'll update this in the new version. Also, you will need to drag-n-drop the widgets in the "Footer Widgets" in "Presentation => Widgets".

Mint Tree,
Thank you. Widgets are now appearing in the footer. Now, I'm off to the bugs and errors part of the forum to describe a possible bug in the template that may be causing database errors in wp 2.3.
Evan
