Hi -

Really apologize for the delay in getting back to you...thank you for your detailed response, it was a big help!  I didn't see the "Copy" blog before (somehow missed that),I will look at that in detail...

I added the "Contact" slug as you said...

Yes, I do AdRotator as the top widget in the sidebar and yes it's blank... honestly I can't figure out exactly where to paste in the HTML for the ads so I've since gone and disabled that plugin.  

I made the changes you specified to the bread crumb section of style.php....that did the trick!

Also made the entry-info changes...that didn't seem to change the category and author text color, but I figured out somewhere else in that file to change (I can't remember where right now - sorry) and fixed it..

And I agree -- I'll live with the slight visual bug in IE...  no big deal.  

Thanks again for a really nice template....  I have one feature request as well, but I'll post that in the appropriate forum.  ;)  Actually it's not really a feature request but a documentation request.  :)

Regards,

- Dave

Best WordPress Template said:

Hi Dave, please follow the steps below for the best results :D

1. First of all, please check your email for the link to download the latest updated package =).

2. Please visit the copy blog to copy the setting of the template and plugins package at http://bestwordpresstemplate.com/copy/

*Notice: your "Contact Dave" page should have the slug "contact" or "contacts", which is discussed on the Copy Blog.

3. Regarding, the extra pixel on the sidebar, you have a BLANK "Adrotator" widget on the right sidebar, so either remove the blank widget or put some HTML banner ads in there to rotate for the space to ‘not’ be there.

4. I don’t understand what you mean by "any way I can modify the column
widths of the "page" template to match that of the "post" template?".
By default, if you go to "Presentation => Sidebars" and change
the ‘Left Sidebar Width’ or ‘Right Sidebar Width’, it will change
throughout the blog/site — unless you used the special ‘Sales Page’
Wordpress Page Template.

5. To change the Bread Crumb "link" color, you will need to open up the respective style sheet that your blog is using, which by default should be "style.php". Then, scroll down to where it said

### BREAD-CRUMB ###

Find this line of code just under the above css comment:

.bread-crumb a:link, .bread-crumb a:visited {color:< ?php mint_menuValue(’menuItemColor’); ?> ;}

Change this line to this:

.bread-crumb a:link, .bread-crumb a:visited {color:< ?php mint_entryValue(’entryTitleColor’); ?>;}

*Note: there’s a blank space between the < ?php. 

6. To change the background and text color of the ‘Entry-Info’ for notes of author, date and category, you need to change the following CSS code to what you like:

.entry-info{

border-bottom:1px solid #CCC;
border-top:none;
padding:0 7px;
font:12px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color:#888;
background:#efefef;
text-align:right;
}

7. Regarding the I.E., that’s a ’small’ bug in the Idiotic I.E. Currently, I haven’t found an "I.E. hack" for the solution. There is a way to ‘fix’ this, but because for Search Engine Optimization, I want the main content to be always presented first (before the sidebars and comments), I can deal with the ’small’ space rendering of I.E. *Note: if you have the 2 Image Adsense on the sidebar, which is wrapped in the class="Lsidebar" and "Rsidebar", the space should be very small in I.E.

 

Anyway, I hope I had answered all your question.

Thank you.
