I'm working on converting a static html site to a blog. I found a theme/template that works well. I've been working in it yesterday and today and feeling great about it...until I asked a buddy of mine for some input. He viewed it in IE6, and noticed some layout problems. It works in IE7 and Firefox... Is there any chance someone could take a look and point me in the right direction to tweak the template so it will work with IE6? The problems that I've noticed: * The 'date' of the post is pushed over and laying on top of the post title. * It's three columns. The info in the right column doesn't appear at the top...instead it appears below the content in the middle column. There are probably a few really quick steps to tweak this...any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! site: http://www.makewowgold.com/wordpress
For some reason it wouldn't let me edit the thread.... I've moved the blog to the root: http://www.makewowgold.com to replace my old site. I figured out the template stuff, after playing with the style sheets, etc. Took a while, but I got it.
Well done I ended up changing the template when I had problems! For more info on free WordPress Themes check this article : Free WordPress Themes Site Reviews
yep its pretty easy once u know how for the IE design issues these may help http://www.webcredible.co.uk/user-friendly-resources/css/internet-explorer.shtml http://virtuelvis.com/archives/2004/02/css-ie-only
you can make a specific style for ie6. usually i make two different styles. one is style.css and another one is ie6.css (for ie6 only). ie6 use different way when it comes to layout the website. that is why the website breaks in ie6 and not in other browsers. -cypher.
That's what many Theme designers do. When you take a look at the files of a wordpress theme usually there are two stylesheets named style.css and styleie.css.
