It's been three weeks with no response. I'm closing this for now.

I'm still not clear on the problem, so the screenshot will help!

If it's a problem with just your computer, unfortunately there is not much we can do, since we can't replicate it. You might try deactivating any browser plugins -- check out your browser's support documents for how to do this (Google "Disable Firefox browser plugins", for example)

You might also try these browser troubleshooting tips.

Thanks for responding. I am looking at screenshot and will work on that issue to send out. However, I use FireFox and have Vista 7. It seems plug-in and Adobe might be my culprits. The problem currently is that I edit my blog in WordPress and when I Preview the Text structure, the Preview prints approximately half of the way it should appear when published, then it loses it's continuous published look and the text and images are there but just green Theme Becarry. It is a problem with my computer because on another computer this doesn't happen. So I have been told that Chrome and plug-ins might be the format problems I am encountering. I have never used Chrome. So whadyathink?

Panaghioti, Glory be to God, thanks for insisting. I HAD read your explanation, but did not understand then that by adding all these, they would appear as the way I had already configured; for instance, if I add the widget Categories, that all my categories would be there. I thought it would be like restarting from scratch, but I tried with one, and it did work!
As you mention in your post that beginners are taken aback, yes I sure was, maybe it might be good to specify that the widgets they will add will show as the way they had populated them, or whatever the technical word is.
So thanks a million, and I will now work on inserting my pictures.
God bless you.

Apparently you didn't read the post I linked to or thesacredpath's explanations.

Just ADD the widgets you want. ALL the widgets you want (Flickr + Links + Recent Posts + Archives + Blog Subscriptions + Blog Stats).

no I HAVE tried to add them. but as I keep saying, each time I add one, all the rest of my sidebar disappears. why is that?? so I delete it to get back to my original sidebar with all its categories, that I definitely wan to keep. is there someone out there able to teach a dummy??

If you have not yet added any widgets to the sidebar, what you are seeing is simply a sample display of widgets created by your theme. Once you add a widget, that sample set will go away. All you have to do is add the widgets you want into the sidebar and arrange them as you desire.

Guys, I still can't work it out: I did try the flickr widget, it did add pictures in the sidebar, BUT it deletes ALL my current sidebar. What I want is ADD some pictures in the sidebar, AND keep all that's currently on my sidebar. again my blog is: http://wordsandpeace.wordpress.com/.
I've tried also with the text widget, all that I try always deletes my current sidebar.
so tell me is there a way to ADD pictures AND KEEP my current sidebar, if so HOW, or is it just impossible with that theme? if it's the case, would there be other themes which would support this?? Thanks

I must be really stupid. I still don't understand. I repaste my website URL here: http://wordsandpeace.wordpress.com/. As you see, I already have stuff in the sidebar, and I want to keep it. I just want to add a Section just above the Meta section, I would call it Currently Reading, and under that I want to paste a few pictures, one under the other, of covers of books I am currently reading. thanks for your patience guys with me

If you have not yet added anything to the sidebar what you are seeing is a theme generated sample set of widgets just so that you know what it looks like.

Just add in the widgets that you want in the sidebar, categories, links, etc.

The wordpress image widget does not seem to work on this Theme, when I put it, it deletes all that I have on my current sidebar, I wanted to ADD a picture AND keep the current categories I have now

Actually I should have looked. They have their images hosted on Flickr and are using the Flickr widget.

Just use the image widget, that is the easiest way.

You can have your authors/contributors put a byline at the beginning of their posts manually when they write them. In addition, you can use the authors widget which will list your authors in the sidebar, and people can click on their name in the sidebar to get a listing of all the posts that author has written.

Not by CSS, I shouldn't think. CSS only changes the appearance of your blog, not its functionality. If it's not coded to display the author, I don't think you can change that.

ghostlove — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 21:45:51 +0000

I have a group blog which is using the Thirteen theme. It's perfect for our blog and I really don't want to have to change it. However, I have noticed that Thirteen doesn't put the 'posted by so-and-so' information on posts. This is a bit annoying as eventually we are planning to have several more authors/contributors.

Is there a way I can change the theme so this happens like it does in other themes?

It goes in a text widget which you place at the top of your sidebar.

vivianpaige: i think you put the code in a text widget...

If I read devblog correctly, the CSS upgrade is not required. The question I have is where does that code go? In a text box?

I'd like to do this as well for the shocking blue-green theme. I have the CSS upgrade - just don't know how to get the tagline to show up.

Any help? Thanks!
