WordPress Trouble

2 Views

I’m new to WordPress and I’m editing a site for a friend. I’m trying to add a RSS feed to the site so I edited the header.php file (that’s where it’s going).

I also edited the CSS and then I uploaded it with FileZilla. I refreshed the page and it looks no different.

Here’s the HTML: (LinkedIn was there before and it works fine) 

<a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/millermusicllc" target="_blank">
    <div id="linked_in"></div>
</a>

<a href="http://www.millermusiclessons.com/home-page/feed/" target="_blank">
    <div id="rss"></div>
</a>

Here’s the CSS: (Twitter was there before and it works fine) 

#twitter{background:url("images/u_tube.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;float:right;height:35px;width:35px;margin:21px 10px 0 0;}
#rss{background:url("images/feed.gif") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;float:right;height:35px;width:35px;margin:21px 10px 0 0;}

When I go to the page though and view the source, my HTML isn’t there. I have no idea why. Any advice?

The URL is http://www.millermusiclessons.com/

Thanks

  1. The #twitter ID does not seem to be implemented? I would recommend putting the image directly into the code by doing

    <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/millermusicllc" target="_blank">
<div id="linked_in"><img src="images/u_tube.png" /></div>
</a>

<a href="http://www.millermusiclessons.com/home-page/feed/" target="_blank">
    <div id="rss"><div id="linked_in"><img src="images/feed.gif" /></div>
</a>

    You would also need to change the css styling to take out the background-image section. WordPress has an inbuilt editor that I recommend you use. I guarantees that the file really did update and that it was the right file. Also make sure the images are in the right place. For example, if your css files are in a folder called css for example css/style.css, your image path would have to be relative so the section

    #twitter{background:url("../images/u_tube.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;float:right;height:35px;width:35px;margin:21px 10px 0 0;}
#rss{background:url("../images/feed.gif") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;float:right;height:35px;width:35px;margin:21px 10px 0 0;}

    Would need a ../ in front to say the parent directory. Let me know if you need a better explanation of this.
