Maybe your server is getting errors since it has problem reading the folder name. </p> http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/topic.php?id=511#post-1251 Tue, 03 Jan 2012 06:37:29 +0000 ulysses 1251@http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/ <p>I just saw your website. I haven't done a header like that at all. I assume that you can put three different images with different links inside the header div. You just have to assign different CSS classes on each image to control the location of each image. I think it's possible. </p> http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/topic.php?id=511#post-1248 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 03:35:12 +0000 CDaley_JW 1248@http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>First off, Black Letterhead is awesome.

If you are self-hosted, you can research the WordPress Codex how to add background widget in functions.php so you can use it with the theme. </p> http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/topic.php?id=274#post-943 Sat, 21 May 2011 02:51:13 +0000 ulysses 943@http://ulyssesonline.com/forum/ <p>The widgets should display for both posts and pages. The theme calls the sidebar on both occasion. </p>
