Sidebar DIV appearing after blog post - php

I've looked this up and have found numerous similar issues - tried troubleshooting but couldn't work it out, I can't for the life of me figure out why the div is dropping below the blog post, pushing everything out. The sidebar should sit next to the blog post, i.e. 3/4 post, 1/4 sidebar. Instead the sidebar is pushed below the post. This happens to all posts regardless of images/text etc.... so it's not an image or text issue from what I gather.

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

First, set box-sizing: border-box
Next, make #content and #sidebar equal to 100% width. Right now you have #content set at 100% and #sidebar set in pixels so, naturally, it will push your sidebar down.
Try something like:
* { box-sizing: border-box; }
#content {
width: 65%;
}
#sidebar {
width: 35%;
}

Your article area is 100% wide. So there is no space for sidebar. Try to adjust width and margins to make total 100. Something like following code.
#content {
width: 70%;
float: left;
margin-left: 3%;
}
#sidebar {
width: 22%;
float: right;
margin-right: 3%;
}
Your image at Blog page does not adjust with browser width. See it in smaller screen size. To make it adjustable and remove horizontal scrollbar at smaller resolutions, use following CSS code.
#content .alignleft,
#content img.alignleft {
max-width: 100%;
}

It looked like you may have been working on it while I had a look at it. At the time I was able to change width: 100%; to width: 720px; in your #content id and it seemed to work in getting the sidebar vertically aligned to top, side by side with your content area.
I also noticed you had multiple ids of the same name, #content in particular. Might want to clean up the css so you can look at it more clearly if you have any more problems. Happens to me all the time when I'm chasing a problem, my css gets out of control and I lose track of the changes I made to try and correct the problems.

gallery before post - wordpress ACF

I am working on wordpress ACF, with posts and a single gallery of images. Both display perfectly.
But I am trying to load my ACF's image gallery AFTER the posts... I try many different ways, playing around with 'endif' / 'endwhile' nothing works.
Any idea of how to change the order ?
Thanks !
#gallerie {
width: 100%; z-index: 990; position: relative; margin-top: 700px;
}
div.image-home {
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 40px;
}
.post{width: 30%; float: left;}
That's it for the important css
(the menu on top is fixed)
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<!-- beginning of the gallery -->
<div id="gallerie">
<?php ;?>
<?php $images = get_field('image_gallery');?>
<?php if( $images ): ?>
<div class="image-home">
<?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
<img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['medium']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
</a>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<!-- end of the gallery -->
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><br>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<div class="contenu">
<p><?php the_field('description'); ?></p>
<p class="postmetadata"><?php the_time('j F Y') ?> par <?php the_author() ?></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
It appears you've posted the gallery prior to where the post loop exists entirely (ie, not even at the start of the loop, but before it.)
If you take that same gallery snippet and place it right AFTER the final endwhile, you'll get more of an acceptable result.
edit: It's really hard to comment without knowing or seeing more of the desired result, ie that same snippet could be posted right BEFORE the final endwhile if it is repeated for each post.
CSS
only changed one line:
#gallerie {
width: 100%; z-index: 990; position: relative; margin-top: 20px;
}
PHP
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><br>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<div class="contenu">
<p><?php the_field('description'); ?></p>
<p class="postmetadata"><?php the_time('j F Y') ?> par <?php the_author() ?></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<!-- beginning of the gallery -->
<div id="gallerie">
<?php ;?>
<?php $images = get_field('image_gallery');?>
<?php if( $images ): ?>
<div class="image-home">
<?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
<img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['medium']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
</a>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<!-- end of the gallery -->

Wordpress posts not displaying through dedicated url

A bit of an odd one. My news posts are not displaying through their unique URL.
Example:
- through the site you can see the news section and click through:
http://disciplesldn.com/
As a stand alone post, content disappears:
http://disciplesldn.com/2014/12/win-tickets-to-see-us-play-in-liverpool-on-boxing-day/
The theme is a custom build, using wordpress plugin 'types' for posting as single.php template file.
single.php code example:
<?php get_header(); the_post(); ?>
<section id="singlepost">
<div class="loadwrapper">
<div class="titleheaderpost">
<h1 class="singletitle"><? the_title(); ?></h1>
<p class="back">< back to News</p>
</div><!-- end of .titleheader -->
<div class="thenewscontent" id="thecontent">
<? the_content(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</section><!-- end of #singlepost -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>
In your css on line 757 you have positioning styled on the 'singlepost' id. you need to remove the left & top rules and the post displays correctly.
eg:
#singlepost {
position: relative;
/* left: 1200px; */
/* top: -482px; */
max-width: 960px;
overflow: hidden;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
Try with this code.
<?php get_header();?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<section id="singlepost">
<div class="loadwrapper">
<div class="titleheaderpost">
<h1 class="singletitle"><? the_title(); ?></h1>
<p class="back">< back to News </p>
</div><!-- end of .titleheader -->
<div class="thenewscontent" id="thecontent">
<? the_content(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</section><!-- end of #singlepost -->
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Display Wordpress Posts as gallery with title

for a project I am working on I have been trying to set up a wordpress post loop on a subpage which woould display all posts as a thumbnail image with the posts title underneath. However I do not get any posts listet but rather just one link referring to the subpage the gallery should be on. Could anyone help me out please?
Here is my code which is saved as page-gallery.php in my childthemes folder:
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="main" class="wrapper">
<?php global $query_string; if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="gallery_image_container">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<div class="gallery_image_thumb">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; else : ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
The CSS is the following:
.gallery_container {
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
border: 10px solid #CCC;
margin: 20px;
}
I have created a jsfiddle to tell you what I want to achieve in the end: http://jsfiddle.net/vdpktLxr/
Your code just echos the content of your page "page-gallery.php" . For displaying POSTS you need to use another loop, for example something like this:
<?php
// The Query
query_posts( $args );
// The Loop
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
echo '<li>';
the_title();
echo '</li>';
endwhile;
// Reset Query
wp_reset_query();
?>

How do I align two objects vertically that aren't in the same div

I have a wordpress page with a login widget <div id='widget-sidebar' class='widgets_on_page'> above the forum content. I would like to float it to the right and have the forum title to align vertically on the left, like this:
The problem I am having is that the forum title is generated dynamically and so I can't place them in the same div.
Any ideas?
Here is the source code:
<div id="primary">
<div id="content" role="main">
<div id='widget-sidebar' class='widgets_on_page'>
<ul><li id="wp_sidebarlogin-2" class="widget widget_wp_sidebarlogin"><h2 class="widgettitle">Welcome Admin</h2><div class="avatar_container"><img src="http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/user-avatar/user-avatar-pic.php?src=http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/avatars/1/1344255249-bpfull.jpg&w=38&id=1&random=1344255249" alt="" class=" avatar avatar-38 photo user-1-avatar" width="38" height="38" /></div><ul class="pagenav"><li class="page_item">Dashboard</li><li class="page_item">Profile</li><li class="page_item">Logout</li></ul></li></ul>
</div><!-- widgets_on_page -->
<article id="post-2901" class="post-2901 forum type-forum status-publish hentry">
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title">NA Forum</h1>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
Here is the part of my forum page template that I'm working with:
<div id="primary">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php widgets_on_template("widget-sidebar"); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php twentyeleven_content_nav( 'nav-above' ); ?>
<?php /* Start the Loop */ ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() ); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php twentyeleven_content_nav( 'nav-below' ); ?>
Using absolute positioning for the widget should work. Something like:
div#content {
position: relative;
}
div#widget-sidebar {
position: absolute;
top: 10px;
right: 10px;
}
If you don't care for IE7 you can align container vertically using display: table-cell;. As this is rendered as a table, it looses the ability to float. So you have to set a width explicitly on at least one of the elements.
CSS
div {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
div:first-child {
width: 80%;
}
HTML
<div>
first line<br>
second line<br>
last line
</div>
<div>
just one line<br>
</div>

image permalink PHP problem with Wordpress

the site is http://www.christopherwaller.com/wordpress/
if you take a look on the above site i'm trying to insert a link to a page on each of the images on a carousel, so if you click anywhere on the image it will navigate to a new page. I have created the link i want on the post title text (ie. Look 1, Look 2 etc . . .) by using
<h2 class="postitle"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
but i can't for the life of me find the right PHP to create the same links on each of the carousel photos?
I'm still trying to get to grips with PHP if anyone could advise that would be great.thanks
this is the PHP
<div class="edit"><?php edit_post_link(); ?></div>
</div>
<div class="postcontent">
<?php
$content = $post->post_content;
$searchimages = '~<img [^>]* />~';
preg_match_all( $searchimages, $content, $pics );
$iNumberOfPics = count($pics[0]);
if ( $iNumberOfPics > 0 ) { ?>
<?php the_thumb('medium'); ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="imgframe"></div>
<?php } ?>
<div class="post_content">
<h2 class="postitle"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages('<p class="pages"><strong>'.__('Pages:').'</strong> ', '</p>', 'number'); ?>

You could try using the following instead of "the_thumb();"
add the following to your theme's 'functions.php'
// Add post thumbnail theme support
add_theme_support('post-thumbnails');
Then use the following to replace the 'the_thumb();'
if ( has_post_thumbnail() )
the_post_thumbnail();
I actually use this myself and created a plugin that links the post thumbnail to the post. It seems like you're trying to do the same kind of thing so I hope this works for you.
I understand you are using the PostThumb revisited plugin, correct? And if I read correctly, this plugin outputs a single picture with the_excerpt() . If that is the case, couldn't you just do this? :
<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</a>
