I've been a little frustrated. and I really need help see this site: www.electricscootersforadultssite.com. The words are all running together on the product descriptions. and I've just kind of hit a wall on what to do. People say I should edit the CSS, but it's so techy...I'm falling asleep reading the tutorials.

Can someone help me with the design of this page here? will a plugin or something do what I am looking to do?

    it's the home page that has the problem. I'm guessing you have copied and pasted the text from somewhere into the visual editor. Somehow it has picked up the coding for a table.

    Delete the text and paste it again into the html editor. This usually strips out the extra, unwanted, html coding.

    The other product pages are working ok.

    If you want to lose the "home" link in the page menubar, go to the theme options menu, then to the page menu and where it says "home link in page menu bar", just delete the word home.

    Also, I just noticed you have the right inner side bar turned on, but you're not using it, which is giving you a large gap between the text and the right sidebar.

    thanks. but i think the text might still run together because the wordpress format doesnt neatly put it into sections......should I design the home page all over again? any ideas?

      I'm a bit confused about you are trying to do. Can you explain a bit more?

      I'm thinking that maybe you ARE trying to use a table? If you use a two cell table, then the text should look as if it is in two columns.

      In which case you want to add this html in the html editor
      <table>
      <tbody>
      <tr>
      <td>your first column of text here</td>
      <td>your second column of text here</td>
      </tr>
      </tbody>
      </table>

          Yes, I think a table is the answer for you.

          Each time you add a <td> </td> you add a new column. The code I gave you is for a two column table.

          In Atahualpa's theme options there is a section for styling tables. If you find extra shading, borders etc that you don't want, head to that bit of the theme options.

    Being wordpress you shouldn't need to edit the css just the post page or perhaps try a different theme, that one is a little tricky if you are new to wordpress or not.

        I have a basic adaptation that you are welcome to import and acts as a starting point to give the site a more customised look.

        Your site will look similar to the attached thumbnail.

        You can download the settings file here (Works best if you RIGHT click and Save As)

    the easiest web design method for using tables is to use ms frontpage then copy the code and paste it to your destination page.
