Hi everyone, I have just discovered Artisteer today and downloaded the trial version , made a quick template, uploaded to my current Wordpress site , switched themes and got it to show up ! Very cool...However, the arrangements of my blog posts and links in the side bars got all messed up.....in my original theme, I have 2 sidebars in which the left was for Adsense ads with a links section below that, and the right side bar was for my home page(static) entry and post entries. Anyway when i made the switch, it put my link entries at the top of both side bars and the list of post entries disappeared. Actually the post entries showed up under the archives section in the right side bar....I have built a few websites and am familiar with html but it stops there....I got into word press because I found it much faster for certain things. However my php and css is very weak.. I tried to see if I could re arrange things in my side bar section , but I can't figure much out yet.....I'm sure some eyes will roll when they read my newbie post, but I was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction on where to look up a solution to this......one last thing, I have been experimenting with word press for about a month now,trying to change headers, and trying to ad images (affiliate stuff) and i was attracted to this program because i think that this will help me alot, but i just have to figure out how to resolve the issue I'm getting right now....

Any help/tips/pointer would be greatly appreciated....

ps any good books on php coding out there?

thanks

I wasn't able to follow at all what you are trying to do, can you revert back to your original theme, create screen shots, then put the Artisteer theme on and take screen shots of that?

Are the AdSense ads in text widgets? Using a plug in? Custom code added to the original theme?
