I bought a template for my new WordPress blog and I'm having a few problems with the homepage.
On the slider I cannot get any images to appear on it, I have added images to the actuall post but still nothing. Is there anything I can do to fix that? Also, if you can see where it says all of the catagories when you scroll domain: domain, domain, domain. How do I make the image appear in the box?

I hope you get what I mean, +rep to whoever helps
 
You have get set a value in the custom fields section of the new post and add the image, it should tell you what value you have to add in the name and value box in the read me.

Sorry, I dont understand. Could you explain maybe step by step please.
 
Sorry for double post.

Last problem has been resolved. Could someone try and help me with something elese? on the hompage of the template you can see there are 8 boxes. the title of the latest topic repeats itself? why is this happening?
 
The error occurs because the second title is actually an alt tag for an image that isn't showing. You either need to remove it or fix the image issue.
 
I think that has something to do with my broken thumbnails. if I am correct should I edit the contentleft.php. and I think this is the Code for box.

<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=".get_theme_mod('box3cat')."&showposts=1"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
<h1><a href="<?php echo get_category_link(get_theme_mod('box3cat')); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php echo cat_id_to_name(get_theme_mod('box3cat')); ?></a></h1>
<div class="postboxcontent">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_title(); ?>

What should I edit out/ in on there?
 
The images should be your index document. Not your title document. I know, it's wierd..
 
<!--end: logo-->
</a>

<div class="ad468x60"><a href="IMAGE LINK"><img src="IMAGE URL" /></a></div>
<!--end: ad468x60-->
</div>
<!--end: headerwrapper-->
</div>

That should be in your index. Find it near the top.
 
I found that in the header.php

What do I edit?

<!--end: logo-->
<?php include('ads/header468x60.php'); ?>
</div>
<!--end: headerwrapper-->
</div>
<!--end: header-->
<div id="menu">
<div id="menuwrapper">
<div class="left">
<ul>
<?php wp_list_categories('title_li=&orderby=id'); ?>
 
Ah alright hmm. Let's see here.
Assuming you want to link the banner some where, after:
<?php include('ads/header468x60.php'); ?>
Add: <a href="IMAGE LINK"><img src="IMAGE URL" /></a>

So it should be like this:

<?php include('ads/header468x60.php'); ?>
<a href="IMAGE LINK"><img src="IMAGE URL" /></a>

Make sure you keep the rest of what's already in the doc.
 
I'm confused. All i'm tryin to do is get rid of the repeated title.

Yeah, he's right, you did the image source wrong. :/ should be http://zavle.com/wp-content/themes/Gadgets/images/image-pending.gif&h=80&w=100&zc=1 not http://zavle.com/wp-content/themes/Gadgets/includes/timthumb.php?src=http://zavle.com/wp-content/themes/Gadgets/images/image-pending.gif&h=80&w=100&zc=1
 
Go through your posts and take the link and edit the image in teh Edit Post page
Delete the picture and click the insert picture and use teh above link as your image link in the from url tabg. 🙂
