EMZYSMS:
Can anyone suggest anyway to remove sidebar from the mobile view or version of any WordPress theme? The sidebar is cool on system view but not attractive when it appears towards the footer on mobile. Any suggestions?
u can use media queries to accomplish it, jst hide d sidebar from mobile devices like dis:
@media screen and (max-width : 320px ){
#sidebar {
display: none;
}
}
Hope this helps.

Log into ur wp admin area and go to the widget area. Remove any widget u don't need by dragging it/them away from the sidebar!

That would fix it.

If u need additional help add me up on bbm 28393BBB or drop ur whatsapp no and I'll holla at u.

Check this site I did with wordpress.
Samoremphotography.com

No side bar wahala except on the pages I want it to show!
ur solution will remove sidebar (widgets) from d site entirely. wat d OP want is to remove sidebar when d site is viewed on mobile devices.

WebmastersIntroduction To Twitter Bootstrap 3 by maekhel(op): 8:03am On Nov 19, 2014
Bootstrap is the most popular and widely used HTML, CSS and JS framework for developing responsive mobile first web projects. It is developed by the team at Twitter and its open source. Twitter Bootstrap is developed base on the grid system. Using Bootstrap, you can save a lot of time and efforts. Bootstrap 3 which is the latest version has lot of features compared to the previous version (Bootstrap 2).
What’s New In Bootstrap 3
We are going to look at some of the changes made ion Bootstrap 3.
New Design And an Optional Theme: Bootstrap 3 has an entirely new sleek design and an optional theme which allows web developers to create more attractive websites by using theme template.
Mobile First and Always Responsive: Unlike the previous version which has a separate stylesheet responsible for responsiveness, Bootstrap 3 has a single stylesheet which contains normal styling and responsive styling. Bootstrap 3 is mobile first, meaning it was designed to start from handheld devices (phones, tablets) and scale up as the device screen size increases.
The Grid System: Bootstrap 3 introduces a new grid system, with four tiers of grid classes (phone, tablets, desktops and large desktops). This allows us to create flexible and awesome layouts for each of our target devices
Glyphicons Icon Fonts: Gylhicons are included as fonts in Bootstrap 3 unlike in previous version where they were images.

This is a brief Introduction to Bootstrap 3. In my next post, I will be showing you how to create a website with Bootstrap 3. In the meantime, you can head over to Bootstrap Official website, download Bootstrap 3 and their documentation.

WebmastersWhich To Use: Article Vs Section by maekhel(op): 8:31am On Nov 17, 2014
In my last post, I discussed Introduction to HTML5, where we looked at some of the new features of HTML5. Today, we will be looking at Which to Use: article vs section.
Using these new HTML5 elements can be confusing at times (I was confused to when I first started using them). But going by the semantic definitions of <article> and <section>, you will know the right to use.
<article>
Article can be considered a special form of section . It is intended to contain contents that are independent, that is, content that can stand alone outside of the surrounding content. Example of such content that could be contained within the <article> tag is blog posts. These self-contained contents are not limited to blog posts alone, they can also contain news articles, blog comments, videos etc.

WebmastersIntroduction To HTML5 by maekhel(op): 8:24am On Nov 14, 2014
HTML5 is the latest and current version of HTML, it has a lot of new features introduced, though it still a working project by the World Wide Consortium (W3C) but most major browsers are beginning to support its new features. One thing I like about HTML5 is it simply DOCTYPE declaration even with all its great features, unlike it predecessors.
<!DOCTYPE html>
As we can see from above, HTML5 has really simplified everything. It also have optimized ways of linking to CSS and JavaScript files:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<script src="script.js"></script>
There is no need to include type=”text/stylesheet” and type=”text/javascript” to <link> and <script> respectively anymore.
In this Introduction to HTML5, we will be looking at some of the new featured introduced in HTML5. We will be focusing on the new document structure elements introduced in HTML5.

WebmastersTable Vs Div For Layout by maekhel(op): 8:36am On Nov 12, 2014
The UI of a website have a great effect on a website and its users. The design of a website is depended on its layout (that is how the structuring will be). There are different type of layouts: one-column, two-column, three-column, fixed, fluid etc. The choice of varies from web designers to web designers depending on their needs. We will be discussing table vs div for layout.
Table For Layout
Tables can be used for creating website layout . It is easy to create layout with tables since tables present content in tabular form (rows and columns). The type of layout (two-column, three-column) you are designing will determine how many rows and columns your table will contain. For example, to create a two-column layout, we have something similar to the code snippet below:
<table>
<tr>
<td>Column One</td>
<td>Column Two</td>
</tr>
</table>
This will produce a two-column layout. We can remove the borders from the table to make the layout perfect by adding border=”0″ to <table>. With borders turned off, no one will know the layout was created using table unless they view source code.
One major advantage of using table for layout is it easy of use. You can create complex layout with table easily.

look for something like wrapper or container in ur css file and apply this style to it:
#wrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
}
If you can't find wrapper or container, paste sure link so I can look for you, it might be named something else.
ProgrammingPractical Use Of Session In PHP by maekhel(op): 8:48pm On Nov 06, 2014
In my last post I talked about <a href="http://
tutorialslodge.com/session-php">Session In PHP</
a>. Today I will be discussing Practical Use Of
Session In PHP. This is going to be a straight
forward tutorial, we are going store information in
session and use the information across multiple
pages. So let get started.
Open your favorite text editor (Notepad), paste the
code below in it and save as page1.php
[code lang="php"]
<?php
session_start(); //start session
$_SESSION['username'] = "mezie"; //store
information in the session variable
?>
[/code]
The code is quite straight forward. We starts the
session and assigned a string to a session variable.
Next, create another file and name it page2.php.
Paste the code below in it.
[code lang="php"]
<?php
session_start(); //start session
echo "My Username is ".$_SESSION['username']
; //display information in the session variable
?>
[/code]
When you run the code above in your browser, you
will see <strong>My Username is Mezie</strong>.
As you can see the string (mezie) has being made
available to page2.php with the help of session.
This is just one out of the numerous ways session
can be used. I hope this tutorial was helpful. Feel
free to drop your comment or questions in the

WebmastersSession In PHP by maekhel(op): 8:35pm On Nov 05, 2014
Today, we will be looking at session in PHP.
Session is a way to store information in variables to
be used a crossed multiple pages. Session can be
useful when you want to pass information across
multiple pages and you want the information stored
on the server. A simple session can be illustrated
when you open an application, makes some
changes then closes it. This process (opening,
changing and closing of the application) represent a
complete session.
Using Session In PHP
Before you can use session in PHP, you must first
start a session. This can be done using the
session_start(). This function must be called before
any HTML is sent to the browser. So it is advisable
to always start your session immediately after the
PHP opening tag.
