SCREEN TIME, MY MAD CHAMBER OF HORRORS and OTHER DELIGHTS
OK. I've turned commenting back on. For now...
I've been enjoying Gniz's recent lambasting of Genpo Roshi and Big Mind® over on the Reblogging Brad Warner blog. It's good to see this stuff getting a public airing. But I've never felt the need to dig as deeply as Gniz has. The fact that Big Mind® is bullshit is overwhelmingly evident just by watching videos of it.
In any case, the fact that Gniz has chosen to write these pieces means that his blog is no longer really functioning as a place to comment on this one. So I suppose I'd better reinstate the comments section.
Those of you who assume I have done this because I saw a decrease in traffic to this site when I removed the comments are assuming I am a whole lot more together on stuff like that than I really am. The truth is I have no clue how many people look at this thing even though I have a subscription to a service that's supposed to tell me.
I'm going to try to look at the comments and even chime in on occasion. But I make no promises. The fact is, the Internet bores me to tears. I can't stand being on-line any longer than I absolutely have to. And because of my work I absolutely have to be on-line way longer every day than I can stand without adding any more "screen time" to my life.
I should explain "screen time." I stayed in Victoria, BC last week with a guy named Sei-in. Sei-in has three kids. The kids are given a specific allotment of what Sei-in calls "screen time" each week. They can spend this time watching TV or being on the Internet or playing video games or doing other things that involve looking at screens. I think he gives them about 5-6 hours per week (that's per week, kids, not per day). He says their behavior (or behaviour since they're Canadian) has improved markedly since he introduced this system. Time spent in front of screens seems to make the kids jumpier, more nervous, more angry, more prone to get in fights, etc. than time spent with friends or books or in doing real activities rather than virtual ones.
This is a lesson we should all pay attention to.
And it's another reason I don't believe in on-line sanghas.
So... while I will be monitoring the comments more than before, don't expect a whole lot. Even Gniz's site contained anonymous commenters making oblique references to my "mad chamber of horrors" where I perform "experiments labeled as Zen." What this chamber is and what those experiments are is anybody's guess. But what's not a matter of guessing is that weenies like whoever left that comment will have their say in the new comments section.
But so will intelligent people. And I hope those people will feel free to ignore the weirdos or knock them down when they pop up. I myself probably won't bother with that stuff except perhaps to make fun of it as I'm doing now.
ANYWAY, I'm celebrating Thanksgiving with my family in the suburbs of Dallas this week. Next week I'm off to St. Paul and Minneapolis for more speaking gigs. Details are at this link.
The regular zazen at Hill Street Center in Santa Monica is on this coming Saturday even though I will not be there. So go sit if you wanna sit.
Now leave your comments! But be sure not to exceed your allotted "screen time!" I know I will not exceed mine.

There is a relatively new trend with our elected officials to respond to letters, emails or phone calls only to those they consider their direct constituents.
I ran into this a few years ago when I tried to get in touch with U.S. Rep. John P. Murtha of Johnstown on an important issue. All my inquiries to that congressman, who has since died, were returned, unanswered or acknowledged, because, according to his office, I wasn't a constituent of his.
Regardless of who voted these people into office, once there they make decisions that affect all Americans. In many of their opinions, we citizens work for them instead of them working for us.
That is an extremely dangerous attitude for an elected official to have. It usurps the Constitution and can lead to dictatorship.
It seems this attitude has infected at least one of our local politicians. Commissioner Jim Eckstein finally returned a call made by a prominent Butler County businesswoman who had been trying to reach him concerning an office building that the county government was considering buying as an extension to the Government Center.
After numerous failed attempts to reach Eckstein, he finally returned her call.
But rather than discuss the issue in question, this "little Napoleon" attacked and insulted the woman, telling her that she wasn't a constituent of his and felt no need to answer her questions.
The woman in question lives in Butler County and pays taxes in Butler County, but in his mind she is not a constituent of his.
When found, these want-to-be tyrants should be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
Elected officials who feel they are not answerable to the public are the poster boys of what's wrong with all levels of government today.

It's not like I'm gonna go up there and be like "IAN! GIMME A HUG!"
Um, long time no post? Long story. In short, I was house hopping and staying with different friends and didn't have internet access. Basically, my week consisted of watching Korean soap operas, killing -2 people on Star Wars, playing tag in an empty movie theater, having a sleepover with a preschooler, constructing fabric trees, clinging to dear life when the Joker was being creepy, riding 30 year old bikes, being mistaken for a boy, and chasing 2nd graders for not smiling.
I attached a hacky sack Caroline (WHO IS HOME! YESS!!!) gave me to a gold chain. Intense. Thrift thrift DIY.
And how are you?

Just because you don't have a yard, doesn't mean you can't grow an entire landscape. In fact, being a little small-minded is just the ticket if you want to bring the outdoors in.
Enchanting Lilliputian-like landscapes in terrariums are the perfect solution. And the great thing is there's a terrarium for everyone. From simple to sophisticated, and all points in between, they're not difficult to plant or maintain.
Really, any glass container can be turned into a terrarium, but vases or old-fashioned bell jars are great vessels for imparting your own signature style.
What is important is that you carefully plan how to plant your terrarium. That's because a terrarium is a miniature ecosystem and it needs to be set up properly from the beginning. That means buying high-quality potting mix and selecting slow-growing plants that have similar light requirements and are appropriate for the size of your container. It's easier than you think. Here's how.
Properly wash and sterilize your container to avoid inadvertently introducing diseases to your healthy plants and potting soil. And since the main objective of a terrarium is to see the plants within, clean glass is obviously a good idea.
To ensure that the potting soil doesn't get soggy, prepare a onecentimetre base of gravel and cover it with a layer of potting soil. The gravel layer ensures that the soil never sits in water that may, at times, accumulate in the bottom of the terrarium. At least five cm of soil is required, but it can come up as high as half the height of the terrarium. Despite the common belief that charcoal will filter the soil and keep it clean, charcoal isn't necessary in a terrarium. In fact, activated charcoal quite rapidly becomes inactive with constant exposure to carbon in the air. Charcoal can, however, be a nice amendment to a terrarium because of its decorative properties.
Space plants according to the mature height and spread listed on their tags. Choosing slow-growing plants will also save you from constantly having to trim back foliage.
Because terrariums create a very humid micro-climate, you won't have to water very often. An initial thorough watering is important, but after that, don't expect to water more than a few times a month. When it is time to water, use a funnel. It will help distribute the water to the soil rather than letting it collect on the flowers and foliage (thus reducing potential problems with diseases).
Terrariums want the brightness from the sun but not its heat, so never place one directly in front of a window that isn't covered with sheer draperies. Leaving a covered terrarium in direct sunlight will "cook" your plants and turn them into the equivalent of steamed vegetables.
Although many plants are suitable for a terrarium, as I said, small, slow-growing varieties are best. Here are a few excellent choices for terrariums.
There are thousands of varieties of standard, miniature and trailing African violets, which all display a low-growing rosette habit and irresistibly fuzzy foliage. Of course, they also feature a great array of flower colours and leaf variations. The key to success with African violets, especially in a terrarium where the relative humidity is high, is to never over-water.
Table fern is a wonderful upright plant with a variety of foliage colours. It isn't a slow grower, so buy it small and give it regular haircuts to keep it from outgrowing its space. Fronds may be dark green or variegated and toothed.
Gardenias make great additions to terrariums. The green leaves of a healthy gardenia are as striking and lush as its flowers are beautiful. They work well in terrariums where it's fairly easy to keep the soil the way gardenias like it - consistently moist but not soggy. Use distilled water, rainwater or melted snow because the plants are extremely sensitive to chlorine and fluoride.
So, as outdoor gardening comes to an end for another season, why not try creating your own terrarium? What better way to remind ourselves that "the glass is always half full."

Gold traders are the most bearish in more than a year on mounting speculation that improving economic growth from the U.S. to China will curb demand for this year's worst-performing precious metal.
Twenty analysts surveyed by Bloomberg this week expect prices to fall next week, while 11 were bullish and three were neutral, making the proportion of bears the highest since Dec. 30, 2011. Hedge funds cut bets on higher prices by 56% since October and are approaching their least bullish stance on gold since August, government data show. The metal fell to a five-month low today, and billionaire investors George Soros and Louis Moore Bacon reported yesterday that they had reduced stakes in exchange-traded products backed by gold.
First-time jobless claims in the U.S. decreased more than estimated last week, while a Chinese government-backed survey showed manufacturing expanded in January. Growth will accelerate in the world's two largest economies in coming quarters, according to more than 100 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. Investors cut record bullion holdings in exchange-traded products this year and added to funds backed by other precious metals that are used more in industry.
"The global economic recovery is on track," said Andrey Kryuchenkov, a commodity strategist in London at VTB Capital, a unit of Russia's second-largest lender. "The persistently decent macro data is denying gold its usual safe-haven properties. You can get better returns elsewhere."
Gold prices that rallied the past 12 years will probably peak in 2013, or already have, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Credit Suisse Group AG.
Gold Price
The metal fell 4.4% to $1,602.90 an ounce in New York this year, and reached $1,596.70 today, the lowest since Aug. 15. Gold climbed 7.1% last year in the longest annual rally in at least nine decades. The Standard & Poor's GSCI gauge of 24 commodities is up 4.2% this year and the MSCI All-Country World Index of equities gained 4.7%. Treasuries lost 0.9%, a Bank of America Corp. index shows.
Gold's drop compares with a 1.2% loss for silver this year. Platinum and palladium rose at least 6.8% on concern mine supply will fall as demand increases. An ounce of platinum bought as much as 1.054 ounces of gold yesterday, the most in 17 months, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Industrial usage accounts for about 10% of bullion consumption, compared with more than half for the other three metals.

Most Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I learn about the basics of how Builder works?
Please start here: http://ithemes.com/builder-basics-training/
What are child themes? Should I use a child theme?
It is a good idea to use a child theme (of Builder) as your active theme and not Builder directly. This will protect any modifications and customizations you might have done from being erased when you upgrade Builder.
To learn how to do this, go to: Child Themes Introduction Child Themes Tutorial
Screenshots of the available child themes for Builder
Activated a child theme. How come my site does not look like the demo site?
To get a Builder site with a child theme active to look like the child theme's demo site, it has to be built by way of arranging layouts, modules, widgets and in some cases, editing style.css.
When a child theme is activated, the site will NOT look like the demo site out of the box.
When we create the demo sites, we make no adjustments to any .php or .css files within the theme. The only adjustments we make are within the WordPress dashboard. Like with all themes and child themes (both iThemes and other companies), every site need a little set up. For example, one will need to add some pages, write some posts, create menus, etc. In other words, every site need content. There is no way any theme can do all of these things for customers.
For Thinner child theme (as an example), if one writes some posts, sets a post thumbnail for seven or more of those posts, and selects the slider extension in his/her layout (My Theme > Layouts & Views) that points to his/her main blog, he/she will find a comparable layout as the Thinner home page.
As one can see, there is no way we can provide content for a customer. However, if one takes the time to set up WordPress and add default WordPress items, he/she will see that our child theme demos do represent what a child theme would look like when on a site with content.
If time permits, we will provide instructions on how to create a layout similar to the demo.
Example: This link has instructions on how a Builder site with Americana child theme can be made to look like its demo site.
Use a static page as front page
Q: I want to have a static page as front page (i.e., at www.mysite.com) and the blog posts to appear at another page, say www.mysite.com/blog. How do I do this?
- Go to Settings -> Permalinks and set the permalink structure to something like /%postname%/
- Create two empty pages (with no content in them) titled Home and Blog.
- Go to Settings -> Reading. Under Front page displays, select "A static page (select below)", choose Home for Front page and Blog for Posts page. Save changes.
Apply a layout to the Posts page
Q:I have created a layout for my Posts page. How do I apply this layout to the Posts page?
A: Go to My Theme -> Layouts and Views. Click on Views tab, then Add View and associate Blog view with the layout you have created for the Posts page.
All the pages are getting re-directed to front(home) page
- Ensure that the default layout has a content module. It is a common occurrence to construct site's home/front page layout with just widget bars, HTML modules etc. and leave it as default. The layout used for Pages, posts, archives, search, category pages etc. must have a content module or else, there will be no place for the content to show up in. Therefore, it is highly recommended that default layout has content module.
- If you using some sort of Redirection plugin, check its settings/deactivate it (for troubleshooting)
Is it possible to have a 100% full width modules in Builder?
It is possible to have 100% fluid modules using by editing theme's functions.php. Click here for details.
When using the above method, to specify 100% width to more than 1 module see this forum thread and this.
How do I display post excerpts as opposed to the full posts in my Posts page?
Edit your active theme's (should be a child theme of Builder) index.php.
For the Acute, Depot and Noise theme, edit content.php).
Replace a line similar to
<?php the_content( __( 'Read More→', 'it-l10n-Builder' ) ); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
Note: To do the same for other views like category pages, edit the appropriate template file - archive.php, in this case. See http://codex.wordpress.org/images/1/18/Template_Hierarchy.png
If you would like to control the number of characters to appear in excerpts and change the cut-off character from "..." to something else, you might want to use The Excerpt re-reloaded or Excerpts Deluxe or Advanced Excerpt.
Also see http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt
How do I display full posts as opposed to post excerpts in my Posts page?
Edit your active theme's index.php. (Note: for the Acute theme, edit content.php).
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php the_content('Read more...'); ?>
Follow http://ithemes.com/codex/page/BuilderChild-Default#How_to_place_nav_bar_to_the_right_of_logo
Method 1
Make a copy of footer.php from parent Builder directory, edit it and place in your child theme's (active theme) directory.
Video and detailed instructions
Examples of customized footer.php: 1
If you would like to have a footer.php that looks like the screenshot below as starting point to use as is or further customize, download this zip file, extract it and upload footer.php to your child theme directory.
This is the code in footer.php just in case the download link does not work:
<?php function render_footer() { ?>

<a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">Home | <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy | <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/terms-conditions/">Terms & Conditions

<?php echo date( 'Y' ); ?> - Copyright © All Rights Reserved

  <?php wp_footer(); ?> <?php } add_action( 'builder_layout_engine_render_footer', 'render_footer' ); ?>
In the above replace & with & a m p ; without spaces and © with & c o p y ; without the spaces.
Add the following at the end of child theme's style.css:
.alignmiddle { text-align: center; }
Method 2
To remove the credit to iThemes Builder (but leave the standard copyright notice, powered by WordPress etc.) you could also include this function in your child theme's functions.php:
add_filter( 'builder_footer_credit', 'custom_builder_footer_credit' ); function custom_builder_footer_credit( $footer_credit ) { $footer_credit = 'Powered by WordPress
Customized by Myself!'; return $footer_credit; }
Ensure that line numbers are not present in the code in functions.php.

How to backup and restore a WordPress site that uses Builder
The standard method of backing up database, editing the resulting .sql file to do a find and replace of source and destination URLs, importing the modified .sql to the new server and then uploading the files will not work in case of Builder sites.
The reason for this is that simple find and replace can not handle serialized data. A solution that handles serialized data must be used. We have tested WP Migrate DB successfully to manually copy a Builder site with no loss of data (layouts incl their IDs, Style Manager Styles, widgets etc.) from one location to another.
Automated (simpler and faster)
BackupBuddy is the only solution that lets you completely backup and restore a Builder site. For a discussion on the reason behind this, see post #8 at this forum thread.
How to add a custom favicon
- go to using wp-dashboard > My Theme > Settings, click Favicon and select an icon, or upload your own
- alternatively (but not recommended) you can upload favicon.ico file to your child theme's images directory. Ex.: wp-content/themes/BuilderChild-Foundation/images
Tip: There are services like this and this which lets you upload a regular image (jpg, png, gif etc.) and convert them to a .ico file.
How to upgrade Builder?
How to fix "Fatal Error: Class 'ITStorage2' not found"
This happens because of upgrading Builder without first updating the associated plugins like Style Manager and SEO plugin.
This could have been avoided by following the instructions we provided on how to upgrade Builder here.
To fix the issue,
- Connect to your web server using either the file manager in cPanel of your hosting account or a FTP client.
- Download the latest versions of Style Manager (if you are using this plugin) and Builder SEO plugin (if you are using this plugin) zip files from your Member Panel.
- Extract the contents of these plugins (whichever is being used i.e., present at wp-content/plugins) and upload them to the corresponding directories in wp-content/plugins overwriting the existing ones.
How to upgrade Builder when a child theme isn't being used?
It is always good to use a child theme of Builder as the active theme and not Builder directly. This will avoid custom changes to the theme files from being overwritten by the upgrade.
If you were not aware of this and have been directly using Builder as the active theme and would like to now upgrade to the latest version, follow this approach:
- Take a full backup of your site using BackupBuddy. If purchasing BackupBuddy is not an option, take a backup of wp-content/themes/Builder directory and WordPress database (using phpMyAdmin or otherwise) at the least.
- Make a note of all file changes (modifications and new additions) inside Builder directory. Usually modifications will be done to templates like index.php, single.php, archive.php and style.css.
- Upload the latest default child theme to wp-content/themes. It can be downloaded from member panel.
- Apply all changes that were noted in step 2 in wp-content/themes/BuilderChild-Default
- Upgrade Builder to the latest version by following the steps in http://ithemes.com/codex/page/Builder_Documentation#How_to_upgrade_Builder
- Activate the child theme.
- Check your site and fix anything that is amiss. If there are any links whose URLs point to files inside Builder directory, they may have to be changed to point to the child theme directory.
Method 1
Pre-requisite: WordPress 3+, Builder 2.4.10+
Rather than using the navigation module, add an HTML module where you want the navigation to appear
- add the following content to the textbox (assuming your menu is called "menu1", change of course if needed):

 <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'menu' => 'menu1', 'menu_class' => 'builder-module-navigation') ); ?>
 <?php get_search_form(); ?>

- save the html module, select no sidebars, and enable PHP,
- save the Builder layout
- add the following code to your stylesheet:
#nav_container { height: 34px; display: block; width: 100%; background: #FFFFFF url('images/nav_bg.png') repeat top left; } .search_in_nav { float: right; display: block; width: 250px; height: 24px; padding: 0px 5px; margin: 0px; }
- play around a bit with the margins and paddings, heights and widths.
Note: This method can also be applied to place a image or RSS feed or any HTML in the nav bar.
Additional Resource 1, Additional Resource 2
Method 2
When Builder is being installed, if the following appears
Installing Theme from uploaded file: Builder.zip
Unpacking the package…
Incompatible Archive. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
it means that the zip file is corrupt. Try re-downloading it using another browser.
From our observation, this is happening only on Macs. So if you have a spare Windows computer, try downloading Builder again from PC.
How to assign a layout to all posts belonging to a specific category
No view exists which can be used for all single post pages belonging to a particular category.
There are design questions that need to be addressed before implementing such a view. What will happen if a post belongs to multiple categories? In such case suppose the user sets a view associating all posts from Category A and another one for all posts from Category B, and if a post belongs to both the categories there will be conflicting views which leads to the question: which layout should be applied for that post's single page?
The only way currently is to edit each post and set the layout manually.
Forum topic on this: http://ithemes.com/forum/topic/17616-layout-for-single-post-page-of-only-one-post-category/
Update: There now is a fairly straightforward solution for this
Chris has come up with a code snippet that needs to be placed in child theme's
functions.php which allows you to specify a specific layout using specific conditions.
function custom_filter_category_layouts( $layout_id ) { if ( is_single() && in_category( 'news' ) ) return '4e5f997043d8e'; return $layout_id; } add_filter( 'builder_filter_current_layout', 'custom_filter_category_layouts' );
The builder_filter_current_layout filter runs after the Layout selection process has finished and allows custom code to have the final say on what Layout is used. The example code will force the current Layout to be the one with an ID of "4e5f997043d8e" if the site is currently showing an individual post that is in the "news" category. If this condition isn't met, it returns the current Layout ID so that it doesn't change any of the other portions of the site. This can be modified to use any category and any Layout ID.
To find the ID for a Layout, go to the Layouts listing, copy the edit link for the desired Layout, paste the link somewhere, and grab the text after the last equal sign. For example, consider the following link:
The Layout's ID is 4e5f997043849.
To use the code, simply add it to your child theme's functions.php file."

Oh yes! Even before the WordPress 3.0 menu system's final version got released. Then what about this message "Your theme supports 0 menus. Select which menu appears in each location."?, you may be asking. Well, just ignore it. Go ahead and create your menu at Appearance -> Menus, then edit your layout and in the navigation module's settings, select "Custom Menu - name".

How to use a custom font in Builder?
See this forum post for an example.
How to use a Google font?
Google fonts provides a lot of fonts that can be used in your projects. These fonts are hosted by Google, so you do not have to download or install these fonts.
Select the font you wish to use
Navigate to the Google fonts page, for this example, we assume that you wish to use the "exo 2" font. Click the "Quick-Use" icon as indicated by the red arrow:
Select the variants you wish to use, and in the box (at pt. 3), the stylesheet embed code will adapt accordingly.
As you can see, the stylesheet url links to the Google API's location. We can now embed the stylesheet in our site. Take note of the URL of the stylesheet, as that is ALL we will need. We DO NOT need the entire link as can be seen in the screenshot, ONLY the actual URL (in the red box).
Use Google Font in a WordPress site
To embed a font in WordPress, the easiest way is to register and enqueue the stylesheet via a function. That way, no changes to your existing stylesheets is required.
In you child theme's
functions.php, add the following code.
function register_my_fonts() { // load the Google font wp_register_style('googleFonts-Exo-2', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Exo+2:400,500italic'); wp_enqueue_style( 'googleFonts-Exo-2'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_my_fonts');
This will load the font, so it can be used in your theme's stylesheet. Note that the name of the style (here, googleFonts-Exo-2) is arbitrary, you can use any name. Just make sure that you register and enqueue using the same name.
Now when you save
functions.php, refresh your site, you can see that the stylesheet is loaded, by checking the source code of your site:
Use Google Font in your stylesheet
You can now use the font, see pt. 4 in the Google fonts instructions, e.g. to use it site-wide,
body { font-family: 'Exo 2', Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; }
or you can use it on specific elements.
How to use an iconfont?
Iconfonts are becoming increasingly popular, in particular for small icons, such as social media icons, or for navigational elements (arrows, buttons) etc. There are dozens of providers for icon fonts, we will focus on Fontello and Icomoon.
Navigate to the Fontello site, and create the set of icons that you wish to use in your project. For assistance on how to use the fontello website, please refer to the help section on the website. For the sake of this example, we used the name "my-project" for the icon set that will be generated.
Download the Fontello pack
Once you have selected the icons you wish to use, you can download a zip file containing all the necessary code. Download the zipfile and unzip the folder in your child theme folder. Your child theme folder structure should now look like this:
Use Fontello in a WordPress site
The easiest way to enable this font in your WordPress site is to register and enqueue the stylesheet via a function. That way, no changes to your existing stylesheets is required. So by loading the fontello stylesheet, there is not need to add any other additional code.
In your child theme's
functions.php, add the following code.
function register_my_fonts() { wp_register_style('fontello', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/fontello-0baf900d/css/my-project.css' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'fontello'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_my_fonts');
This will load the font files, so it can be used in your project.
Note 1: the name of the style (here,
fontello) is arbitrary, you can use any name. Just make sure that you register and enqueue using the same name.
Note 2: if you have already added a similar function named "
register_my_fonts" (.e.g. for loading another font, or icon font), you can not use the same name. Rather, add the register and enqueue code to that existing function. So to use both a Google font (see previous paragraph) and the Fontello icon pack, add code such as:
function register_my_fonts() { // load my Google font wp_register_style('googleFonts-Exo-2', 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Exo+2:400,500italic'); wp_enqueue_style( 'googleFonts-Exo-2'); // load my Icon font wp_register_style('fontello', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/fontello-0baf900d/css/my-projectcss' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'fontello'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_my_fonts');
Use Fontello Icons your site
For further instructions on how to use the font and make the icons appear, please consult the documentation provided by Fontello.
Refer to the previous instructions for Fontello. When your Icomoon zip file is downloaded and unzipped in your child theme folder, your child theme folder should look like this:
Register and Enqueue Icomoon stylesheet
function register_my_fonts() { wp_register_style('icomoon', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/icomoon/style.css' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'icomoon'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_my_fonts');
Builder and BuddyPress
Builder's child theme Yukon has built-in support for BuddyPress. It is designed specifically to work with BuddyPress, and does not require the template pack.
To install BuddyPress while using Builder Yukon as a child theme, follow these steps:
- Install WordPress
- Upload the BuddyPress plugin (from WP repository)
- Activate and follow the BuddyPress installation five-step walkthrough (during step #4 choose to use the included BuddyPress theme, and then finish the installation)
- Upload Builder Theme (Core)
- Upload the Builder child Yukon theme and activate. With Builder and BuddyPress now setup, begin customization.
For all other Builder child themes, BuddyPress need to be installed like it will be installed for any other WordPress theme. Those will require the BuddyPress template pack plugin. On using the template pack: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/

How do I disable comments on all Pages?
Use the no comments on pages plugin
I want to get rid of the text "Comments are closed" at the bottom of the content
Add the following to your theme's style.css:
.nocomments { display: none; }
Uploaded images do not appear
1. Ensure that the image is saved in the right format (extension). For example, if a png file is incorrectly saved as .jpg, then it won't work. Two ways of checking this is opening the image in a) Photoshop b) Irfanview.
2. WordPress 3.5 has taken away the option to manually change the path through WordPress settings, but one can follow these instructions, and set it to
define( 'UPLOADS', 'wp-content/'.'uploads' );
In your WP dashboard go to Settings -> Media. Tick the option to organize uploads in year and month based folders.
3. Check to see if GD image library support is enabled in your hosting. This can be checked by saving the following as a php file, say phpinfo.php and accessing it from the URL like yoursite.com/phpinfo.php.
<?php phpinfo();?>
Tip: While uploading an image in image module if you want a fully wide image (i.e., no sidebar) ensure that image width is the same as that of layout. Also specify the exact image height in the module's settings. This will avoid the image from getting stretched disproportionately.
- Deactivate all your plugins and try.

What is the recommended way to edit theme templates like index.php and archive.php?
See this forum post
How to change the name of a child theme?
Follow this example.
Where is functions.php?
One should never make changes in functions.php inside parent Builder directory. functions.php in child theme directory should be the one to make changes in. Some child themes will have functions.php and some don't. If this file is not present in child theme directory, create a new file named functions.php, place opening (<?php) and closing (?>) PHP tags, save and upload it to child theme directory using a FTP client. Alternately cPanel's file manager also lets us create files on the server.
Here is how a sample fresh functions.php file looks like:
<?php ?>
Any code that we advise you to add in functions.php must be added before the closing PHP tag.
Which Builder themes are mobile compatible?
With Builder, any of our child themes could be used as mobile themes simply by setting up your layout to be more narrow like the size of the iPhone screen.
Here are a few things to consider with mobile themes though:
Load times are slow, so you will want to use a theme that doesn't have many images to load. Any of the Foundation themes are a good example of this (among others).
None of our existing child themes have any gesturing built in to them, so some of the gestures that are very useful on the iPhone won't exist in child themes.
We do offer the Mobile plugin, which comes with a set of themes and a simple style manager that will allow you to match the colors of your mobile theme to the colors of your standard theme. You should have access to the Mobile plugin in your member area.
What are the minimum requirements for running Builder
The same as those needed for running WordPress 3.2 namely: at least php 5.2.4 and MySQL 5+.

How to setup a server on your computer, develop Builder sites locally and migrate them to another location
If you are on Windows:
- Install XAMPP.
- Set C:\xampp as the installation folder, now your localhost root will be in "htdocs" folder inside C:\xampp.
- [Optional] Set a password for MySQL.
- Download WordPress, extract the zip file and copy/move 'wordpress' folder inside C:\xampp\htdocs. Rename 'wordpress' folder to whatever is the name of your project.
- Install WP manually.
- Set up Builder.
- Once it is all ready, use BackupBuddy to do a full backup. The generated zip file should be in wp-content/uploads. Download importbuddy.php.
- To learn how to restore the site to another location, watch the video here.
If you are on Mac, install free version of MAMP by following this video. Do from step 4 (the root folder on Mac will differ) onwards listed above. I have set "Sites" inside my user directory as the root.
Can Builder be used to create a fluid/responsive site?
Very soon.
Builder is becoming responsive.
See http://ithemes.com/2012/10/10/responsive-is-coming-to-ithemes-builder/
I installed my Builder powered WordPress site at site.com/wordpress. How do I move it to site.com?
Follow this.
My site is loading slow
A standard WordPress site with a fresh installation of Builder with no plugins loads just fine without any slowness on a decent hosts. Site slowness, if present is (in 99% of the cases) not coming from Builder, but from other factors like non-optimized images, a lot of scripts added by plugins, hosting setup, server configuration etc.
Use the following analysis tools to pinpoint any conflicts, components that take a long time to load:
Analysis tools
- Chrome Dev Tools Timeline
- YSlow for Chrome, more on YSlow
- Page Speed Insights Chrome extension, Page Speed Insights Online
- GTmetrix (combines the above)
Things to check for when your site is loading slow
- Ensure that images (like the ones in header, sliders, Pages and Posts) are optimized for web.
- Ensure that there are no references/calls to URLs (links within the site) that do not exist.
- Deactivate plugins and see if it makes a difference.
- Try using a caching plugin like W3 Total Cache and/or a CDN.

What are the requirements for using Builder?
At a minimum, we have the same requirements as WordPress. As can be seen on the WordPress requirements page, the minimum supported version of PHP at the time of writing this is 5.2.4.
Builder will always be updated to handle any issues present in future PHP releases. A few versions back, Builder had some issues with the PHP 5.4.x releases. These issues have since been fixed.
So, as of this very moment, Builder is officially compatible with 5.2.4+.
Why do you advise me to add CSS code at the end of style.css versus directly modifying within?
The safest way to make css modifications is if you copy the code that our support moderators supply literally and add it in the location suggested. If you feel more confident hacking into existing code through changes that might cripple your site, feel free to do so, but we will not advise you to do so.
For example, if the code doesn't work (which is highly unlikely, since we test all code before we suggest it), and it's added at the end of your stylesheet, it will NOT harm anything, and we can review what you did, and suggest on how to fix it (did you forget a { or a ; or another character). If however something went bad halfway your stylesheet, your site could easily be completely messed up and all css following any invalid code (for example a missing { or } ) will be invalid as well.
This is our professional advise, but of course, you are free to choose whichever solution you think is best. Do note that it will frustrate our support efforts if there is an issue, and we have to search through a couple of hundred lines of css code to see what might or might not have been changed, opposed to just scrolling to the end of your stylesheet, and locate all customisations in one spot.
Layouts do not appear correctly
If the site does not appear correctly with the container not centered and everything aligned to the left, ensure that permissions of all directories in (including)
wp-content/uploads is 755.
Especially these directories in
uploads directory:
- it-file-cache
- it-file-cache/builder-core
- it-file-cache/builder-layouts

With its serene setting and pristine grounds, it's hard to believe that Lake Oswego is located just eight miles from Portland. Until its establishment in 1847, the city was a small collection of farms and homesteads on land rich with iron ore. Oregon Iron Company was founded with the goal to make Lake Oswego a major industrial center. Following the fall of the iron industry, the land was sold to some of Oregon's original land developers and a residential district was established.
Exceptional schools, beautiful homes and strong civic pride make Lake Oswego one of Oregon's most exclusive and sophisticated neighborhoods. Residents are highly involved in community events and issues whether it's volunteering at the city library, restoring outdoor habitats in parks and green spaces or attending an exhibit of a local artist.
Many of the homes along the shores of Oswego Lake are as impressive as the natural beauty around them. Original homes reflect the classic architectural style of the area's history, including English cottage, Tudor revival, Victorian and Craftsman. Newer estates are modern and contemporary, constructed of high quality materials consistent with the area's luxurious atmosphere.
The area's downtown business district is a popular destination for high-end shopping, dining and art galleries surrounded by breathtaking views of the lake. Outdoor art decorates downtown blocks while hanging flower baskets, carefully-chosen plantings and green trees enhance the city's appeal.
Lake Oswego is host to a thriving art scene and a popular destination is the Lakewood Center for the Arts. Dedicated to education and programming in the visual arts and theater, the center provides a schedule of classic and modern plays as well as classes for students aspiring to become actors and playwrights.
Lake Oswego's proximity to Oswego Lake and the Willamette River allow residents the opportunity to experience a variety of water activities close to home. At the city-owned water sports center, rowing, kayaking and canoeing lessons are offered for kids and adults. Choose from two swimming facilities conveniently located on the river, or head to Waluga Park with its 53 acres of beautifully-maintained hiking trails and sport fields.
Private mortgage insurance is an insurance policy that a residential mortgage lender requires of the borrower if the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of the home is greater than 80%. Mortgage insurance protects the lender from the risk that the borrower may default on the loan. Federal law requires lenders to notify borrowers when the loan-to-value ratio drops below 80%. Mortgage insurance premiums vary, but generally range from $1,000 to $5,000 a year for an average priced home.
