  In the Blog Archive down on the left sidebar I can only see the name of the month (April 2013), but down that clicking on “April 2013” I would like to see the titles of the posts of that month (for each month). How can I do it?
  thank you for your help

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  CSS editing cannot be used to chnage the way any theme is designed to function. It can only be used to change appearance. Please read:

  Does the Custom Design upgrade let me edit HTML?
  No. The Custom Design upgrade allows you to edit fonts and CSS only. You can change the appearance of a theme, but not its HTML markup, PHP code, or content. … http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#frequently-asked-questions

  Thank you very much! I just started to configure the blog and I’m trying to learn to do CSS etc.
  I still have one problem if you can help me about that:
  the width of the post area on the single post page is smaller than the width of the post area in the main blog page (I previously modified the width of the entire homepage and of the two parts (left sidebar and post area) with CSS).
  I would like to increase the width of the post area on the single post page an make it centered in the page (the page that opens up when you click on the post title in the home page). How can I do it? Do you know which CSS code I should use?

  Thank you for any help

  Sometimes it’s best to post new questions in separate help requests instead of adding them on to older or long threads. It helps to keep things from getting missed and keeps everything better organized. :)

  I replied to the other question you posted at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/increase-the-width-of-the-layout?replies=4#post-1249508

  Give it time, sometimes questions take a little time to get answered.
