Okay, I've been trying for ages and I think that I'm going to cry 🙄
There's a number of things that I need help with all are pretty much probably really straight forward, but as this is my first time using e-fiction on my own site and not as a submitter I've finally ran out of my own knowledge. I've searched the forum by using 'Browse By' 'Browse By Series' and some other searches, but i couldn't find what I was after.
I'm using version 3.3.1, viewing on Motzilla (and have also view it on IE 6 and 7), using a modifed version of the 'Jelly' skin. My live website is http://www.warcraftlegends.co.uk if you'd rather see it personally.
The first couple of things are related to my front page: As you can see from below, in my Browse By Section I'm missing 'Series' (not bothered about the other missing items) and for the life of my I cannot get it back; even though it is listed in my TPL and it is switched on in the panels (not hidden) browser and people are able to add them - there is even a series already on the site.
Also, I have activated it in my Blocks but the 'Online' information isn't showing; only site information that shows the total, not who is online. Is there something that I should be adding to my site info instead?
and finally, related to the front page, I seem to have lost my RSS feed,
Now, there's also another thing; purely aesthetic for me but i really really want it: When people preview their fics, they get this lovely page of story showing, which has nice thick margins and spacing etc:
But when you view the actual story, it goes right across the centre block and the horizontal line under AN has gone. Like this:
Now there's a horizontal line in this view as i've gotten around that by sticking HMTL in the TPL, but i love the preview layout so much more as it makes it so much nicer to read. How do I make it like that? is there a tpl I should be looking at? Is it in the css? I'm lost.
Sorry if this isn't the right place to post; I think it is, but this is the first time that I've done something this large before (which it probably isn't to you wise and seasoned efiction guru's but a little noob like moi, i'm completely befuddled)

Just so you know, you have a notice showing up at the top of your page. It's hidden behind most of your banners.
Notice: Undefined index: rss in /home/i23gene/public_html/includes/pagesetup.php on line 93
If you have debug on, turn it off.

Browse series:
You definitely have a browse series area: http://www.warcraftlegends.co.uk/browse.php
The main menu in skins can be set by the header.tpl, variables.php, and also the admin area.
In the Horde skin, the browse area in the menu is part of the header.tpl of the skin.
<div id="menu">
<ul id="menulist">Browse By:
<li>{recent}</li>
<li>{authors}</li>
<li>{catslink}</li>
<li>{titles}</li>
<li>{series}</li>
<li>{challenges}</li>
<li>{tens}</li>
<li>{search}</li>
</ul>
</div>
# Browse By: Most Recent
# Authors
# Categories
# Titles
#
#
#
# Search
It looks like it's set there so look at the variables.php and see if you set it to be off by accident or something. Also check the panels or pagelinks in the admin area and make sure you didn't set them to be hidden.

Preview: I think that's a bug that the preview page looks different than the actual story page.
You can try editing/adding these on the style.css of the skins:
#story {
padding: 1em;
padding-top:1ex;
}
#story P {
margin-bottom:1em;
text-align:justify;
}
Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

Something so easy once you know how; can't believe I sat here for two days banging my head against my desk trying to figure it 🙄
