I know Wp doesn't allow java script, but I really need to implement welcome image pop=up on frontpage.</p> <p>Is there any way I con do this? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/325780#post-1261819 Wed, 28 Oct 2009 13:10:01 +0000 aliceralph 1261819@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I have a client who wanted (shock, horror!) a FLASH INTRO...ewww.. I have talked him out of Flash because of SEO issues, but agreed as a compromise that I would try to include some sort of snazzy welcome that shouldn't interfere with the SEO. </p> <p>What I would like to do is this:</p> <p>When a new visitor first visits index.php there is a full-screen pop up image which fades jquery stylee into a second image, and then fades away completely to reveal the main index page. Ideally if this could only happen the first time that they visit index.php, and not when they click back onto that page from another via the menu. </p> <p>Could anybody help point me to anything that might help me achieve this? I've used jquery before but nothing quite like this and can't seem to find anything existing. </p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/271167#post-1075925 Sat, 16 May 2009 21:03:12 +0000 esmi 1075925@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Try:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if(!$user_ID ) :?&gt; Welcome guest! and so on.. &lt;?php else :?&gt; Welcome back &lt;?php echo $user_identity; ?&gt; ... &lt;?php endif;?&gt;</code></pre> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/271167#post-1075470 Sat, 16 May 2009 04:30:17 +0000 nazcar 1075470@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi everyone,<br /> I want to create a welcome message for guest and for registered users.</p> <p>conditions:<br /> if not logged in/guest:<br /> display: Welcome guest! and so on..</p> <p>if logged in/returning back users:<br /> display: Welcome back {username} ... and so on..</p> <p>Thank you. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/264682#post-1054441 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 19:07:15 +0000 claytonboen 1054441@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Worked like a charm!

You just have to remember it's theme independent. </p> <p>Before I edit stuff like that, I always make a copy of the original in case I fry something...then just swap the file...Curious if it works though! Since I can't get the backticks to work for posting code - if this doesn't make any sense - give me an email and I'll send you the exact code I was talking about </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/264682#post-1054351 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 17:23:21 +0000 claytonboen 1054351@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thank you for suggesting the video, however it does not provide me with the instructions to do what I am asking. It provides me with the instructions to do what I have already done. </p> <p>If you visit the site, I already have my static front page. Then, the visitor clicks on the link to visit the blog. On the header I have a list of all my pages in the blog, the first being HOME. That home page link, when clicked, takes the visitor back to my static page. I want that link to take them to the blog page, not the front page. </p> <p>Any ideas? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/264682#post-1054342 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 17:12:11 +0000 papaskin 1054342@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Check this out - I think it will give you the second step you are looking for - <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAi3ZM1h4SY" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAi3ZM1h4SY</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/264682#post-1054322 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 16:56:03 +0000 claytonboen 1054322@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks for reading.</p> <p>I have created a static welcome page that greets every visitor to my blog (temp address is <a href="http://www.cataxrevolution.com)" rel="nofollow">http://www.cataxrevolution.com)</a>. This seems to be working out well, however, there is a bug.</p> <p>Once the visitor has "entered" into the site, if they click on the "HOME" page, it takes them back out into the welcome screen. I need it to take them to the blog page instead, which would be <a href="http://www.cataxrevolution.com/DanWarp" rel="nofollow">http://www.cataxrevolution.com/DanWarp</a></p> <p>Can someone tell me how to make that change?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262640#post-1047326 Thu, 16 Apr 2009 12:09:39 +0000 hwangzhiming 1047326@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>hi ,I from China, and my site is <a href="http://www.topming.com">http://www.topming.com</a>,it is new,I want to let my blog travel,so I can make more and more friend .by the way,my blog is all about my college life.Remember,you are welcome anytime! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/152851#post-679899 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 02:05:17 +0000 Erin24 679899@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I am using the WelcomeBack plugin <a href="http://miche.netsons.org/welcome-back-user-wordpress-tip.html">here</a>.</p> <p>Everything is working fine, except I'd like to know how to add the amount of comments left by the user as shown in the image.

I need to put the WELCOME description to my blog...</p> <p><a href="http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/1757/sshot2rn6.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/1757/sshot2rn6.jpg</a></p> <p>Bye </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539960 Mon, 02 Apr 2007 14:26:04 +0000 erika_conn 539960@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Well, I don't know what just happened. I downloaded the updated Andreas04 into a different directory from my other blog directory and, to my surprise, the initial blog theme updated too.<br /> In answer to your question, I never got an error message. However, not all the options are on the Andreas04.<br /> How can I put it? Take for instance the RSS icon. Andreas09 has it. Andreas04 does not.<br /> I'm sure there's lots more but that's all I have so far. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539941 Mon, 02 Apr 2007 13:21:43 +0000 doodlebee 539941@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm just curious, because usually (I'm not familiar with Andreas, so I can't say for sure) it's not hard to upgrade a theme. My own theme only required one line of code to make it compatible for 2.1.2 (I had to change the wp_get_categories() in the sidebar to wp_get_bookmarks() and all was well.) So I was just wondering what kind of issues you were having - are they just on the back end? I mean, if you put Andreas 04 on 2.1.2, were you getting error messages, or just a blank screen?</p> <p>Just curious :) If I knew what errors you were getting, exactly, I might be able to help you fix them. (I'd download and look myself, but I'm not running 2.1.2 anywhere to see.) </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539797 Mon, 02 Apr 2007 01:48:34 +0000 erika_conn 539797@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>It doesn't appear in the 2.1.2 theme directory. 2.1.2 has a lot of added features that sound like they'd be fun to use. If I want to use Andreas04, I have to stick to 2.07.<br /> Here are the examples:<br /> canwetalk.ceconn.com - this is Andreas04 with WP2.07<br /> ceconn.com/wordpress - this is Andreas09 with WP2.1.2<br /> I can't find Andreas04 to work with 2.1.2</p> <p>Am I making sense? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539742 Sun, 01 Apr 2007 22:47:00 +0000 doodlebee 539742@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Oh. Well, how is the theme not compatible? What errors are you getting, or why do you believe that? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539680 Sun, 01 Apr 2007 19:54:13 +0000 erika_conn 539680@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Oh, you're not seeing the new one - WP2.1.2. Previously I had WP1.07 and that's the one you'd be seeing because the new one is not live yet. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/112203#post-539662 Sun, 01 Apr 2007 19:05:28 +0000 doodlebee 539662@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>How is it not compatible? I'm not seeing any errors...</p> <p>Is it just giving you the error on the categories? Or what's it doing? </p>
