In reply to: getting a posts ID for save_post actionsince the post/page form is submitted when someone hits the “Publish” or “Save Draft” buttons, I could just get the ID from $_POST[‘post_ID’]
Sometimes I don’t see the obvious… hrrmmpf

In reply to: RSS Imports Customizing the RSSThere are several Plugins out there, that (probably) can do the job for you. Look for the WordPress SimplePie Plugin. Also, WordPress comes with MagpieRSS which is a library that handles Feeds. In contrast to SimplePie it doesn’t handle RDF Feeds.
BTW: content theft is evil.

In reply to: Tags & PluginsWRONG! It’s “Jeromes Keywords”! 😉 but nevermind…
as WP2.2 brings Tagging-Functionality you could just wait that week and then you don’t need a plugin for this at all.

In reply to: Most trouble free editor with good support for tables? (wysiwyg capable)Thanks to this post, i found a few other alternatives.
So i share my finding here: i can recommend the “X Standard” WYSIWYG-Editor which is one generating the most valid (versus XHTML 1.1 – the most strict standard) results. it is very flexible and can easily be configured to ones needs.It is available in a free Lite-Version (that has pretty powerful, too – including good table support). The Pro-Version with Filemanager and Inline-Uploader, etc. etc. etc. is about 180$ for a 10-User License, which i think is quite fair. (theres a 30-day-trial that is really really powerful)
but: it needs to install itself on the first usage (compareable to the flash-plugin needed to view flash-animations in firefox).
In your case this would probably be a downside – in my opinion this is a plus, as this allows it to run much faster then the js-inline-popup things.i posted a few screenshots at http://contactsheet.de/weg-mit-tinymce-aber-zack-zack.xhtml
A Online-Demo is at http://xstandard.com/demo.aspI did’t yet put it together as a wordpress-plugin but that is my idea for the next week. For now i integrated it “by hand”. regards
BTW: Others still looking for a suitable Editor should take a look at this page, which gives a great overview over most WYSIWYG Editors out there:

In reply to: Registration/Lost Password E-mailthe same thing happened on my own localhost-installation using xampp, what leads me directly to
1. writing up the password – once you’ve finished the installation process – could avoid this problem, too. (no reset-password-mail, no reset-password-link, no new password 😉 )
2. this should really be a hosting-side issue. so in the first place you should ask the provider to provide php’s sendmail (mail()) functionality. furthermore i doubt that you have a possibility to change the mail-settings on your own.
3. If you can, or if its a localhost-installation, take a look into this tutorial:http://faq.kwm-web.info/doku.php?id=php (german)
In the last paragraph, named “Mail”, you’ll find how to fix the mail problem under windows. (expecially for xampp users)
In fact, it describes how to change the servers default. (hence needs a restart of the server)
well…

In reply to: customise the search_base (prefix) ??well, im running wp localised in german with a language file (de_DE.mo). anyway: this language-file has no effect on wp’s search. by default, search results are seen on a site with the following url:
http://www.domain.tld/wordpress/?s=searchterm
right?
i dont see what a language-file should translate here.even the plugin “nice search” or the instructions from the codex (that tell to create a search.php in /wordpress/ that sends a new header to /wordpress/search/searchterm) cant be customised, because simply translating the word search to my desired “suche” causes a 404-error.
again: translating the “normal” way or with poedit doesn’t work here.
i dont understand why wordpress internally accepts /search/ but /suche/ causes a 404…no ideas on fixing this localised url’s wordpress is persisting on?
again: my problem is not to localise a theme or plugin, my problem is wordpress being pre-localised… 🙁
kindly

In reply to: customise the search_base (prefix) ??no replies since? if this little piece of mod can be done with lightpress -> should be possible with wp, no?

In reply to: customise the search_base (prefix) ??ok, whats up? silly explained, or also too stupid for such mods? 😀

In reply to: customise the search_base (prefix) ??doesn’t work -> returns a 404 (well, this would have been too easy – furthermore i already tried that version!)
did i mention that wp2.02 seems to have the word ‘search’ deeply in its code? it doesn’t make any sense to me (as every visitor just sees ?s=blabla per default) but thats what my problem is. redirecting dont work (neither the way you mentioned nor via mod_rewrite nor via a separate search.php (sending headers) as mentioned elsewhere in this forum.
*sad* 🙁
(edit) it seems wordpress needs the word “search” to recognize a request being a search… but where exactly can i influence this hardcoded wp-inconsequency? imho it would be clever to have a seperate field for this setting in the permalink-section. (/edit)

In reply to: Multiple WP Install Searchwhy two blogs? have you thought of using two main categories to seperate things? you could even use different templates for different categories, whilst the different category-lists in sidebars (or nav menus) just show the subcategories that would represent what normally is done with the upper categories.
this is just an idea and i’m not sure how you would like to display search results for two different blogs on one and the same results-page for example?
good luck.

In reply to: using category-base for short pathsok, got it… but it only works the way i expected, when a category-base is set:
<?php $catbase = $wpdb->get_var(“SELECT option_value FROM $wpdb->options WHERE option_id=47”); ?>what can i do to adress the case that no category_base is set: (if no value is set for category_base it returns “/” in my case, at least) how can i make sure, that my $catbase is always correct?
