Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Side bar question/ codeThis might not be what you want, and seems tedious, but you could just manually make the links that way (I assume you still want the text to be linked? If not, simply don’t link it), writing the special characters like this:
<a href="domain.com/blog">blog</a>Ok, this is the second time I’m editing this: It won’t let me use the code, even with backticks, for the less-than and greater-than signs that open and close HTML tags, so basically, without spaces, you’d use & l t ; and & g t ;

In reply to: Moved to New Host, Archives MissingIn my case, I just uploaded the .htaccess file and set the permissions so that it’s writable. (I kept a copy of everything before I moved!)

In reply to: Moved to New Host, Archives MissingI redid the .htaccess, but I didn’t realize I had to redo the permalinks. I assume by “redo” you mean to go to the Options/Permalinks tab and “Update Permalink Structure.” Anyway, that seems to have worked. Thanks!

In reply to: Javascript ProblemI didn’t change the code, just the script call (
<script language="javascript">). My doctype is xhtml, and that requires that all HTML be lowercase.It’s still not showing up for me, in Netscape or IE.

In reply to: Server or WP?That’s what I thought. Thanks.
Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: projectnothing.comDid anyone ever answer your question about how to put post titles in your sidebar? Your site is still downloading for me (I’m on dialup, ick!), so if you have a sidebar, I don’t see it yet, and therefore can’t see if you’ve added post titles. Looks great so far, though. 🙂
This is the code I have in my sidebar to call for recent posts (just the titles):
<?php
$today = current_time('mysql', 1);
if ( $recentposts = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT ID, post_title FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish' AND post_date_gmt < '$today' ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 5")):
?><?php
foreach ($recentposts as $post) {
if ($post->post_title == '')
$post->post_title = sprintf(__('Post #%s'), $post->ID);
echo "<li class='sidebar'><a href='?p=$post->ID'>";
the_title();
echo '</a></li>';
}
?>And where you see “DESC LIMIT 5” you can change the 5 to however many number of post titles you want.

In reply to: Pimp My BlogOh, sorry, I meant that for dopegirlfresh, but if you get that site up, I’ll put the link up, too. 🙂

In reply to: My Theme Doesn’t Show in Netscape, But Does in IEI’m using version 7.2. And an update: I got off the computer yesterday morning, and then got back on just a little while ago (about 14 or 15 hours later), and I’m still having this problem. If anyone who uses Netscape can see the Halloween theme, please let me know. I want to see if it’s just me, or if it’s something with Netscape. I want to invite my friends to see my theme (ok, it’s not super-duper or anything, but it gave me a chance to experiment with some graphics), but I want to make sure they can see it first.

In reply to: Pimp My BlogI like this idea, I must say! 😀
Hey, can I post that link on my site? Consider it free advertising. 🙂

In reply to: Spoiler-Plugins ProblemI just wanted to let anyone who reads this post know that I finally figured out my problem. In case someone else has the problem, I’ll give a brief explanation of how I solved it:
I don’t know if all these tags are necessary to put into the PHP code to call the_excerpt_reloaded, but one of the things I did in getting the Spoiler-Plugins to work is make sure all html tags in the plugin were in the second parameter for the_excerpt_reloaded, and I have mine set like this:
the_excerpt_reloaded(100, '<a><img><b><i><ul><ol><li><h1><h2><h3><div><font><table><spoiler><input>', 'excerpt', TRUE, '(More...)', FALSE, 1, TRUE);In the spoiler-plugins file itself, I scrolled to the bottom and activated (removed the double slashes –
//) the following line:add_filter('the_excerpt', 'smart_spoiler_tag', 20);At first, I changed it to ‘the_excerpt_reloaded’, but that didn’t work. Leave it as ‘the_excerpt’, even if you’re using the_excerpt_reloaded.
Hope this helps someone!

In reply to: Adding target=”_top” to QuicktagsThat worked! Thanks!
Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: People should search moreJust to speak for myself…I almost always search first. I try to make it a habit. I even look at FAQ’s on websites before emailing people! 😀 But sometimes a search doesn’t bring up a post that solves my problem, or only solves part of it. Admittedly, I don’t usually look beyond the first page of results, because I usually don’t find better answers than the first page. I just posted a question about adding a link attribute in quicktags.js. I did find results, but even the person who posted some code said it didn’t work.
As for the times I don’t search first, it’s usually because I forget, and I apologize for that.
