In reply to: Noob needs helpLook for these lines in your css file:
#commentform textarea {
width: 100%;
}
Delete those, then the cols=66 should work. 🙂Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Using two blogging systems with one databse… IsYup… works just fine. I’ve got my old MT db, my new WP db, and also a b2evo db (I’m just experimenting, honest!) all jammed into one… 😛

In reply to: I’m getting complaints about my comments boxI think I know what it is: In the default CSS file (from 1.0ish, not sure if it’s still there) there’s the following chunk:
#commentform textarea {
width: 100%;
}
And that causes the comment box to get super-wide as some browsers (it goes underneath your sidebar, and then you can’t see text when you’re browsing ). Take that chunk out, and you’ll be good to go.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: simple changes to designWell, here’s the thing: the developers aren’t being paid to create wordpress… so would you prefer that they spend their free time implementing new features, or writing a manual? And it’s not like everyone in the world is pitching in on the manual… it’s pretty much being led up by a few individuals who have become the quasi-official “doc writers”…

In reply to: Very odd error (archives / wp-login)Happens to me every once in a while too… but it happened almost every time I edited a file when I first started using WP, so I have it ingrained into my brain… 😛

In reply to: Very odd error (archives / wp-login)Almost always, when you get a “headers already sent” message it means that you’ve got unexpected whitespace (blank lines, etc) at the end of a php file. Check comment_plugger.php to ensure that there’s no blank lines at the end.

In reply to: WordPress CSS Style Competition! (ends Feb 6th)I think most style switchers require cookies in order to work (otherwise it won’t remember which style you’re using).

In reply to: simple changes to designIf the devs wanted to spoonfeed us they’d write some kind of manual, but they trust us to be able to work everything out ourselves.
Anonymous, meet the wiki. Wiki, meet anonymous. For somebody who claims to be among the WordPress “elite,” you don’t seem to know much about the WordPress community.

In reply to: Multiple WP loops?That would be tough… you would basically have to reset all the variables, and somehow get it to re-generate $posts… not a trivial task by any means, but I’m sure it’s doable if you have the will… 🙂

In reply to: Extremely cool way of listing categories and linksIt really wouldn’t be all that hard… you wouldn’t even really need to combine post and link categories… you could just have the same post and link categories, then display posts first, followed by links… if they were intermingled THEN it would be harder.

In reply to: rewrite rules. suggested ones don’t workFrom what I can tell, he was only having a problem with the category rewrite rule…
Frank: to check if your upgrade worked – check at the bottom of thep age in your admin pages… it should give you the version number for WP (says 1.0.1 once you upgrade)Forum: Plugins
In reply to: How do I display the last 10 posts ?Ahhh… lousy IE! Looks fine in Firebird! 😛
I tried editing it, but it tells me “sorry, you can’t perform this action” or some such nonsense… I can edit other posts, so maybe there’s an age limit on being able to edit posts… sorry! I tried! 🙂Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: UL and LIWell, everybody here has pretty much covered what I wanted to respond to. Markup is the building blocks, stylesheets are to make it look pretty. People seem to think that the idea here is to make WordPress the most popular blogging software out there, able to be used by the world over. Really, that’s what Blogger and LiveJournal are for. If you look at the features page for WP, the first thing on there is “Full standards compliance”… clearly, that’s something that the developers deem to be very important for the direction that WordPress moves in. If you have a problem with that, feel free to take it up with them (I’m sure Matt would love to argue with you about it), but you can’t really say that it caught you by surprise – it’s the very first feature!

In reply to: A little OT: Looking for flash mp3 player for siteI have no problem with it being a “click here to pop up a new window and listen to this song” type of feature, but that wasn’t the impression I had gotten from the originator of the thread… If that’s the case (ie the music doesn’t start right when I load the page, but instead is something optional that I can do later) then by all means, please accept my apologies… just please, PLEASE don’t make it so that your song automatically starts playing as soon as I go to your page. First off, it’s really amateurish (I hate trying to hunt down the “stop playing music” button)… and second off, it scares the bejeebus outta me 🙂
