In reply to: Site CritiqueHi Stacy,
In the ‘about’ section, if you click the hyperlink for the ‘simple comment form,’ strangely, I find myself at google. The status bar spit back some php, from the looks of it. I didn’t delve into this very far, but I think a quick inspection will reveal the problem to you.
I was going to mention that with such a narrow column, you will have to keep your posts short, but you touched on that already in your about section, so you’re one step ahead of me.
I’m curious to know if you’re going to have archives on the page? Also, I’m not a tremendous fan of strikethrough on a:hover.
Otherwise good stuff. Are you going to increase the update tempo?Forum: Your WordPress

In reply to: My WordPress Wish ListThanks. I see your point.
I think we’re in agreement.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Anyone kind enough todo this for me?Looks kind of narrow in my system entangle. If that’s the look you want, I’d consider a two column style, with what you have now on the left, and the entries on the right? Just a thought.
Of course, I am on firefox, so that might just be my issue. You mention having firefox problems.
In any case, what you’re asking isn’t very difficult. Just code like you would normal html/css and plug in the template tags where you’d like the content to be.
http://wordpress.org/docs/template/ try that to get an idea of most of the most important tags.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Blog as Homepage?I’ve seen documentation to list how to do this without moving your wordpress contents. It’s a minor pain in the ass. Things have to be edited, goats sacrificed. I’d do as slithery suggested.
Just install wordpress in the root directory (public_html), and then you are set. Don’t worry about ‘losing’ your content if you move it. The database is still in the same place and all of that, so it’ll be fine.
Make sure you change the site uri in your options so your links are all set correctly.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Calling WordPress header file from another directoI used a relative path with mine.
I have an archive for my templates, so my main stuff is in the root, and I have old index.php’s saved in a directory called /oldnews
so now for the stuff in old news i just added a dot. My header-call says it’s in ../wp-includes instead of ./wp-includes, and it seems to work. Maybe try hunting in that direction.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Live Journal Plugin Pack Release 3well unteins, it must just be me. I over-wrote all of the plugins, and I still get it. It doesn’t post to livejournal from the original post screen.
I get no error tags.
when I edit and save, it posts to livejournal. If I edit the same post twice, it posts to livejournal twice.
I’ll figure out what the hell it is on Monday. I’ll look around. If anyone else is having the problem, please say something, otherwise it’s probably something specific to my install somehow, and I just have to hunt it down.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Live Journal Plugin Pack Release 3unteins,
I upgraded finally, as I was previously wary of breaking something that already worked.
Which is apparently exactly what I managed to do. I haven’t finished testing this out, so it might be a phantom bug, but it only seems to post to livejournal when I edit a post and republish it, not when I originally write it.
Would you know what that would be? It’s not a huge deal, but I am curious as to what it might be.Forum: Your WordPress

In reply to: My WordPress Wish Listthunderbyrd,
And I mean this without the slightest disrespect, having not used Expression Engine myself (I’m a cheap-ass), and noting that you recognized that EE has many of the features you requested, why don’t you use EE? This is a sincere question. I’m not trying to be snarky.
I assume that you know those features are there because you’ve used it, but maybe that’s my mistake. Those might all be on a feature’s list, so perhaps cost is your concern too.
Over-all though, I agree with some of your suggestions, but would add this:
Many people would like the features you added, but some of us like things small and sleak. Perhaps the solution would be to offer wordpress “naked”, and then a “standard plug-in bundle” people could download seperately, which would include several of the most frequently used plug-ins. This way, even newbs could use spell-checking and the like with very minor difficulty, and older dogs don’t have to be stuck with features they don’t need.
Just a thought.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Building an entire site with WPI just write the aboutme stuff as a seperate page and link to it in the index.php
Actually at this point I (very lazily) use old aboutme pages from an old, crappy design, so it’s kind of incongruent with my current setup, but it works.
The information presented above will probably allow you to construct different section pages that will more closely match your pre-existing template.Forum: Your WordPress

In reply to: ~~Help~~Make sure you set your path write under OPTIONS–>Miscellaneous.
My path is something like this
/home/myusername/public_html/images
but if I had just been looking at the ftp director, I could just as easily have set it as /public_html/images, which would have been incorrect and wouldn’t work.
