 * Cool, thanks.
    If it’s any help, note that it’s presumably mostly non-profits
   and other organizations that want to keep track of multiple funds, so would probably
   pay for a “pro” version of the plug-in that did this.

 * I see this issue – of distinguishing one fund from another – has come up a few
   times on this forum, for websites which have more than one donation stream to
   a single Paypal account.
 * If the ItemID field was exposed on the API such that you could get the balance/
   totals on a specific ItemID this would presumably be sufficient. (It’s how we
   disaggregate general donations from donations to specific funds when doing the
   accounting.)
 * But it seems it’s not exposed on the API!
 * oshingler, could there be another way of doing it? Instead of looking at the 
   account balance for the overall account, could there be an option for a given
   oliometer to keep track of donations made through specific buttons? All the other
   options would presumably be untouched – you still need offline donation values
   and total values and starting values etc. But instead of grabbing the account
   total the plugin would keep track of donations made through the button? (but 
   maybe that’s not possible either?)
 * It’s a real bugbear for Paypal (and by consequence means this and other plugins
   simply aren’t compatible with the way Paypal itself is meant to work – that you
   can have different ItemIDs for different income streams.)

 * This is a real pain.
 * The Classic nav is less customizable and doesn’t seem to work with child pages
   at all.
 * Meanwhile use the main Pagelines navbar, in order to add child pages, we are 
   now supposed to move the main (parent) pages under themselves?! This will break
   lots of links and as far as I’m concerned is a weird inconsistent behaviour.
 * Why is everyone obsessed with touch users to the detriment of the many more users
   on desktops, laptops, etc! Most non-touch users expect to be able to click the
   top item in a nav bar, especially when the child pages are visible on hover.

 * Hi esmi
 * For other’s reference – yes I could still access posts and view them on the live
   website – they just had Uncategorised status.
 * I did have a backup of the database haven’t had to go that far.
 * In phpMyAdmin I tried to view the structure of the Categories table. I got an
   error message as follows:
    #1 – Can’t create/write to file ‘/tmp/#sql_706_0.MYD’(
   Errcode: 17)
 * Googling around this implied that the server was having a problem creating or
   writing to temporary database files, indicating that perhaps (even though the
   account itself had plenty of disk space) the server or MySQL installation was
   running low on system space.
 * I contacted my hosts and reported the error that phpMyAdmin was giving me. 15
   minutes later it seems to have cleared up; they had restarted the SQL service
   on the server (it’s a shared server so this wasn’t something I could do directly).
   My website is now showing Categories again on posts and the theme is showing 
   selected Categories in the right place and Category pages are listing the relevant
   posts.
 * If you have the same problem I had them if you browse into the …data_category
   table in phpMyAdmin, then click the “Structure” tab, this returned an error message.
   After restarting the SQL service it had cleared and now lists the fields as you
   would expect. The WP behaviour is back to normal and no actual data about the
   posts’ categories appears to have been lost.

 * Hi Esmi. I have now upgraded but was using 3.0.1 before I think. And this issue
   is obviously cutting across versions.
 * I’ve tried repairing and the corrupt table was related to a plugin. This is now
   supposedly fixed but it hasn’t fixed the Categories problem. All posts still 
   report as Uncategorised for most purposes – but the empty Categories panel still
   mysteriously reports “24 items” (Categories) despite not being able to show them
   to me!

 * Okay it just got even weirder. I updated my WP version to 3.1.1 hoping that might
   reset Categories tables or something. The Categories panel in the WP back-end
   now shows no items in the list at all (before it was listing the Categories and
   told me how many posts each category had). However, despite showing no Categories,
   it does say there are “24 items” in the list (it’s showing none!) and has pagination
   for two pages – neither of which actually lists any items.
 * I’m hoping the fact that some part of the system still recognises that there 
   should be a couple dozen categories means all the data is still there and something
   else is broken…
 * I’ve run a check on the MySQL database and get the following towards the end 
   of the output:
 * Size of datafile is: 3190784 Should be: 3190952 error : Corrupt
 * That doesn’t sound very good

 * It doesn’t appear to be a disk space issue for me either. The site is only using
   half of its 5GB allowance.

 * My site was working fine one minute then I made a post – a standard post for 
   my blog with several categories and tags – and then all the posts were suddenly
   listed as Uncategorised.
 * Weirdly, they show as Uncategorised and the customised theme I’m using fails 
   to display posts in given categories in the right places, but on the Categories
   tab itself it does seem to know how many posts should be in each category – so
   it’s obviously able to count them somehow!
 * Any help greatly appreciated. I’ve tried resetting permalinks as suggested but
   I can’t see how this would help and there’s no explanation – and it hasn’t worked.

 * Experienced a similar problem.
 * Four different WordPress installations all on the same web space have been infected.
   Php files contain inserted malicious code in the form of an iframe. Perhaps other
   insertions as well?
 * The result is that various bits of functionality no longer work in the WordPress
   CMS, for example text editor tool bars, upload bar, etc. One of the WordPress
   sites isn’t even viewable from the front anymore!
    Desperately in need of a plugin
   that will rip out the malicious code?! Otherwise I’m going to have to download
   all the websites, strip out the malicious code by hand — which will take about
   eight years — then upload them again! (My web host doesn’t have backups of the
   files.) Can anyone help? A plugin? A script to replace the malicious code inserted
   in the name of cdpuvbhfzz.com?
 * cdpuvbhfzz.com or whoever wrote this hack – you are the scum of the earth.

 * I’m also getting this on WP 2.2, using Firefox 1.5.0.11
 * I tried deactivating and reactivating all plugins as suggested but to no avail.
 * (Btw to clarify, my editor is not just stuck in HTML-edit mode. The line break
   tags aren’t visible, for example, but the bold and italic text formating tags,
   url tags etc, are visible as text. So it really is just stuck in a regular plain
   text mode rather than either rich-text or HTML-text.)

 * Hmm okay. The authors of syndicated Posts are stored in the database but they
   are stored as Users with the role “Subscriber” by the FeedWordPress plugin. I
   can manually change this Role but by that but can I change the way it defaults?

   site [http://www.bob.seldo.com](http://www.bob.seldo.com)
 * The errors are here:

 * Avoid content:encoded
    wfw:commentRSS should be wfw:commentRss content:encoded
   should not contain style attribute content:encoded should not contain onclick
   attribute
 * All the help from FeedValidator for these errors says to edit them out. But I
   don’t know how…?!
