In reply to: current tag css classindojepang, I’m in need of the very same thing as you. I have tags combined with categories in my menu system and since the tags don’t receive the “current-cat” class, they don’t highlight like the categories. Did you find an answer? I wish it were as simple as having a “wp_list_tags” like the “wp_list_categories”…

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?Otto42, I didn’t request anyone to troubleshoot my local system as to why I couldn’t get permalinks working on Apache 1.3, so I don’t know why you’re hung up on that. I simply inquired if anyone knew if HostGator supported category permalinks. I’m glad it worked fine for you.
To anyone reading this thread at some future date — and are actually interested in the original question — HostGator emailed me claiming they do support category permalinks with WordPress. So woot to one and all. I think I’ll try them. Thank you one and all and goodbye.

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?Otto42, I’ve already mentioned twice that I have tried. I don’t know how to be any plainer. And please please forgive me for referencing outdated info on a WordPress page, I mean, it’s so rare to find outdated info on WordPress pages, what are the odds, right? Goodbye, folks.

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?I didn’t re-lookup the forum posts I referenced, but yeah, others are having trouble using Apache 1.3 and category permalinks, too. Even the WordPress permalinks page says this…
%category% does not work correctly with some implementations of mod_rewrite in Apache versions prior to version 2. If you are using Apache 1 and experience problems with using %category%, either do not use %category% in your permalink structure, or refer to Schlueterica’s plugin.
If HostGator works with no problems with category permalinks and no plugin is needed, then I’d be a happy camper and will sign up for an account. There are a lot of people who use category permalinks and a lot of people who use HostGator — so hoping someone that does both can confirm if category permalinks work at HostGator. Thanks.

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?Otto42, the reason I’m asking is question is because I previously had Apache 1.3 (same as HostGator) on my local dev. environment and permalinks refused to work until I upgraded to Apache 2.x. And I used mod_rewrite and AllowOverrides but still no go until Apache 2.
And there are posts on these forums that say category permalinks will *not* work unless greater than Apache 2.x. So I’m trying to confirm if category permalinks actually work using HostGator since they use Apache 1.3 and not Apache 2.x. Thanks.

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?whoami, I don’t have an account with HostGator yet — my site is still on my local dev. environment. I’m looking for a Web Host and considering HostGator *IF* I can use a category structure permalinks with their shared hosting plans. Thanks.

In reply to: List of Web Host supporting WordPress category permalinks?Thanks for the reply, Cornell. Much appreciated. I’d feel a lot better if someone who uses category permalinks on HostGator could confirm though. I’ll keep looking for an answer from HostGator and post back the answer. Thanks again.
Anyone else? Surely someone is using WordPress category permalinks on HostGator?

In reply to: Permalinks on local OS X ApacheMy local dev environment is Mac OS X 10.4. I could never get permalinks to work properly and beat my head on the wall trying all the “fixes” posted on forums, etc. I knew I was following the proper instructions but it just wouldn’t work.
It wasn’t until I upgraded to Apache 2.x that permalinks finally worked. Now any type permalinks I try works flawlessly. I can only assume that WordPress didn’t play nice with Apache 1.3.

In reply to: hierarchical categories and permalinkstcb, I was looking for an option or plugin that would allow me to only show the child category in my permalinks — nstead of having to use the parent/child as in the rigid %category%.
Your hack that doesn’t return the parent $chain but simply returns ” seems to work to only show child on permalinks. But I’m a little hesitate to hack the core code, as future changes could screw me up.
I wish WordPress simply added more parameters to the custom permalink feature such as this…
%parent% = parent category only
%children% = all children, excluding parent
%last_child% = last child category onlyOh well…

In reply to: RSS feed/image on Category onlyEdit: The CSS I posted above does prevent the image from displaying — but the img tag still appears in the html markup. I’d like to get rid of any RSS reference on subcategories if possible. Also, I’d like to move the rss icon to the left — before the category link but WordPress is overiding any attempt to float: left and forces the RSS image to appear behind the category link. Any input appreciated. Thanks.

In reply to: RSS feed/image on Category onlyI’ll reply to myself 🙂 maybe it will help another wordpress noob. I just made it display none in CSS. I suppose that’s kosher and not a problem.
#categories .children li img { display: none; }
