In reply to: alphabetical postsDoes this not work with sortby=post_name? I’m listing artists and have full names for post titles but last names for slugs since I was hoping to use post_name to sort (i.e. sort by last name but display full names with the title) but it’s not working.

In reply to: Getting all posts to show up in one pageI found the option in the WordPress admin settings for limiting the number of posts to a certain number. That’s probably an ok solution since I can probably put some absurd number there. But I’d rather have the option to make it “ALL” or have it time based. Any suggestions?

In reply to: Category Icon PluginI’m trying to use this but the screen that should allow me to upload icon files just has a pull down menu that says —no icon— and no upload options. I’ve left the local, URL, and filetypes fields blank in the options screen and I’ve tried filling them in. Nothing works.
When I view source for the page that should be allowing me to upload the icons I see this hidden away:
<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to a member function on a non-object in <b>/home/sandarac/public_html/wp/wp-content/plugins/category_icons.php</b> on line <b>322</b>
What’s happening here?

In reply to: wp_list_pages doesn’t validate (no UL surrounding the LIs)I know. I did. I was just curious. I just read the wp_list_pages doc and it does show putting UL tags around the usage, so that’s good. (nothing to see here, move along)

In reply to: A different image on each PageThanks. If I name the image files like 1_image.jpg then that works. Not quite as elegant as what I wanted but it’ll do.

In reply to: Help in creating different background images for static pages?It was an issue with Permalinks. OP: I don’t know if my metod would help you or not but it’s allowing me to have a different image in the same place on each page.
EDIT: Never mind, still not working.

In reply to: A different image on each PageAlright, I set up Permalinks and I think it’s working now…
EDIT: It’s not. Even with Permalinks in effect it doesn’t work. Is there no code to use the Page Slug in a way like that?

In reply to: Using wordpress to drive a whole websiteThis isn’t the biggest deal but when I use Static Front Page it doesn’t add the Home page to my wp_list_pages . Any thoughts on why that’s happening?

In reply to: Having bits of the content from Pages appear on the front pageThis seems to work. I found it in one of the links you posted:
<?php
query_posts(‘pagename=Your Page Name’);
…
<?php the_excerpt(”); ?>
yada yadaso thanks!

In reply to: Help in creating different background images for static pages?I have a way to do it but I’m having a problem as well. It basically involves naming the image after the page, like page_image.jpg:
<img src=”http://www.mydomain.com/images/<?php the_title(); ?>_image.jpg” />
It works, BUT not if your page has multiple words in the title. I am combing the docs for how to replace the_title() with something that would reference the Post Slug rather than the full page title but I can’t find anything. Help!

In reply to: Having bits of the content from Pages appear on the front pageHmmm… I feel like there’s gotta be a way with php or something to pull that text into the front page.
If there really isn’t, maybe I should fake it some other way.
