In reply to: A Note on NightliesThere’s a cronjob rolling the nightlies out everyday, so they need not always work perfectly, since they are just a snapshot — Just a mild warning to those updating to the latest nightly all the time.

In reply to: Default Kubrick theme & $body_idAh! well, the $body_id variable is not a global, so by the time the get_header gets the header.php, the variable is lost, since it is out of scope.
Solutions? Well, not many I can think of off the bat. Maybe use some other method to set the body id, like using the is_single() ? functions inside header.php
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Trouble with file parameter in list_catsInclude the template tag in the file you want the links to appear in. The file parameter is almost a relic. Just use the templatetag on the page you want. If you still have problems, someone here will help you out.

well, looks like you are in a tight spot. With just the pages, I would say you leave the pages as they are (so you have an archive) and start off fresh with wordpress – unless you want to copy+paste all the posts into WP.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Default Kubrick theme & $body_idget_header only does the following:
5 function get_header() {
6 if ( file_exists( TEMPLATEPATH . '/header.php') )
7 load_template( TEMPLATEPATH . '/header.php');
8 else
9 load_template( ABSPATH . 'wp-content/themes/default/header.php');
10 }
That is, it uses the header.php for the theme you are using, or it uses the header from the default theme (look above for the directory)So your way should still work if you edit the right header.php files.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Wp other blogSearch and find a tool/plugin to display RSS feeds on your blog. Thats the easiest way. WP only support one blog per installation, anyways.

In reply to: Daily Archiving.All your posts are saved in the database, so archiving is there by default.
If you want to see the posts for a day, use http://example.com/index.php?m=20050101 (2005 +month + day) or similar.
If you want to create links on your blog for archives, check out http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags

In reply to: echo vs. return for WP functionsThere had been some discussion about including variations of the functions that return stuff instead of echoing them, at the hackers mailing list.
I suppose no one has had the time to modify the files and submit a diff. I will look into it as soon as I have an afternoon to spare.

In reply to: echo vs. return for WP functionsUse :
<?phpob_start();
the_tag_here();
$my_stuff = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();print($my_stuff); //or whatever else
?>
Alex King was the first person I heard talking about something like this, but it works, and uses normal php functions. The idea is to buffer the output and then use that.

In reply to: Import FormatsThe import-mt.php imports a standard-format text file formatted as it would be by MT when it exports the posts, or when it imports them.
You can also use the import-rss.php which is an RSS importer. You can modify it to import your xml format file, I guess.
Bulk-loading entries into the db won’t be good, cause the posts should have to be assigned to categories, and that involves some tables and so forth.
