In reply to: Automatic Upgrade not workingI am having an issue as well. Previous updates on this host have gone perfectly.
I now get this error message…
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 2516357 bytes) in /my/path to/wordpress/wp-includes/http.php on line 1363Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Someone Pirated My ThemesCan you get them to phone home and display a message in the header and footer that they are stolen?

In reply to: No Export TabIssue resolved. Problem was from Random Quotes plugin. When activated, it obscures the Export tab with the Quotes tab. Comparing my Manage tab at wordpress.com helped me find the culprit.
For those who are also trying to figure this out, here’s the solution:
…If you tweak the wp-quotes.php following the comment “Puts the Quotes manager thingie under the “manage” tab” in the line “$submenu[’edit.php’][40] = array(__(’Quotes’), 8, ‘edit-quotes.php’)” and change the 40 to 44, you should be good to go.

In reply to: Contact Form plugin and SPAMThis is a great plugin with Doug’s diabolically simple addition, which allows the question to be changed any time.
I made a page and put the reference (<!–contact form–>) in it, but still have a Comments Closed message at the bottom of it. Any way to make that go away for that page only?

In reply to: Exporting RSS feedSo, as usual, I found the solution just after posting the question…&^)
Solution is to save the RSS link source as an .xml file, then import into other blog.
The reason it didn’t work for me at first was that RSS was set to only the last 1 posts, so I only got the latest one. After changing that to a higher number I got them all.
Now then, I notice that there is no similar setting for how many comments to show in an RSS feed, and am wondering if there’s a way to set that number higher (defaults apparently to 1 as well) so that I can grab those as well.
By the way, my thanks to whomever made the RSS importer.

In reply to: 1.5 upgrade, no CSS, even default themesFor now I’m using an index.html redirect, which causes a delay in loading, but works.
macmanx: I did run the update file.

In reply to: 1.5 upgrade, no CSS, even default themesOops, not solved after all.
Turns out that using an external index.php with the require line edited no longer works for me.
That is, if I use an external index.php file from long ago I get either no theme or only the old default one if I upload wp-layout.css to the wordpress directory.
If I try modifying the more recent index.php files to call for ./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php, I get an error, which reads:
Warning: main(./wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/myusername/www/index.php on line 4
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘./wp-blog-header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/share/pear:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/myusername/www/index.php on line 4
Editing to try different expressions of the filepath get the same result. For instance the full filepath returns the same result.
Anyone tell me how to use an external (in www/) index.php file to go to my www/wordpress install?

In reply to: 1.5 upgrade, no CSS, even default themesSolved the issue by uploading wp-layout.css from the 1.3 install. Now other themes are selectable as well.
Why, I dunno.
Again, 1.5 is great stuff. I’m gloating over my decision to switch from MT last year….&^)

In reply to: ultimate comment spam blockerYou might search for trencaspammers, which stopped my spam issue cold for about a month. There are English instructions in the download if you don’t do Spanish.
Sadly, I just switched to SK because of the glowing reports here.
Trencaspammers still worked, just wanted a more transparent process, not making legit posters do work that only spammers should have to.

In reply to: Wait for 1.5?“The only thing that is missing that I think is super important is to be able to dwld all my posts as text. I know there is the wp to PDF but I want TEXT.”
Select your post, drag the selected text to your desktop. should make a textfile. You can drag that into any text editor and save with the correct title.
If you want to save link and image html, do the above from your editing page. If you just want the article “as read” then do it from your webpage.

In reply to: Database issue, need cli mysql helpThanks for that link. Right after the site came up yesterday it went back down.
I tried the instructions on the CLI page, and after some experimenting, found what my server needed, but by then had exceeded my connection attempts limit..&^)
This command is what would have worked for me…
mysqldump -uusername -p --opt mydatabasename > dumpname.sql
If nothing else, I learned more about CLI.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Database issue, need cli mysql helpJust came back, 8 hours later…
Which reminds me, would be great to have a way to backup our DB from within the admin panel of WP. I had a plugin last summer that promised to do that, but it didn’t work.
Thanks for replying and being the voice of reason while I panicked…&^)Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Line 93 error after upgradingSorry I’m so thick. Takes me a while to think of what to try next.
Just before I read your post I deactivated all the plugins manually, then was able to at least upgrade and get things working properly.
The plugins don’t work when activated in the new version, but no more php errors.
Probably need new plugins by now…&^)
I still cannot logout. When I try it takes me to the Write page, setting me up for a new post.
I’m assuming my database might be a bit boggered, checked when I went back to the old version and was using a 1.3 pre-alpha, so probably need to go edit something in there.
Any idea what array might be at issue if I can’t log out?
Again, thank you all for your help. I’ll be less impatient with both myself and WP next time…&^)
