In reply to: Brian’s Threaded Comments, anyone?Did you upload the plugin file to the correct location (
wp-content/plugins)? When you uploaded it, did you upload it in ASCII mode via your FTP program?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Brian’s Threaded Comments, anyone?It’s not really a matter of “supposed to”, it’s a matter of choice. If you’d like your plugin to be installable/listable by the WPPM, you can choose to add it to it. It is something you do yourself as a plugin author.
That said, your threaded comments plugin isn’t really a good candidate, at least for the One-Click install. The WPPM has no capacity to diddle with core files or even templates.

In reply to: Brian’s Threaded Comments, anyone?The WPPM isn’t the definitive plugin authority, the “Plugins” section of the WP administration interface is. If it shows up there, activate it.

In reply to: How to edit my source code?That’s just it, you can’t edit the static HTML because it doesn’t exist. WordPress generates the content dynamically every time it’s requested.

In reply to: Archive view shows no linksIt’s still personal preference though. I personally hate excerpts since they do remove markup and images and people that are already in my archives, in my mind, don’t want to have to click on each individual post to get at the full content, then click the “back” button to get back to the archive, then click… ad infinitum.
I use full content and I paginate my archives. I provide a certain number of posts per page so that the overall size of the requested file is no more burdensome for my 10 complete posts than it is for, say, 60 excerpts.
How you define “user-friendly” and how I define “user-friendly” are obviously different. However, I do take issue with your defining your preference as the “best” solution.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Static pages that keep the themePerhaps someone should update it so people like me don’t waste any time groping for info.
Perhaps it’s a problem with semantics. WordPress 1.5 has a feature for content that is not in the ordinary flow of “posts” meaning more static content. However, aside from various staticizing plugins WordPress is always a dynamic piece of software. Seriously, if you want something that gets rebuilt like MT, likely MT is your best bet.
