In reply to: Admin from local networkI don’t think there is a way to administer your WordPress locally using a different URL, because WP stores the blog and site URL with in it’s database.
This is an intriguing problem which no potential recourse but to hack WP.

In reply to: Plugin Manager displaying plugins that don’t workKeep in mind that the majority of plugins out there were created by the author for their personal use. It was first and foremost meant to work with their blog. It is usually then beautified and shipped to the world to use with the caveat that it release “as-is”.
It is unreasonable to expect very plugin author to know how his/her plugin is going to be used. Best practices in coding apart, sometimes thing will break, that’s inevitable.
To blame “amateur” coders for this is wholy unfair. And frankly, if you have such distrust of plugins that are out there, you have two options. 1) Write your own, 2) Verify every plugin you download to ensure that it is going to work and not break anything.

In reply to: How to exclude smileys from image count…That plugin is based on my original plugin, but to make it not count smiley’s, you’d just have to tune the $imagecount line to be more restrictive.
Currently it is looking just for the <img tag and counting them. The regular expression patter would have to be changed to look for <img but exclude the smiley directory (as an example).
If you’re up to some coding/hacking. 🙂 You can check out:

In reply to: Where to put gravatar line?I just added a new class to my “styles.css” file for my theme called:
.gravatar
{
background-color: #fff;
padding: 3px;
margin: -3px 8px 5px 0px;
border: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #b8b8b8;
}
And then where you have the IMG tag for your gravatar, just add ‘class=”gravatar”‘ and change the color if you want and you’ll get the border and more.

In reply to: yet another numbering questionIf your intention is to have unique styling for each post. Then you an set a simple variable called
$i = 0;and then just do$i++each time through The Loop and use it in the div.Perhaps you could tell us a little more about what you are trying to accomplish..

In reply to: Live (ajax) Spell CheckerVery cool. Works for me on FF 1.0.4 on Windows. I like the fact that it highlights the misspelled words and provides alternatives. Very impressive.
*must resist urge to implement every plugin under the sun*..:)

In reply to: Contact Form problems….No problem. Glad to help. 🙂
I think Textile and Markdown are supposed to make it easier for you to write your posts if you learn the syntax and I’m sure if you take the time to do so, you can do some fun stuff with it. But, in most cases it usually seems to do some “extra” work when you didn’t intend it to and that causes more grief than anything.
I’ve given Markdown a try and when I actually remember to use the various “command” syntax to do the things I want it’s great, but I seldom remember that I have it on and it seems such a waste to have a plugin trudge through my posts when I haven’t given it any work to do.
Though, it would seem that more people are having issues with Textile modifying posts in a bad way, so they just turn it off..
Your mileage may vary..

In reply to: Where to put gravatar line?The Gravatar-singup plugin simply adds a checkbox that users can check when they comment on your website to create their own gravatar.
To actually show commeter’s gravatar, you need the ‘gravatar’ plugin which houses the gravatar(); call. The Signup plugin doesn’t display it for you.
You need 2 plugins here to accomplish the two distinct tasks.

In reply to: Contact Form problems….“<!-<del>contact form</del>->”
The <del> and </del> is your problem. The contact form plugin just replaces the correct string with it’s code, but in this case with these extra characters, it can’t do it.
What post modifying plugins do you have running? Markdown? Textile?
