Was the error in regards to wp_getcurrentuser() or something? If so, it’s because of the way that particular function was redesigned in 1.5.1.

I found that the latest version of the plugin didn’t present the same problem, but it had issues of “can’t send header information” on my RSS feed which of course broke it.

What problem are you having exactly?

I got the latest version after upgrading to WP 1.5.1 and it allowed it to work, but I had an issue with it breaking my RSS feeds, so I disabled the plugin until I get more time to look at the issues.

I believe they are fixed in the latest code in the SubVersion repository. I upgraded all the way up to the May 17th version of the code to get all the fixes.

You might want to wait for 1.5.1.1 to come out (hopefully soon) if those two fixes are critical for you.

A ‘cron’ job is a Unix/Linux functionality that allows a task to be run at a pre-determined time or on pre-determined intervals by the system automatically.

This is usually a service that your web hosting prodiver has to allow you to do, most allow it, but some don’t. You would want to contact your webhost and inquire. There is nothing you can do on the user side to make this possible if your webhost doesn’t provide you with Cron service.

We assume that you are installing/playing around with WordPress 1.5.1, in that case please have the following code in your index.php file.

To start, use a program like “wordpad” on your machine and enter the text below into it. Save it as index.php in a location you can remember, now open your FTP program and connect to our website. Then from the location on your local computer where you saved the index.php, copy it over to your website.

The code is:

<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>


This is necessary to get your website working.

Secondly, .php != .html. Let me explain.

When you create a website and visit it with a browser, your browser talks to the web server and has to start feeding your browser some file. By default, under Apache (a free Unix/Linux web browser) this file is usually index.html (index.htm sometimes).

This could be considered the FRONT DOOR to your website, from there you can use HTML code to direct visitors to other files and so on.

Now let’s move to the PHP age of dynamic web creation. Here your FRONT DOOR takes on a slightly different aura in the form of index.php. Apache now has to instructed to look for this new file to get you going. WordPress is a PHP program that uses the index.php file to get started.

Without a valid index.php, your website will be like a house with no front door.

Other web servers and sever-side scripting languages (PHP is one of these) use different index.<extention> file. You can have index.asp, index.jsp, index.php, index.cfm, and of course the venerable index.html/htm.

Phew..:) hoopefully that wasn’t too much information..

Did you intend your “avatar.jpg” to show up on every post or did that happen after you started playing with the Gravatar’s??

If that is indeed supposed to be your default avatar or your gravatar, then you’ve placed the Gravatar function call in the wrong location.

I don’t see any mention of the gravatar calls in the Comments section. Usually, there is a <img> tag with the class of GRAVATAR.

Please paste your comments.php file into http://pastebin.com so that I can see what it looks like and help you debug this issue.
