In reply to: How exactly does RSS work?You may want to look into “Email notification” plugins that allow your visitors to enter an email address for your site. Everytime you post an article or (optionally edit one) your Blog will send an email out to everyone the email list.

There are others I’m sure.

In reply to: Blocking access to feeds.technorati.comCheck in /wp-admin/index.php around line 87, you’ll see a fetch_rss(‘http://feeds.technorati.com/cosmos/rss….’); and other fetch_rss() calls a little later. Comment them out and you should be all set.

In reply to: Windows XP doesn’t display my style but Linux does?If you are referencing the blog at http://mikeseney.homelinux.org/wordpress/ then, if you look at the code, you will see that it’s pointing everything to http://ubuntu2/wordpress as opposed to your real website.
Fix that and things might work.

In reply to: Permalinks and TrackbacksThey are not the same thing. 🙂
1. Permalink (short for Permanent Link) is basically a URL to a particular post that can be bookmarked by people for posterity and got to as long as your website doesn’t go down.
It would sure be easy to remember and to get to a post with the URL of: website.com/archives/04/08/2005/My-lovely-post, rather than website.com/?p=42 where 42 is the post ID. As you enter your posts, the title of the post becomes the post-slug and that inturn ends up on the URL.
Pingbacks and Trackbacks _use_ your permalink’s to a particular post to do their magic. They essentially allow other people to reference your articles on their blogs.
So in the case of Trackback, you could write an entry on your blog, I could write a “reply” on my blog and trackback to your entry. You will see in your comments on the entry that I’ve tracked back and as such you can use that to get to my reply on my blog.
Pingback is not sending any content around, just telling each others blog that there is some mutual content.
For your and my sanities sake, let’s just assume that Pingbacks and Trackbacks are essentially the same. 🙂

In reply to: Any Success with SearchNow?I got this script working without any issues. What exactly are your problems? Perhaps I can help.
It might involve some appropriate hacking of WP files because it’s a generic JS script.

In reply to: related entries plugin?You could pretty much add it wherever you wanted to show related articles.
It probably makes most sense to add it “single.php” for you theme.

In reply to: Custom page urls?What is your permalinks structure? That’s where /category/ is usually coming from.

In reply to: Custom page urls?Well that depends on your server structure I guess. Some hosts allow you to have multiple fully-hosted domain within a single account, in that case WP will be playing with the .htaccess that pertains to the domain on which it is installed.

In reply to: Custom page urls?Or have WP do it for you. 🙂
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Custom page urls?Enable permalinks on your site and you will be able to access your pages as; site.com/<page-slug>. That makes it eaiser to find for your visitors than site.com/7 or site.com/9..
