In reply to: Total number of words in a postI must not be able to count then. It’s working and that’s good enough for me. Thanks for the help! I’ve looked all afternoon for a plugin to do this one simple thing.

In reply to: Total number of words in a postThanks! That one seems to be working but the word count seems to be a bit off and I’m not sure why. I wonder if it counts the words in the title too and any other words on the page, or just the words in the actual post content?

In reply to: Total number of words in a postHmm. The first plugin didn’t work either. I mean, it works, but it’s still giving me the total words for all posts and I just want the total number of words in a single post.
I’m trying to put the code in my single.php page to pull up the total number of words for each individual post. Unless I’m missing something, there’s no way to do that with this plugin. I’m stumped.

In reply to: Setting limit number for MiniPosts pluginOkay, I’ve posted on the plugin developer’s site and still haven’t gotten any help on this. Can anyone help me figure out how to limite the number of posts that this plugin displays?
I’ll give you a nice shiny quarter! 😉

In reply to: Setting limit number for MiniPosts pluginI should mention that I want to keep all the defaults and just be able to limit the number of posts displayed.
I tried again to figure this out myself but no luck.
Grr! I love and appreciate all the time and effort plugin developers put into helping me make my blog a prettier/niftier place but sometimes I wish they would document a tad bit better for those of us who don’t quite speak the lingo.

In reply to: Adding post date to recent-post pluginWell that plugin took a whole 3 minutes to upload and customize and I like it! Thanks for the info and the help Moshu and Kat!

In reply to: Adding post date to recent-post pluginThanks for the suggestion Kat! I think I will download the other plugin and take a look at it. If it does what I need it to do with minimal tweaking or fuss, then I suppose that’s the better way to go.
Normally I would take your advice and download the code and tweak the current plugin I have but I don’t have the time to do that right now. (Dang 3 year olds and their petty demands anyway!) 😉
Thanks again!

In reply to: Adding post date to recent-post pluginI’ve seen that other plugin but really didn’t want to change as I like the MtDewVirus one. I was thinking there had to be an easy way to modify the code I’m already using to do what I want it to do. I mean, all it has to do is pull the date of the post and display it.

In reply to: Adding post date to recent-post pluginAs an FYI, here’s what I tried to do but I’ve been unable to get the date to pull for each entry. My additions are in bold:
foreach ($posts as $post) {
<b>$post_date = ($post_date);</b>
$post_title = stripslashes($post->post_title);
$permalink = get_permalink($post->ID);
$output .= $before . '<b>. $post_date .</b> <a href="' . $permalink . '" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: ' . htmlspecialchars($post_title, ENT_COMPAT) . '">' . htmlspecialchars($post_title) . '</a>';
if($show_excerpts) {
$post_excerpt = stripslashes($post->post_excerpt);
$output.= '' . $post_excerpt;
}
$output .= $after;Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Using single.php for different comment pageHm. If I uncomment the comment popup code, I get the pop up window and the comments are showing up, yet if I comment that back out, I still get nothing on my individual entry page…

In reply to: Using single.php for different comment pageI guess I’ll go poke around the forums to see if I can find an answer to this. The comments still aren’t showing up and I’m really at a loss.

In reply to: Using single.php for different comment pageWell, I tried editing the comments.php file so it does not contain the same stuff and I tried deleting it entirely. Should I try something different with that file?
