In reply to: Upgraded to 3.2 Visual editor buttons missingI have turned off all my plugins and the problem remains. I only have a few plugins by very reputable plugin developers. I doubt this is a plugin problem. My intuition tells me it is a 3.2 issue.
Hopefully some WP developers are following this issue.
And by the way I really like 3.2, the new admin screens, etc. And now if this is a bug I know it will be fixed. So. thanks to the developers.

In reply to: Upgraded to 3.2 Visual editor buttons missingThanks esmi. I was reading 5.2.1.2 and not 5.2.12. Too many dots to keep track of.
So. Any ideas? Anyone?
The Visual Editor for WP 3.2 is working on my local dev site with PHP 5.2.9 and mysql 5.0.77 but not on the remote site. Mysterious.
This is kind of problem and I hope there is a resolution to it soon.
Thanks.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Upgraded to 3.2 Visual editor buttons missingI am having the same problem. I am using Joyent as a host and they are using PHP Version 5.2.12.
Does this mean I will have to go back to using 3.1.4 of WordPress? Unless Joyent updates?

In reply to: Dev -> Staging -> Production database syncing?I have found this very frustrating as well. It seems like a flaw that wordpress writes the full url for images, etc. into the database, instead of a path relative to the root.
Here are a couple of sites that suggest ways of syncing local and remote sites. (I am still looking for something better.)

In reply to: Custom Meta Boxes with QuicktagsI found a workaround for this. Not necessarily the best way.
I downloaded quicktags from Alex King.
http://alexking.org/projects/js-quicktagsI gave the file a different name. Changed the name of the functions.
Then called it in my “metabox” function like so:
echo ' <script type="text/javascript">dw_edToolbar("' . $textarea_id . '")</script>';Where “$textarea_id” is the name of the particular custom meta box.
It worked. A little funky since I am calling another script.
I called the script in functions.php like so:
add_action('admin_print_scripts', 'dw_quicktags'); function dw_quicktags() { wp_enqueue_script( 'dw_quicktags', '/wp-content/themes/lesson_plans/js/dw_quicktags.js' ); }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Custom Taxonomies with Pagination getting 404, Page Not FoundIt turns out that I needed to set posts per page to 12 on the Settings -> Reading page in WP admin. I probably did not need the custom query, in that case either. Hope this helps someone.

In reply to: Display caption with the_post_thumbnailI got this to work on my site. You need to do a “foreach” to access items from the array created by get_posts(). And I used slightly different arguments in the get_posts(). So the code should be:
<?php $thumb_id = get_post_thumbnail_id($post->id); $args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'post_status' => null, 'post_parent' => $post->ID, 'include' => $thumb_id ); $thumb_images = get_posts($args); foreach ($thumb_images as $thumb_image) { echo $thumb_image->post_excerpt; } ?>I hope this helps.

In reply to: Firefox IssueI have had this problem in Firefox as well too. (I am using Firefox 3.5). Thumbnails are occasionally bumped to another row. It has something to do with the CSS and the spacing of the thumbnail images. It looks to me like FF is interpreting the width around the images differently on certain occasions. It is one of those mysterious problems that only occur some of the time. I plan to look into it more thoroughly soon and hope to figure it out and will get back when and if I do.
http://www.davidhumphreynyc.com is the example.
thanks

In reply to: WPfolio category display issuesI found that the last image uploaded was the one that showed up on the category table of contents page.
If the incorrect image showed up on the category page, I would first delete it and then re-upload it and add it to the gallery again, so that it would be the last uploaded. And then it showed up on the category page. (I could be wrong about this, but it worked for me.)
I also changed the dates of posts so that they would show up on the category page in the correct order.
