In reply to: Can’t create categoryCore files are everything except what’s in your wp-content folder (and your wp-config.php file)
After I installed 2.1, the first problem I had was not being able to add categories.
So I re-downloaded everything and re-uploaded all core files to my server… worked for me.

In reply to: Advice? Multiple Blogs on a WebsiteRunning multiple blogs on one site is easy if you can learn some htaccess rewrites.
For example:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.site1\.net$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site1\.net$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site1/.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)? /site1/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.site2\.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site2\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site2/.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)? /site2/$1 [L]As for how to set up WordPress to take advantage of this, see http://www.clearpointsystems.com/ewpi.php

In reply to: Can’t create categoryI had the same problem. I’m not sure why, but after I replaced all the core files with a newly downloaded batch, it began working.
This was not a re-install – I simply uploaded all new core files to my install directory on the server.

In reply to: Newspaper siteOverall, it looks great. Very nice, professional looking.
Constructive criticism:
1) The color (light blue) of the links in the Recent Headlines section (and other places) is too weak for the page which otherwise has a strong look and feel.
2) The page fails validation:
This page is not Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict!3) IE7 is putting both x any y scrollbars on your
<div class="half">sections, which looks really bad. Firefox seems to scale the divs okay, however.4) The page size is getting big at 410kb, though still within reason. You might consider doing some image processing to reduce the size of your JPEGs.
Again, the design is outstanding, but could use some attention to the above issues, IMHO.

In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netOnce I discovered Conditional Comments I just started using a separate stylesheet for IE6. That’s how I deal with it, anyway.
IE7 seems to behave pretty well.
Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netThanks.
For some reason, I had to use:
margin-bottom:-3px;in the #header div for IE6 — or the highlight for the top item in the nav menu would show a gap where it buts up against the bottom of the header (works fine in IE7 and Firefox).
Even stranger is that I have that same top nav item in wp-login.php (for returning to the Home Page) but IE6 does not require the special treatment on this page.
IE6: the bane of web development.

In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netOne more time…

I decided to go with an image background for the header. Adds about 100k to the page size, but hey, everyone’s got broadband now, right?
Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netCool.
I think these subtle shades are always going to vary from display to display.
What do you think about the background of the post titles?
They’re supposed to be a light olive color.
Thanks again for the feedback!

In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netI just changed it from #D1CAC2 to #C7C4BA

In reply to: BiblicalFoundations.netThanks for your comment.
The header graphic (and everything above the books) is supposed to be tan – at least it looks tan on my display 🙂
I’ll try something else… less red maybe…
Thanks for the tip.

In reply to: next_posts_link Templage Tag fails with .htaccess rewriteThere must be some way to hardcode the correct path rather than using the return value of the function.
Any suggestions on how to do this?

In reply to: next_posts_link Templage Tag fails with .htaccess rewriteIs anyone familiar with that get_pagenum_link() function?
I miss my next_posts_link Template Tag…
