I cannot see how the categories have any relevance. The updates are done on a per post basis without referencevto categories at all. * To be fair to the authors, I cannot see that they should support a user who is not paying, but equally, there is no point me paying for something that in principle is not going to work. * Which is why I come back again to generalising the question. If te approach taken by wpallimport is a standard and obvious way then moving to a different plug in is likely to have the same difficulty. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Too many postst](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/too-many-postst/) * Thread Starter [dslippy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dslippy/) * (@dslippy) * [4 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/too-many-postst/#post-15048481) * Thank you: wp all import * I suspect however that it is a matter of principle. If I am right then a similar aapproach is liable to be taken by other plugins tackling the same task. * I cannot imagine someone wanting to redo an entire plugin just for me. It may be that I need an entirely different approach. To get a starting point I need to understand better where the problem may be. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Yoast SEO - Advanced SEO with real-time guidance and built-in AI] Notice of changed URL](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/notice-of-changed-url/) * Thread Starter [dslippy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dslippy/) * (@dslippy) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/notice-of-changed-url/#post-9585283) * I confirm that I have double checked the update file links and the post links and cannot identify any change – but I still go the messages * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks error using post name?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-error-using-post-name/) * Thread Starter [dslippy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dslippy/) * (@dslippy) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-error-using-post-name/#post-8515474) * Again, then. * I have repeated the exercise with simple posts, posting the name, and get consistent errors when I use just the wordpress software itself. * Where the post title includes an unescaped ampersand followed by a later semicolon, the permalink created excludes all text between the said two characters. * Any offers? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks error using post name?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-error-using-post-name/) * Thread Starter [dslippy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dslippy/) * (@dslippy) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-error-using-post-name/#post-8482785) * Retract this a bit. * I have tried this again with only variable results – sometimes it goes wrong and sometimes not.

It is the ‘other’ I need to consider. * I have an existing site but it has to move and to move on. It is all custom built code, and I have little desire to re-invent the wheel a second time. * Is there an obvious wordpress site with similar or substantially more postings? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Creating Forms with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/creating-forms-with-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [dslippy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dslippy/) * (@dslippy) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/creating-forms-with-wordpress/#post-1397384) * Thank you. * I had already checked that it looked good and mentioned allowing Ajax (I’ll learn anything), but there is nothing that I have found in the documentation to suggest that or how it actually might be used. * I suppose I am asking how to integrate within WP a system where a form is created( easy-ish) which transmits the information collect to an external/internal php script which does the various calculations (easy) and returns the resulting values to a page within a wordpress system? It is possibly the last bit which is the real issue. * I am tearing my hair out when trying to find my way around the WP documentation. * I do appreciate that I have to do nearly all of this myself, but a pointer to somewhere which explains the basics would give me something to go on.
