In reply to: Spam flood after upgrate to 2.9.2This isn’t the point though. I had no akismet prior to the upgrade, and it can’t explain why these comments don’t send an email while valid ones do.
I tried Akismet – it worked but sometimes pulled the whole site down with PHP out of memory errors 🙁

In reply to: nofollow not added to commenter’s URLThe issue has been resolved – the problem was with a plugin (Gravatar) that did its own filtering on the author’s URL in comments.

In reply to: Upgrade to 2.6.2 – non-ascii chars messed upThanks

In reply to: Upgrade to 2.6.2 – non-ascii chars messed upI kept the old wp-config, but copied all the new stuff from the new one (as the upgrade manual suggested), the secret keys and these two lines.

In reply to: Upgrade to 2.6.2 – non-ascii chars messed upmoshu,
It does help, thanks.
Any idea why this has to be done, and why these lines appear in the wp-config.php of 2.6.2 (they weren’t in 2.2)Is my encoding configuration correct w/o them ?

In reply to: DB password plaintextHowever, what’s the harm in keeping it as a hash ? This way I can protect the password of the database from the people who hacked into the server, or the host company that hosts my DB, for that matter.
Isn’t this just better in all senses ?

In reply to: URL Translation in WP codeThe end result is to learn, really. I want to understand the whole process of going from the URL of some post to the post itself. I understand most of the stages already, but something is still missing.
When I try to access the URL:
myblog.com/2006/11/16/some-post/
I know that mod_rewrite redirects it to index.php/2006/11/16/some-post
I also know that the end result is comes from “single.php” . But I want to understand how WP knows to send it to single.php and how it knows which post to pull from the database.
Thanks in advance

In reply to: Fooling is_archive()This works, in fact I found another solution a couple of hours ago:
$wp_query->is_page = true;
I was just hoping there would be a cleaner way :-/

In reply to: Security of wp-config.phpI can’t browse to it, but this is the most trivial option. I wonder what prevents more experienced crackers than me to access it ? Do they have to know my password or can it be overcome somehow ?
