In reply to: What to edit for popup comments TITLEHi there,
I am unable to locate comments-popup.php, which is confusing as hell. I know I’ve seen it before, and it wasn’t particularly buried. What directory is it supposed to be in?Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Reordering of Links CategoriesOK, I figured out a way to do it:
Go to your index.php file in the folder of whichever theme you are using.
Find the <?php get_links_list(); ?>
In the (), list the category id numbers in the order you want them displayed, separated by commas, with no spaces. Like so:
<?php get_links_list(25,26,27,28,29); ?>

In reply to: Link Categories and positioning.One thing I discovered is this:
Go to your index.php file in the folder of whichever theme you are using.
Find the <?php get_links_list(); ?>
In the (), list the category id numbers in the order you want them displayed, separated by commas, with no spaces. Like so:
<?php get_links_list(25,26,27,28,29); ?>

In reply to: Reordering of Links Categorieshrmmm….reordering the categories in the database doesn’t do any good…

In reply to: Reordering of Links CategoriesI agree. I’m glad to know that I’m not just missing something obvious though! I’ve been poking around for a couple of hours trying to figure it out.

In reply to: Dead set weird. No other way to describe.OK, my problem was a lack of the position: absolute; attribute in the #content id. drzax, if you’re still checking this thread, maybe that would be a direct solution to your problem if you made the same omission as me.
Now I just need to figure out once and for all why some divs interact with the edges of the page, and some interact with the other divs on the page. This has been bugging me for months…it makes the gaps between the boxes inconsistent between IE and Firefox. But at least you can see everything now!

In reply to: Dead set weird. No other way to describe.Hi there,
I have a somewhat related problem.
For some reason Internet Explorer seems to treat my menu as though it is within the <div id=”content”> tag. My site displays fine in Firefox, though.
The url is http://www.ickyfoot.com
And, since you can’t see them, here are the two related css styles:
#content {
font: Verdana;
border: 1px solid #ffcc33;
padding: 5px;
margin-left: 185px;
width: 510px;
}#menu {
background: #342c55;
margin-top: 130px;
margin-left: 0px;
letter-spacing: 0.1em;
position: absolute;
padding-top: 8px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
top: 0px;
width: 170px;
}The menu ends up right on top of the content area, obscuring the far left of my top posts in IE.
I tried setting a negative margin-left in the #menu attribute, which made it look better in IE, but it placed the menu off the screen in Firefox.
Any insight on how to obtain a consistent display is greatly appreciated!

In reply to: Do I have a security issue?Excellent…I got it with the first option. Something I read yesterday made me think it wasn’t the fix for my problem, but my posts are finally unaccompanied by an advertisement for online poker 😉
Thanks!

If noone has, is there another way to eliminate “pre-submitted” comments?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Do I have a security issue?Has anyone run this SQL query to eliminate pre-post comments:
DELETE wp_comments FROM wp_comments C LEFT JOIN wp_posts P ON C.comment_post_ID = P.ID WHERE P.ID IS NULL
???
How often does it cause irreperable damage?

In reply to: Error establishing a database connection!Yeah, I’m pretty much 100% sure my db_name is correct. ickyfoot is my user name, wrdp1 is the name the database was given when I first installed wordpress earlier this year. I’m totally baffled…
