In reply to: Enough new features!As long as there are no security issues, you don’t have to upgrade. Even if no new features were added, there would still be security updates. Bottom line….regardless of what (good) software you use, you will need to upgrade from time to time…and with the auto-upgrade feature now, it really doesn’t get much easier.

In reply to: How do I make my header the image I made?I don’t see a header image…just a white background.

In reply to: Get my header to line up with backgroundOkay, I see…it’s off by a pixel or so. For some reason, you have the header styling entered a couple different times in your style.css…you should clean that up, but a quick fix may be to find the following around line 252 of your style.css:
#header { background-color:#73A0C5; height:200px; margin:0 0 0 1px; padding:0; width:758px; }and delete the margin line so it looks like this:
#header { background-color:#73A0C5; height:200px; padding:0; width:758px; }Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: MS FrontpageWhile I agree, FileZilla is a better (pure) FTP program, FrontPage is a pretty darn good program (even though it’s no longer being developed) and it can serve as a good FTP program even on a server without FrontPage extensions. I keep a copy on my computers and use it for all kinds of things from basic html editing to searching entire directories (WP directories, for example) to strip out code inserted by hackers.
My suggestion…if you have a copy and you are familiar with it’s use, don’t throw it away…it can come in very handy at times.

In reply to: Problem hiding text in custom headerFind the following in the theme style.css:
div#header div.main a { font-size:25px; text-decoration:none; }and add a line so it looks like this:
div#header div.main a { font-size:25px; text-decoration:none; display:none; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Hacked? Links are brokenI would suggest dumping your db and searching it. Typically, this code will be exactly the same, so once you find one instance of it, you can do a search/replace to clean it, then drop your original tables and import your cleaned db. Of course, this will not fix the problem that allowed this in the first place, but it should get you an operational blog back.

In reply to: 7000 posts = 1 blog or more ?Sure…I see no reason (given you have a good enough server) that you couldn’t have 15 million posts…your limit is the number of records a mysql db table can hold…I don’t know the exact number (not sure there even is an exact number), but it’s a “heck of a lot”.
Maybe some mysql guru (which I’m not one) can shed more light on this for you…

In reply to: Hacked? Links are brokenHummm…I’ve typically seen that in the source code, but it looks like yours may be in the database. Have you looked in wp-config.php to make sure it’s clean?

In reply to: 7000 posts = 1 blog or more ?WordPress isn’t the limiting factor for how many posts you can have. 7,000 posts for a mysql database is nothing…if you run into issues it will more than likely be server and/or host issues…things like the max db size your hosts will allow…for example, some limit each db to 100mb.

In reply to: No “Edit” or “New” Post pages.You don’t give us much to go on. So you installed a new instance of WP…how did you get the “backed up posts” in this new install? Was the new install working beforeyou added added the backup?
Finally, do you still have the original database? If so, then you should still have all your posts and you can recover the lost 8 months.
