In reply to: My Server Doesn’t Like the Word “From” ??Thanks for verifying I’m not just losing it 😉
I have had it happen with another php app as well, so I think whooami may be on the right track with mod_security or something on the server vs a WP specific problem. I can verify that I have been able to post “from” in other posts…just not that one. And, interesting enough, even if I made a new post with that content, I got the same results…it’s almost like it just didn’t like “from” in that specific context…strange…

Are you only displaying 8 posts on your frontpage? Take a look at the Settings/Reading tab…

In reply to: Afraid update to 2.8.Backup your site and then upgrade. If problems occur, try to fix them. If you can’t fix them, then restore your backup. Look at the following list for some basic things to do to help ensure a smooth upgrade…there is no 100% guarantee on anything…that’s why you backup.

In reply to: Logo Integration into inove Theme headerYou’re welcome…glad you got it fixed.
The root question, is what causes wordpress to ignore a fully populated database and decide that installing wordpress is the right thing to do?
When it can find the database, but can’t find the tables installed in the db, it will prompt you to install. The most common occurrence of this is when someone changes the table prefix in the wp-config.php file but leaves everything else unchanged. Then WP sees the db, sees no tables (although they are there, WP is looking for tables with a different prefix). When WP doesn’t see the tables, then it prompts to install.

In reply to: HELP W/Download pluginSee the second video in the post below for how to manually install a plugin. However, if you have WP 2.7 or later, you can install via the WP admin.
Okay, I’m not a “command line” person, but did you import the dumped tables into the new db?

In reply to: Take off sidebar when clicking on pagesIf you use a theme like iNove, then it already has a page template with no sidebar that you can select for your pages. Otherwise, you will need to create a custom templage, or edit the default page template, to remove the sidebar and expand the width of your content area.

In reply to: Logo Integration into inove Theme headerYou are using the no-sidebar page template on that page and it uses a different header-footer image. It’s called header_footer_1col.jpg. You will need to apply the same changes to that image that you applied to header_footer.jpg.
