In reply to: Edit Roles and CapabilitiesI would also like to know how to modify the capabilities of a given role.
The wp_usermeta table has two relevant columns – namely wp_user_level which is set to value of between 1 and 10 (10 being administrator role) and also wp_capabilities which I imagine controls the individual capabilities of the user, but I am not sure on how it does so. I’ll continue to investigate but any clarification or further info would be greatly appreciated.Forum: Installing WordPress

In reply to: Theme editor does not show all template filesGreat tip, koenoezsi!
Many thanks, it works fine now. So easy when you know how!Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Theme editor does not show all template filesYes, it’s strange. I created a new template (by copying page.php to e.g. newtemp.php and then editing it to include the template name at the top) and then created a page with that template. But the theme editor does not list the new template.
I have looked at the Theme Editor source code (ie the generated HTML) and my new template file is in the list as the link (ie newtemp.php) but with no text, which is why it doesn’t appear.
Anybody know why ? My page works fine and of course I can edit my new template outside WP, but it would be nice if it’s accessible through the theme editor.
(This whole behaviour is intermittent – I created a new template the other day and everything worked fine, but I can’t see what I did differently!)Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Loop compatibilityOK, thanks. I guess I want to avoid modifying the loop in all the php files if possible. So the question is, will the old-style PHP loop code work with WP 2.1?

In reply to: Static home page feature in v 2.1Many thanks HandySolo & Mike et al – I mistakenly thought the document was about the new feature , not how it was done before!
Yes I’ll pick a method.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Static home page feature in v 2.1Thanks drmike. I followed the instructions at http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page and it says create the static page in root directory with a text editor, not via Dashboard.

In reply to: Static home page feature in v 2.1Thanks for the reply. I don’t want WordPress to act as my Home page. I am trying to have a static Home Page with no posts, no loop – just my own design with a link to the blog.
The new 2.1 feature would seem to be suitable, but I can’t get it to work.
