Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Migrating wordpressI was able to succesfully move the site. However I could not find the .htaccess file. I checked with 2 ftps making sure hidden files were showing. Everything seems to be working but I just wanted verify that its ok not to have that. I am not using permalinks I don’t think. Just default behaviour.

In reply to: New to wp but not scriptingSorry for the spamminess. I figured it out. I guessed that my plugin requires the sort to be on ID and not name so i changed it to
<?php wp_list_categories(‘orderby=ID&order=ASC&title_li=&exclude=4’); ?>
and all works fine.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: New to wp but not scriptingI also tried removing the sort_column=menu_order. I think if i remove that plugin and just find how to change the ID of a category I should be good as I can sort by ID.

In reply to: New to wp but not scriptingHmm.. I noticed that my category order does not reflect what I set in the plugin i added to organize categories. My Category Order. Is this because of my changes. If so I can problematically order them if that’s possible.

In reply to: New to wp but not scriptingThanks guys. I got it working how I need. To recap the changes incase I didn’t do it the best way:
index.php(instead of page.php since its the home now and not a page)
changed the top of the file too:
<?php get_header();
if (is_home()) {
query_posts(‘category_name=News’);
}
?>Changed header.php:
<?php wp_list_categories(‘title_li=&sort_column=menu_order&exclude=4’); ?>Really appreciate the quick responses! The overall goal was a way to have news show up on the home page, and nowhere else as well as avoiding any redundant links\navs\pages etc.

In reply to: New to wp but not scriptingOk i see what this is saying. Maybe I have a terminology confusion though. Whats teh difference between a template page and a tag template?
I am thinking I am supposed to do:
if (is_home()) {
query_posts(“category_name=news”);
}and put this in my page.php
Is that right? Then do away with the template I created. If that’s correct, do you know how I can then hide my news category so that home and news are not the same?
Thanks.
