OK, that’s cool.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Crazy long delay when I click write post/page WP 2.5I ended up giving in and reluctantly converted all my categories to tags, which completely sorted out the problem. I’m still irritated I had to do it, but at least it’s working properly now.
Huh. I just deactivated all plugins and reactivated them again and it seems to be back to the proper behaviour. Should have tried that earlier.
I’m also having the problem where ‘save’ saves and sends me to the preview screen. It’s driving me nuts, because I keep doing it automatically and it catches me out every time.
fwiw, it doesn’t matter whether the post is a new one or I’m editing one that’s already published; and I’m an admin.

In reply to: Crazy long delay when I click write post/page WP 2.5Just because I found it again: this is the person who found that changing categories to tags helped.

If I can’t find another solution soon, I may try it myself, but I’m not thrilled by the prospect.

In reply to: Crazy long delay when I click write post/page WP 2.5I’ve got what I assume is the same problem, though not quite as bad: the little blue box on the right with save/publish buttons appears quickly, and then it takes about 7 seconds for the editing box to appear.
Another blog on a subdomain of the same server is working fine, so that suggests it’s not down to server settings; it happens whether or not I choose to use the visual editor and with all plugins deactivated.
There’s this suggestion, but I don’t think it applies to me:

Somewhere I read a suggestion that having lots of categories (which I do) slowed down 2.5 badly, and I suppose I could convert most of them to tags if I thought it would help, but actually I *like* having them hierarchical, so I’d rather not unless I absolutely have to. And it was working just fine in 2.3.3.
So, I’m out of ideas.

In reply to: Not-so-smart quotesThanks!

In reply to: Not-so-smart quotesOK, here’s an alternative question.
Rather than post things like this to the support forum and just hope someone sees it, how do I file a bug report?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: DIV and Paragraph beheaver in 2.1That doesn’t solve my problem. Although my problem might be a different one, actually. I just tested again. Without the visual editor, if my code is as I posted earlier:
<div> <a>foo</a> <a>foo</a> </div>it renders it as
<div> <a>foo</a><br /> <a>foo</a> </div>which is fine. If the code is:
<div> <a>foo</a> <a>foo</a> </div>it puts
<p>tags in to keep the white space, which is fine too, except that it doesn’t do them properly. It renders it as:<div> <a>foo</a></p> <p><a>foo</a> </div>Note that there are two missing
<p>tags: the first opening tag and the last closing tag. With three or more paragraphs, the middle ones are fine, and the first and last are still wrong.Curiously, without the link tags, it’s still wrong, but slightly differently. It does the closing tag properly but not the opening one:
<div> foo</p> <p>foo</p> </div>I can live with all this because it is displayed properly in all the browsers I’ve tested it on, but it doesn’t validate. Obviously.
So it’s not the visual editor.

In reply to: DIV and Paragraph beheaver in 2.1I think it might be a slightly different bug, but 2.1.1 is certainly producing bad html for me and preventing my site from validating properly.

In reply to: Avoid to display sub categories with WP 2.1Yup, works for me 🙂
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: DIV and Paragraph beheaver in 2.1I upgraded to 2.1.1 and it’s still not working properly.
<div> <a><img></a> <a><img></a> <a><img></a> </div>becomes

In reply to: setting parent categories in WP 2.1If anyone’s interested, after diggin around in the code I worked out that I could fix this by editing wp-admin/edit-category-form.php
Line 38 starts:
<?php wp_dropdown_categories(‘hide_empty=0&name=category_parent& […]
which I changed to
<?php wp_dropdown_categories(‘orderby=name&hide_empty=0&name=category_parent& […]
