In reply to: Strange new error “appropriate representation”?Whoa. I just went and tested and mine is working now, too.
That’s too bizarre…Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Strange new error “appropriate representation”?OK, from doing some testing, the problem seems to have something to do with html tags in posts. If I strip out all tags it works — clearly not a viable solution for a blog.
Anyone have any ideas? FWIW I’m with oneworldhosting.comForum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: CSS glitch/misunderstandingActually, at the risk of beating a dead horse, upon further investigation, its an issue with my laptop’s display. The color gets lighter as I move it down on the screen. I’ll have to keep an eye on that or it’ll cause me huge grief.

In reply to: CSS glitch/misunderstandingOK, color me extremely embarassed.
I was already to say you’re both crazy! 🙂 Then I opened two browser windows, scrolled on to the bottom and stacked them on top of each other and sure enough, same color.
Sheesh, that’s freaky.
And I’m very sorry to have wasted everyone’s time.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: problem with categoriesINSERT INTO wp_categories (cat_ID, cat_name, category_nicename, category_description, category_parent) VALUES (‘0’, ‘Design’, ‘design’, ”, )
It looks like the last value is getting lost. 5 fields specified and only 4 values included doesn’t seem right to me.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Advice on moving data from b2 to wpThanks LL! My host already has phpmyadmin installed and I’d already done dumps of my data, so I’ve got that covered. I only get one database, though, so have the b2_ tables and the wp_ tables in the same database.
I only have 1 user (me) and 4 categories, and I’ve tweaked the settings in WP already.
It sounds like I can just import the b2posts into wp_posts, then? I think I’ll try doing this on a local copy of WP and see what happens… I’ve never used MySQL before…we use Oracle at work (and sometimes SQL Server) so I’m ok with SQL syntax, but not the specific MySQL dialect. And I’m certainly no DBA! 🙂
I’ll let you know how it all works out, and again, than you for the detailed reply. Its much appreciated.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: slew of errors with the new wpI’ve installed WP on a couple machines in the past fews days — my laptop for testing (Mac OS X) and my webhost, which is some linux distro, I believe. In both instances I got a bunch of SQL Errors, but in both cases everything seems to work ok.
That said, they *are* alarming to encounter and if one of the developers has a change to change the script so it informs the user that they can be safely ignored (if that is indeed the case) or can somehow hide the messages, it’d probably ease the minds of a lot of new users. 🙂
