 * It seems to be admin issue, not updating that field when saved.

 * ok, so I thought I would add another issue to this one.
 * Category Search: In the admin there is ‘Search Categories’ however it only searches
   Top categories. When I try to search for a Sub-Category I get 0 results, although
   I know the category is there! I tested this by adding a Main Category and then
   searching for it and it appear. The then moved the category to a sub category
   and searched again. The second time it did not appear.

 * Sorted….. that one worked….. It would be good to have the ‘OPTION’ though to 
   either use the config above or create new in current directory.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks for the info, but it is actually cause by the word press installation.
   I know this as I have the following:
 * domain1.com/forum/
 * and when I goto domain2.com/forum it does not revert to domain1, but just domain2.
   com does goto domain1.com

 * ok, I am moving forward with my playing…….
 * I have removed the following:
 * {
    $content = substr(strip_tags($content), 0, 200) . “…”;
 *  }
 * Now, homepage shows the image from the post. However How do I now restrict the
   amount of text, as it is displaying the whole post on the hompage and not just
   a snippet.
 * So lets say I want to show 100 words on the homepage for the post. What do I 
   need to add to the code for this to happen?
 * Thanks

 * Further to my last, this is the complete snipet used to get the content.
 * <?php
    $content = get_the_content(‘Continued »’); if (strlen($content) > 200 &&!
   eregi(“Continued &raquo”, $content)) { $content = substr(strip_tags($content),
   0, 200) . “…”; } $i++; ?>
