Change ORDER BY ID $limits to ORDER BY ID $limits desc.

“I’m sorry for bumping but a lot of questions go unanswered in this forum.”

And by bumping, you knock off other people’s post for the sake of your own which hurts their queries. If everyone bumps without regards to others, everybody loses.

The css for handling the padding of the sidebar is contained within #sidebar e.g. you can change it as thus:
#sidebar {
padding: 0 57px 30px 0px;
}

Try playing around with that until you find something to your likeing and in future, try to be more considerate.

“Hey Admin, Please Patch Ur Server. [x] *** Using : FreeBSD cgi1 4.10-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE #0”

The above message suggests it is a server vulnerability and not WP; you’ll need to get in contact with your webhost and ask them to investigate further.

MySQL themselves have detailed information on the bug and how to resolve it. It’s not a WP issue.

It is a filesystem issue. Whilst, they may have free space on the server, they need to check the filesystem in which MySQL uses.

Out of interest, who are your webhosts?

Try something like the following (Be sure to substitute the category_id’s for the one’s that you’re using):

query_posts('cat=3');
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
the_title();
endwhile;
endif;
//now run a new query
query_posts('cat=5');
//as $wp_query is reinitialised, let's run the_loop
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
the_title();
endwhile;
endif;

This is a minor modification of the technique described in this article.

“

Other platform providers have ‘presales’ forums for questions like mine.

This is a well-done, and professional application. Too bad the ‘support team'(if, in fact, you’re on the support team) is impatient and rude.”

Like RustIndy said, this is a volunteer forum. We’re all keen users of WP and devote our time and knowledge freely as a means to help the community.

WP is an open-source product (hence the concept of a presales forum is incongruous. The best way to answer your questions and get a feel for the product is to download it and try it. Have a play around with it. It’s free (both as in beer and speech).

With regards to the issue posed in this thread, the problem, strictly speaking, is not WP related but a CSS/HTML issue i.e. general web development stuff.
