In reply to: Howto change category that digg.com posts are posted intoPlease don’t bump especially when you haven’t even waited a day before bumping twice. By bumping, as well as selfishly pushing other people’s queries down, you’ve also made it less likely to get a response as many of us scan the forum for threads with 1 reply.
Now on my blog, I’ve changed the default post category via Options>Writing >Default Post Category. Now when I go in to post via WP, this category is correctly selected.
However, if you post from outside of WP i.e. via another client, you may hit the problem described in this thread which also contains a fix. This other thread may also be of help.

In reply to: Show 1 category posts on main pageIf you don’t want a particular category to show on the main page, what you can do is open up the index.php file in your blog root (not the theme’s index.php) and add the $cat=-2 before require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
2 is the category id of the category that you don’t want to show up (i.e. your ‘archive’ category).

In reply to: CSS OpacityLooks like it’s not really feasible in a practical way then… Thanks Khaled for the info.

In reply to: Gespaa Sidebar appearing at bottom of the page on indexHi Chris,
The problem is with this post
You have an unclosed div. Just add a </div> to it and you should find the problem solved i.e.
<div style="text-align: left;"><img width="200" vspace="2" hspace="2" height="200" border="2" align="right" alt="Picture of Chris Keenan" src="http://blog.course-notes.org/wp-images/chriskeenan.jpg" /></div>Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: CSS OpacityKhaled,
The following link should help you on your way.
Update: That link actually doesn’t solve your problem as I misread your question. Back to the drawing board.

In reply to: Full access to drafts?!>> “Does a logged in user of level 1 have the ability to read a draft of a level 9 ?”
> “No.”
I guess that’ll mean that we can lower the severity of this bug down to a “cosmetic issue”.Thanks again for the info.

In reply to: Full access to drafts?!Ahhh, thanks Falo, you’re right. For me that effectively mitigates the problem but probably not for others.
Wish you replied earlier though before I started converting all my drafts into notes:-)

In reply to: Full access to drafts?!Thanks Podz.
I use drafts in the same way as Emanon. Thus, to me, this seems to be a pretty major bug and I’m glad that the guys are aware of it.

In reply to: WordPress allowing spyware to be installed?IE (and anything that relies on IE for it’s HTML rendering engine) is sadly extremely vulnerable to various nastiness.
Masquarade is right on all accounts. Nothing WP related is installing spyware. The other 3 scenarios pointed are all highly likely sources of infection.

In reply to: Looking for a web hostThe coupon is for Dreamhost’s 7 year anniversary (hence no idea when it will expire) and the special discount is only for the first year.
However, AFAIK, there’s no reason why you cannot transfer away at a later date if you so desire.

In reply to: Looking for a web hostWell, you can get hosting at Dreamhost for $9 for the whole year i.e. 75 cents a month.

In reply to: sticky/adhesive not needed?There are ways of producing the same effect without plugins but they involve a bit of advanced knowledge. Using an adhesive/sticky plugin is probably the best option unless you have have an unusual requirement.

In reply to: Stylesheet isn’t formattedIs this program riddled with Spyware?
Nope. I suspect that this is more likely down to an IE exploit.Simply viewing a webpage in an unsecured/non up-to-date version of IE can open you up to various nastiness.
