In reply to: My weblogs are goneSure, the problem is… hold on, I forgot that I can’t read minds. So, any chance of you providing us some information e.g. the URLs of the blogs, description on what is wrong, error messages, version numbers, what has changed since it was last working…etc?
…and you should probably have posted this question to a more appropriate forum

In reply to: HELP! (Site looks bad in Internet Explorer)“There are geek GIRLS ya know”
But I thought that was only an urban legend… I’m only kidding, some of the smartest techies that I know are girls:-) Anyways, good advice there, but I wouldn’t worry too much about the css validator. Unlike the extremely useful markup validator, I find jigsaw to be more of a pedantic criticiser than a constructive development tool.Monkeypup,

In reply to: deleted sql databasedonjz,
It’s not 100% clear that the database has been “deleted”. The db resides in a totally different area from your web sites file area.If your database tables are still there, then if you reupload the WP files, then you should find that everything is back as it was i.e. all your old data is back. Before we panic, let’s try that first, ok?
“can someone make sure that WP keeps a back-up of the database on the installation directory?”

In reply to: deleted sql databaseAll the data is stored in the database, but how exactly did you “delete” the database?

In reply to: HELP! (Site looks bad in Internet Explorer)“I really wanted my site to look a certain way”
The point is that you need a stable base to work from. It’s a better idea to start from a 3 column theme and start styling the look of it to what you want.As a side note, I like the monkeys:-)

Thanks:-)Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Excluding categories from RSS feedThanks Kafkaesqui, should have thought of that myself:-)
For anyone else with the same issue, what you can also do is make an additional check on the ‘category_name’ get variable so that this category is not excluded from category feeds.

In reply to: Help! Search Engines NOT finding meBe aware that it takes some time for the search engines to pick up new content.
Google has managed to pick up a few of your earlier entries so there doesn’t appear to be a problem besides popularity.
