In reply to: This is SO weirdIf you can’t make the change yourself in your control panel you might want to have your host roll your site back to 4.4.4 and it just may fix your challenge.
Some scripts don’t function well yet with php 5
HTH!

In reply to: PHP 5.2 Fatal Error in cache.phpHi blork,
Glad to hear your problem is resolved. In regards to disabling the cache if you need to, it is here:Dashboard > Options > WP-Cache
Then you can select to either disable or enable the cache. Sometimes when I’ve done changes to my template the only way I could get the change to show up right away was to disable the cache and then later go back in and re-activate it. No harm done by doing so, at least from my understanding. I don’t know if maybe the newest version of WordPress eliminated that challenge or not. I haven’t tested it since upgrading.
I don’t know if that would have helped or not in regards to upgrading to PHP 5.2 but I think I will hold off on upgrading mine for now until more people report having success with it.

In reply to: WordPress 1.5.2 HackedHi David,
My knowledge is pretty limited in regards to this topic, but I’ve learned from other forums when someone has been hacked that their host can sometimes provide information as to how, and or where the vulnerability was. So, they may be able to help you identify where the door was. You may want to start a support ticket with your host by informing them your site was hacked, and ask if they have any information about it. They should know what to look for from their end to possibly identify where the door was.
Other than that hopefully a mod or someone more knowledgeable than myself may be able to instruct you in regards to specifically what to look for within your WordPress database for that previous version, or how to get things closed up securely again since you upgraded.

In reply to: WordPress 1.5.2 HackedHi David,
You may want to check with your host. They may be able to provide you with some information about how you were hacked. Maybe that might help to identify what may still need to be closed up. HTH!

In reply to: PHP 5.2 Fatal Error in cache.phpGood thread to start. I’ve pondered the idea of upgrading my site to php 5.2 but was concerned if it would goof something up.
I wonder if it would make any difference to disable the cache setting in the WordPress dashboard before doing the upgrade? I don’t know much about php upgrading, but it was just a thought that came to mind.

In reply to: Title image not showing in Firefox/ SafariHi fairbrand,
I have two sites on Blogger that I haven’t converted over yet to WordPress. I have the same problem with viewing my header with Firefox. IE, it’s fine, but with Firefox I haven’t been able to view my headers since I upgraded recently to Firefox 2.0 My OS is Windows XP, so your challenge isn’t limited to Mac.
I’ve searched through the Firefox forum and info and tried a few things suggested over there, but to no avail. I’ll be interested to learn if you come up with a resolve since I’m faced with the same challenge.

In reply to: Post disappears in permalinkHi,
I just noticed you stated you are using 2.04 Is there a reason why you have not upgraded to 2.05? You might want to do that first and perhaps your other issues will get resolved. At the very least 2.05 is an important upgrade to resolve some potential security issues. HTH!Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Html errorsThanks Otto42…
for pointing out the correct code is & including the semi-colon. I missed that on correcting my stat counter codes, but now that I added it in correctly I’ve eliminated all but one error in my stat counter code.
Susiej,
Did you get the ‘src’ error corrected? It looks like you have all your Amazon links up and working now.

In reply to: $100 for the person who can help meUgh, that’s not encouraging. Between my two Blogger blogs I have over 200 posts to convert.
Anyone with a fix for the script?

In reply to: Html errorsHi,
I’ve had some of the same mark-up validation problems with links from Amazon, and also with my stat counter code from Dreamhost.Is there not a code to wrap around those to fix the problem so they validate?

In reply to: $100 for the person who can help meHi,
There is an option in the WordPress dashboard which provides the ability to transfer your posts from Blogger over to WordPress. Are you saying that did not work?
Is your blog on Blogger or Blogger Beta? Does that make a difference? I would like to know because I have two Blogger blogs that I want to transfer over as well. I thought it was supposed to be an easy transfer with the option in the WordPress dashboard?

In reply to: Dashboard – Incoming Links ProblemHi Tangerine,
Unfortunately I’m still battling this problem. I’ve sent two emails to Technorati in hopes that maybe the problem is on their end, but they have not responded to either of my emails!
It’s very frustrating because it looks very bad in Technorati when people look at my profile and view what appears to only be links from my own posts! Jeesh, there has to be an easy resolve for this somewhere!
One of the threads here I read from back in July stated it was a Technorati problem, so I wish they would respond to my emails!
In WordPress I just deselected the dashboard option to record my incoming links. If it’s a WordPress problem maybe that will help. The number of my posts is quickly surpassing the number of incoming links from elsewhere so my own posts are the only thing showing up now in my WordPress dashboard!
Anyone here know a resolve? Please? Thank you!

In reply to: wordpress 2.0 altering tags (br and p)Hi,
I’ve had some challenges with the editor as well so I leave mine turned off. You might want to try it and see if you can post without bad codes creeping in.Go to: Dashboard > then select ‘update your profile or password’ from the left column > in ‘your profile’ scroll down to the bottom of the page, and on the left you will see ‘personal options’. If the box next to the words, ‘Use the visual rich editor when writing’ is selected, uncheck the box to deactivate that option.
Then try some posts and see if it fixes the problem. If so you can then go back and re-select it if you prefer, but if it won’t post without inserting bad codes then go back to deactivate it. I hope that helps!
Are you not able to have it re-send you the password, or did he set that up through his own email?
I guess I have to ask, if you are willing to send the person a check for the work he did to that point, then why wouldn’t you be able to get the information from him that you need to access your WordPress account?
If you had set your account up under your own email address and at least know your login name then you can have your password re-sent.
