Please note, using FTP is not a wordpress function. This is a basic skill you should have if you want to play around with websites.

Please read the instructions… if you have further trouble, consult the emails your host sent you when you signed up with them.

if you no longer have those emails, contact your host to have them re-issued.

nobody can help you with specific steps here, as it depends entirely on your host and usernames/passwords you (and only you) should be fully aware of.

Once you’ve connected to your server, simply rename or delete the file(s) belonging to the plugin. If your next question is “what files?” or “what are files?” I suggest you have someone physically close to you help you do this (and teach you about these things).

…

I’d like to know how you got the plugin up there in the first place, if you can’t use FTP though.

I’ve seen this happen a few times to people, with no solution that I’m aware of.

Contact your host and ask them if they changed anything overnight.

Also, you’re using a mighty old version of wordpress there… consider at least upgrading to the latest in the 2.0 branch here: http://wordpress.org/download/legacy/ (for security reasons)

looks like you didn’t even read your own post.

If you spent as much time reading about wordpress or movable type as you have arguing with me about it, you might have made your decision by now.

Your thread will get the attention it deserves. Maybe one day you’ll see I really was trying to help you.

that’s a solution to *a* problem, but not *this* problem.

securing the wp-admin folder and renaming it are not the same thing. It should be possible to do BOTH.

if you can post the code, you can find it.

look in your theme’s .php files (start with the most logical-sounding ones first, and use your text-editor’s find feature to find ‘wp_list_pages’

then read the link moshu posted… follow the instructions to use the correct page order.

when you’re done doing that, you’ll have learned somthing and then you won’t be quite as new at this, right?

… give a man a fish… teach a man to fish… you’ve heard it all before.

“I’m in the process of comparing both Movable Type and WordPress.”

Awesome. Let us know when you’re done so we can read your comprehensive breakdown and comparison.

“I am curious to hear what you guys/gals have to say in defense of WP.”

This is what I like to call ‘flamebait’ WordPress doesn’t need defending and neither does Movable Type. There is a comprehensive list of features available at either website, and beyond that, they’re both easy enough to install and try out.

Don’t feed the trolls and incite the zealots to riot. Obviously we’re all wordpress users here, so we’ve made our own choice. Nothing we can say will actually convince you anyway, so why not just go convince yourself?

Questions like “what’s better IE or Firefox or Safari or Opera” and “is strawberry or chocolate the superior flavour” are all religious questions not tolerated by most forums. I’m not a member of the administration here, but I’d like to think I’m performing a community service by telling you that there’s no such thing as ‘better’

… only ‘better for YOU’.

upgrade.
