In reply to: How to separate link style to images? don’t need the underline!if ‘img a’ works, that’d be a bit of a css coup… given that links aren’t inside image tags.
interesting.

In reply to: 404 Problemcould have told you that if you’d linked your site, pee 😉
I’m still quite surprised that permalink structure works, that’s actually pretty cool for those concerned that date-based permalinks create deep directories.

In reply to: 404 ProblemI’m surprised that works when a *valid* URL is selected. Without any delimiters between the year-month-day, I’m surprised wordpress can work out what the hell it’s supposed to be doing.
would you consider linking to your site, poe, so we can see this behaviour for ourselves?
I’m mainly curious to try removing the postname from a valid link and seeing what happens.
if you don’t want to use delimiters, like not even dots, then why use dates at all? set your permalink to something like /articles/%postname%

In reply to: Putting Captions On Imageswell, it depends on your specific requirements… if you don’t mind captions just appearing after your page loads, then you can do as I’ve done and use JavaScript DOM to turn alt attributes into captions.
this can be done on the server-side if you like, but I’ve chosen to do it in javascript so that the client-side can choose whether they prefer alt tags or not (for example, browsers for the blind might prefer to maintain the alt attributes).
you can see an example of this on one of my image-laden posts.
if you’re interested in doing it this way, I’ll post a how-to.

In reply to: 404 Problempermalinks customised in any particular way? or even one of the presets makes this happen?
consider letting wordpress create it’s own htaccess file, which you can modify later, once everything works, if you need to.

In reply to: Sub-Category templates not working when no /category/ base slug used/. is not the right way to go about this, there are plugins which can remove the category base, but they require you to have a static feature in your permalink slugs… like prefix-%postname%, or %postname%.html for instance, so that the system can tell the difference between posts and categories.
I will warn you though, I’ve experimented with %category%/%postname% quite heavily, and I can tell you that any pages listing multiple posts will be *MUCH* higher in queries, because each time the permalink is called, wordpress will have to query the database to trickle-down the parent/child relationship between categories in order to generate the permalink.
this can really overload your site if you’re not careful.
ultimately? not worth it. You can use a really short category base to get around most issues, and if you don’t like date based permalinks, then set your structure to /articles/%postname% – which allows you to make an /articles/ page to lay out all your categories in a sitemap format.

In reply to: How to separate link style to images? don’t need the underline!I can’t tell you how to do it without borders, but I can tell you to stop making your neurosis everyone else’s problem.
it’s just *not* that important.
… and if the style of underline is that important to you, the code’s right there, here’s a shovel.

In reply to: mod rewrite problemyou using query_posts in your index page?
if so make sure you’re doing something like:
query_posts($query_string.’&cat=-1,-2′);
the query string is important
