@sigarett – I don’t have a solution to your problem with duplicate permalink names but if you want to use WordPress as a serious CMS you should take a look at Pods.

The Pods developers are very active on forums and genuinely care about helping people make Pods work.

I’m a noob too, but I had this problem myself and just figured it out. The post a comment belongs to is determined by the most recent post in the loop. On a normal page, no problem. There’s only 1 post to choose from.

When you run another loop on that page, the comment thinks it belongs to the most recent post it saw, so it attaches itself to that page and that’s where you’re redirected to.

Here’s what you’ve got (if I understand correctly):

• Main Loop (the main one for the page)
• Custom Loop (the custom query you created)
• With “premium” being the last post displayed on the page.
• Comments (which depend on the loop to determine where the comment belongs)

Here’s how I fixed it:

1. Start the loop and define a variable with the page/post ID. i.e. $thisPageId)

   <?php
   if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   $thisPageID = get_the_ID();
   $thisPageID = 'p='.$thisPageID;
   ?>

2. Run your custom loop & close it
3. Run a third loop for that page/post ID before comments

   <?php
   $recent = new wp_query($thisPageID);
   while($recent->have_posts()) :
   $recent->the_post(); ?>

4. Include comments as usual

   <div class="comments">
   <?php comments_template('',true); ?>
   </div>

5. Close the “third” loop

   <?php  endwhile; ?>

As for your issue with the comment posting on all posts and deleting other comments, I’m not sure about that.

Maybe you included comments inside the custom loop somehow? Not sure…

If you run the first loop, run the second loop, close both of them then run the third loop with comments inside, I think it will fix it all for you.

Good luck.

From what I know about the more tag, it can’t be done. Looks like you’d need to write a custom function and put it in the functions.php file.

I’m no pro and tend to hack my way through stuff until I figure it out. This is how I accomplished what I think you’re asking.

If the pages Checkout and Your Account are children of Store, they would appear on the store page.

<?php
$thepostid = $post->ID;
if ($thepostid!=0)
wp_list_pages('title_li=&amp;depth=1&amp;sort_column=menu_order&amp;child_of='.$thepostid);
?>

You might want to look at the page id for store (find the id that shows up when you mouse over the page from the edit pages screen). Replace the line above:
if ($thepostid!=0)
with:
if ($thepostid==<em>X</em>)
where X is the id number of the Store page.

Short Answer – It’s a theme issue.

I’m kind of a newb at this stuff and definitely not a javascript pro, but I like Sons of Suckerfish. There’s a good explanation of how their rollover menu works and how to customize it.

Try temporarily adding this to your stylesheet:

#page-bar li li li {
	float: left;
	margin: -20px 0 0 142px;
	}

That’s how you move it with css & it’s not a real solution, just an example to point you in the right direction. Hope it helps.
