 * I agree. It’s completely ridiculous. Why would anyone want a child category listed
   above the parent? It’s supposed to be helpful if you have alot of categories 
   but to me, more categories would make it even MORE confusing. You wouldn’t be
   able to remember WHERE the post was filed.

 * My mistake. Did some more reading and realized this was a “feature” …though I
   must say it’s a very odd one. Fixed with the “**Category Checklist Tree**” plugin.
   Install this plugin and the category hierarchy will display as it should.

 * Exact same problem here with WordPress 3.12. Definitely looks like a bug.

 * Thanks for the help Otto. The part that is really confusing me is that the **
   fb_connect_user** variable never seems to get set to “true”, even when I am logged
   in.
 * I put `document.write(fb_connect_user);` in the footer of the page just above
   the </body> tag. The value is always “false”, whether I’m logged in via Facebook
   or not.

 * I’m using the jquery validate function in the arras theme:
 *     ```
       jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
   
       $('.multi-sidebar').tabs();
   
       <?php if (!function_exists('pixopoint_menu')) : ?>
       $('.sf-menu').superfish({autoArrows: true, speed: 'fast', dropShadows: 'true'});
       <?php endif ?>
   
       <?php if (is_singular()) : ?>
   
       $('#commentform').validate()
   
       <?php endif ?>
   
       <?php do_action('arras_custom_scripts') ?>
   
       });
       ```
   
 * in the head of the page.
 * The problem I’m finding is that when I check the fb_connect_user value, it only
   shows up when I place the check below the footer(ie below the SFC comments code.
 * Also the fb_connect_user variable always returns “false”, even when I’m logged
   in via Facebook.

 * Yeah, I get that Otto 😉
 * My point was- it might be nice to be able to use SFC Comments AND the JS validation
   as well 🙂
 * I’ve been trying to do it through some javascript calls to turn validation on
   when fb_connect_user = false, and turn it off when fb_connect_user = true, but
   it’s just not working.
 * I’m now considering trying a different route: setting a cookie for the fb_connect_user
   value and then using that to switch on and off validation. Not sure when I’ll
   get a chance to give it a proper go though, as I have a ton of other stuff on
   my blog that needs to be fixed first.

 * So, did anyone ever figure out a way to use the javascript validation along with
   the Simple Facebook Connect plugin?
 * Saharusa, did you accomplish this?
 * I’ve tried and tried, but my javascript is just crap, and I can’t manage. It 
   would be nice to be able to use Facebook for some comments and still be able 
   to use jquery’s validate function for the others. Otherwise, people have to retype
   their entire comment if they forget to enter a username or password.

 * Sorry to bump my own thread- but for those who tried(and failed) when the plugin
   was first released, please try the newest version. I’ve worked through a ton 
   of bugs since the first release and it should work great, even on fresh 2.0 installs
   now.

 * Thanks AD! No donation required. The plugin is still in the “testing phase”, 
   so just try it and report any bugs on the blog and we’ll call it even 😉

 * I knew I could win ya over 😉 You can also adjust the compression quality setting,
   or choose not to create a thumbnail at all(useful for small images) all on the
   fly.
 * Of course, the credit for this stuff goes to Martin Chuplac who wrote the excellent
   image manager included in the plugin. It’s the best WordPress image manager I’ve
   seen.

 * Um… bad day?
 * I should have worded the thumbnail thing differently… With the plugin, you can
   select thumbnail size on the fly. You also have the extra option to use a text
   only link to the image. Plus all of this is done in a popup and inserted right
   back into the editor window(no page scrolling/toggling), which seems more convenient
   to me, but YMMV…

    Get the new version of the plugin. It will automatically chmod the

 * Apologies to anyone who tried to post a comment on my site yesterday. I’m working
   on a new anti-spam hack and because of some bad code, everyone trying to comment
   got the message: “You are a rotten blog-spamming bastard. Go away.” LOL
 * Should be fixed now(crosses fingers).
