 * Hi bangz …
    Just sent the index and css file out… let me know if you have questions…
   also as a side note, allusion’s post about not touching the default html code
   is good practice (although I touched it–for now). 🙂

 * You’re welcome to have mine, although it might need a tiny bit of tinkering to
   make it work. It’s 3-column (narrow) all css (no tables).

 * you have to make sure that you have “Edit Timestamp” check-marked… other than
   that, I can’t think why it wouldn’t work.

 * Thomas figured this out… although his version of the script didn’t work for me…
   Mike posted a “fix” that works. You can check it out in his forums on his website(
   if he doesn’t mind the extra vistors). 🙂

 * I saw a website that solved this problem using WP. I just wonder how much editing
   he had to do, (or which files he had to edit) to get the “WP engine” to run from
   several different directories. He’s got his index page loading in his root/main..
   then he’s got his categories in seperate directories, then his archives are done
   the same way, monthly. On top of this, he’s got the last 5-10 posts lists.
    Wow.
   That’s what I have been looking for–at least I know it’s possible. Is there anyone
   that can explain how this is possible? John

 * Hi, I’m still using b2 for my neighborhood association’s website, using this 
   method of seperating categories of posts (news, minutes/agenda, and resources,
   etc…) $cat=whatever; but I’m having problems with the search function and the
   <<previous next>> thing… It’s a mess.
    But now I’m thinking that I can still 
   do this but have all this done from the archive page … then I could go ahead 
   and switch over to WordPress… Please tell me this will work. 🙂 Also, how many
   links will the link manager hold before it explodes–that would be a huge saver.
   🙂 You can see what it’s doing at [http://trinitypark.org](http://trinitypark.org)

 * well… I did run into a little glitch .. although I was able to renumber my categories,
   the next new one I created was two numbers off. So now I have 1-5, 7.

 * How about the chmod thing for sensitive files–if there are any? And thank you
   for the quick response. I made sure I didn’t have those files in my folders.

   so far. 🙂

 * Thanks Mike,
    Normally, I’m an idiot with mySql, but I went in and found out 
   how to change them back to consecutive numbers–and I’ll remember to edit the 
   names this time and not delete them. 🙂 For those who have phpmyadmin: 1. goto“
   b2linkcatagories” (or whatever you have it named) 2. check mark “cat_name” and
   click the “Browse” tab 3. your catagories show up in a table, just click the “
   Edit” button and edit the “cat_id” 4. It’s been two minutes since I’ve made these
   changes, and so far nothing has crashed! 🙂 John
