In reply to: Some people liked the iframe previewduh!
Thanks whooami.
Now that I’ve finally found it, I think it actually is better than the I-frame, so I better exit this thread.
It would make more sense to be beside the publish button though…

In reply to: Some people liked the iframe previewNot on the version I’ve downloaded. The page source is:
<fieldset id="titlediv"> <legend>Title</legend> <div><input type="text" name="post_title" size="30" tabindex="1" value="" id="title" /></div> </fieldset> <fieldset id="postdivrich"> <legend>Post</legend>ie: nothing between the Title text-entry and the Post heading. Same in Firefox and IE7.

It is there – just not in an iframe (that was slow) but opens a new window.
I now have 3 WP2.2 instalations, and none of them has a “Preview” link above the content area. Does it have to be enabled somewhere?

In reply to: user “admin” doesn’t appear in the “post author” tabI have reproduced this issue on a fresh install of WP2.1.3 with the default theme and no Plugins.
Immediately I add a second user with the rank of contributor or above, “Admin” disappears from the author list and pages and posts are attributed to Secondusername.
Setting a nickname other than Admin on the “Your Profile” page has fixed the problem – thanks for the info asquare.

In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2Well, I just tried installing WP-Cache on another server (which I believe is working fine), this time on a newly upgraded WP 2.0.3.
Just to be clear, I did the following:
- Edit wp-cache-phase2.php. Search for “ob_end_clean()” and replace it with “ob_end_flush()”
- Upload wp-content/plugins/wp-cache/ directory
- Upload edited wp-config.php file with: define(’WP_CACHE’, true);
- Create wp-content/cache directory and CHMOD 777
- Activate Plugin
- Enable Cache in Options > WP-Cache
Again, install was smooth, no errors, no problems. Site works fine.
But nothing written to cache (WP 2.0.1 was successfully cacheing previously), and no extra message in source code.
This time seems to be no problem with ownership, changing permissions etc.
No doubt I am missing something so blindingly obvious that no-one would think to mention it!

In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2thanks David. You say:
when you have a very heavily hit SQL server and lightly hit webserver…
I actually suspect this is indeed my situation – about 99% of pages load in a flash, but regularly pages begin giving time-out errors and the site becomes unusable for a minute or so.
talk to sysadmins — sounds like something odd on your box there!
I’ll forward your comment to the sysadmin – I’m beginning to worry that he is out of his depth here. I certainly am!

In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2Thanks for the simple explanation, Arne.
The installation went fine – no error messages – no apparent problems.
WP-Cache is now Enabled with default configuration.
Cache contents reported as:
0 cached pages
0 expired pagesAnd no extra code appears in pages to indicate cache is working.
If I try to look in wp-content/cache with my FTP programme to see if anything is there, I get:
550 permission deniedI cannot change permissions on
wp-content/cache (currently: rwx — —)
or wp-content/advanced-cache.php (currently: rw- r– r–)
because user is ‘apache’, not me.Forum: Fixing WordPress

What specifically are you trying to do while SSHing in?
Like most WP users, I only have FTP access to my server. Ricardo’s instructions start:
Step 1. Upload to your plugins folder, usually wp-content/plugins/ and unzip the file
I can’t find any information on how to do this. Every other plugin I unzip on my hard drive then upload, but this does not produce the necessary result:
it will create a wp-content/plugins/wp-cache/ directory.
Then the instructions say:
Step 5. Create a symbolic link from wp-content/advanced-cache.php to wp-content/plugins/wp-cache/wp-cache-phase1.php.
Reading down past lots of unanswered questions about this I finally see comment 351:
Clueless, what you need to do is login using SSH (or Telnet) to your server with a user that has the rights to make symbolic links.
If you are able to explain how an ordinary WP user on a shared host can achieve this it would probably be more appropriate on the plugin page I’ve linked to.
I appreciate your help, and the information on how to install the WP-Cache plugin will be very useful to lots of people who can’t get an understandable answer from the author.
However, I’d still like to know why the webserver I am on is not behaving and if it can be fixed.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2I know about WP-Cache. Unfortunately it seems to require SSH or Telnet access to the webserver (although the author is strangely reluctant to answer questions about this).
I trying to find out if there is something wrong with the shared hosting server I am using that causes the ordinary WP cache to fail.
If it is a server configuration that can be corrected I will ask the webmaster to do so.
If it can’t be corrected, I need to know what I should be checking for when evaluating a replacement host.

In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2Westi says:
then WordPress can’t write to it
Any clue about what might be stopping it?
I’ve done a second WP installation on the same server, and this also will not write to cache, even with the instruction in wp-config.php.
Also, I’m puzzled your first reply:
It is currently disabled by default
I have WP 2.0.2 running on several other hosts, and the cache started working straight out of the box – no modification needed to wp-config.php.
I am beginning to think I might have an unsuitable host (I’m already on their case about intermittent timeouts when loading pages), but I would like to be certain that I have eliminated any possibility of mistakes at my end.
