You mean something that hooks into the WP registration form, but with more fields? I’ll keep my eyes open.

First of all LOSE the sense of entitlement. This is a volunteer forum. Demanding anything will get you pretty much nothing. That being said, the error message indicates to me that you were mucking around in your functions.php file.

You can still get into your site via FTP; that is what ClaytonJames was trying to tell you (but you wouldn’t listen). So NO, you are not locked out of your site unless you have forgotten your web hosting login details.

If I were you, I’d FTP a fresh copy of functions.php from whatever theme you were using, overwriting the one you have fuxored. But before doing that, rename the bad file functions.php.bak so you can at least salvage some good code from it if you want.

HTH.

You’ll have to do trial and error on the excerpt length. WP buries its default 55 *character* excerpt length in the code, but you can override this with whatever number you choose by putting this code in your functions.php file:

// POST EXCERPT LENGTH IS SET HERE
function my_excerpt_length($text){
return 55;
}
add_filter('excerpt_length', 'my_excerpt_length');

Where 55 is the value you decide upon.

HTH.

This one?

Because this is a community forum, it’s nice to provide as much info as possible so others can benefit from the collective knowledge. Let me know if this is NOT the plugin you meant. Sounds really interesting, although I wouldn’t really trust too many people to upload images to my server, but that’s just me. If you have a small community of registered users that you trust, should be fine. 🙂

And about FB, I don’t think you can pull photos from it automatically. If there are photos that you are tagged in, but which do not belong to you, then absolutely not. You’d have to download them and then upload them to your WP site.

You’d have to have registered users uploading photos to a single page or gallery that would then be displayed?

Grab Role Manager, and assign those users to a specific class and be careful what rights you assign them.

I’d use Next Gen Gallery to create a gallery, associate the gallery with a specific page, and then restrict users to that page (or any or all gallery pages you have or want to create).

HTH.
