Dear Moderator, I’m currently looking at the text right below the reply box, which states, “Put code in between `backticks`.” Don’tcha think it would be a kindness for the site owner to change that? It would certainly make your job easier. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery update for WP 2.8.3] Slideshow don’t work proprely](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-update-for-wp-283-slideshow-dont-work-proprely/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [16 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-update-for-wp-283-slideshow-dont-work-proprely/#post-1166146) * Hmm, I originally only checked it in firefox 3.0.13, working fine in IE, now that I’ve checked. In firefox it stalls at the first photo and sits and spins. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery update for WP 2.8.3] Slideshow don’t work proprely](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-update-for-wp-283-slideshow-dont-work-proprely/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [16 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-update-for-wp-283-slideshow-dont-work-proprely/#post-1166137) * Client site also has this problem after the most recent update. * [LGNC site gallery](http://lgnc.org/resources/images?album=2&gallery=2) * I did make sure that the image rotator file was in the right place and the path was properly defined in gallery admin.

It would be perfect if I knew how would I write this to exclude the link category(s). Any help for that? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [404.php in 2.7.1 not working?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404php-in-271-not-working/) * Thread Starter [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [17 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404php-in-271-not-working/#post-991200) * For the record, I did “resolve” this so it works for me, simply by setting a custom permalink structure. However, this is not something I would consider “ resolved” as far as the wordpress stock installation is concerned. There should be consistency. It should work no matter what permalinks you’re using. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Building A custom CMS style site Unique front page design](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/building-a-custom-cms-style-site-unique-front-page-design/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/building-a-custom-cms-style-site-unique-front-page-design/#post-818351) * In admin, in Settings you simply follow the directions to show your blog at toplevel instead of from its directory. * And you simply create a home.php template following the instructions in codex, and then go into admin/settings/reading and set it to show “a static page”. Done deal. * And all this info is in the Docs. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [default WIDGET search box to the NON-widget one line search box button display](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/default-widget-search-box-to-the-non-widget-one-line-search-box-button-display-1/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/default-widget-search-box-to-the-non-widget-one-line-search-box-button-display-1/#post-576286) * Phocks, you could have accomplished that in the theme’s function.php by overriding the code in the search widget. It’s safer to do it this way since the theme files don’t get overwritten when you upgrade wordpress. Details here: * [http://automattic.com/code/widgets/api/](http://automattic.com/code/widgets/api/) * It is possible for theme authors to define replacement widgets within functions. php. Replace an existing widget by registering its name with a new callback. An empty callback will unregister a widget. Because each widget has a unique name and a non-unique callback, the default markup before a widget looks like this: * `
  • {callback output}
    • ` * When you register a widget you may pass a custom classname to replace callback. This is most useful for object-oriented widgets whose callbacks are passed as arrays. * Forum: [Developing with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/) In reply to: [Integrated frontpage for multiple blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integrated-frontpage-for-multiple-blogs/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integrated-frontpage-for-multiple-blogs/#post-713013) * You want to use this technique: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/45242?replies=23](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/45242?replies=23) * You may be able to use magpie to call in the rss stuff, if you can’t just use the above thread to do what you need. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Removing comments](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-comments-3/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-comments-3/#post-716671) * If I remember correctly, you need to edit the widget blocks that you’re using that are showing the number of comments. admin/presentation/widgets and click on (for instance) the top right icon on the Categories widget to edit that widget. You shoudl see it in there. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Handling the iPhone](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/handling-the-iphone/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/handling-the-iphone/#post-716670) * The best way is simply to create a handheld stylesheet. And you can use display: none; for things you don’t feel are important to a handheld user. You can also style things completely different since you’re using a separate stylesheet. So you can make a one-column layout for the smaller screen, for instance. You can also position things so that the content comes first, and then the links. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [CRITICAL : Posts and Pages Dissappearing when upgrading to 2.3.3 !](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/critical-posts-and-pages-dissappearing-when-upgrading-to-233/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/critical-posts-and-pages-dissappearing-when-upgrading-to-233/#post-700771) * In future, before doing an upgrade, it’s important to back up EVERYTHING. Database and all files in public_html on your server. * There is an archive of old versions of WordPress here: [http://wordpress.org/download/release-archive/](http://wordpress.org/download/release-archive/) * You can try installing an older version and then importing your old database to return your blog to normal (hopefully) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [VERY slow after upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-slow-after-upgrade/) * [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [18 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-slow-after-upgrade/#post-604210) * There is a thread around somewheres about db tables that need to be added.

And widget users are royally screwed? * Whose “bright idea” was it to mix all this together anyway? The least you could do is give us a way to separate them back out if we prefer them that way, the way blogs TRADITIONALLY show exterior links, which is, I think, the way most people would prefer. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Post Image Plugin Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-image-plugin-problem/) * Thread Starter [kickass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kickass/) * (@kickass) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-image-plugin-problem/#post-546708) * Thanks to [Vix](http://garinungkadol.com), who is a class act, I have a fix for this.
