    Hey, first, thanks a lot for writing this code! But can you please give me a bit of instruction on where to put it? For example, the top part… does it get saved as a plugin or entered directly into the sidebar.php file as-is? And if so, what do I do with the bottom part?

    Also, I don’t understand the difference between “query_post” or “get_post”… ???

    Thanks again,

    Does no one know what could be causing this error?

    What I would do if I were you is redirect your native blog feed to a feed on Feedburner.com. That way you can set the feed title to be whatever you want it to be, even something different from the title of your blog.

    http://www.feedburner.com

    You could make whatever category you want them to post to be the default category. That is if you want them all to post to the same one… other than that, I’m not sure.

    Just a thought.

    Hello again, I wanted to post that I was able to get this to work if I switched the role of the WordPress user from “Contributor” to “Author.” However, I don’t like having my users’ role set to Author because the posts publish immediately on the blog. I would prefer to be able to go in and view, edit (add additional categories, for one), and approve the post before it was published to the blog, which is why I was trying to do this with the user’s role set at “Contributor.” But when I tried it like that, it didn’t work, so I’ll again ask if anyone has any idea what would be preventing the cross-post from appearing on the WordPress blog for admin approval.

    Thanks,

    Thanks, that worked. One thing I don’t like about this function is it only applies a limit to the number of links that show up for ALL categories… not different limit numbers for different categories. So, for example, if I wanted to limit the number of links to show up under “Record labels” to 10, but wanted the limit for “Bands” to be 50, I couldn’t do it. This was all possible and easily managed before… And I’m sorry to have to disagree with you, but why this was removed from the back end does NOT make perfect sense. It made sense when people like myself DID use it properly. It was working great, as a matter of fact.

    OK, I’ve been monkeying around with this and have a specific question.

    I added this to my sidebar, replacing the links stuff:

    <?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’, ‘limit’ => 50); ?>

    Now I’m getting an error instead of my links categories:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DOUBLE_ARROW in

    The “double arrows” are part of the code… what am I doing wrong?

    New functions exist to display the links (now called “bookmarks”). You should switch your theme to use the wp_list_bookmarks function.

    Can you be more specific as to how you implement this function? I’m totally lost…

    Sorry, I just created a separate thread about this very issue. I guess I must have skipped an update, but I agree with everyone above. I want the links management to go back under the “Manage” tab and give us back the ability to limit the number of links that are displayed in each link category. And yeah, 86 the stupid “blogroll” tag.

    In the meantime, I’m not sure what to do… my blog is now ten times longer from top to bottom than it was yesterday because every one of my links is now visible. I hope someone can come up with a plugin to give us this very valuable feature back until the WP developers realize they shouldn’t have removed it.

    Talk about not making any sense…

    Awesome. Replacing wp_redirect($redirect); with header("Location: $redirect") worked perfectly! So for anyone else who’s experiencing this problem, that’s all you should have to do.

    Thanks!

    header(“Location: $redirect”)

    I’m sorry, but where would I find the above line of code to replace it? I did not see that in redirectify.php.

    And should I leave the other change you suggested earlier in place, or undo it?

    Thanks again,

    Kafkaesqui,

    I did as you suggested and commented out that one line, then added the other below it, but it made no difference. Still have the same problem. Any other ideas?

    Thanks,

    Thanks! That sounds like exactly what I need. But I’m a bit confused as to what to do next (I just downloaded the php file, uploaded it to the plugin directory, and activated it)… Now what? Are there instructions for this? Where do I actually put the meta tag info for the redirect to occur (and what is that meta tag)? Can you post an example or something to help me out?

    Thanks again,
    kopper
