In reply to: WP Grins and WP 1.5 compatibility?You need to edit wp-admin/admin-functions.php
Find “edToolbar” :
<script type="text/javascript">edToolbar();</script>
';
echo '</div>';then insert these lines before the echo:
if (function_exists("wp_grins")) { echo "
"; wp_grins(); }Works for me, anyway 🙂

In reply to: Adding Amazon Affiliate Link To The SidebarOwww. Care to edit that so the code doesn’t mess up the page? As it says at the bottom, put code in backticks.
And to answer your question, the image isn’t showing up because it isn’t there. It’s looking here http://www.seanpaune.com/images/gnsc1290_np.gif, which returns a 404. Are you sure you’ve (1) uploaded the image into the images folder and (2) got the name right?
Also remember to add an alt attribute to the img tag to keep things nicely validated 🙂
(this is going to look messy)

In reply to: Linking the top banner to “home”If I was more awake, I’d work out the right character code to escape the backticks…

In reply to: My blog has no styleCheck the URL of your stylesheet. Is it pointing to a location that can be seen from other computers, or possibly to a file on your own computer?
If it’s publicly accessible, a URL would help us to help you 🙂

In reply to: [1.5] gamma to strayhorn – site broken in IEThe site loads for me in both IE6 and Firefox.
However, IE reports a JavaScript error “Line 122, Char 4, Permission denied”
And kcalendar_2005_2_40 shows in the status bar in IE. Looks like something to do with livecalendar?

In reply to: dumb comment plugin glitch?The code for the comment link looks like this:
<a href="http://www.shortforstephen.com/index.php?p=13#comments" title="Comments for: Other<br>People" s=""><br>Blogs'>(1)</a>It looks like the line break and the apostrophe are confusing things.

In reply to: localizing weatherJeremiah’s weather plugin comes with a language.php file. You can edit that to change the descriptions to any language you like.
Don’t know about any other weather plugins – I stuck with the first one I found, as it works nicely for me 🙂

In reply to: Simple plugin: more-than-one-category.phpUnless I’m misinterpreting what you’re doing, Nice Categories by Mark Jaquith does the job.

In reply to: .htaccess not writable if blog is outside wordpress directoryThanks – already checked that – the .htaccess file is in the root, and that has had its permissions set – currently at 666, which certainly should be writable by WordPress.
A further point is that if the blog is not in the WordPress folder, the file editor can’t find it to edit. Suggests to me that I’ve got a wonky setting somewhere that is stopping WP from “seeing” the actual .htaccess file in its correct location….

In reply to: Cannot connect to os42.comFrom a Windows command prompt, try these commands:
ping os42.com
You should get a response like this:
Pinging os42.com [216.193.194.215] with 32 bytes of data:Reply from 216.193.194.215: bytes=32 time=157ms TTL=56

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 157ms, Maximum = 176ms, Average = 168msIf you get that, then at least your DNS is working.
Other possible responses are “unknown host”, or a suggestion that you got the name wrong – if that happens, the problem is your DNS – or more likely your ISP’s DNS.
If you get a series of “request timed out” responses, this means your DNS is fine (otherwise your computer wouldn’t be finding the IP address from the name), but there is a problem getting from your computer to your sites. Try this command:
tracert os42.com
You should get a series of numbers and host names, ending in “trace complete”. If you get timeouts, or it never gets to the final destination, the problem is routing.
You’d need to take that up with your ISP.
