In reply to: WOW!….WUTS GOING ON??!!…MY BLOG AUTOMATICALLY UPDATED TO 2.7Perhaps your host did it? WordPress can not do this by itself. Even 2.7, which introduced an auto-upgrade feature, has to be invoked manually.

In reply to: Thin border/frame around imageThe only border around images used in posts that I could find is when images use the new WordPress caption feature and you insert a caption. According to the style sheet such captions use a border and a background colour.
.wp-caption { border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: center; background-color: #f3f3f3; padding-top: 4px; margin: 10px; -moz-border-radius: 3px; -khtml-border-radius: 3px; -webkit-border-radius: 3px; border-radius: 3px; }Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: orderby=rand doesn’t work ?Hi sinha. You’re not being stupid. Many times, after having spent several hours working on some code I overlook something obvious. 🙂
You say this snippet of code only fetches the first post. You’re using the
showpost=argument in your query but look at how you’re using it…showposts=1Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: No single.php in theme, where to edit ?I was editing the article section of the blog in single.php
I want to edit the article theme
I have no idea what you’re asking. If your theme has no single.php then WordPress falls back on index.php. Have a look at Template Hierarchy.

In reply to: Comment area disappeared!Does your single.php file contain
<?php comments_template(); ?>Also, just a shot in the dark but do you have comments enabled? WP 2.7 has a feature which allows you to disable comments on posts older than x number of days as determined by you.

In reply to: How to set front page content from a single page, but not post?Why don’t you just set the page from the admin interface? From your dashboard navigate to Settings > Reading. There you can set your front page to display a static page if you wish.

By the way, what version are you currently running? I ask because you may have to do an incremental upgrade.

In reply to: How can I prevent hotlinking?You could do it via htaccess or if you’re not comfortable with that you can try the Hotlink Protection Plugin. I think the plugin is more fun. You can use its own default image or create your own. (use your imagination) Note: this plugin DOES NOT prevent hotlinking but what it WILL DO is show the image of your choice on the sites of those doing the hotlinking.
