In reply to: Cant get feeds to workYou haven’t got a feed there because that isn’t a WordPress powered site. You have WordPress installed in a subdirectory named “blog” hence you’ll find your feed at … drum roll …

In reply to: All links to posts brokenHmmm, interesting. I’ve seen some strange problems pop up now and then but don’t recall this ever happening.
It only seems to affect the single post permalinks and not the category or archive permalinks.
Try switching to the default permalinks and see what happens.

In reply to: What's my URL's RSS Feed?My guess the reason the feed is not validating is because there is no content on that site. The FeedBurner scraper is probably getting a 404 when trying to access the feed.
Publish a test post, resync the feed with FeedBurner and see what happens.

In reply to: how to change the picture of the top?I assume you mean the image with the tape bearing the number 8? If so that image is located at wp-content/themes/amazing-grace/images/bg-portrait2.jpg or in this case comobajardepesoya.com/wp-content/themes/amazing-grace/images/bg-portrait2.jpg
You’ll need an image editor to get it to look right.

In reply to: Nightlife help – left column strange symbolsHi irie5000. Are you still here?
While I was looking at your site I noticed the footer is cut off. I checked your source code to see why. Becoming more curious I checked your style sheet to see where you got that theme from. I see the original version of that theme was designed by Brian Gardner and was available at performancing.com. They don’t seem to offer it as a download anymore.
To cut to the chase, I suspect you downloaded it from amazingwordpressthemes.com which is a shady site. I downloaded Nightlife from that site and can see why you cut the footer off. The theme is injected full of crap.
The file
footer.phpinserts their spammy links into the footer. The file also calls an external file located at amazingwordpressthemes.com/wp-url.php which is hidden by CSS.The file
functions.phpcontains code which attempts to insert their spammy link directly into your database.I took the liberty of “sanitizing” those files and uploaded them to the WordPress pastebin. If you’re interested you can get them by clicking the following links …

In reply to: Sidebar content changes on post pages and a couple of other thingsThis theme allows you to insert different sidebars for various parts of the site via widgets. For instance, you can have a sidebar showing completely different content on single post pages from that which is shown on the home page.
I suspect you were experimenting with some text widgets. 🙂
Navigate to Appearance
>Widgets. In the widget screen check the Sidebar for Posts widget position to see if you inserted a text widget there.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How do I access the text from my posts? (Where is it located?)Hi needforname,
This is easy to do but I included a few images just in case.
1. Login to phpMyAdmin and select the database. In the next screen you will see the image linked here. This is your database tables. Click the “browse” button in the wp_posts table as the image illustrates.
2. Once you do that you will arrive at another screen as shown in the image linked here. This is a list of your posts. Click the “pencil” icon for whatever post you want to access as illustrated by the image I linked.
3. After clicking the “pencil” icon you will see yet another screen as shown in the image linked here. This is where you can find the content of the particular post.
Copy & paste away. 🙂

In reply to: [VoucherPress] [Plugin: VoucherPress] Installation errorPHP is out of memory. I downloaded the plugin to have a look at it and it comes in at a whopping 13.9MB zipped.
You can try increasing the amount of memory allocated to PHP as per the instructions in this forum thread … or … install the plugin the old fashioned way via FTP.

In reply to: HELP with FATAL ERROR please pleaseHi taucherphil,
I did a little homework. The name of the plugin is Aeytimes Product or Service Feedback / Comments Widget. For an immediate fix, browse to your plugin folder via FTP and rename the folder
aeytimes-product-or-service-feedbackto something else such asaeytimes-product-or-service-feedback-1. It doesn’t really matter what you rename it. This has the effect of deactivating the plugin.I had a look at the plugin and the permanent fix is easy – the author made a typo. Open the file called
aeytimes-product.phpin a plain text editor such as Notepad and close to the top you will see the following …class AeytimesProductRSS extends WP_Widget { function AeytimesProductRSS() { $widget_ops = array( 'classname' => 'aeytimes', 'description' => 'A widget displaying the latest comments of your idea on AeyTimes.' ); $control_ops = array( 'width' => 300, 'height' => 350, 'id_base' => 'aeytimes-product' ); $this->WP_Widget('aeytimes-product', 'Aeytimes Product or Service Widget', $widget_ops, $control_ops); }Pay attention to the above line that reads
function AeytimesProductRSS()Now, scroll to the bottom of that file and you’ll see the following …
function register_AeytimesSiteRSSWidget(){ register_widget('AeytimesSiteRSS'); } add_action('init', 'register_AeytimesSiteRSSWidget', 1);Pay attention to the above line that reads
register_widget('AeytimesSiteRSS')Do you see what he has done? A simple typo. The block of code above should read …
function register_AeytimesProductRSSWidget(){ register_widget('AeytimesProductRSS'); } add_action('init', 'register_AeytimesProductRSSWidget', 1);Simply make the change I outlined above, upload the file and rename that folder back to its original name.
Or, if you don’t want to muck about editing files I uploaded an edited version of the
aeytimes-product.phpto the WordPress Pastebin which you can download here.Delete the original
aeytimes-product.phpfile and upload the one I supplied. Then rename the folderaeytimes-product-or-service-feedback-1back to its original.
