In reply to: Upgrade to 2.9 after finding my old install was hackedI can’t give specifics, but you should be able to break your database file into 3 or four sections and upload each one separately.

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?What about placing theme options in a new database table called themes? It would make trying to clear up deleted themes easier. Same with plugins.
I’m not saying that each theme needs to create it’s own table.
I’ve had themes and options leave a whole bunch of junk behind after uninstalling them.

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?And YES, whatever is done needs to have documentation. Simple stuff for the first time user and more in depth for people writing themes or wanting to learn to write themes. The more complex stuff could be placed in the codex, but adding a readme file (or two) to the appearance section would be helpful even if it mostly had linksto codex sections.

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?Expanding on my previous…
What about something like:
Theme1 – single sidebar left
theme2 – single sidebar right
theme3 – two sidebar left
theme4 – two sidebar right
theme5 – two sidebar splitAnd then maybe around 4 style sheets that would work with all the above?

The back-end/admin theme needs a lot of work. I run a few blogs and once in a while I get confused as to which one I am in., I found a plugin written in Spanish and have been able to do some minor hacking so I have different colour schemes, but I’d really like a way to theme or style the back-end also without having to resort to a plugin.

In reply to: People please use a test site to test your upgradeShouldn’t there be a way to code (in the automatic upgrade) a way to check things like php and mysql versions and give a warning? Also, before the upgrade starts, either tell people to deactivate their plugins, or do it automatically?

In reply to: Change Background?I don’t see the change in the stylesheet. Did you save it?

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?Also, why limit to one theme? Right now there is a DEFAULT and a CLASSIC theme. It might be worthwhile to put in a couple of different themes so people can see differences in how coding is done.

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?Ok, what about a basic theme that has several available stylesheets that could be chosen?
The stylesheets would change the basic overall look and people could write and offer stylesheets for different looks rather than having to change to a different theme? The back-end (Appearance > Theme Options) would list the stylesheets available for that theme with images and explanations.

In reply to: Which file are they?Ok, it looks like when MU creates a new blog, it puts in the default “Hello World” post. Seems he wants the new blog to either have a different default message or no default message when they are created.
Not having WPMU I don’t know which file to hack for that.
Anyone else?

In reply to: New Default WordPress Theme?What about rewriting it enough so that when updates to the theme are made they aren’t overwritten?
Or would that add too much code for a default theme?

In reply to: How to build static pages with WordPress 2.8.6Hi Guys, i got it rectified by upgrading WordPress 2.8.6. Thanks for all your support…
What did you upgrade to, since 2.8.6 is the current release? 2.9-RC1?
Someplace on this page should allow you to mark thread as “RESOLVED“.
