Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: display posts from external blogI can’t get either to work, although I suppose Chait will help me out. Here is my problem with magpie:
I have Magpie up and running on my site, but I can’t find any documentation about how to make it show the full feed, and not just the feed titles. I’ve tried this code, but it doesn’t work:
echo $rss->channel[‘title’], “<br>\n”; foreach ($rss->items as $item )
{
$title = $item[title];
$url = $item[link];
$thecontent = $item[content];
echo “$title<br>$thecontent<br>\n”; }
Where I wan the “content” to appear, it just says “array”. How do I get it to produce the full content from the feed? I could find no examples of this on the main page, does this mean that magpie can’t do this?
With Chait, the problem is different. For some reason the content only appears some of the time… Very strange. The rest of the time the content appears as a tooltip.
I’ll end up with whichever system I can troubleshoot first.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: display posts from external blogThanks. That looks good. I also found this one by David Chait:

In reply to: multiple blogs = what ?What Skippy said!!! “charle97 has it almost exactly correct. It’s not just that people want content logically seperated in storage but displayed on the same page (sidebars, guest blogs etc); they want that and they want to be able to manage both sets of posts from a single administrative login.” Couldn’t make the issue clearer.

In reply to: can’t delete a commentI figured it out. I was using Privoxy ad filtering, and it was blocking referrers.

In reply to: can’t delete a commentI’m having the same problem. Doesn’t matter which browser I use. I have no firewall. Things worked fine with 1.2 alpha from a month or two ago. It doesn’t work with the latest version…

In reply to: Sending referrersI’m having the same problem. In firefox or in Omniweb, doesn’t matter how things are set as far as the above mentioned setting is concerned. 1.2 alpha had been working fine…

In reply to: Related PostsOh, I didn’t see that other post (forgot to hit refresh). Thanks for converting the hack!

In reply to: Related PostsI see it is possible to enable legacy my-hacks.php support, so that seems to work for now. Thanks!

In reply to: Ecto Image uploadNobody is saying it works, not that I know of. The WP developers haven’t implemented image upload yet.
Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Ecto Image upload(1) There is now a windows version of Ecto for those who want it.
(2) The developer of Ecto told me that the inability to upload images is a problem with the WordPress code, not with Ecto. I hope this can be fixed!!!
(I haven’t updated my Ecto build in a few weeks, so I don’t if anything has changed in that time, but it looks like it still isn’t working from the other comments.)Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: XML-RPC FixesI find there is a delay with publishing via ecto. Sometimes you have to wait a minute before the post appears.

In reply to: Blog -> Content Management SystemYou should look at this:
http://wiki.wordpress.org/index.php/Related%20Posts
I use it in the menu to show a dynamic menu of all posts in the current category. Then I hard link one post in each category to the main page. Works pretty well.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Mac Software?I haven’t tried image upload yet, but posting and categories has been working for a while. You do have to wait a little after posting as the page seems to dissappear for a while while WP does its thing, then it reappears with the changes. The bigger problem I’m having is with the fact that two ecto features seem disabled with WP:
(1) It doesn’t convert line breaks in preview.
(2) The list view doesn’t allow me to ctl-click to view in the browser.
I was able to modify the template to show the preview (apart from line breaks), you just need to make sure that where the content is you use the Movable Type content tag rather than the WP tag in the preview template. Like so:
<div class="post">
<div class="storycontent">
<$BODY$>
</div>
</div>
