In reply to: 1 WordPress for 2 domains?The best you can do is to create a mutual subdomain for domain1.com and domain2.com so that you will have the exactly same content at either website.

In reply to: WordPress – Setting Up on MacAnswer to Question 2
No. If you have two separate computers for WP and database, then database address won’t be ‘localhost.’
We are Mac people and give you kind suggestions. If you want, we can give you names for Mac-friendly web hosting companies.
1. You don’t want to host a WordPress website or anything on your own terminal. You would have to install phpAdmin, MySQL, PHP… It will be better if you just sign up for a shared web hosting plan. Or maybe have your WP website hosted at wordpress.com?
2. Telus is not a web hosting company. They will probably give you some web space at their website. They are unlikely to allow you to install your own PHP scripts.

In reply to: [Plugin: SMS Text Message] Feature requestMr. Duebelbeis is on a spamming spree. Ignore him.
How to get rid of the stupid Search Engine Marketers: 101
Don’t be deceived. Mr. Duebelbeis is only writing to advertise websites. The junk websites at thespiffylife.com and clever-agency.com are both hosted by DreamHost of Brea, California, USA. How coincident…

In reply to: Spam linking to our blog?1. Some webmasters hire spammers to advertise their websites and products. (Example: ArtSystem of Malaysia)
2. Some webmasters are affiliates and use proxy servers to circulate spam posts and advertise their own websites. (Example: Many junk pharmacy websites run by Russians including the one at us-ds.com)
3. There are spammers who circulate junk posts to send Internet users to exploited, redirection websites or malicious websites with malware/HTTP protocol vulnerability attack/computer viruses. Latest examples of exploited websites are those of FortuneCity (fortunecity.com), National Clearinghouse on Academic Worklife (academicworklife.org), LiveVideo.com (livevideo.com).
4. Some domain registrars may be spammers themselves and/or are affiliated with them and circulate spam posts for various reasons. (Example: Moniker Online Services)Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How to add spaces between nav bars and articlesI would define what you call the navigation bar at first before posting a negative comment about the popular blog software package. I would also open and edit style.css inside a theme folder or run search, depending on what you mean by the navigation bar.

In reply to: How to stop this kind of spam?You may want to remove the line for the character set in the wp-config file and see what happens. Otto42 or some other moderator explained at least once before how to let WP read two-byte characters.

In reply to: Want to moderate a specific personOhh… That’s quite interesting. I’ve educated myself as well. Than you, too.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Want to moderate a specific personThen you can. You can just write a simple PHP script for the table titled wp_comments where
– You make an SQL query for comment_author_email or comment_author_IP for the last post.
– If there is a match, update comment_approved with value = 1.I won’t write an entire script. But it shouldn’t be difficult. And I’m not a PHP expert.

In reply to: Want to moderate a specific personDoes this person use the same IP address or e-mail address?

In reply to: How to stop this kind of spam?>No they are not common.
You mean they use different IP addresses for similar spam posts?
>Have you not come across them when visiting WordPress sites?
No. Our spam database captures more than 600 spam posts a day. But I don’t remember seeing that sort of posts recently. What is your character set, anyway? Is it UTF-8?

In reply to: How to stop this kind of spam?Do they use a common IP address to post those spam comments? If not, then one of a few choices you have is to go after spam sponsors.

In reply to: Sidebar goes down in PAGE 3 for NO reason!Another cause could be a long article title or one with a long word in it, depending on how your theme is designed.
A common cause is a wider graphic image than the width of the body. But you don’t seem to have such images.
