In reply to: deleting usersI just reduce them to subscriber. You can also change their email to yours so they can’t recover the password should you change their password to lock them out entirely. Changing their password and email is all you really need do to disable their access.

This error can also be triggered by formatting characters embedded in documents by some word processors. If you use a word processor to edit your HTML documents, be sure to use the “Save as ASCII” or similar command to save the document without formatting information.

In reply to: HTML Input is changed in an ‘stupid’ wayin simplistic terms (the only terms I know for this topic!) wpautop runs through the entry just before it displays, and tidies up the output. with the plugin activated, it doesn’t do that. wpautop doesn’t touch the entry itself. it only filters the output each and every time it’s displayed. so yeah, turn off the disable wpautop plugin, and that filtering process happens again, which may result in the output not being as desired.
You can also do it on a theme by theme basis by putting the necessary code in the functions.php of a theme. add to, or create functions.php in your theme, and make sure it contains:
remove_filter(“the_content”, “wpautop”);
that needs to be inside

In reply to: Date Order – Not Alphabetical For Category Listingah, you said you created, I thought you meant you wrote the php code yourself.
I’m still a little confused. Are you saying you created categories, and named them April 2006 etc.? Perhaps you could better explain what you did, and post a link so we can see an example. I need that to ‘get’ what’s going on.

In reply to: kind of complicated greymatter to wordpress problemyes, wordpress can import from an rss file. I’ve never used it though. I believe you need to export rss to a file. well, ya know what, I’ll just find the info in the codex … http://codex.wordpress.org/Importing_Content#Importing_from_an_RSS_feed
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: kind of complicated greymatter to wordpress problemYou don’t need to ‘start all over’, but I would recommend you install a 1.2 version to do the import of the extra info from greymatter. But treat it like a separate install with a separate database. After you have greymatter imported, do a n RSS import in your proper blog.
Or you could try and fix that error.

In reply to: Date Order – Not Alphabetical For Category ListingPlease post the code you’re using for this.

In reply to: The whole site disappeared, please help!!!!!Try changing/replacing your theme. The twilight one you are using is doing an illegal function call. Perhaps you modified it at the suggestion of a plugin you are no longer using.

In reply to: Roles: Unclear on descriptionsI combine the role manager and limit categories plugins to do what you describe. You can create a role and assign the categories to that role. Then just assign the appropriate user to that role. Although it’s an extra step, it’s more powerful in the end. You can easily have two people with the same access, and treat them as a team.

In reply to: Roles: Unclear on descriptionsI highly recommend that role manager plugin moshu linked. I’ll explain a bit why you would like it. Firstly, it indicates each specific function that is enabled for each role. Secondly, it let’s you click on or off each individual function. Don’t want an Editor to be able to change categories? click it off. Thirdly, you can create new custom roles, and specifically select what that role can do.
It’s hugely useful for knowing what a role can do, and hugely powerful in customizing specifically what each role, and therefore what each user can do.
And it comes with a free bag of chips*.

In reply to: How many plugins do *you* use? I use five.The maximum number of plugins I use in any of my wordpress installs is approximately 15. I thought my meaning was clear, but if it wasn’t, it should be now.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Plugin: You should subscribe as a member before you access the blog…Category Access lets you define what categories can be seen without subscribing first, and which must have the viewer logged in. Look for it on Matt’s list http://codex.wordpress.org/User:Matt/2.0_Plugin_Compatibility, or download it here http://www.coppit.org/code/ (scroll to the bottom).

In reply to: How many plugins do *you* use? I use five.Depends on the blog. I’m using wordpress all over the damn place now. I run exactly what’s needed, never extra fluff. Some blogs have just a couple, some many more, with the max around 15.
