Forum: Plugins
In reply to: plugin wanted: ban specific domain referralsI second podz remarks. Get used to it, it you want a public presence (ie on the web) you will continue to have this problem.
The ONLY way around it is forced comment registration. And with that a determined commenter will just register under various names and IP’s, so whats the point.
You have chosen to write about what many consider a controversial topic and invites just the type of behavior you dislike.
GET USED TO IT, and quit posting the same problem over and over and over.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Theme : pool = I want to change the top links!That section of code is found in your theme’s header.php file.
this is the sextion you need to edit:
<div id="pages">
<div class="alignleft">
<ul>
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Blog</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?>
</ul>
</div>
You will notice the one page you have made is already displayed, any new Pages you make will also be automaticlly displayed.
Note this part, that is what will auto add new Pages:
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?>First backup your header.php code then edit this how you need it.
Remove this code (
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?>) and add what you would like.ie:
<li>My buddies</li>
<li>Portfolio</li>
<li>Taking out the trash</li>etc, etc.
See if that works, REMEMBER backup your header.php file so if you have problems you can revert to the original.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Where can I get new themes?You have probably downloaded styles, vice themes. Styles were for WP ver 1.2. If you are running WP 1.5 you can look through them and download them here.

In reply to: People should search moreAnyone notice an increase in posts that start out with “I searched high, low and in-between, and can’t find what I’m looking for.”
Yet a one word post related search finds the answer at the top of the list!
My response is normally to post the link to that search only and bid adieu. Or something along the lines of “Search is your friend,” and the link to my results.

In reply to: Adense works on Ind. Posts only?While no expert by any means, I would guess an individual page is spidered and that’s all the bot reads, the subject and text on that single page.
If you index page is spidered the bot has more text (ie more posts of different subjects) and more ways to vary the content it provides.

In reply to: small little format problemWhat do you mean by “off set?”
Are you referring to the “Featured Article” post?
If so the text wraps around the image, and most designers – web or print – normally format their images in this way.

In reply to: Icon / image for linkThe Auto Links Plugin may work for you.
http://www.forceagainstsomething.com/index.php/auto-links-plugin-for-wordpress/
You can set whatever word you desire to by automaticlly linked. (ie Amazon would be linked to their home page)
More to the point of what you’re looking for each of these auto links when hovered will display “Leave your home page goto amazon”
It comes wuth an easy to use admin interface.

In reply to: New use for WordPress“And I do not see any kind of “deception” here.”
While strictly true the least you could have done is leave a reference to WP in the source code.
Courtesy is a wonderful thing even if it’s not “required (legally).”
And while I’m in a snarky mood, the colors clash and are tiring to look at.

In reply to: “Read More” is linking to archives pageBeel, boy do I know how THAT feels. Threre is one guy around here that has been on WP about 3 months and has asked at least one question a day. When I gave him a correct ans. to one and he screwed up using the code I tired at his lack of reading comprehension and bailed on him. Then he started be bombard my Email inbox. He quickly got banned like any good spammer should.
Anyway I’ll take a stab at it. The more link is operating correctly. As designed it will open the single/archive page.
If you want to open the more link and have it “unfold” on the index use this plugin:
