Interesting. At antiwar.com we have over 150 authors that editors (2 or 3) enter into the WP blog. I would like to assign each user the same email, but I suppose b/c I don’t use those email addresses, I could just assign something “dead” like email123x@antiwar.com. Ideally, I could turn this feature off, but that is probably hard. Is the new DB structure impose UNIQUE on the email address of the wp_users table?

Solution (though ugly):

– download http://www.cimatti.it/blog/2007/02/12/cimy-user-extra-fields-for-wordpress-21/
– add an extra field called “FULLBIO”
– turn on the get_cimy function
– add the following in your template:

if(is_single()) { echo "<hr>"; echo get_cimyFieldValue(get_the_author_ID(), 'FULLBIO'); echo "<br /><br />";}

Thanks for the reply. However, you can put in “a” tags and italics, so there must be an explicit setting for images. I will check the core files for the line of code.

Ok, you cannot exclude 2 categories with query posts, and you cannot avoid my problem above with a plugin like Category Visibility or any other hack that I could find. Here is my horrible, horrible solution:

<?php query_posts('cat=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40'); ?>

Note that 15 and 16 are missing.

Hopefully my client will never have more than 40 categories.

Thanks for your help!
