In reply to: Catch 22…hehe, that’s funny stuff. There’s so many things to think about when writing an application… poor devs.
You can use this link to edit your post if you know the post #
yoursite.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=157You just have to replace the &post= with that draft’s post number. You can find this out in two ways. 1 by using phpAdmin to look in your database. 2. You can guess the number. Get the post ID for an entry you did just before or after that one and then adjust the number in the link accordingly.
This is definitely a bug. Can you report it at mosquito.wordpress.org? Just click ‘report issue’ and cut and paste your entry from above. Thanks!

In reply to: Stranger accessing wp-login.php? action=lostpasswordTo be safe you should file a security bug report at http://mosquito.wordpress.org. There might be something simple we’re missing, or possibly unrelated to WordPress, but the devs can confirm that.

In reply to: image in sidebar.php?Ah Firefox, destroy those frames! Mwwwwaaaaahhhhaaa
There’s nothing unusual in your stylesheet that would prevent it from displaying images. What’s the code you’re adding?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Stranger accessing wp-login.php? action=lostpasswordIt looks like this is fixed in 1.5. I just tried using the ‘lost password’ link and I first need to enter my correct username and email address. (Do earlier version ask for the email address?) Once I put the correct info in it sent the following email:
Someone has asked to reset a password for the login this site
Login: admin
To reset your password visit the following address, otherwise just ignore this email and nothing will happen.

?action=resetpass&key=d34a3f3a9405a833610a8a6f9835260aHi Lori,
The page that displays categories is called archive.php. It’s in wp-content/themes/your current theme. If you open it up near the top you’ll see a bunch of condition statements that tells the page what to do if it’s a monthly archive, daily archive, category archive, etc. So if I’m understanding you right you just need to edit the archive.php page so it looks like you want. Then, where you want the ad to appear you’ll enter this:
if (is_category('pets')) { code to show pet ad }
elseif (is_category('extremebowling')) { display bowling ad }
elseif (is_category('squirrelsonwaterskis')) { display squirrel ad }
...
Hope that makes sense, let me know if you have questions.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: ‘parse error’My post.php is 778 lines long as well using the stable 1.5. I’ve searched and don’t have the lines you’ve pasted above in my post.php.
It would appear something has gone wrong either in downloading WP or installing to your server. I would would re-download the latest stable release from http://wordpress.org/download/. Then delete your old install and ftp up this new one.
Just to clarify, WP requires no PHP knowledge to install or use.

In reply to: Parse errorPHP doesn’t always get the line numbers right. The error says ‘unexpected $’ but there’s no $ in the line you gave. Give us a few more lines on either side of 48 and we’ll see what we can do.

In reply to: Upload limit?create a file on your server that contains just ‘<?php phpinfo() ?>’. Run the file and search for the line upload_max_filesize. That’s the limit set in php. You might be able to change this but you’ll have to check with your host.

In reply to: Adding an entirely new Links SectionLooks like I’m part of the morning crew.
Check out http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_get_links
The short bits:
1. Create a new link category using the admin interface
2. Assign relevant links to that category
3. use wp_get_links(category_number) in your sidebar to only show that category.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: trouble with background imageHi Kaylee,
It looks like the url to your image is incorrect. In your wp-layout.css you have:
background-image: url(“http://www.phoenixsong.org/allissa/images/sun.gif”) ;which doesn’t work. If I change it to:
background-image: url(“http://www.phoenixsong.org/images/sun.gif”) ;I get a sun underneath your main content. Is that what you were looking for?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: New Idea for Insert ImageI’m pretty sure this plugin does what you’re looking for.
