In reply to: Image Uploading with WP2.0delano, your php probably runs as Apache module. Unfortunately, in this case, you have to set permissions of the “uploads” folder to 777 instead of 750.

Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: How to change existing theme?Ok, I was so excited about helping people that I didn’t finish reading the question (thanks to moshu I finally did). The rest of the post is not true for WP blogs from wordpress.com!
You can change the template files within wordpress 2.0.
Log in as admin, click on “Presentation” and then “Theme Editor”. For design/color/font alterations you need to make changes to the file “style.css”.

In reply to: Footer graphic is offset to rightIn the file style.css, the one for the default theme (path: wp-content/themes/default), change the #footer padding value (somewhere around line 291) from padding: 0 0 0 1px; to padding: 0 0 0 0;
Worked for me.
The problem is that for the “upload picture” function to work correctly (PHP as apache module), the wp-content folder has to have permissions set to 777. Putting this file there prevents people from browsing the directory which is especially dangerous in this case. It helps a bit but doesn’t change the fact that permissions set to 777 within the www-root is a security issue…

In reply to: NO THUMBNAILYour picture has to many pixels for the function to generate a thumbnail. It’s strange but that’s what the programmers implemented.
Don’t worry, you can do something about it.

In reply to: NO THUMBNAIL1. What type of image did you upload? gif, jgep, png?
2. Check if the thumbnail was created after the upload in your “uploads/2006/01” folder. E.g., if you uploaded a picture with the filename “tree.jpg” then the thumbnail must be in the same folder named “tree.thumbnail.jpg”.
Try to help people to help you and don’t just repeat the question…

In reply to: WP2.0: Thumbnail fail when changing image alingmentHow did you change the alignment?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: uploading, thumbnails and file extensionsBTW: The function which causes this problem is
“imagecreatetruecolor()” in function “wp_create_thumbnail()” in “admin-functions.php” (line 742).
See http://www.php.net/imagecreatetruecolor for the different (return-)behaviors for different PHP versions.
For some PHP versions GD2.0 must be installed. Work around for people only having GD: Use function “imagecreate()” [ http://www.php.net/imagecreate ] instead of “imagecreatetruecolor()”.

In reply to: NO THUMBNAILAre the dimensions of the original picture greater than 128 (width) or 96 (height)? If not, no thumbnail is created and therefore the menu item is crossed out.

In reply to: Help! My WordPress Blog Contains 2,988 CategoriesIt’s not an error it’s a restriction.
“This sets the maximum time in seconds a script is allowed to run before it is terminated by the parser. This helps prevent poorly written scripts from tying up the server. The default setting is 30.”
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.info.php#ini.max-execution-timeIf you have access to php.ini you can change this value. If you are hosted… good luck asking them.

In reply to: Avoiding nested php codeThere is no nested PHP code in the entire post. “Nested” php will always give you an error message.
Gregh just posted a link to an alternative syntax in php. That doesn’t mean the “standard” if-else doesn’t work.
(btw: Your last code snippet is completely messed up.)
