In reply to: [Plugin: WP-Polls] Votes not showing in SafariHmm… something funny is going on. I have it set to use cookies, but I just voted on a fresh computer, and it lets me vote a second time:
See here:

Thanks!

In reply to: [Plugin: WP-Polls] Votes not showing in SafariHmm… yeah, seems to work okay. God only knows what that JS is doing on my theme, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s screwing something up.
Now that I have your attention – there’s another little thing.
People are complaining that they’re voting for the first time and getting a message that they’ve already voted. I had tracking on for “cookie and IP” so the logical thing I can think of is that someone in the same office (ie, same IP) might have voted. Would that cause this problem? I switched it to just cookie and now even I seem to be able to vote again…hopefully I didn’t screw it up worse.

In reply to: Duplicate votes on pollsI have the same problem. There’s no explanation for what the difference is between the various logging methods, as far as I can tell. Not even sure if it matters!

In reply to: Upgrade Trouble… Permissions?and then it worked! Freakshow! I haven’t changed a thing, just waited a couple days and randomly tried again. Suggessful upgrade.
Can any server people out there tell me if this means I have an unstable situation? What the heck would have allowed it to suddenly work after days of failures?

In reply to: Upgrade Trouble… Permissions?Every other similar instance of this I’ve found with the forums search suggests this is permissiosn related, but seems not to be the case with mine. Anyone else have this problem?

In reply to: Working with the RSS WidgetHow does this thing update anyway? does it hold a cache somehow?

In reply to: redirectI would think that’s a feature rather than a bug…. but how do you know it’s happening? I went to your site and opened up a few images and they don’t redirect. Can you post a search query that you know is doing this?

In reply to: Adding nofollow to the BlogrollExcellent, thank you!
Having read the explanation of that theme, it occured to me that it didn’t make any sense to have my blogroll on all pages anyway so I just got rid of it on everything but the front page.

In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)Anyone got any idea what that INDEX key stuff is? I guess there’s nothing wrong with the DB?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)Thanks for your help. SO… I did the “check table” command for all tables on the database and everything says OK. However phpMyAdmin spit out the following at the end:
Problems with indexes of table
bb_meta
More than one INDEX key was created for columnobject_type
Problems with indexes of tablewp_comments
More than one INDEX key was created for columncomment_approved
Problems with indexes of tablewp_role_scope_rs
More than one INDEX key was created for columnmax_scopeAre any of those things non-standard problems I should be aware of and do something about? I realize two of the three are something else, but the wp-comments one might be related!
Thanks!

In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)Yeah, like I said before, if I switch to the default theme it does fix it (however, the theme didn’t cause problems before). I have yet to try the Javascript concept you mentioned. What’s the best way to repair the database? Is that something I do at the host level via phpMyAdmin? Or is there a plugin for that?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)Utterly bizarre… so I’ve been turning plugins on and off and now, it’s WP-Polls that fixes the problem. But… then suddenly it stopped working. Then turning headspace on/off fixed it… now it’s skunked totally again regardless of the plugins. So there’s something psychotically unstable going on in there.
You think this is just a crap theme?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)What’s puzzling is that the first time I noticed this problem it seemed to be connected to the Headspace Plugin. By disabling that plugin temporarily, the problem went away.
A few weeks later, that solution stopped working. Now, only the theme disabling, as you suggested above, does the trick. Also, I have not made any substantial changes to the theme in a while, so I’ve no idea what changed to cause this, the original theme did not conflict.
By ‘removing’ javascipt, where would I go? Into the headers? There’s loads of JS on the site, mostly caused by plugins. If I so much as touch functions.php it tends to nuke the site, so I’m wary of that approach
Can you think of anything that “accumulates over time” that might be screwing with my set up?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Incomplete Comments Display (on backend)Oh good lord. You’re right. That’s what it is. Why would a theme affect the back end? That seems really dodgy. It did not originally have this problem, so I assume changes I’ve made at some point did this. But god only knows how to diagnose… would you even have a clue as to where to begin?
