In reply to: Post ModerationI know this post is months late, but I found that the Draft Control plugin is dandy for this —

http://asymptomatic.net/2005/12/31/2189/role-manager-plugin/Draft Control makes a new submenu with the drafts. I have literally thousands of users on a blog I’m going to use this on, so I modified it to remove the dropdown that lets you alter the post author.

In reply to: 1.5 smilies not working?It won’t work if it is the first on the line because some of the definitions in vars.php are prefixed with a space. You can alter this behaviour in your wp-config file — just add an array of smileys and their associated icons, without the spaces in front of the emoticons.
Somewhere above the line that says ‘Stop editing,’ put the following:
// smiley array
$wpsmiliestrans = array (
":D" => "grinny.gif",
":-D" => "grinny.gif",
":grin:" => "grinny.gif",
":)" => "smiley.gif",
":-)" => "smiley.gif",
":smile:" => "smiley.gif",
// (keep adding smileys to suit)
":mrgreen:" => "icon_mrgreen.gif",
);Note the lack of spaces in front.
You can copy the array from vars.php and remove those spaces if you need to remember which phrase triggers each icon. It’s easier than editing vars.php, cause that will get overwritten next time you apply an upgrade.
(ETA: this at least worked fine for me; if it buggers things for you, I apologise.)

In reply to: How to direct bots to correct files?Naming feeds with filenames like index.rdf and rss.xml is a common habit, so the bot is probably just guessing.
If you like, you can use an Apache.htaccess
redirect to tell them where they can really be found, like so:
Redirect permanent /index.xml /wp-rss.php
Redirect permanent /rss.xml /wp-rss.php
A good and polite bot will get the hint from the ‘permanent’ directive. A crappy bot will not get the hint and will keep guessing, but it should still find the page anyway.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Categories in URLbut for any sites that want to attract traffic and have higher rankings, SE-friendly URLs are fairly important.
Also, having a clear, logical, navigable site structure can be very helpful for users.How would this not work, though?
example.com/reviews/shrek-2/
– that makes perfect sense to me.
