In reply to: Hackers mailing lists (still down according to Podz)By all accounts, at least the tester’s list is supposed to be working – but every single time I’ve ever tried to signup for any of the mailing lists, I get an error page that says “The precondition on the request for the URL /mailman/subscribe/wp-testers evaluated to false” – and I mean *every* time, no matter what list I try to sign up for.

In reply to: Problem with default templateRoot: yup, I’m using the Pollux style on Gemini right now from NTU 🙂 Modified it slightly to get my asides and moblog things going. I will eventually be finished my Passioni theme though – this is just an interim solution for me. I love Gemini 😀

In reply to: Problem with default template“Spaghettied” – coder slang 😉 Means code all over the place, not easy for most people to follow. I’ve always hated two things about Kubrick – the CSS file, and the CSS in the
index.php. There’s absolutely no reason for it to require CSS code inline. Just more spaghetti to confuse people who don’t know CSS very well.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Problem with default templateHe probably means a well-designed (internally) theme. Kubrick looks purty, but it’s pretty spaghettied inside and breaks pretty easily if you do the wrong thing with it.

In reply to: Firefox vs. IE CSSAND, I just noticed this – Firefox is not applying the stylesheets because it thinks their MIME type is “text/plain”, not “text/css”.
I have no idea why it would work on some pages and not others though – that problem is usually caused because the server doesn’t recognize “text/css” as a valid MIME type, but that would cause all stylesheets to be sent as “text/plain”…

In reply to: Firefox vs. IE CSSreplace your
@importline with this and try it (for the middle link above):@import "http://www.delirity.com/wp-layout.css";that exact code has worked for me countless times, and is, as far as I know, XHTML Strict compliant.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Firefox vs. IE CSSTwo things to check-see. The
@importshould have quotation marks around the URI for the stylesheet. Other thing is to rename the.htaccessfile (if it exists) and see if that fixes the problem.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Enable sending referrersI’m not sure what you mean about your Firefox setting being at “2”, but if you go to Tools/Options and click on the Privacy image, you’ll see Cookies listed on the right – click it open and make sure that “Allow sites to set cookies” is checked. If it isn’t, make sure your domain is in the exceptions list.
If that doesn’t help, try removing your plugins (manually – like delete them out of the
pluginsfolder) and see if it works.And if *that* doesn’t work, delete the
/wp-adminfolder completely and re-upload it from your computer (ideally, from a freshly unzipped archive of the version of WP you’re using).Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Enable sending referrersAnd you’ve made sure that your domain isn’t blocked from saving cookies by either Firefox or the Norton Firewall?
And does it occur on just the Plugins page, or does it happen on other pages too?

In reply to: WP TshirtNo worries Ryan, I was just pointing out that most bands sell there merch (like shirts) from a website, no *only* at shows, so there’s really no difference.
While I’m on the topic, I’m not sure I’d buy a shirt with just the WordPress logo (such as it is) on it. It might be much more effective to have something else as the focal point, and have WordPress in smaller letters, or even on the back. Maybe a cartoon or parody on the front (tasteful, though, not cheesy – or maybe cheesy if that’s your thing too) that illustrates a prime blogging target.
Actually, I probably would buy the shirt. Been there, done that already, might as well go the whole 9 yards 🙂

In reply to: WP TshirtThere are probably 50 places in any large city that’ll do the printing at a good cost, you can buy the shirts in sets as small as 10 (usually – depends on where you go), and as long as shipping is said to be extra (like add $4 for post to US/Canada, $8 overseas – don’t quote me, I haven’t looked the shipping costs up), it can be covered.
Bascially, if 1 person can throw $100 up-front to doing it (to buy maybe 10 or 15 shirts of various sizes) and whip together a quick script to keep track of things, it can be done. Hell, there’s no reason why people can’t pre-order the shirts as long as a refund is guaranteed if no shirts get made.

In reply to: WP TshirtCafepress charges such high wholesale prices that it’s hard for Joe Average to actually make money from selling stuff there, unless he only wants about $1. And while Cafepresses shirts are decent quality, the designs are essentially dyed onto them, so the wash out relatively quickly.
It’s WAY more cost effective to get proper shirts done from a local company.
For example, a local band in town here sells shirts for $15 CDN. They make about $8 per shirt. At cafepress, that same shirt would have to be $15 US just to make $1. This band also sells hoodies for $45 and are making about $25 off them.
Anyways, I wouldn’t buy anything from Cafepress – the prices are too high and the quality is too low.

In reply to: Payment For WordPress Project HelpYup, just change the date on the post (might need to turn Advanced Controls on in the Options/Writing page) to the date you want the article to appear. It should remain invisible until then.

In reply to: <!–more–> teaser tag not workingThe MORE tag won’t work if you’re only displaying a single post. This bug has been fixed in the current CVS version, and will also work properly in WordPress 1.5.1 when it’s released.
