Samgreen–thanks, the target audience is about 250 persons, each of whom I reckon will keep in touch as committed readers, thus the long scroll should not be an issue for them.

Ivovic–that’s a good idea, I will follow up…though the forum will more likely be webwiz…trying to port/copy the existing UK forum (irish section only) at http://www.lasersb3com onto our own new Irish site, a sort of virtual UDI.

Thanks for your quick reply Moshu, but I cannot get The Loop to work as you suggest.

This attempt renders a blank page with a blank “view source:”

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

The same blank with the vanilla Kubrick:

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class=”post” id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>”>
<h2>“
rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>”>
<?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<small><?php the_time(‘j F Y’) ?>
<!– by <?php the_author() ?> –>
</small>
<div class=”entry”>
<?php the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’); ?>
</div>
<p class=”postmetadata”>Posted in <?php the_category(‘, ‘) ?> |
<?php edit_post_link(‘Edit’, ”, ‘ | ‘); ?>
</p>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

This try renders the “included” html properly, but no luck adding text via Dashboard > Manage Pages > Write Page:

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<?php endif; ?>

Any ideas gratefully receive,

Bob, in Dublin,

Thanks for the suggestion.

Permalinks have always been set to default. Tried your suggestion, selecting a different option which results in “file not found,” so switched back to default = no joy.

Tried with .htaccess in root alongside index.php = no joy.
Tried without .htaccess in root = no joy.

Tried moving .htaccess to /wp/ sub dir alongside all other wordpress files = no joy.

Any other ideas?
