In reply to: Rogue Custom Field KeysThanks for the reply. I will try to track them down. I’m pretty sure I never entered them manually. This has happened on two sites. Since they are all video links, my assumption is still that the video plugin (WP Video) I was using had something to do with it.

In reply to: Custom Field ErrorStrange …. for absolutely no reason whatsoever, it seems to be working now. I didn’t change anything. So I’ll just keep my eyes on it. Darned Gremlins.

In reply to: Custom Field ErrorI get the error on the write post page. When I try to assign a custom field. I choose ‘thumbnail’ from my dropdown box and enter the value (the URL for the image) as I always did. then I hit add custom field. This used to work in 2.5, now I get that ‘undefined error’. It never even adds the field to the post. So I doubt this has to do with the theme, since the error occurs while I’m still in the WordPress interface.

In reply to: Customized Lists on a Static HomepageHey, I figured it out.
<?php query_posts(‘showposts=6&cat=-13’); ?>
Did the trick.

In reply to: Customized Lists on a Static HomepageNo problem. Your tutorial is helping me greatly. I do have one other question. Is there an easy way to list all but one category?
Take a look at my test page (it’s a bit of a mess. I’m still working on the layout). http://www.stephenbailey.com/test-page/
In the box under “Featured Posts” I’d like to simply exclude the category called ‘updates’. Right now I’m using the following to list posts from all categories:
<?php query_posts(‘showposts=6’); ?>
Any advice?

In reply to: Customized Lists on a Static HomepageThanks so much. Just ran a couple of tests, and this looks like just what I needed.
I did notice one problem in your snippet. When I used this:
<?php query_posts(‘category_name=news&showposts=5’); ?>It did not show the correct number of posts. I changed it to:
<?php query_posts(‘category_name=news&showposts=5’); ?>…and it worked fine.
Thanks again,

In reply to: AWSOM PixGallery ThumbnailsHey … good news. I changed the test site so the blog homepage is on the root directory. All seems well with the thumbs and custom links. Now comes the massive task of moving all of my content to WordPress. Wish me luck. Thanks for all your help.
Cheers,

In reply to: AWSOM PixGallery ThumbnailsWhat I’m gonna do is set this test site up without the subfolder and see if that does the trick. I should get to that in the next day or so. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks again.

In reply to: AWSOM PixGallery ThumbnailsYep, I see what you’re saying. It works fine if I shut off the custom links. Hmmm. I’ll have to play with it a little more. The site I’m going to use this on needs to be SEO friendly. So custom links are pretty much a must. Thanks for your help. I’ll let you know how it goes.

In reply to: AWSOM PixGallery ThumbnailsHey, thanks for the reply. Nope, changing the cache address doesn’t work. If I place the / at the beginning I don’t see any thumbs. Do you think it’s just because I have WP set up in a sub-directory? Because this is just a test site and it won’t be in a sub-directory on my main site when I go live. Do you have examples of sites using this? I’d love to see how other people have it set up so I can get it to work. Except for this little glitch, I love the plug-in, it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for.
