Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: OLD SQL db & New InstallationI am not questioning you but the same password as your control panel – that is not always the case. When a database is set up the username/password are often quite different from anything else. Could you check that again just to be sure – and maybe even create a new user and password – attach to the db with full privileges just to make sure?

In reply to: Run existing html site while testing WP in root??It is probably easiest to install th WP site into a subdomain.
Copy all the content in from your old site and backup your database and then when you are finished we can guide you through the transfer to the root procedure.

In reply to: OLD SQL db & New InstallationThe hosts have most likely installed WP and built a new WP [empty] database. You need to dump that one completely and import your old one in its place. It will then ask for it to be upgraded [a simple click in most instances].

In reply to: Div height backgroundI would love to give you an easy answer, but there really isn’t one.
However, I would recommend you look at this site as a starting point and work from there.

In reply to: Exerpts in Classic themeIt would appear that you are pasting text from a Microsoft application such as Word?
If you copy your text to a text editor first or into the Code panel rather than the Visual, you may be able to strip the Word coding out and this will, in all probability, allow the MORE tag to function correctly.

In reply to: Theme Previews – sample content?I’ve actually often wondered about that myself, having written most of the original content for the theme viewer a long, long time ago. I keep seeing the same image [those glasses on a piece of text] and thinking to myself, why not change it to something better now?
Anyway, I digress.
I think they must simply copy it into their posts. It saves having to think of new stuff I guess and often when you create themes, by the time you get around to adding new content, you have had enough and just want to get it released. Copying makes it easy.

In reply to: Images are pushing over other postsSomewhere in your second post you have added a left align by the looks of it. Check through your post [in code preferably] and see what kind of alignment is happening with your text and/or images.
Smilies -if you are not putting them in deliberately are coming from you typing a combination of characters [:)]or you have a plugin forcing them?

In reply to: SQL ErrorIt worked before, although some plugins have been installed since.
Have you tried uninstalling ALL of your plugins and then adding them back one by one to see if the problem is eliminated?

In reply to: Where are posts saved?You can get to your database via phpmyadmin which is usually located somewhere within your mysql area of your control panel.
