 * Daisama,
    I looked at you sight and it looked like you got things working. Was
   fixing your html all you needed to do? Could you explain any other things that
   you might have need to fix? Also could you mark this post as resolved if everything
   is done? Thanks!

 * I didn’t realise that you could have ‘nian’ and ‘ye’ in the vars and output them
   too. Cool! You could probably write a small function that will convert ‘1,2,3…’
   to ‘yi, er, san…’.
 * then you would get: 二〇〇六年六月
 * BTW, could you mark this post resolved.

 * What sort of page is this? Index? Archive? Page? Post? Category? The codex states:
 * If the quicktag <!–more–> is used in a post to designate the “cut-off” point 
   for the post to be excerpted, the_content() tag will only show the excerpt up
   to the <!–more–> quicktag point on non-single/non-permalink post pages.
 * You may want to try the_excerpt() instead.

 * Daisama,
 * I went to look at your site and I don’t think you are having a problem with ajax
   features. It looks more like the html code that you have is not correct. While
   most things still appear in the browser the way you have things set up is wrong.
   For example the polls div element in encased in a ul element. and is later followed
   by a li. this should not be the case. use the w3c validator and fix your html
   first. I think you’ll find that most of your problems will disappear.

 * Tri-fusion,
 * That is a weird problem that you have. Sound like there could be a javascript
   error when you are trying to insert an image. What type of browser and browser
   version are you using? Do you see any javascript errors on the browser status
   bar below?

 * M,
 * The thumbnails are created so that you can view it from within the control panel
   when you are creating a post. however if you are insistent that you don’t want
   it, you can comment out the section of code that creates it. It is founf in the‘
   inline-uploading.php’ file under ‘wp-admin’. You’ll want to comment out lines
   87 to 100. They look like the following:
 *  if ( $imagedata[‘width’] * $imagedata[‘height’] < 3 * 1024 * 1024 ) {
    if ( 
   $imagedata[‘width’] > 128 && $imagedata[‘width’] >= $imagedata[‘height’] * 4 /
   3 ) $thumb = wp_create_thumbnail($file, 128); elseif ( $imagedata[‘height’] >
   96 ) $thumb = wp_create_thumbnail($file, 96);
 *  if ( @file_exists($thumb) ) {
    $newdata = $imagedata; $newdata[‘thumb’] = basename(
   $thumb); update_post_meta($id, ‘_wp_attachment_metadata’, $newdata, $imagedata);}
   else { $error = $thumb; } }
 * However I’m not sure if there are side effects to this so do it with caution.

 * If you guys are using somesort of host that gives you access like cpanel or such.
   The database name that is created will be prefixed with your account name. For
   example if your account name is ‘xyzinc’ and your database name is ‘blog’, it
   would create a database called ‘xyzinc_blog’. I’m not sure if this is your problem
   but I thought I’d mention it because people overlook it sometimes since it doesn’t
   affect your phpMyAdmin access.

 * Sugo,
    Try searching the codex next time. There is alot of good information there
   contributed by many volunteers. Anyhow the stuff you are looking for is here:

 * Yes we do, but most of us just make a copy of the index.php file and rename the
   copy to archive.php. Then we just edit it to make it do what we want for archives.

 * Unfortunately the finction doesn’t have the ability to do this. However you should
   be able to use get_permalink or the_permalink within the page to generate the
   link you want. The documentation for it is here:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_permalink](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_permalink)
   
   [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_permalink](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_permalink)
 * I think that should solve your problems. Remember to mark this post as resolved.
   Thanks!

 * lol… Don’t worry about it… it happens to the best of us… However I really wouldn’t
   know where to begin with the renaming of themes… ;p
 * Good to know you got things fixed… but I’m not sure if I’ll get to Davis… just
   got back from LA and am heading to Singapore in 2 days time for work… It’ll be
   a while before I get back.
 * Anyhow, I’m just glad you sorted it out. BTW, you may want to mark this post 
   resolved so that other don’t have problems sifting through the open topics. Also
   remember to delete the files you left in the misc folder.
 * Cheers!
