Yep, I see how that could get all the required information for sure.
The problem I see with that is that the current page with its subpages would not retain its normal order in the page menu.
So if my pages are ordered:
Home
About
History
SalesAnd History has two sub pages, then using the above method means it would have to appear
Home
About
Sales
History
Sub page 1
Sub page 2You could make it either above or below the listing of all the non-current pages, but I can’t see how you’d place it in the normal standard order.
I think, at least for typical users, this would be really confusing if menu items started moving in this fashion.

In reply to: Windows Live Writer HelpDoes anyone know which API WLW uses to access WordPress. I too am looking for something that would be able to edit pages, and I was just wondering how big a job it would be to hack up WordPress to send WLW lists of pages instead of posts.
I pretty much never use posts on one site I admin, but the users are very clueless and using the web interface is just too difficult for them.
Any one have any idea how possible this is?

In reply to: Adding a Capability?And that’s just uploading it to the plugins directory right? cos i’ve done that how I have with the other plugins I’ve installed, but it doesn’t appear in the plugins list for me to activate it.
I’ve looked at the code and can’t see anything wrong with it, but I’m not really sure what to look for that would stop this working. (WP 2.0.5)

In reply to: Adding a Capability?Hmmmm, I looked into applying the patch that is listed here:
http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2301
This seems to imply that the patch fixes the problem (“Brings page caps to parity with posts.”) – i.e. we should now have a n edit_others_pages like we do with edit_others_posts – but obviously we don’t, at least in 2.0.5.
I looked at the code in my 2.0.5 and I found that about half of that patch has been applied, and half hasn’t.
Does anyone know what the official status of this is? (or what it should be?)

In reply to: Adding a Capability?Perhaps, do you know how to use that file? I’ve tried installing it as a plugin but it doesn’t seem to work.
Also, going up a level to the incident report where that file is an attachment, there is also attached a diff file which seems to fix the core of WP. However, this diff was added over a year ago to that thread – but I’m using 2.0.5 to which it obviously hasn’t been included.
Does anyone know if I can patch my WP code with that diff ?

In reply to: editing posts, newlinesSo is there any other way to get this functionality ?

In reply to: Title logo flashes in IE 6So, I managed to find a fix for this issue. I’ll post it because I’ve seen this flashing logo problem on tens and tens of WordPress blogs all over the web.
If you run the following javascript:
document.execCommand(‘BackgroundImageCache’,false,true);
somewhere in the document it will fix it. I’ve put it in the onload event of the BODY element. Works a treat.
Hopefully this will be useful to others.

In reply to: editing posts, newlinesHey man,
thanks for that.
I realise I can do that by editing the stylesheet. The problem is, some of my static pages are quite unique in that I just want to be free to put in an extra line of space here or there if i need it (I have just a few static pages, but with different graphics requirements, and different sub-headings, etc).
If I do it in the stylesheet, then it’ll apply for all p’s in all the Pages, or if I restrict it with classes, well, it just becomes more hassle.
