 * The solution was resetting my permalinks by saving the settings under Permalink

 * I’ve gone into myphpadmin and found that the wp_postmeta table has crashed:
 * > #145 – Table ‘./db94481_gazette/wp_postmeta’ is marked as crashed and should
   > be repaired
 * This would explain thumbnails and custom field crashes, right?
 * Now investigating how exactly we can repair it.

 * They’ve indicated GD Library is up and running properly. They also made a fresh
   WordPress install on my Grid-Server and couldn’t recreate the problem.
 * Could this be a problem with the functions.php file?

 * Thanks esmi, I’ve asked my host and I’ll post what they say when they back to
   me.
 * I’m also noticing that custom fields no longer work and I can’t save new ones.
   None of my custom fields show up in a dropdown box and when I try to type in 
   new ones, it says “Please provide a custom field value” despite me entering the
   value.
 * Another piece of the puzzle. Anyone have ideas?

   there no solution to this?

 * Thanks for your attention Chris. This fixed the problem!
 * This live blog plugin has been incredibly popular. They’re better than live tweeting
   because you can post more often. Better than CoverItLive because you can link
   and add pics. I’m really happy with your work, so thanks.

 * Hi there,
 * I have a similar warning:
 * > Warning: Missing argument 2 for live_blogging_fix_title() in /nfs/c06/h04/mnt/
   > 94481/domains/westerngazette.ca/html/wp-content/plugins/live-blogging/live-
   > blogging.php on line 515
 * I found it’s conflicting with the Popular Posts plugin [http://rmarsh.com/plugins/popular-posts-plugin/](http://rmarsh.com/plugins/popular-posts-plugin/)
 * I removed the popular posts code from my template file and the error doesn’t 
   show up. The live blog worked fine the whole time.
 * Any idea for solutions?

 * Shoot, should have known. Thanks! I was using Redirection to manage 301 and 404
   errors. Turning it off fixed the problem. Thanks again.

 * A note to Canadian users: this plugin won’t show up unless you use American spelling.

 * Looks like I resolved this.
 * When I moved my blog, the URL was incorrect for one of two lines under Settings
   > General
 * WordPress address (URL)
    and Blog address (URL)
 * Needed to be reset to my actual URL. It was set to the MediaTemple s#####.gridserver.

 * Sounds like an issue with the template files. When you go to edit your post, 
   is all the post text there?
 * It’s possible your template uses <?php the_excerpt(); ?> but it needs <?php the_content();?
   > to display the whole post content.
 * If so, go to Appearance > Edit Themes > Single Post and search for the_content
   or the_excerpt

 * Looks like .category-devils and .category-nets can be manipulated individually,
   like:
 *     ```
       .category-devils{
       color:red;
       } 
   
       .category-nets{
       color:blue;
       }
       ```
