Could you elaborate more on this. “Pages will allow for commenting, you will just need to be sure the template provides for it” * I am using the default theme and still my pages does not allow for commenting( I checked “Allow Comments” in the admin panel) * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Tweaking WordPress for personal website](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/tweaking-wordpress-for-personal-website/) * Thread Starter [sumitr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumitr/) * (@sumitr) * [20 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/tweaking-wordpress-for-personal-website/#post-238353) * I will give a simple example to explain why I need this * Suppose I divide all my content into 10 blocks – C1,C2 … C10 * Now I want to display these content on three pages such that page 1 contains C1,C2,C3 page 2 contains C4,C5,C6 and page 3 contains C7,C8,C9,C10 and page 3 is password protected * Using Post ————– The only way I could figure out to do this is to have all C1… C10 as individual posts and three categories page1, page2, page2. So while creating the post I can assign them to appropriate category. The problem occurs with the password protected page. A user has to type in password for each of C7, C8,C9, C10 to see the page completely * Using Pages —————- I don’t know if there is a way to do the same with Page ( post_status=”static”). I was wondering if I can do the same with pages so my previous question of iterating over pages. * Q1: Is there a better way to do it? * Q2: However if it is possible to password protect categories too, then the above would be quite easy. I see there isn’t any such field in wp_categories. Any pointers to where in the code should I look around to add this functionality? * Q3: Is it possible to iterate over all the posts from within a Page (static page) i.e database entries with post_status=publish? It seems that when one click on the any static page link eventually wp-blog-header.php is invoked with a page_id = argument that restricts the result of the sql query by adding the appropriate where clause. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Tweaking WordPress for personal website](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/tweaking-wordpress-for-personal-website/) * Thread Starter [sumitr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumitr/) * (@sumitr) * [20 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/tweaking-wordpress-for-personal-website/#post-238273) * Hi I read all the links that you suggested. Let me ask specific question as I think that would be quicker. * Does the look in page.php ever go beyond one iteration. For e.g my page.php has these lines *

”> * Could there be a case when

”> is executed twice i.e. the loop iterates more than one. ( For posts it does but will it ever iterate for “Pages” * Thanks, Sumit * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks don’t work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-dont-work-1-2/) * Thread Starter [sumitr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumitr/) * (@sumitr) * [20 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-dont-work-1-2/#post-238241) * I tried the above structure: /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ and category base as blank * I then created a new post and tried to view it and again got the same error. * (I changed my httpd.conf (to allow override) and restarted both mysld and httpd) * Once I set the structure to blank in permalinks all my posts and page become accesible. * Thanks, Sumit * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Error establishing a database connection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-establishing-a-database-connection-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-2/) * Thread Starter [sumitr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumitr/) * (@sumitr) * [20 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-establishing-a-database-connection-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-2/#post-232221) * Solved.
