In reply to: ‘Please update now’ killed the blog. Any HELP appreciated.Why in the world wouldn’t you have a copy of your customized theme? That’s standard procedure. You know, to backup everything before you make any changes? It’s not WordPresses fault YOU didn’t follow standard procedure. Seriously? You actually SAID you didn’t read everything before you clicked to update and then said WordPress sucks. Because YOU didn’t read everything? People make me twitch. Sigh.

In reply to: Query Children Of A Page IssuePS: I decided to just show excerpts which is why I don’t have it set up to show a full post and then excepts as I originally stated.

In reply to: Query Children Of A Page IssueThank you so much for your responses!
Ok, if I use this:
<?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts('post_type=page&post_parent=4' . '&paged=' . $paged . '&posts_per_page=10'); ?>no posts show up at all. I found out from my zillions of tests trying to figure this out that I can’t use post_type=page — I have to use static=true. Then the posts show up but there’s still no pagination.
Here’s my code in it’s entirety. Maybe I’m doing something wrong somewhere else?

In reply to: Custom Titles For Single.phpFigured it out. Here’s the solution if anyone’s interested:
<?php if (in_category('7')) { ?> <p><span class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></span></p> <?php } else { ?> <p><span class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></span><br /> <span class="date"><?php the_time('l') ?> — <?php the_time('F jS Y') ?></span></p> <?php } ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Holy Messed Up Admin Filtering Batman!Thank you so much, that worked perfectly.
Well if I understand what you mean with the category template it wouldn’t be easier. The fiction section isn’t a category page. Its a page in which I’ve set up multiple loops to pull up the titles of the pieces in several categories. I have them all in one main “fiction” category but they’re also in separate categories like short stories, bits & pieces, etc. And I want all the fiction excluded from everything.
Thanks again 🙂

In reply to: IE vs. Firefox – format and photo issue!As esmi said, you have some validation errors. Fixing those just might clear up the problem. I’d like to help more but your site looks just fine in both FF and IE for me so I can’t see the issue to know how to fix it. Sorry :\

In reply to: totally lost..What confused me (and still does) is all the different username and passwords
I’m going to guess what you meant by that is that you have a username and password here and possibly a username and password at wordpress.com and for some reason you thought you’d use one or both with your self hosted blog? There’s nothing to be confused about. These are 3 seperate things so of course they have separate usernames and passwords.
