Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: problem with installMight want to check your upload and make sure all files and directories are there. The missing Logo image on the first page is a bad omen
I’m not sure what you mean by that, the install page is on the main page which is what SHOULD be there since it hasn’t been installed yet.
It isn’t http://www.rknstudio.com/install.php it’s http://www.rknstudio.com/wp-admin/install.php
and enter the database name and email address
You don’t enter the database name on the install screen you enter the blog name. Don’t know if that might be part of the problem or not.
But that shouldn’t make a difference, right?
Yes it does make a difference. You have to have the host linked correctly for things to work correctly.

In reply to: missing wordpress directories?What’s your URL? If the theme you’re using is called “basic” it must be something you uploaded because the only 2 themes that are in a fresh install are the ones you mentioned — default and classic

In reply to: How to set WordPress timeThat’s where you change the time. It will show you what time is it UTC and you choose either plus or minus what you need to set your time. For instance…. right now the UTC time is 5:42AM. MY time it’s 10:42PM so I need to choose UTC -7 because there’s a 7 hour difference.

In reply to: Can a static page have php commands?I configured the smartarchives.php file to point to the new page
It should be pointed to the archives.txt, not the page.
I dont understand what the archives.txt does or where it comes into the picture
It contains the links to the archives which smartarchives.php generates.
Should I create an archives.txt page uploaded it to the theme root directory and point the smartarchives.php file to it?
Yes — but it doesn’t have to be in the theme folder, you can upload it wherever you want.
Is the archives.txt file supposed to have a the <?php displayArchives(); ?> call?
No.
Ok…you have the plugins uploaded and activated. Good. Now, create a page. Put:
<?php displayArchives(); ?>in that page and save it. Create a .txt file called archives and upload it wherever you want on your server. In the smartarchives.php plugin file, put the correct path to wherever you uploaded the archives.txt. It will look something like this:
$file = ‘\home\username\public_html\archives.txt’;
There are 2 lines where you have to do this.
Publish a post and your archives page will be populated. Now view the page you created 🙂

In reply to: How can I change how archived and categorized materials display?Do I have to change it in archives.php also
generally speaking, it shouldn’t even be in archives.php.

In reply to: Can a static page have php commands?I intstalled both plug-ins created the static page with the php call and I get a “Could Not Read File” error.
Are you sure the path to the archives.txt is correct in the smartarchives.php? Also, you need to create a blank .txt file called archives.txt and upload it wherever you specified in the smartarchives.php. “Could Not Read File” ” sometimes shows up until you publish a new post.
Does the exec-php plugin present a security problem?
Not that I’m aware of.

In reply to: How can I change how archived and categorized materials display?in the page.php file
That would change pages, not archives. You need to change the archive.php file.

In reply to: Can a static page have php commands?You might try this plugin (click the archives link on the upper right to see what it looks like — it can be edited to look like you want) which will then need this plugin to work 🙂

In reply to: Why does out of place text appears at the top of my blog posts?Those are the last and next posts. You can remove THEM in the single.php by removing:
<div class="navigation"> <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('« %link') ?></div> <div class="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link »') ?></div> </div>
