  • well I installed this a few months ago and it din’t work. I deactivated but kept and I’ve gone thru several upgrades so I decided to try it again. so now I make the comment, and I have to click start to play the game and it was actually a little tricky to know just what was a beauty product and what wasn’t and even trickier to be able to latch on to the thin thing, all of which I would find annoying. But the deal breaker is I did eventually get all the beauty things into the purse and then I clicked continue and nothing happens for a while so I click it again and it said we were unable to verify you are human. I can’t remember if that’s what happened the last time, I haven’t got time for tricky analysis and work arounds so maybe i’ll try again in a few more rounds. πŸ™‚ it’s a great idea.

    and does it make it like wordpress so that once they already have a comment approved they don’t have to do any verification any more.

    OK I think I will refrain from installing this plugin for the time being although I think it is a very good IDEA. I’m using 3.4.2 Multisite. I follow this thread and hope to see it working for 3.4.2 soon.

    Did that, can tweak a few things from there, but not like the old days where I could see a list of template files and edit their code.

    Well it’s all fine for me cuz I log in to the server and edit the file directly and It’s all in svn if it blows everything up (RARELY) I revert to previous version. But this has definitely changed!!!!

    Thank you that’s brilliant. My theme is my own child theme of comicpress. It does not have any specific category files but it does have archive.php which I believe is the one being used. I actually made a mistake in the question, I meant to say /tag/whatever But I think it uses archive for that too.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I ask, because somebody new commented oh I see UR using jetpack, what plugin did you use, (kind of nonsensical, because the plugin I use is jetpack!!) just trying to ascertain if the comment is spam. I can’t see very many people digging into the HTML just to see if I use jetpack or not. I’m gonna spam it, because I’d rather the comments talked about the subject matter of the blog, and I don’t feel like sharing tech details in a public reply anyway.

    If I had never been able to edit directly thru the management panel on Multisite I wouldn’t be asking where that ability had gone. I found it a timesaver and an organizational aid to be able to do a little tweak thru WP that I knew was not gonna break anything. You can’t hang yourself any worse using wordpress than you can by downloading, tweaking, and re uploading. I know the ability was there in 3.01. And I can work around it if it no longer is so it’s not a dealbreaker. I don’t know what MC stands for. Thank you very much for your time.

    BTW I really decry this practice of making it extremely difficult or impossible for you to get at the “bare metal.” This is Microsoft’s approach. Let’s make everybody do it exactly the same….. It’s like they’re saying “We have determined that you should only tweak X and Y and you’re too dumb to understand code so we have saved you from yourself.” I’ve always been a bare metal girl and GUI’s never cover all the getting under the hood I want to do. I’m fine with more and better GUI’s but I always want the option to go naked.

    I don’t have Appearance->custom. I have Appearance->Theme, when clicked takes me to the theme page, and now there is a customize link, which takes me to a GUI for changing the background, menus etc. I haven’t fallen into an upsell link, though it wouldn’t suprise me. Exactly what CSS & fonts are you talking about?

    Not so my friend. I was using it regularly on multisite a couple of versions back. I don’t normally edit wordpress core, only theme child files.

    just installed 3.4.1 hoping it would fix the problem but no. Well I guess I’ll be editing the child theme files with vim directly on the server for the time being — the theme html/css editor only offers the convenience of not having to SSH to the server but other than that you can still hang yourself pretty much the same by editing the theme.

    Ugh. Now I gave the admin for comix all network privileges and now when I try to type the URL for theme editor directly it redirects to the network theme editor.

    Thread Starter tixrus

    (@tixrus)

    OK here is a clue. The site in question is on WP-MS. When logged in as the grand poobah of the network, typing comix.dorkage.net/theme-editor.php redirects to the theme editor for the main network site, not the comix site. When logged in as the grand poobah of everything and I admin the comix site as that, I still can’t see the Edit menu item under Appearance. I temporarily changed to the default theme. Nothing. I logged out the grand poobah, cleared the cache and logged in as just the admin for comix site only. Now when I tried the theme-editor.php URL for THAT subdomain, it says I don’t have sufficient privileges to do that. How do I grant myself that permission, being, after all, (said with a shy self deprecating pride) my excellency the master grand poobah of the entire dorkage network.

    I have a similar problem. Other people seem to be able to comment on my site http://comix.dorkage.net but when I visit a page & I’m logged in, I click on the comment box and it says you are commenting using your Tix-Comix account & has my avatar already there (that is correct because I am logged in.) So I write the comment and press submit and it says WordPress error you didn’t fill out your name etc. Well it doesn’t give me a chance to, unless I log out.

    Nobody answered my post but I solved this.

    Thank you that’s the answer I was looking for. The key is that the wp stats needs a javascript to run in order to count a HTTP request and auto POST “visits” don’t have that so they don’t count. I would have to look at something more primitive like awstats to see how much bandwidth was being wasted on spam.
