In reply to: cant install plug insHave you tried multiple plugins? Which plugin is getting that result?
It may be an issue with the plugin. I also know that certain hosts give you trouble when using the Automatic Installer for plugins and the Upgrade system.

In reply to: WordPress 3.1 bugged?Odd error, I’ve been running 3.1 since it came out and don’t have that issue.
It might be your server, who’s hosting it?

In reply to: Suddenly receiving error messagesNot sure if its the cause of a failed upgrade. Have you tried renaming your Plugins folder and Active Theme folder in order to get them to deactivate? While it will take your site down, it will also cause wordpress to deactivate all plugins and revert to the default theme (TwentyTen).
If that doesn’t work, I’d suggest doing a backup of the entire site, and taking note of all your customizations (Your theme, plugins, etc) and then do a vanilla install.

In reply to: how to remove comments feature on twenty ten 1.2Head to settings, discussion and tell it not to allow comments on new articles.
Then, if you want to get rid of the code entirely, head to the twenty ten theme folder and look for single-loop.php and loop-page.php. Find the following:
<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>Delete that (or comment it out, like this:
<?php //comments_template( '', true ); ?>and no more comments!

In reply to: what to doWell there’s a few possibilities. It could be older posts, featured posts, or some sort of widget area thats calling posts.
If you aren’t really into looking at the PHP, you can look at my profile (click on my username to the right), send me an email at my website and I’ll take a look at it for you.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: what to doIt looks like the bottom portion is a custom query for past or “featured” posts.
Really your best bet is to check your index.php and see what its calling. What are you trying to change it to have?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: what to doYou’ll have to link us to it so we can give you a more accurate answer, but I’d assume just look for the code in index.php of your theme.
Link us up and I’ll see what I can find.

In reply to: Voting Plugin Fliter for Posting to ContentFixed it:
if (get_option('ilt_onPage') == '1') { function putILikeThis($content) { if(!is_feed() && !is_page() && in_category('revocations') ) { $likethisbox= getILikeThis('put'); } return $likethisbox . $content; } add_filter('the_content', 'putILikeThis'); }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: blog Home too longIt depends on what theme you are using. You want to find something that looks like this in your index.php theme file:
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <?php the_title ?> <?php the_content ?> <? endwhile; ?>For the homepage, you want to call the_excerpt. Again, depending on your theme you could do this:
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <?php the_title ?> <?php if(is_front_page()){ //if its the homepage... the_excerpt(); //...get the excerpt. } else { //Not the homepage? then... the_content(); //...get all the content } ?> <?php endwhile; ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Where is that sharing option?I believe that is either a plugin or a wordpress.com feature. This is wordpress.org, the self maintained self hosted solution 🙂

In reply to: White search pageI think the first line should be:
<?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Need help with structure of “multi-blog” siteGmac,
I think that the Multi site is the way to go. I’m a developer and theres nothing better than spinning off a “test” site or a clients mock up and test site right under my main domain.
I think for multiple podcasting sites (where your domain is “awesomecasts.com” and a show is called “coolcast”) this is perfect. It allows you to allocate a separate system to your podcast hosts/creators while keeping it under one branch. Rather than having multiple wordpress sites, one network allows you to blanket upgrade and manipulate all the sites (think of having 15 wordpress sites that all need upgrading!)
But maybe I’m just a big fan of the networking abilities of WP.
