 * What was the program you ran your old blog with? Also WordPress? or something
   else? (is there anything else 😉 )
 * From other programs to wordpress could be tricky.
    From other categories to wordpress
   categories require a few steps, but should be doable.

 * Additionally, there is also an unreleased plugin in the works
    [http://www.cregy.co.uk/wp-shop/](http://www.cregy.co.uk/wp-shop/)
   But maybe it’s a commercial plugin, we’ll have to see once it’s released.

 * Remember, it’s the same plugin 🙂
    It’s an 8 as implementation (I never give 
   out 10’s 😉 )
 * Let us know when you’re using the basket widget, b/c it might break the template
   a bit (that’s why it’s no a 9 but an 8)
 * Maybe I’m jumping the gun, but it broke my template.
    Fixed it really simply 
   though, removed a </div> and it was fixed.

 * You’re right. Unfortunately I don’t have the solution and I don’t know whether
   it will be developed in future versions of wordpress. However a google search
   for **wordpress +”user plugin”** gave me a couple of links (ignore the WordPress
   MU links for now…)

 * I know it’s not much, but maybe they push you in the direction of what you need.
   
   I’m also thinking of suggesting to have you combine a forum with wordpress and
   in that way you can see some of the features you prefer. Of course you don’t 
   have to activate / use the forum, but you can see stuff like registration date,
   user IP in the user information.
 * Maybe that helps 🙂

   reply to: [Porting wp-db to use PDO for PHP5 and MDB2 for PHP4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/porting-wp-db-to-use-pdo-for-php5-and-mdb2-for-php4/)

 * I myself was thinking of doing something similar
    A wrapper around wp-db.php 
   would be perfect or something of that nature. On my other sites I wrap the queries
   like so:
 * DB-Wrapper.php
    DB_Query($sql) { if(!validsql) { return ErrorHandler($errormessage);}
   else { return dBQuery($sql) } } dbQuery() is located in DB-MySQL.php (so that
   would probably be wp-db.php then)
 * Don’t know how MDB2 is functioning though, could look into it.
    PDO is for PHP5,
   maybe something PHP4 compatible is possible too?

 * I see what you mean. The error is:
 * You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your
   MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ” at line 1]
    SELECT cat_id,
   cat_name FROM
 * but the problem is, that the cause of the error is not shown.
    Check your admin
   section to see if your categories are ok (if you have them) (I’m guessing you
   have them since the query asks for cat_id and cat_name)
 * Same goes for some titles that have ‘`or " in them, same for categories that 
   have '`or ” in them.
 * That’s it for now 🙂

 * The message that WordPress gives comes from the function select($db) in the wp-
   db.php file.
 * It handles the standard mysql_select_db function. There is one advantage. They
   escape the error message that PHP / MySQL give by appending the @ in front of
   the function (at least, my version of WordPress does that)
 * Advice is to:
    **open** wp-db.php **find** if (!@mysql_select_db($db, $this->
   dbh)) { (line 90) **replace with** if (!mysql_select_db($db, $this->dbh)) { (
   line 90)
 * Hopefully mysql will give you a more precize error message. But you should really
   double check if the database wp_wrdp1 exists.
