I have no idea what that means, but the site loaks quick-like-a-bunny now! * Sorry that I posted two threads on the same issue…I didn’t know how to correct the placement once I made the error. * Thanks. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [help…please…Error…lost connection to MySQL…SELECT option](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/helppleaseerrorlost-connection-to-mysqlselect-option/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/helppleaseerrorlost-connection-to-mysqlselect-option/#post-497645) * I don’t seem to be the only one having this problem in the last 18 hours…doesn’t that seem a little funny? I see others on this list and perhaps on the problems after installation list…could it be wordpress? * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [help…please…Error…lost connection to MySQL…SELECT option](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/helppleaseerrorlost-connection-to-mysqlselect-option/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/helppleaseerrorlost-connection-to-mysqlselect-option/#post-497639) * The error here seems specific…is it possible that someone tried to register or used an email address already in use and it “hung” the database?

I want to do something similar with my category titles.

I just don’t get it. * Thanks much. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [comment preview](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-preview/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-preview/#post-453941) * I received a reply by email from the maker of the plug-in for LivePreview saying that I “haven’t upload the javascript file (livepreview.js) into the plugins directory.” * I see that file on the server when I look and I see “Comment Live Preview” activated on the Plug-ins management page of my dashboard. * Does anyone know if there is something else I am supposed to activate? * No matter where I place the text in my comments.php file, nothing happens. * Please advise. * Many thanks! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [comment preview](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-preview/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-preview/#post-453893) * Thank you! I had not done this…so no wonder it couldn’t find the Live Preview plug-in. * Now, I’ve tried adding that line a number of different places in my comments. php file and, alas, nothing happens (still). * I am using the default, Kubrick, template. I don’t see a specific
section, so have tried moving the line around here and there. Anything else I should look for? * I’d be happy to send the lines of code if that would help, but I think it’s the standard. * Thanks again. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [category page modifications](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/category-page-modifications/) * [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/category-page-modifications/#post-440959) * I’m sorry that I can’t help you at all, but I was looking through the posts to find information about making each category have a different look when I saw all of these posts made by you….with no responses! I’m sorry…wish I had some expertise to offer. Maybe someone will come soon! * Good luck! * Forum: [Your WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/your-wordpress/) In reply to: [want to see example sites with Static Page as Home](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/want-to-see-example-sites-with-static-page-as-home/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/want-to-see-example-sites-with-static-page-as-home/#post-443277) * Well, I don’t know the exact solution tactic, but strategically I want to have a fixed page that will allow me to change the format on the home page from Kubrick, more of a typical “web” page and less of a “blog” page format. Blogs have posts and comments; web pages can have any number of different topics all of weighted in emphasis by the design, more or less. * I want to direct the reader to a number of choices/topics that might be executed on multiple blogs “under the hood” of that front page. * For example, my current blog hosts stories written by other people with comments by others. I want to add a section for classes that will run on another blog. I want to add daily writing tasks that will run on another blog. And I want all of this seamlessly offered as options to the reader on a front page that doesn’t look like the Kubrick format of my site. * Does that help with what I’m looking for? * Many thanks. * Forum: [Everything else WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/miscellaneous/) In reply to: [moving from wordpress.com to wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-from-wordpresscom-to-wordpressorg-2/) * Thread Starter [vicar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vicar/) * (@vicar) * [19 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-from-wordpresscom-to-wordpressorg-2/#post-431413) * Sad! I was hoping that the options I was suggesting would work out. But better to know now and start out on the right foot.

Sorry to be a bother…I also found lots of posts on support about “favicons” * I gave up doing it myself too quickly…thanks, moshu, for encouraging me to be a little more persistent!
