In reply to: Link to comment pop up from single.phpI have a similar question: How do I get a pop-up window for comments when is_page() returns true?
According to the docs for comments_popup_link() this function does nothing if is_page() (or is_single()) returns true. Is there a way around this? Do I need to set a global variable? Maybe hack the query object?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

In reply to: Editor “fixes” things. Why?sorry, forgot about putting the tages in backticks. The tag mentioned in the third point is
<br />.Well I finally got it too work after fighting with the editor tooth and nail. I wrapped the content in a div with its own style attribute that defines the background. You can see the results here: http://errandexprss.com/sandbox/.
The big problem is that the editor keeps “fixing” things everytime I save. Sometimes the div would disappear, othertimes it would turn into a p tag and wrap only the first paragraph. Very frustrating.
Is there a way to put the background directly into the post/page so it will still be there even if the theme changes? Using 2.2.1, I’ve tried to insert a div but the editor removes it.
Thanks

In reply to: images won’t show wordpress’s fault! lol maybe someone could help ?oops!
Correction: You can specify a directory structure for uploads based on dates under Options > Misc. Still, it would be nice to have an “images” folder, a “pub” folder and so on.

In reply to: images won’t show wordpress’s fault! lol maybe someone could help ?Hi,
I’m also a newbie having the same problem. Unfortunately, you can’t specify an image folder that way (I really wish I could). Instead you have to use the Upload utilty that’s on the write post/write page panels. After uploading, you select how the graphic is to be displayed and how you want to link to the graphic then click “Send to Editor”.
The big gotcha is that *everything* goes into one big uploads folder. That includes inline graphics, gallery images, tar files that others can download. Everything.
A way to specify the upload location on a case-by-case basis would be great.
A second (and perhaps trivial) problem is that the image src is specified as an absolute URL. You can’t use “images/my_graphic.png”. I know, picky picky, lol.
