The problem still exists but it is a WLW issue as they manipulate the pubDate in their XML to match the date_created_gmt. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [XML Google Maps and subdomains](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-google-maps-and-subdomains/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-google-maps-and-subdomains/#post-664685) * This is not a sitemap plugin it is a Google Map plugin called ‘XML Google Maps’ * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/xml-google-maps/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/xml-google-maps/) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [“Scheduled Entry” time error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-entry-time-error/) * [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-entry-time-error/#post-494085) * I am going to start another thread because I can now duplicate this problem every time and I am not sure it is entirely a WordPress issue. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [“Scheduled Entry” time error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-entry-time-error/) * [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-entry-time-error/#post-494080) * I know this is an older post, but I am having the same issue. In my case here is the relevant data: * WP 2.3.1 GoDaddy hosted PHP 5.x MySQL 5.x EST Timezone (GMT-5) MST Server Timezone( GMT-7) MST MySQL Server Timezone (GMT-7) * I schedule a post for a future time and it does post on the correct day. In every single case it publishes the post 5 hours late. So a post set for 5:30a will not actually post until 10:30. When I look at the post data the post time is what I scheduled 5:30, but the entry for GMT shows the actual GMT time it posted, in this case 15:30. What is really odd is that the other two time entries in the DB for when the post was last modified shows the correct offset for instance the above post was last modified at 11:09 EST and it shows as 16:09 GMT. * I cannot find a resolution in the forum even doing a site: specific search using Google, so that is why I am posting this here. Since it is the same issue **achudnow** has and it is still open I just added to his rather than opening another thread. * One more note. immediately published posts show the correct time in post local and GMT fields. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Whats the best contact form for wordpress 2.3?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/whats-the-best-contact-form-for-wordpress-23/) * [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/whats-the-best-contact-form-for-wordpress-23/#post-655474) * If all you need is a comment form I am using Secure and Accessible PHP Contact Form. You can get it here: [http://green-beast.com/blog/?page_id=136](http://green-beast.com/blog/?page_id=136). It is based on CForms II and allows you to style the comment form any way you would like. I am using it here: [http://blog.hammerton.net/contact/](http://blog.hammerton.net/contact/) with some slight modifications and a custom style. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [XML_Google_Maps fopen error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml_google_maps-fopen-error/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml_google_maps-fopen-error/#post-647533) * I figured out what was going wrong. It seems that WP was handling the 301 redirection wrong, or maybe it was the hosting provider. So as long as I specified the original domain instead of the subdomain it would find the file and then map properly. * /home/content/w/h/e/whereswaldo/html/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/11-2-2007.kml * Should have read: * /home/content/w/h/e/whereswaldo/html/**wordpress/**wp-content/uploads/2007/11/ 11-2-2007.kml * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Is there similar theme available for WordPress and SMF](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-there-similar-theme-available-for-wordpress-and-smf/) * [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [18 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-there-similar-theme-available-for-wordpress-and-smf/#post-528491) * Still, nothing. I have some knowledge of PHP but I am a beginner. WordPress is easier to modify since its mostly CSS stuff. I too would like to know if their is a common theme for both. I am close but too many things are different to make me feel comfortable. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Theme working in Firefox but not in IE 7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/#post-586087) * Okay, I am working on this as we speak. The tips have already produced some benefits. I was able to fix a display issue with one element of the sidebar by doing some simple math. * Now I am scouring the CSS code to to see where all the padding/margins are. I have looked at implementing an IE specific CSS to resolve the issue. I will mark this thread resolved! * Thanks for the assistance everyone. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Theme working in Firefox but not in IE 7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/#post-586079) * Thank you moshu, as I said I am new to this CSS HTML PHP stuff so I am learning by making mistakes and then trying to fix them. I will play around with the values there to see if I can make it work. * Please note that I was trying to integrate into an existing site, the web was coded for us by someone else and I am pretty sure they never really validated any of their code. I am in the process of fixing all the errors on the existing site, while also integrating new functions. Sometimes it is overwhelming for a non-programmer. Not only do I have to learn PHP, but I have to figure out what the original programmer was thinking too! * Thank you for the assistance. * I double checked your math `980-34=946` not `846` as you wrote above. `946-220 =726` which is less than the original `#content width: 711px;` I had originally. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Clean, modern theme for WordPress beginner modification](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clean-modern-theme-for-wordpress-beginner-modification/) * [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clean-modern-theme-for-wordpress-beginner-modification/#post-584939) * Actually, I have been looking for the same thing. It doesn’t really have to be a simple theme. If someone would fully document a theme it would be even better. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Theme working in Firefox but not in IE 7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/#post-586072) * skrolikowski, `float: left;` was in both `#sidebar` and `#content` already. Even took content down to 300px, still not working. * I added the clear: none to `#wrapper #content` and `#sidebar`. The only other place a `clear` directive is given is under `#footer_clear` where it is `clear: both;`. I am going to continue searching, but what I am finding is a lot of issues with IE6 or earlier but none with IE7. I will move to another PC to check IE6 to see if it suffers from the same issues. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Theme working in Firefox but not in IE 7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/) * Thread Starter [whereswaldo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whereswaldo/) * (@whereswaldo) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-working-in-firefox-but-not-in-ie-7/#post-586029) * Jeremy thank you for the suggestion. * Ok, here is what I have tried. First in the wrapper div I have tried every number other than 100%, at 99% and below the theme stops working in Firefox and behaves the same as IE. At 100% and above there seem to be no difference. * The content div was lowered 5px at a time from the original 711px to 705px, then to 700px, then 695px and finally 690px. In all cases it made the content narrower but did not move it up into the correct section in IE. In other words Firefox was ok with the changes, but IE didn’t care. * I will continue to search this message board but hope that someone can provide more tidbits to help me resolve this issue. * I am reluctant to put in too much content in until I can get this resolved.
