In reply to: Database Backup ErrorI have the exact same problem. My host was using 4.4.7 but I asked them if I could have 5.1 upon discovering this thread. They’ve installed 5.2 for me and that didn’t work, either. I will go back and once again ask for 5.1.
The strange thing is that PHP 4.4.7 worked perfectly well for me on a different installation. Would the fact that I’m on a VPS make any difference whatsoever to the upgrade that wouldn’t work?
Any help much appreciated.

In reply to: Gr8 Script [Plugin: wp-contact-form]I can only assume that he’s talking about Ryan Duff’s plugin:
https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wp-contact-form/
And yes, it worked fabulously for me for about 18 months. But then spambots seemed to figure it out and I was getting up to 80 spam messages a day.
Now I’m on the lookout for a contact form plugin that also has a built in anti-spam function. It’s exactly why I popped by the forums today.
Anyone know of one? I’ve tried a couple but they don’t cut the mustard.

In reply to: Trying To Work Out A ThemeI cannot find the WP alternative for it. None of the links are valid. I would love that theme, it would fit so perfectly with a project of mine but I have zero experience with Nucleus ??
[Edit] Any idea where I can download Stanch2? I can’t find a download location anywhere.
Thanks for the info.

In reply to: Videoblogging With WordPress?Thanks Otto but I’m not exactly brilliant with coding or computing in general come to think of it. I have no idea what most of that meant!
[Edit : Just to expand]
I understand uploading the video onto my own server and using the embed tag. The rest is a bit of a mystery. I plan to use Windows Movie Maker to create the movies. Any other programs out there that would do a better job for free?

In reply to: Converting PHP to HTMLWell I’d like to make some add-ons to the blog but simple pages won’t do the job. Pages are listed across the top and that’s not what I want.

Basically I’d like the blue header the same, not the pages listed below on the grey line with three columns – the middle one being white. I’m not entirely sure what I’ll use them for yet. I have some ideas but I want to make sure it’s possible before getting too heavily involved.

In reply to: WP-ContactFormAnyone?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: WP-ContactFormWhat exactly would I have to ask them? It seems strange that it works some of the time but not all of the time.

In reply to: Posting Latest News In ‘Pages’I’ve done searches and I know the basics about feeding. I always do basic homework before posting anywhere. I wasn’t aware that it wasn’t a core function either. Hence me coming here and asking if it was possible.

In reply to: Posting Latest News In ‘Pages’Sorry!
How exactly do I go about using a Feedreader to post the headline in a page on my blog? Am I being really dense here?
