Another wrinkle – if I do try to use pretty permalinks, it breaks the plugin in another way. If I try to run it manually (it has its own Settings page) it redirects me to the WordPress 404 page. The plugin tries to access a file in the plugins directory, and WordPress tries to parse this as if it was a permalink. Surely it shouldn’t work this way?

Does anybody think these issues could be related? The plugin I’m using (trying to use) is Postie – https://www.economysizegeek.com/wp-mail/ – although I don’t believe that the problems are due to the plugin.

Any responses appreciated. And my apologies for all the typos in my first post – I blush!

Thanks, but that doesn’t seem to be it. My permalinks are ugly! Could this be a .htaccess thing? What should I look for?

Um, not to seem obtuse, but how would you do this to comments and excerpts and stuff? I’m having major textile issues at the moment – for some reason it has entirelay stopped processing image tags and is completely breaking my site.

Thanks.

I created a page called “allarchives.php” that consisted of:
<?php /*Template Name: All Archives */ ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content">
<h2>Archives</h2>
<?php smartArchives() ?>

</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>`

which I uploaded to my Content folder. Then I created a new blank Page (using the “Write Page” section of the Admin panel) called “All Archives” and set allarchives.php as the template.

The result can be seen here.

Great, thank you!

Is there a simple hack to have it exclude certain categories? An Asides type category, for example.

(Sorry – accidentally double posted).

I’ve solved my problem, but there seem to be a number of different ones here so it probably doesn’t matter much. Mine was that when I split my old index page into Header, Sidebar etc. the comments stopped displaying – comments_template(); did nothing.

The solution was to take the line $withcomments=true; out of the header.php file and put it in the index.php file.

I hope this helps somebody.

Working? Working how? Checking something other pingomatic? Pray tell.
Sorry, I don’t know anything about the times.

I don’t wish to demand that everybody be forced to check blogs.com or whatever it used to be, but I’d like the option. It’s easier to change my behaviour than everybody elses. I don’t wish to be in a WordPress ghetto of non-updating blogrolls!

For me, the upgrade went painlessly until I completely embraced the themes. I split my Index page into Header, Footer Sidebar etc. Then my comments stopped working – nothing shows up. I tried replacing the comments.php file with the default, but it made no difference. My comments.php file worked fine before, and it still works fine on my single.php page.

Is it something to do with calling it mulitiple times on the page? I don’t like using the popup. I use ScriptyGoddess’ show/hide comments, which works fine. _Worked_ fine. I’ve tried the other suggestions in this thread (those I understood). Anybody?

Anybody?

Is there a way to refer to a service that more blogs actually ping to? I’ve just realised that I don’t link to that many wordpress blogs. Most of my friends use Blogspot. What’s that about?

I’m having the same problem. $posts_per_page, $posts_per_caegory_page, $posts_per_archive_page… It doesn’t matter how liberally I set them to -1 and scatter them around, they don’t make a blind bit of difference.

Help!

Is it just me, or is the actual plugin file missing from the .zip? All I see is readme.txt, fancytooltips.css and fancytooltips.js – the same as the .zip for “Regular Script”.

Thanks!

Yeah, I’d like the same thing. It should be fairly simple, shouldn’t it? Like adding a piece of code if (category != 1) {return}; or something. I just don’t know what the variable with the category id is called at the point that the plugin kicks in.
Anybody?

I’ve been using this for a while and it’s great. Thank you!
Occasionally if I save as a draft and then publish it won’t work, but I think all these mail notification plugins have this problem – something to do with WP I guess. The newsletter function means that this isn’t so much of an issue – I just do it by hand.
The only thing that would improve it for me would be a way of filtering categories, _ie_ notifications are only sent out if the entry is in category 1, or in any category other than 5, or whatever.
This would probably be fairly simple to hack in, I’m just not sure how! Anybody?
