    Thanks for looking – very grateful I have taken out the right click disable.

    I have just noticed that the footer is not displaying either…even though the function is clearly being called in the code

    Please have another look …much appreciated…

    Sorry – I dont understand – a newer version of what?

    I asked them to upgrade WordPress to 2.1.3 – which they did. In response to this error message the hosting site (www.siteground.com) told me that I would need to speak to a MySQL expert – in other worsd “its my problem”….:-(

    I do have two templates. I copied the page.php and added another one called news_page.php so now there are two templates.

    They both get listed the right hand side where all available templates get listed for editing by the template editor.

    …..:-(

    I have done excatly as the instructions siggest.

    I copied the existing page.php and called it news_page.php
    I put it into the themes directory
    I can now see it listed in the list where you can edit any of the page templates.

    I put the following code at the top of the news_page.php file:
    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: News_page
    */
    ?>

    I created a new page and looked for any indication that I can choose which template to use

    …I juts cant see any option to change the template for the page !!

    ..obviously I am missing something…but what ?

    Brilliant – thank you for your help.

    I have put this in :-
    <?php comments_popup_link(_t(‘Click here to Comment’), _t(‘1 Click here to Comment’), _t(‘% Click here to Comment’)); ?>
    </div>

    ***Note that the quoted code I first gave you was missing a single quote just before the number “1” in:-
    <?php comments_popup_link(_t(‘Comment’), _t(1 Comment’), _t(‘% Comments’)); ?>
    ****

    That is obviously what I did wrong…all is ok at https://www.altendorff.co.uk again ??

    Many thanks

    Thanks vkaryl that was helpful…I found this in index.php

    *****************************************
    <!– Metadata –>
    <div class=”post-metadata”>
    <?php _te(‘Posted in ‘); the_category(‘, ‘); ?> |
    <?php edit_post_link(_t(‘Edit’),”,’ |‘); ?>
    <?php comments_popup_link(_t(‘Comment’), _t(1 Comment’), _t(‘% Comments’)); ?>
    </div>
    *****************************************

    But when I changed any of the words (eg. to ‘Click to Comment’ the blog crashes with this message:-

    Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/altendor/public_html/wp-content/themes/Tiga/index.php on line 56

    What am I doing wrong ?

    Ok all pain has gone away.

    I have installed the free BLOGDESK
    https://www.blogdesk.org/en/info.htm

    and now edit offline with fantastic rich / HTML editing facilities, photo manipulation, and of course a complete back up offline (I dont totally trust the hostign company!)

    What a relief – moral – dont use the WP built in editor.

    au revoir…

    I did install the plug in from AI3 to extend the TinyMCE editor. https://www.mkbergman.com/?p=275

    But I didnt have any problem with it and if you see the blog for the extension no one else does either.

    I uninstalled it and deleted all the files related to it, and re-installed the default WP install at siteground.com which I thought would get me back to square one.

    Sorry – last bit of info …

    I have made a list of all the scripts running at the moment I hit the “publish” button they are:

    wpincludes/js/fat.js
    wpincludes/js/tw-sack.js
    wpincludes/js/dbx.js
    wpincludes/js/dbx_key.js
    wpincludes/js/tinymce_gzip.php?ver20051211
    wpincludes/js/quicktags.js
    wpadmin/cat_js.php

    I hope this helps ….

    I have more information on this error.

    1. I have a blog hosted at https://www.siteground.com – I get the publish error every single time I try to post whether I use IE or Firefox (and all the other tricks like CTRLA/C etc dont work.)

    2. I have a stub of a blog at wordpress.com https://russab2001.wordpress.com/
    I can publish posts to this with no errors at all. Using IE or Firefox.

    I conclude that it is therefore likely to be a scripting error with the wordpress install at siteground.

    BUT – that was working – it just stopped working a week ago.

    Siteground has reinstalled the default install of wordpress scripts etc.. – the error persists.

    Help !
