Awesome esmi. Thank you that worked!

I second timbearcubs’ concerns. I constructed a post with multiple links out to various mp3 files and WordPress is creating multiple enclosures in my RSS 2.0 file resulting in an Invalid file. This RSS file should be valid and WordPress should not be automatically generating enclosures for each mp3 link. Does anyone have any fixes so that my RSS feed can come alive again?

naderc, thanks for the tip! That looks liek a very interesting site!

Wow. Is this your first blog? Great job!

Also as an FYI if you’re using an older version of Dreamweaver as an editor, it messes with the quotes in your markup. I had similar problems when using Dreamweaver 6 to edit that wp-rss2.php file.

Personality!

You can also download a plugin called Dashboard Options which doesn’t necessarily allow you to customize the UI but it does allow some great flexibility for that first greeting screen.

You can also do something like this:

<?php
// If Category, Page, or Search are not equal to zero, display nothing
if ($cat != “” || $p != “” || $s !=””) {
?>
<?php
} else {
?>
// Else, if it’s on the index, show display this Get Sidebar function
<?php get_sidebar (); ?>
<?php
}
?>

That might work. Good luck.

Thanks all. It has been a ton of fun messing around with PHP. WP is like a gateway drug into scripting languages! Ha!

And you’re using the password that wordpress generated? Your login is “admin”?

I finally figured this out. Anyone who wants to change the sort order of posts within a category listing should put the following code before The Loop.

<?php if (is_category()) { $posts = query_posts($query_string . ‘&orderby=title&order=asc’); } ?>

Ah ha. Thank you macmanx. This helps a lot!

sadish, this does work for Categories as well! Thanks

<?php if (is_category()) { $posts = query_posts($query_string . ‘&nopaging=1’); } ?>

Ok, so for anyone that’s been folowing this post or is interested in sorting posts in alphabetical order rather than by date authored, I have made some headway.

Here’s my Category view sorted by default (Date authored):

Here’s my Category view sorted the way I want it (Alphabetically):
https://www.asianmack.com/wordpress/index.php?cat=2&orderby=title&order=asc

Now the problem is, how do I get the links generated in wp_list_cats() to append that query string? Anyone out there have any ideas?

Thanks for your help regardless! Anyone else out there with any suggestions?
