Ate Up With Motor

That gives me a syntax error; something about the echo statements isn’t punctuated right, I think.

I will try that with the genericons.

As for the other, maybe it’s that IE 8 doesn’t support the box-shadow property; there’s no shadow around any of the widgets, either, although there is in other browsers.

Well, I can live without that. Modernizr at least keeps the layout from looking broken, even if it’s not as pretty this way.

Thanks again!

Okay, I installed modernizr and that seems to have fixed many of the issues.

The genericons still don’t show up (they now appear as empty box characters), which I’m not too worried about. However, I am concerned that the content area and main menu border properties are still not being followed. It seems like IE 8 is still expanding the element content/colors to the edges of those elements in a way that makes the borders disappear. (I’m dimly aware that IE treats width and margin/padding attributes differently than other browsers.) Do you have any suggestions in that regard?

Thanks!

Okay, that works (although I still have to figure out how to get it to center).

Thanks again!

Okay, I think I’ve got it. For the benefit of others, here is what I finally ended up with:

<?php
// Add categories to exclude in the exclude here
$cats = get_categories('exclude=');
foreach ($cats as $cat) {
  echo "<h3>".$cat->cat_name."</h3>";
  echo "<ul>";
  $archive_query = new WP_Query('posts_per_page=-1&order=asc&orderby=title&cat='.$cat->cat_ID);
  while ($archive_query->have_posts()) { $archive_query->the_post();
    $category = get_the_category();
	  echo '<li><a href="'.get_permalink().'" title="'.get_the_title().'">'.get_the_title().'</a></li>';
	  }
  echo "</ul>";
}
?>

That produces a list of all posts grouped by category and then sorted in ascending alphabetic order by post title.

Thanks, esmi! (And thanks again to Joost de Valk for getting me most of the way there.)

Ahah, I got that to work instead of query_post() — now I have to see if I can get the orderby syntax right.

Thanks!

It sounds like you’re on a shared server with limited memory. (I run into this a lot and it’s really a server issue rather than something specific to the site or plugin.)

You could try changing the server load limit setting in the Link Checker advanced setting.

That’s it exactly. Thank you so much — I spend most of yesterday trying to get my head around how to set up the code for that!

Okay, thanks!

Thanks, Justin — I was gnashing my teeth about this.

Okay, I think I solved the problem. What it appears happened is that after importing, the database desperately needed to be optimized (particularly because the import failed once and I had to delete everything and start over). There was so much junk that optimizing reduced the size of that table by 64 MB.

I would suggest that people make a point of optimizing their database after completing the import (and to definitely do that if they have this kind of a problem). For future releases, it might also be worth considering adding a feature to optimize the database from the plugin itself, especially for users who aren’t comfortable with phpMyAdmin. I don’t know how feasible that is, but it would be a nice addition.

Thanks!

But why would the imported database table cause backup errors at all? That’s the part I’m not getting. Is there a way to clean that up?

Okay, good to know. Thanks!

Will the fix be incorporated in the next official update? (I’m not the most technically skilled, so I tend to be hesitant about beta versions.) If so, I might wait for that. It’s a minor point at present.

Thanks!

I’ll try that, thanks!
