In reply to: [FlexiCache] Pages work in FireFox, not in IESimon,
UPDATE:
I appreciate your hard work and contributions to the WordPress community.
That being said, this plugin has been way too problematic for me.
I wish to remove this plugin from my wordpress install as if it never existed.
Here’s what I have done so far:
– deactivated it
– uninstalled it
– edited flexicache out of the htaccess file (which the uninstall did NOT do)What else do I need to do to completely remove flexicache as if it were never installed?
Thanks for your help.
– Dan
P.S. if you have any specific questions about the problems I had that could help you improve the plugin, you have full permission to email me. I will help the best I can.

In reply to: How do I change the permalink number of a post?Appreciate your reply, Bagel. I wish I knew how long FB cached things.
I may try duplicating the post. But I’m not a WP guru, and I don’t want to be forced to relink images, etc. I suppose cutting and pasting the html code from original to dupe post might do the trick.
Thanks.

In reply to: Am I being used for spam?Thanks for the replies. In addition to requiring registration to comment, comments are moderated and must be approved before posting. So I guess I’m not seeing what they are after.
Perhaps they are registering in hopes of making a spam comment, but after seeing the comment is subject to approval, they go away.
Nonetheless, with user info from the one who registered just minutes ago:

there is no question in my mind that is a spammer.[moderator] Please don’t post email addresses on the forum or alternatively just swap the

In reply to: Problem with images in posts (v1.5)I appreciate that. However, I think adding the align tag to the link is probably going to be easier.
But speaking about classes, can somebody please tell me what file this all goes in? I would also like to look there for settings to control the padding of images, if any. Thanks.

In reply to: Problem with images in posts (v1.5)Sorry. I should have been more detailed in my post.
Thanks. However, I want to place multiple images in posts. I may want to stagger them, i.e. first one left justified, second right justified, etc.
Is there a plugin or some easier way to align multiple images in posts other than manully coding in ALIGN=”XXX”?
thanks.

In reply to: How do you suck graphic images up to the server?As far as I can go with setting them. Current modes are 755. The host where this install of WP is hosted is also host to many other TLD domains within the very same account. So I can’t take a chance on compromising security by opening up group uploads.
Guess I’ll have to ftp the files up the old fashioned way. Thanks.

In reply to: How do you suck graphic images up to the server?Thanks for the quick replies.
To clarify: when I said remote host, I simply meant that the wordpress site is being hosted by a professional web hosting service like any other website.
I have enabled the upload option, but it does not work. I have specified the correct path, but still doesn’t work. Gets the error that it …”doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress.”
I assume it’s not working because like any traditional hosted account, you need a username and a password to ftp a file to the remote server. I see no provision in the WP upload feature to specify a username or password. Does that mean that the upload feature will not work?
thanks.

In reply to: How do I summarize posts/articles on the main page?You beat me. I also found the archive about the bug and fix in 1.5.1. Thanks, your original reply put me on the right track and help solve it. Thanks.

In reply to: How do I summarize posts/articles on the main page?Follow up:
After your reply, I searched this board for more about the More tag. Found a post that said the More tag must be on a line by itself. I tried that, and it still does not work. Shows the entire post.
Anybody got any ideas?
thanks.

In reply to: How do I summarize posts/articles on the main page?Thanks for your reply.
I tried that option before asking and it did not work.
I wrote a paragraph. Pressed the More tag., then wrote about 6 more paragraphs. I published the article and on the main page, the entire article was displayed – not just the first paragraph.
Don’t know if this is significant, but the More tag that is inserted is different than that in your example. When I press More it inserts:
<!–more–>
which is a standard html comment tag.What am I doing wrong?

In reply to: Changed hosts – can’t get sql to workThanks! Didn’t work (totally), but put me on the right track.
I would like to know what went wrong so I don’t do it again. Here’s what the problem was:
After doing sql export on old host, here’s what the key fields in wp-config looked like:
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘accountname_wrdp1’);
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘accountname_wrdp1’);
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘W13dFgHM890Oo’);
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);where:
wrdp1 – sql database
accountname = my main account name on old and new serverIt should have looked like this:
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘accountname_wrdp1’);
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘accountname’);
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘correctpassword’);
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);What did I do wrong either exporting from the old server or importing to the new server that caused:
– encrypting of the password
– the username to be replaced with the full username/sql db name?It’s fixed now, and it’s a small point, but I would like to know what went wrong so that I can prevent this from happening in the future, and it can also be helpful to some other user searching these forums
Thanks,

In reply to: Changed hosts – can’t get sql to workHow do I change that? In wp-config.php the password appears to be encrypted.

In reply to: Fantastico and WordPress 1.5I cannot do it, but if it’s any help, I recently upgraded a WP ver 1.2 that was originally installed via fantastico to the new ver 1.5.
It’s extremely easy to do. There is clear instructions on what to do. In fact, if I remember correctly it did’nt amount to anything more than backing up a file or two, scratching the entire WP 1.2 install, and simply copying the new 1.5 files into the server.
Everything ran ok.
So if you don’t get an offer of help, you may find it is simpler than you think.
