thanks…for some reason, I have run that script as well as adding the return 0, but still have the dups at the bottom of my page….

thank you…that was helpful….does anyone know how to possibly show the full post and title on the search results page and how to adjust the h2 class of the title for search results to match the post title for the main page?

I ran this script, but my duplicates are still there?
Anyone have any ideas about removing?
When I got into mysql database, there are not duplicate entries, but the front page shows duplicates down at the bottom, for just some of the posts, but the posts don’t seem to have a core idenitfying characteristic, ie. symbols in post title, flash media in post, etc.

How do you run this script once you are in mysql? Is it under query?

any help on displaying both post title and excerpt?

would you mind sharing how you figured out how to fix the search results? I changed my search.php file to the_content, however while the full post now shows up, there are duplicates of each post and they are not displayed in the formatted way, they are all over the place.
Any insights?!

Here is the code for the ChaoticSoul sidebar theme file:

<div id=”sidebar”>

<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/searchform.php’); ?>

<?php if (is_single()) { ?>

Then, you create the functions file which includes:

<?php
if ( function_exists(‘register_sidebar’) )
register_sidebar();
?>

Then you go and follow instructions above to copy/paste the h2 tag in index/styles file, and change it to h3.
That did it for me. Sidebar ready.
Cheers!

it still does it after i use the default theme. I tried the addition of the code :
if ($post_name_check || in_array($post_name, $wp_rewrite->feeds) ) {
return 0;
Didn’t do anything to remove the current duplicate posts. Perhaps it will prevent more..but how in the world does one remove the duplicate posts. There are no duplicate posts listed in my phpMyAdmin. There is only one of each. same with wp admin interface.
I don’t know what is causing the dups. I updated to newest wp 2.5
I deactivated all plugins. I went to default theme. Still duplicates.
HELP!

same here? Any answers?

the reason I have the front page so long is because the site is designed to be a testimonials page and we want all of the testimonials displayed one page together.

can you tell me how you finally got chaotic soul widgetized? I’ve followed all the instructions and still have no option to use widgets? Any way of sharing how you accomplished this? I’d be so grateful!

i am also extremely frustrated by not being able to use widgets after purchasing my hosting with wordpress installed. If anyone has successfully done it for Chaotic Soul…I would be willing to pay them for the widgetized theme updated! Please let me know thanks!

Please advise if anyone understands why duplicate posts appear of each post I put onto my site.
Thanks!

I have the same problem.

I did an export from my free wordpress hosted blog and then imported the file to my own site which I installed the newest version of wordpress to (2.3.1).
I have doubles of my posts down at the bottom.

If I delete one, then it also deletes it’s original up at the top. Any ideas?
I only have Anarchy media player, and kimili flash embed plugins….aside from the akismet.

Help please?!

I followed the exact directions above, but still have the message in my admin under widgets:
You are seeing this message because the theme you are currently using isn’t widget-aware, meaning that it has no sidebars that you are able to change. For information on making your theme widget-aware, please follow these instructions.
I copy/pasted the h2 and made it h3. and followed all directions above.
Any insights?
Why in the world would they not have ChaoticSoul widget ready? Especially when the free WordPress hosted version is fabulous!
Also, does the fix above enable the ability to use the youtube movie insertion tool?
