In reply to: USA Today-like nvaigation buttonsWhile not exactly what you are looking for, I have crafted a theme framework that replicates most of the best features of the USAToday site. I am doing a tutorial series on it now.
You can see the framework in action here:

In reply to: K2 not displaying properlyAnd as he said, and you can see by going to his site, SOME of his templates are exhibiting this behavior, not just K2. He is currently running the default install of Kubrick and having the problem.
Okay to fix the layout problems in Kubrick you need to close two DIV’s right before you call the sidebar DIV:
</div>
</div><div id=”sidebar”>
That will fix your current layout problems. I am not sure what could be the problem with any other themes, since I can’t see them ??

In reply to: Upgrade from 1.2 to 1.5 Problems!Hey everyone, there were significant changes in plugin handling when we moved from 1.3 – 1.5. I am still working on updating my plugins, so please be patient.
Mass Delete is one of my top priorities.

In reply to: Mac Support for adding entriesWordPress doesn’t currently ship with a WYSIWYG editor. So you should be good. And for future reference, anything we do, as much as possible, will be cross-platform.
So if there ever is an official WYSIWYG editor you better believe it will run on a mac. Since you know, I and now the Project Lead are mac users.

In reply to: How to display content within pages?Wait, what kind of content? If you are entering PHP then no, it won’t ever show up.
But if you are just talking about HTML, then you shouldn’t be having problems. So please more information.

In reply to: Hide Comment Input Fields?Hey khaled, no plugin that is hard-coding goodness. It is pretty basic js. The fastest way to get this would be to steal it from Kubrick.

In reply to: Graphics not showing on month viewActually the problem is probably that the image uri’s were like this:
images/banana.png
When you write:
/images/banana.png
you are telling the browser to prepend the entire URI.Forum: Requests and Feedback

In reply to: Automatic Switch the StyleSheet Based on SeasonAs the resident Orthodox WPer I thought I would chime in and mention that for some of us Pascha (Easter) is a movable feast. For me Pascha will be May 1st in 2005, it moves in a 5 year cycle. So the problem can be way more complicated that one would assume.

In reply to: Mac OS X local installationHmm.. going back to your SQL db, did you create the user root and add them to the db and give them the appropriate powers?
I would suggest blowing away the wordpress DB and creating another one just to be sure something wasn’t borked when creating it. Other than that I am kinda stumped. I have never had a problem installing this on my mac all the way to Tiger (10.4) which is what my server is running now.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Mac OS X local installation1. Okay.
2. You local machine name would be something like mydesktop.local, to find out go into:
Control Panel->Sharing and look at the top where it says computer name: in that text box put what you want your comp to be identified as to the network.
So you need to put in machine name ie mydesktop.local/~username/
I would recommend taking the files to run WP out of the WP directory and just throw them in the Sites folder. Other than that you should be good. Let me know how this goes for you.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Include RSS FeedYou just need to parse and style the RSS feed. Currently there is no way to do that built in to WP, it is being worked on for later inclusion.
There are a couple of ways that you can accomplish this, but the best by far is MagpieRSS (which is being massaged into WP), you can find it here:
https://magpierss.sourceforge.net/
It is pretty easy to incorporate, and the syntax is pretty straightforward.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Mac OS X local installationOkay, a couple of questions here.
- Where did you install your WP files, in /Library/WebServer/Documents ; or in /Users/UserName/Sites/ ?
- Have you set up a rendevous machine name in the Sharing Dialog?
Once you answer these questions I can help you out.
