That’s exactly my question, and if I do a Google Search on it , there seem to be quite a lot of people with the same question.

Maybe a stupid question but how can I submit this as a change request to the WordPress Team? It would solve an awful lot of things e.g. we can edit php etc… without problems and if we want to go wysiwyg only then switch.

I’ve been thinking about it. When I would split the XML file from WordPress Export in multiple parts would it work? What fields would be required in each of the parts as part of the header?

If that would work an auto split tool would be easy to write.

Maybe I can export the stuff in parts but the menu does not give me this option. Maybe I can change the author for each year via sql, then do an export per author and then an import per xml file? Anyone has experience with this?

So I dont want to use mysql export, change the host name and then import via mysql

You dont need to add empty widgets. You can add to the before widget and after widget a div and just css the div. e.g. see: https://www.cogmios.nl/index.php?s=widgets

I just started playing around with the build-in mini magpie and I get exactly the same error sometimes at https://www.cogmios.nl/planet. I wonder if you, after 10 months, have found at why it happens and if you are willing to share this?

ok, I did the following steps now it works:
1) open the kmz in internet explorer
2) save the kml file resulting
3) make a php file referencing the kml file like this:
header(“Content-type: application/kmz”);
header(‘Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=”kauai.kml”‘);

well…probably the kml could be kmz anywayz but this works.

resolved: although I dont know exactly what I did. I now switched back to php4. Enabled all pluging again.

I just noted that the Comments Page in the Admin panel also remains empty. I also noted that there were 3 indexes on comment_content in the database of which I removed 2.

Ok it was only this item which probably was in there 3 times since 2002. PHEW. It has nothing todo with your problem i’m afraid.

? It is 3 times in the database with 3 different guids. Hmmm… did I enter it 3 times after each other back in 2002 or is there more weird stuff?

Weird I noticed the same thing only this week (https://www.cogmios.nl/some-blog-probs-20070501.html) However I noticed it only accidently when i saw a very old posting from 2002 which somehow shows up 3 times under the permalink. including 3 times a comment box.

New posts do not seem affected.

I wonder if it is somehow related. So let me check the database…hmmm…

I think i fixed it by “restore default configuration”

I give u a wider answer so u can play along with it:

1. open the file “style.css” in your theme (either locally and then ftp it or via the theme editor in the admin console)
2. all the typography is in the section “/* Begin Typography & Colors */” (for this specific theme)
3. Everywhere you see “font-size: 1.2em ” etc… means this influences the (relative in this case) size of the displayed elements as mentioned. Just play with the numbers until you like it.

On devguru: https://www.devguru.com/technologies/css2/, you can find a CSS reference, so you can quickly lookup what you can change. e.g. font-size is here: https://www.devguru.com/technologies/css2/8090.asp

If you want to have some more deduction capabilities of what is visible on your screen you can also try the web developer extension for firefox: https://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/ , it shows you all the elements on a page and lots of stuff more. It even lets you change the html on the fly so you can see what it looks like immediately (ofcourse you then have to incorporate the changes you made later manually in your theme but it gives you a good idea). yes its free.

here is the one I use, maybe u find it helpful:

<title><?php
if (is_home () ) {
echo “Weblog: “;
bloginfo(‘name’);
} elseif ( is_category() ) {
single_cat_title();
echo ” – “;
bloginfo(‘name’);
} elseif (is_single() || is_page() ) {
single_post_title();
echo ” (https://www.cogmios.nl – Edward de Leau)”;
} elseif (is_search() ) {
echo “You searched Cogmios.nl for: “;
echo wp_specialchars($s);
} else {
wp_title(”,true);
} ?> </title>

1) I use the “weblog:” verb so people who bookmark it know its a weblog
2) On the homepage they see just the title
3) On a single posting (permalink) page they see the name of the posting, so when you find it in a search engine you see just the name of the topic of the post and not the blogname. It is then followed by my blog name for some branding.
4) the other ones are pretty default: categories (since i dont use them (dont want to categorize 7500 blogpostings)) and search also.

So just replace it in the mostly “header.php” file in your theme via your wordpress admin console.
