In reply to: Need to make a fresh install of WordPress Mobile Edition 3.0.5Just as an update,
I was checking for the mobile theme functionality on my Symbian phone, which it still doesn’t work with.However, I’ve had friends tell me that it’s working with Sony Ericsson and iPhone/iTouch devices.
Therefore, this is now a problem of the theme not recognising my Noka E51 Symbian phone – and presumably other Symbian phones.

In reply to: [Plugin: Audio Player] Version 2.0 beta releasedHello,
Thanks for this great plugin!I’m using WordPress 2.7 and the latest beta version of AudioPlayer. I’ve found that having the “Podcasting” plugin stops it working. If I have Podcasting enabled, Audio Player has two problems. Firstly it says it cannot find the file, and secondly, it ignores the colours I have set for it.
I determined this by switching to the classic theme and disabling all my plugins, then systematically re-enabling all of my plugins one by one.
Thanks for reading.

In reply to: Moving WordPress to a new server & domainThanks for the reply.
Regarding your quote, it isn’t I didn’t read the instructions to the end. On the contrary, I wanted to get things exactly right, I lost count of the number of times I did read it, none of which times it made total sense to me. Although it was at the point I quoted that things completely de-rail, because once I do change the two URL fields, it’s game over because I can’t do anything else, the blog doesn’t even reload. So anything else that the instructions tell me to do with the old blog isn’t possible. [i]Unless[/i] I’m missing something.
I’ve been doing a rehearsal by running Xampp on my XP laptop and trying to migrate the blog to local, here’s the procedure I came up with:
- Use the wp-db-backup plugin to download a copy of the blog’s mysql database.
- Open the database in a text editor and replace every instance of “mydomain.com” with “localhost/wordpress”.
- Goto myphpadmin on my localhost server, create a database called “wordpress” and import the modified mysql database into it.
- Download my entire wordpress installation from this server to the corresponding folder in my xampp installation.
- Edit wp-config.php with the new database details. (In the case of running a local server, user=root and password is null).This is enough to get the blog working, but permalinks need fixing.
- Delete the .htaccess file.
- Go into the WordPress dashboard (of local copy) and set the permalink options, which regenerates a .htaccess file. (As a belt & braces approach, also use the custom permalink structure input line with “index.php/” at the start of your desired permalink structure).
