In reply to: wp_options: Table is marked as crashed and last repair failed@dipakcg – just to let you know, same issue as reported. your steps did work for me. Much Appreciated.
Thanks for your reply…turns out was just a bit to expecting it “now” and after doing the smart thing and waiting it showed up as expected.
Also to be clear for others searching. The goal was to have a Blogger RSS feed show up on a WordPress site. It had been working, but a new post didn’t show right away. The easy fix was: patience.
Was the answer you refer to on dlvr.it or WordPress site? I am having a blogger site RSS Widget new content not showing up issue.

In reply to: PHP Error Log@steeephen – Yep the error log is just a reporting of errors for you or some other human to read if needed. It doesn’t impact WP in anyway and if the file doesn’t exist WP creates it.
After deleting mine a few months ago..no issues to report with that action.

In reply to: PHP Error LogFor those working on this issue…when I found the error log that size the first thing after trying to view it was to delete it. Error logs are useful in diagnosing an issue but not if they are unwieldy.
I plan on letting a few errors accumulate and then trying esmi’s advice. Just felt this deletion step was worth documenting for future readers.

In reply to: PHP Error Log@linnywren – Not what this thread is about at all.
404 means a page is not accessible from a link on your site or to your site. Look carefully at the address that is sending you there, if it isn’t the right address the fix it. If you post (in a new thread) the exact details with links you are likely to get better help too.

In reply to: PHP Error LogThank you for the advice…the log file is so large I’m looking for an app to review the recent entries if any.
I did update the blog to the latest version of WP as well as the plugins. I will try your advice after I find a reader tool.

In reply to: [Custom Contact Forms] [Plugin: Custom Contact Forms] email subject fieldYou can specify the default subject easily (see below). I haven’t found out how to customize it as a single use per form, which of course would be more useful.
In the plugin admin/General Settings:
Enter your default email subject——————————
Default Email Subject:
Default subject to be included in all form emails.
———————I am looking for how to customize the From Name Email. This option is not available as a default OR as a single use form option.

In reply to: Visual editor lost after upgrade to 3.0@johnflufin – I was having the same issue upgrade from older to 3.x and Chrome didn’t like it. Even though I have other 3.x instances open in other tabs showing the Visual editor buttons. Logging into the new upgrade site in IE showed the buttons, so at least I know the issue is browser based.

Thanks.

In reply to: Adding remote search of a wordpress blog to regular HTMLI did try to add this to the header area:
<?php require_once("./members/wp-blog-header.php"); ?>
Where members is the name of the directory where the blog is, and then this snippet in the area I wanted the search field:
<form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"> <div><input type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" name="s" id="s" /> <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" /> </div> </form>
I got the idea from an article titled:
