Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Page Template with CategoriesGeez, so many useless anwers to your question… and spam too. Ain’t that nice? Grrr.
Ok, about your question: my two cents is that it does not work since it’s a page, not a post. I’m not 100% sure, but as far as I remember from diving into the wordpress code, these “previous-next” thingies only work on archive pages (like the date, tag, category and index pages).
What you could do is the following: use a so called “custom loop”. Google, Bing or Yahoo it, there are plenty of examples out there on how to create a “custom wordpress loop”.
Using this custom loop, you can fetch any number of entries from any position and display them, while implementing some sort of “paging” at the same time.
Theoretically I’m talking about something like this:
$page = 0 + $_GET['my_page']; $data = mysql... LIMIT $page, 10"); while(fetch_result($data)) { display-the-results(); } /* and finally your requested links: */ <ul> <li><a href="yourpage/?my_page=<?php echo($page-1); ?>">prev</a></li> <li><a href="yourpage/?my_page=<?php echo($page+1); ?>">next</a></li> </ul>
Sorry I didn’t provide something to copy-and-paste, but I’m sure you get what I mean, don’t you?
Probably needs some tweaking and securing here and there, but it’s in theory a good way to make it work if everything else fails. To get rid of the “?my_page=…” you could even dive in deeper and make it more beautifull by using new, related rewrite rules in your .htaccess file; depending on your needs.
Hope that helps?
btw: Have a merry xmas y’all!

In reply to: I need more space for my links in sidebar@flopez01: you will need to load the image of the green bar into an image editor and resize it to the dimensions you want. Next, you (most probably) need to take a look at the CSS file to adjust the sizes of that image display. Hope that makes sense to you? If not, keep asking the community for more detailed help. Actually, you need someone who is willing and able to modify your theme’s images, css and html files to make them fit your zencart theme… but from what I see, you’re allready doing a good job and the looks are getting there. Just don’t give up and if needed, keep asking the community!
@tracybrown123: stop spamming your link and try contributing something usefull for a change or I’ll print a sticker on you soon!

In reply to: themes / templates@truadvisor: esmi is right. An alternative would be to get your hands one someone that knows a bit of html so he or she can add your logo to your header.php file (probably above or near the <h1> tag).
@tracybrown123: why do you anoy people with spam?

In reply to: Need simple, professional themeWhy not simply look for one here?
An alternative would be to pay someone (like me – lol) for a more professional theme that will do exactly what you want… hugging your corporate identity et all.

In reply to: How To Auto-Resize Background ImageHeya!
I personally would try this:
html { overflow: hidden; } #background { position: absolute; width: 100%; height: auto: top: 0; left: 0; z-order: 1; } #page { /* this is the wrapper for your page content, so it flows ontop of your background-image div */ z-order: 2; position: relative; }
and I would put the div at the bottom of the footer.php, like this:
<div> <img id="background" title="" alt="" src="images/diamondigloosplash.png"/> </div> </body> </html>
I think it’s best down there since it is not really “part of the page content” but rather a “design element”. This way, you won’t hurt your SEO etc.

In reply to: Better Archive system? For a daily bloggerIt’s sad that you are thinking your “older stuff” will be read when you post a link here. Some people (like me) will get the impression that you are simply spamming. Furthermore, I bet that a simple “can someone give me an SEO or DESIGN tip?” question does not really belong in here, but rather here.
Anyway… I’m a nice guy and took a peek at your site so I can give you a short tip or two anyway:
1) put the search-form way on top to make it easier for people to find it.
2) use a wider pagination (more pages to see and to click)
3) tweak your theme to show stuff like “articles today – one year ago”.For (3) there are plenty of hacks and tutorials out there on the web. Just google, bing or yahoo for it!
Erm, let me get this right:
You registered to get an api key and the key was send to you.
Now you want another one because your api key does not work?Why?
What makes you think it does not work? What “error” does wordpress produce or tell you about? You sure need to provide a bit more info…
Or even better: contact Akismet support with your API key and a description of the problem at https://akismet.com/contact/!

In reply to: “You are not allowed to perform backups.”Heya!
First up: DO NOT CHANGE PERMISSIONS OF YOUR wp-config.php FILE!
Why? Because (1) there is no need to and (2) it is the most precious file of your wordpress installation. You need to keep it as safe as possible.
Now to your problem…
First up, I am not using the plugin since I’m more comfortable with phpmyadmin, but I have digged the docs and hey… I think I found where your problem is: “You may need to make /wp-content writable”.
This means that the plugin actually asks you to make the directory called “wp-content” writable so the plugin can create sub-directories. Yet, from a security point of view this might be rather unsafe, since it could enable script-kiddies and other bad-boys to write something else into your wp-content directory. Just imagine what would happen if they overwrite your theme files? Then, your site could be sending spam or even worse stuff into the world wide web sooner as you can say “oops”.
My two cents: do not use the plugin at all.
You might ask the plugin developer to use it’s own subdirectory in the “wp-content/plugins/…” directory so you will have a more safe way to store your data without running the risk that too many files become writable. (Hope you get what I mean since I don’t know your web-knowledge level.)
Oh, btw.: have a merry x-mas y’all!

In reply to: Google SafeBrowsing warning after 2 days with installed qTranslateYou’ve got some nasty, attacking javascript in there!

I agree with songdogtech; it’s bad code in the theme (or maybe even a plugin). Make sure you download your stuff from valid places (like here at www.ads-software.com) and be sure to never, ever use a “nulled” premium theme from somewhere.
Those “nulled” or “hacked” premium themes are floating around on the web everywhere but they contain more badness than goodness most of the time. (Besides the fact that it is illegal to use them without paying.)
My 2 cents: remove all files from the server, reinstall a fresh wordpress installation with fresh plugins and a free theme. When you do, make sure the places you download them can be trusted. Finally, ask Google.com to re-validate your site by requesting a re-validation.
Good luck!

In reply to: is there a plugin for changing the font size of a post?You could try a “css switching” plugin like “AJAX CSS Switcher”.
Then by swithing the css, you could change the font-size of the specific page areas in the individual css files themselves; where each css file contains the font-size you “switched” to.
I doubt there is a pre-made plugin you can use, since the individual css of different theme-files would make it hard for the plugin to “cope with all possible css stuff” without messing up things.
