Yuchi,
your code works great! I had the same problem with the next and previous link and now with your piece of code it’s gone…many thanks!

What exactly is the difference between using

<?php if(is_home()) {query_post("cat=-39");}?php>

and what you gave us?

Stealth Publish is a Plugin from coffee2code which does the same with a custom field.

But I prefer the method with the hack in the index file. It’s clean short and no use for additional Plugin.

I don’t know if you found something but I just came across this plugin. Maybe it will help you to do what you want…check it out:

Neil Guevara, centering the picture could probably be managed with CSS…unfortunately I do not have the solution for you…not a pro…sorry…but hope it brings you on the right path at least.

jonimueller is totally right. There should be a page.php file in your theme folder. Copy it then rename it to anything you remember and delete the sidebar call.

One you have done all the above the only thing you need to do is to apply this template in your “Write – Page” Section of your blog everywhere you want no sidebar.

Could look something like this:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Page Templage w/o Sidebar
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

	<div id="content" class="fullcolumn">

		<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
		<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
			<div class="entry">
				<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page &raquo;</p>'); ?>

				<?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>

			</div>
		</div>
		<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
	</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Not that I know anything like showing the flash components on the WP-Blog but check out this to show the popular post and/or pages.

In WP 2.5 the version will show up on your Dashboard in the “Right Now”-Tab.

If you update to 2.5.1 lookup the secret key that was added to the wp-config.php file.

You should find a couple of plugins dealing with this issue but I couldn’t name them on the spot (but you find them if you google for it).

On the other hand you could make a hack in one of the WP files. Disadvantage of this method…every time you update your WP install you need to reperform the hack…and I couldn’t tell you either which file to edit.

Should be somewhere at the bottom in your Dashboard.

Uploaded the new files…works like a charm! Thanks, great plugin!

Cool thanks.

You can…go to the Manage – Export options…get all authors…and download export files. This will take all your posts, comments, custom fields, pages and categories (even tags if I’m not totally wrong).

Then go to your fresh WP install same place but Import and hit…”WordPress Import posts, comments, custom fields, pages, and categories from a WordPress export file.”…done!

Here’s a solution to implement it with the WP2.5 Gravatar function by Otto.

As I can see, you already upgraded to WP 2.5
I have another question for you. Did you have a sub-folder before or not? You might want to check in your index.php file if you point your blog to the right path:

require('./"your-subfolder"/wp-blog-header.php');

This could be another chance for you. For more on this topic click the link in the back end Settings “Blog address”.

I guess you need to change the path to your WP installation in the settings option.

Part I

You might want to check out this article…only difference is that they’re working with WAMP.

If you want a quick guide with XAMPP check out this post (it’s with the lite version but works the same way).

Otherwise just google, there’s plenty of information on this topic. One little thing, if you want to use permalinks you need a little fix on your httpd.conf file (find and article here – just follow the first steps on the file mentioned…you don’t need the other stuff).
