Fixed are in now in the CVS-Version.
tnx going to dougal… ??

I hate these one man postings. ??
bug #1 was a result of a wrong setting in my html. Setting both (wp and the html-source) to ISO-8859-1 solved the problems on German-Umlauts.

argh, it seems that I was wrong. ??
bug #2 is a result on non-gmt-aware programs which post an entry without timezone data. The effect is that the entry only popups if the time is reached. In my case within one hour, because I live in GMT+1.

bug #2 is produced by some functionality by the usage of the post_modified field in the database.
I had modified the written post and the date (post_modified) was set in the past.
(Maybe an error in the gmt function or something similiar.)
Just to let you know… ??

I didn’t see any problems with Umlaute. Do you using the latest stable wordpress version (1.0.1)?
Normally wordpress converts the umlaute into utf8 characters. The “MA1/4ller” may result of the version of your browser. So the next question is what browser you are using?

I updated the hack to wordpress 1.0.1!
The hack is now using the my-hacks.php file to hold the functions.
@ Shreela: The old patch was against the release candidate 1.
