In reply to: Google AdsenseYou can either put it in your templates or get plugins like adsense deluxe and put it in your post.
In the long term its better to have it in your templates because it saves time.
If you’re getting traffic the layout of your ad’s will be a huge influence on how much money ou make.

In reply to: why in the wp-admin the display:hide not work?If you want to hide it and you’re not going to use why not just delete the whole code?
<fieldset id="postexcerpt" class="dbx-box">
<h3 class="dbx-handle">Optional Excerpt</h3>
<div class="dbx-content"><textarea rows="1" cols="40" name="excerpt" tabindex="6" id="excerpt"></textarea></div>
</fieldset>
This shouldn’t effect your ability to post.

In reply to: Am Getting A Programmer To Help Me – What Should I Look Out ForWell depending on how much work they’re going to do…
If they are going to integrate into your current site design I wouldn’t pay more than $500. If they’re just going to install wordpress on a folder without any modifications I wouldn’t pay more than $50 since this takes less than 5 minutes.

In reply to: Install.php can’t find wp-config.php fileHere is what you can do to solve both problems.
Delete the wp-config.php file if you have one. If you don’t have one don’t worry about it.
chmod the directory where the wordpress installation is located to 777.
So if its /public_html chmod to 777
Then type in the URL of the installation in your browser. (if its your /public_html folder this will be https://www.##########.com if in a folder called blog https://www.##########.com/blog/)
You should get this message “There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.”
WordPress can only create the wp-config.php file if the directory is 777.
After you’ve done this you’ll get a screen which will allow you to enter the correct mysql database, username, and password (that you have previously set up).
Takes a short time to set up.
After this is done chmod back the directory to 755.

In reply to: 2.0 and the death of my permalink structureI think that this problem has been solved in the latest download. Did you install 2.0 from a fantastico script or something like that?
If so the code may be behind the latest downloadable. If this is the case you might like to try downloading the latest code. Delete the /wp-admin/ and the /wp-includes/ folder on your server then upload the latest folders from the latest downloadable.
Then try updating the permalinks again.

In reply to: Archives Not Working At AllApologies for the double post the forum server keeps timing out from my end.
This is the output from WordPress 2.0:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php

In reply to: Archives Not Working At AllI am on a linux server and the permalink update structure worked perfect on previous installations of wordpress.
The situation has not been resolved in that wordpress 2.0 cannot create the correct permalink structure.
I created an .htaccess file manually to hold me over until there is a fix. I did this by copying another .htaccess file from another blog running 1.5.2 and changing the file structure to suit the blog who’s .htaccess file is not working.

In reply to: Image Placement in 2.0BytesU, You can change the right and left alignment options by highlighting the image and pressing the “align left”, “align right”, or “align center” buttons or using the quick key shortcuts.
When the file is uploaded it uploads the original file plus it also resizes the image to a thumbnail and optimizes the image at the same time.
The thumb nail is much smaller in filesize.
“My preference is to have an option to make a true thumbnail (with small file size) inserted into a post that when clicked it pops up the original full sized image.”
It already can do this. You just got to insert the image from the ‘Browse All’ tab in the ‘Upload’ area.
Select the Image.
Click ‘Using Thumbnail’
Click ‘Linked To Image’

In reply to: Category DropdownScratch the comment I just made. If you leave the Categories drop down menu open and then login – logout.
When you log back in to make a post, the drop down menu is still down.
Thats really cool.

In reply to: Image Placement in 2.0Initially I didn’t like the fact that the original size doesn’t post when you select original size.
But when I resized my image there was no loss of quality to it.
I say stick to what it is currently. The biggest problem will be people who can’t resize or optimize images?
Which leads me to my next question.
Do the images get optimized when using this image resize?
