In reply to: Force WP-Cache to refresh home page?the homepage is index.php which also reads the posts and pumps it through the filters, plugins , themes etc. So in reality it should all ready update the cache for the home page, also if the content of the home pages doesnt change, the cache isn’t changed.
whats the URL you are talking about??

In reply to: Deleting Draft Posts/Pagesthe should be listed under post, e.g your DRAFTS, again like other issues plugins cause issues as well as give you extended use of WP ?? are you running the standard wp-admin or someones themed version of it?
You do not need to publish them to delete them, just click on the draft, and at the bottom of the DRAFT it should have DELETE THIS DRAFT. I just did it on my live blog about 2 minutes ago ??
cheers

I keep seeing wordpress installs today that dont have enough memory for PHP, you need to make sure your webhost isnt using the default of 8MB for php scripts, 16MB should work and your webhost should whine about it since there are some hosts that use 128MB for php scripts or more (this is adjusted inside the php.ini file on the web server itself)

In reply to: White Screen With upgrade.phpChrisH
I have seen this a ton of times and is either lack of memory allocated on the web server for PHP scripts, or a chmod issue where the web server cant read/execute to the directory.
first things first make sure your directories have a chmod of 755.
Then find out if your php.ini file on the webhost has been setup for 16MB of memory or more. FYI the default is only 8MB you webhost can help with that.
if you want to know what your memory allocation is , this script will dump a ton of php info to your browswer
<?php
phpinfo();
?>Good luck

In reply to: IE Error Messagewell I would first revert the the default theme! the theme you have is full of errors, and its causing the browser to crash. I just tried it myself. It can also be caused by a plugin!
so please turn off all plugins, and try the classic or default theme. No errors? well next step it to active one plugins at a time and look for errors. If all your plugins you want are ativated switch to the theme you want, which of course could be part of the problem.. Repeat the deactivation/activation of plugins until you find the horked up one.
Best of luck
FYI: Im not going back to your blog since I don’t trust what is going on ..

In reply to: No Quick Tags on 2.2it works on my blog, but I am also the webhost owner.
one thing to consider with the release of WP 2.2 some webhost barely have enough memory allocated for php scripts and wordpress appears to not complete the job.
The default is a mere 8MB for php scripts, I have seen some hosts have this higher than 128MB, but wordpress and most plugin seem to work with as little as 16MB. How do you change this settings? well its the webhosts job to edit php.ini and restart the apache daemon so it reads the new settings..
Also I found that switching to the default or classic themes is always best and turning off all plugins before thinking that wordpress is broken. I would suggest doing both and see if the quick tags work correctly.
Cheers

In reply to: attachment iconsYou don’t need a plugin to do that, its part of the web server and what icons it will show for the mime/types. You could do it with a plugin but why? since it would require more server processing. But messing with the apache config aned icons might be too complication for the non webserver type of blogger.
I would contact the plugin author for help with their plugin
Peace

In reply to: Weird Errorhmm did you use fantistico to install wordpress or FTP? you may now have the correct permissions on the files and directories. this happens when webhosts don’t keep their scripts up to date.
It also would not hurt to talk to the webhosting company and make sure that support the correct version of PHP and mysql required by wordpress (refer to the wordpress docs)
also consider that the hello WORLD is inside the database, so if you imported your old database you would have your old posts and the hello world would be gone ??
Peace..

Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Editing theme fileschuck. newbies are people too! don’t beat yourself up.
The files need to be writable by the web server user account, so using your control panel of FTP program you need to change MODE (chmod) so these files can be written to.
chmod 755 works for most, but chmod 666 should work just as well.
If you are not sure how to do this, please ask your webhost to help you out.
