In reply to: single post on homepage- what’s wrong with this code?I think this must have been caused by using a / in the title of a post. It seems that the only post that causes the one just before it to also show has the slash character in its title.
Maybe it’s a bug, who knows?
I just added another post and it shows on the front page by itself so I am satisfied.

In reply to: links not clickable when post publishedGood eye Kafkaesqui, that was exactly it.
You posted at about the same time I realized the links were OK in the permalink but not the category archive.
Thanks for the help.

In reply to: links not clickable when post publishedI have tried it using quicklinks and manually putting in the tags- both with the same result. This is a fresh install with no plugins.

In reply to: “How To” Present Single Category on Separate Page?Well, I’m no code wizard, but the common sense solution to me seems to be to exclude categories 1,2,4, and 5 from the loop on the category 3 page

In reply to: How to use the template type editor instead of themes in 1.5Actually, this works just fine.
I must have goofed up some other file(s) as I was tracking down where the array was deifined. I just re-uploaded the entire wp-admin dir. and then modified only the menu.php file as shown above and everything is marvy.
I’ll look into converting to themes when I have time in the future.

In reply to: How to use the template type editor instead of themes in 1.5I don’t really have a 1.2 ‘template’ I have a set of stylesheets, a style switcher, and an index.php based on a design migrated from movabletype.
as seen here: https://r-l-w.net/RLW::UHF/
I’ve spent some time getting it set up and although I may convert to the theme system at some point, I’d rather run with what I’ve already got for now.
I guess my real question is why did adding one entry to an array goof up all this other stuff and how can I get it to work?I wasn’t getting these errors before.
Does anyone have any insight?

In reply to: How to use the template type editor instead of themes in 1.5Actually, it seems this may not be such a good idea.
I’m getting errors about headers already being sent all over the place and from a bunch of different files.
Can anybody tell me what is wrong with what I did?

In reply to: Blog on predesigned siteThis sounds pretty easy, but I’m not sure what you mean by ” publish to one page that already exists”
Could you explain a little more, please?

In reply to: How to……..make new pagesI’m not exactly clear on what you are trying to do.
Do you want the version info to be on a separate page, with a link to it on the main page?
If so, you can write a simple HTML page and use file upload (but you’ll have to add html to the allowable file upload types in the options -> miscellaneous section) and then just put a link to it on your index.php but if you put a link on the index.php page (or if you want the version text to appear on the index.php page only once) you need to put the link or the text outside what is called the loop.
The line
<?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
starts the loop which lists all the posts which should be seen on the index page and the line
<?php endforeach; else: ?>
ends the loop.Anything between those two lines will show up with each post so to make it appear only once, put it above the first line of the loop to show above the posts, or after the last line of the loop to be shown below the posts.
Does that make sense?
Sorry for sounding like a jerk in my first post.

In reply to: How to……..make new pagesIt’s cool- I’m calm. ??
Just trying to help a brother get up to speed.
Did what I said help you SeanB?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How to……..make new pagesYeah, and, you might be surprised to discover SeanB that when you view the source of the web page delivered to your browser it looks nothing like the php source code you see in the edit template window.
Why? Because what you see in the edit template window is the php code that is used by the server to generate the web page on the fly.
This concept is called ‘dymanic content’ and it is kind of hard for those who are new to it to grasp sometimes.
Look at it this way- your templates are instructions the server uses to build the web page that is delivered to a browser. The template itself is never visible to people who view your site, viewers can only see the HTML generated based on the code in the template.
To post a new entry, go to the ‘Write’ page and type your entry. Then click ‘Publish’ and it will appear on your index.php page.
