Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Ecto and WordPress 2.01Has there been any resolution on this?
I am unclear whether I should change the settings for upload in my WP options, to absolute paths as suggested by the thread, or not.
Thanks
Jeremy

In reply to: Looking for some feedbackNo, not really messed up. Just hard against the edge.

In reply to: Looking for some feedbackI like it, although I would give a little more space to the left margin on About me. This is in Safari.

In reply to: Best permissions to setThank you.

In reply to: Best permissions to setMany thanks. I’ve changed all the folders, but possibly not all the files. I need something better than fugu for doing it, and more time.
Interestingly, I noted that some folders — eg wp-content/uploads — have a different owner, and will not actually let me change permissions.
Should I change Owner on those?

In reply to: You do not have permissionCould well be htaccess. I deleted that and seem to be making progress. Thanks. I’ll see how it goes now and report back.
Later … all is spiffy. Except for permalinks, which is probably something to do with htaccess too. Off to fix that.

In reply to: Wrapping text adjecent to image? (tried codex)Actually, you don’t even have to define the CSS globally, though that is far the easiest way. You can also put everything you need inside the img tag. Like this:
<img src="the/image.jpg" style="float: left; border: 10px solid red" alt="alt">
That way you can play with things in a single entry and maybe when you have them how you want create a new style for future.
One problem may also be that if you have been working on the CSS sheet, you may need to clear the cache of your browser to see the effect of the changes.

In reply to: pixelpost integrationI suppose I should amend this thread now. I have changed themes in PixelPost, no longer using the one that I did by copying my main WordPress layout. I am still not sure which I prefer. There’s something to be said for having the simplicity of the current layout, which is specifically designed to display photographs. But there’s also something to be said for the previous attempt. Ah well …

In reply to: Viewing problems in Safari on MacsIt does look odd, I agree, but I’m no expert. I think this is something to do with the way IE handles poadding and margins. As I recall it is non-standard, but I cannot remember the details.
Sorry I cannot be more help.

In reply to: pixelpost integrationI’m afraid I really don’t know. I suppose you might be able to put it in an iFrame, but why would you want to?

In reply to: Links and posts disappeared when in sidebarsI removed all four of the plugins I have, one at a time, and that did not make any difference. I still have the “doesn’t exist” error.
I then removed the change I made to header.php to use slimstat. This consisted of adding this line:
<?php @include_once( $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/slimstat/inc.stats.php" ); ?>
immediately after the <body> tag and before the first <div> tag.
I checked my WP config.php, and that seems to have the correct value for DB_NAME
None of that made any difference.
Then I deleted the entire slimstat folder. And lo, the error vanished. I put it back, and the errors returned.
So I guess what I’ve shown is that slimstat is the problem, and I will have to take it up with the author. which is a real drag, because it was working so well!
Thanks for listening.

In reply to: Inserting a simple picture in sidebarThat suggests that the path you have to the image is wrong. the browser cannot find the image.
Check the path you have given in IMG SRC= and see.

In reply to: Splitting archivesThanks. I’ll try that. But when I read the Codex entry for wp-get-archives I could not see an option for type=yearly.
Maybe I’ll find a way to declutter using the drop down list option.
