Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Shortstat database does not existinstall.php and install-helper.php are both in wp/wp-admin
So are upgrade-functions.php and upgrade-schema.php and upgrade.php
I did not delete them after my previous upgrade. So maybe that is not the problem?
I have not upgraded to 1.5.1.3 yet. Do I need to?

In reply to: pixelpost integrationSorry for the delay. I edited the templates I developed for my WP blog so they used statements from PP and it was very easy. There’s lots more you can do, but I went the simple route and have two independent sites that just look roughly the same.
There is a WP plug-in here that shows the latest PP photo on a WP site. That’s the one I can’t currently get to work. It should be possible to display a larger image too, but I don’t have the PHP skills.

In reply to: pixelpost integrationI’m not sure what you mean in this case by integrate, but I have both PixelPost and WP using the same basic template. At the moment the latest image plug-in isn’t working for me (don’t know why) but other than that everything is fine.

In reply to: 3-column layout w/ space between columnsHave you tried margins and padding in the stylesheet? It rather depends on what kind of three-column layout you are using. I don’t know Trident, but maybe someone who does can help. Some3-col layouts float the side columns in extra large margins of the central column. Others do it differently. Give us a clue.

In reply to: upgrading 1.2 -> 1.5, comments not displayingMoshu; thank you so much. That was exactly the problem. All I need to do now is format the comment styles!
I’m wondering, as a lot of people probably base their own templates on default, as I and tenchan did, and the default does not seem to include a call to comments within The Loop, maybe this should be stated in the instructions. I don’t remember seeing anything about it. Is it worthwhile me editing the Codex, or am I wrong about it being missing from the default theme?
Thanks again. And your visual theme explanation is Tip Top.

In reply to: upgrading 1.2 -> 1.5, comments not displayingI’ve spent a day or so trying to figure out how to get Comments to display from my template, updated from 1.2 to 1.5 and, despite the excellent hints here and elsewhere in the forums, I still cannot seem to get comments to display. The link to comments shows up on the main blog page, but when you click on that, although you get to the single post on a page, the comments are not visisble.
I am not sure which file I should be editing for this. I do not actually have a SINGLE.PHP file and that does not seem to affect displaying of single posts, which is fine.
So how do I edit INDEX.PHP to display comments when someone clicks on the comments link?
The loop part of my INDEX.PHP looks like this:
<div class="content">
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?><?php the_date('','<h2>','</h2>'); ?>
<div class="headline">
<div class="title">
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
</div ><div class="meta"><?php _e("Filed under:"); ?> <?php the_category() ?> — by <?php the_author() ?> @ <?php the_time() ?> <?php edit_post_link(); ?>
</div>
</div >
<?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>
<div class="feedback">
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<!--
<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
--><div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php posts_nav_link('','','« Previous Entries') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php posts_nav_link('','Next Entries »','') ?></div>
</div><?php else : ?>
<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
<p class="center"><?php _e("Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here."); ?><?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
Which is basically copied from the default theme and modified a little to suit my old template.
Thanks

In reply to: Padding photos so text doesn’t butt against them.Everysandwich, Given the information in the style.css that you have discovered it becomes much easier. In the IMG tag, insert class=”alignright” or whatever after you have pasted it from the notebook. That’s it.
So it reads <img class=”alignright” src=”https://link.to.your.picture” />
This tells the image to use the CSS setting of the class alignright, which has already been set up for you.

In reply to: Moto GP Magazine & Valentino Rossi sites powered by wordpressPossibly something in the way you have coded the widths of the divs. IE hanndles these very differently. Alas, I don’t have IE so I cannot investigate. Sorry.

In reply to: Moto GP Magazine & Valentino Rossi sites powered by wordpressMotoGP: Alignment is off in Safari (Mac). Home crashes left and the footer is above the ads and way off to the right.
Rossi: No problem with footer, but Home is still off left.
Otherwise, they look nice and clean.

In reply to: IE Win not seeing stylesheetNah. They’ve been going to it every couple of days for the past couple of months, ever since I first reported this problem.

In reply to: IE Win not seeing stylesheetWeirdly, after upgrading to WP 1.5 the one person who had a persistent problem with this reports that it has vanished and everything is now fine. I have no idea why.

In reply to: Plugin: Pixelpost’s Latest Thumbnail in WPI did exactly as you said. Downloaded the zip again from your site, unzipped it and uploaded it to wp-content/plugins without touching it.
It does not show up in plugin management.
Very odd, I know.

In reply to: Plugin: Pixelpost’s Latest Thumbnail in WPI cannot seem to activate the plug in in 1.5. As I said, it does not show up in the plug in admin page in WordPress.
This is the version detail from the plug in:

In reply to: get_links_list now inserts h2?I fixed the CSS to restore the look I had before upgrading to 1.5, thanks to the advice in this thread, but I wonder whether the semantic whizzes here reckon that one should be consistent about all the heading levels in a sidebar. Should pages, Other, Meta and Categories all be in H2 tags?
