Many apologies for being so long in responding. I did not think anyone was going to answer regarding my issue. The thing is I could see what was going on in that the search form was going up to the main page: https://blogrhythm.com and of course there is nothing but a default page there.

I added your code into the searchform and being not a complete moron instead of leaving “myurl” blank, I changed it to my url. Many thanks for your help as I knew that was exactly what I needed, I just didn’t quite know how to accomplish it.

It depends on what you resize, but I know that in 1.5.x the way to resize text was to increase the percentage that I think was located in the CSS, but don’t quote me on that. As for resizing everything all at once, I should think that the CSS file would also be the place to do that, but I imagine each portion of the template must be addressed separately. Your sidebar, header, body, etc. must be individually resized.

Ah well, must be the strangeness of my interrogative statement. Many apologies.

Thank you for responding to me evita. This is the code for my searchform.php for the default kubrick template using version 1.5.2.

<form method=”get” id=”searchform” action=”<?php echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]; ?>”>
<div><input type=”text” value=”<?php echo wp_specialchars($s, 1); ?>” name=”s” id=”s” />
<input type=”submit” id=”searchsubmit” value=”Search” />
</div>
</form>

Keep in mind the unusual novelty of my situation. My portfolio site is simply the jimzworld.com and my blog is in a subdirectory addition /cgi/wp. Any help on this will be awesome.

Perhaps when you upload an image there is no specifications as to where that image is to be sent. I guess the place to start would be in the options-upload area. I had problems earlier with loading my pictures once uploaded, but once I removed a “/” from the beginning of the directory where the picture was located…all was well.

day 2: still no search.

I have this same problem. I am using WordPress 1.5.2 kubrick theme. Here is the thing though, my blog is added to a subdirectory of my main website https://jimzworld.com. My guess is the parameters of the search are somehow causing it to search my main site as well when all I want it to do is contextually search my /wp area.

I have looked in the “search” and “searchform” templates but there is nothing there to hint as to the cause of this. Any help on this matter would be great.

The reason I think the search is defaulting to the main site is everytime I do a search it automatically goes to my homepage instead of displaying possible content within my blog.

I was having this problem, searched in vain through all the threads. I checked my config since I have been using wordpress for awhile I figured it was not a config problem and was right. I also created this .php program to check to see if I could connect to my database and I could not.

So the obvious was the answer. The database, as inferred in the error message was actually down. So, all I needed to do was wait for it to come back up.

Sometimes, it’s the most obvious answer that is the answer. One thing was made glaringly obvious in my experience though. I know very little about wordpress, or .php. I probably know enough just to be dangerous.
