Plug-in did the trick and seems to work perfectly with MU.

In reply to: List Category then Post title, without a plug-in … in WordPress MUWordPress MU (multi user) can be found at: mu.www.ads-software.com
For security reasons, WP MU, doesn’t allow users to do any changes to the templates used on their specific blog. Changes need to be made elsewhere and then copied over by FTP.
The problem with the above, is that it requires the user of the blog to manually punch in the code for every new category they add – figure out the ID of the category and then change it for every loop.
It should be something along the lines of:
Get first category (by ABC)
do break and list
get all posts names that fit category (linking to actual post)
do another break
—start over in the same loop (second category by ABC, then posts)Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: I don’t know SQL, please helpAaah, turning off the plug-ins did the trick. I did try that before, but somehow it didn’t work…now it does.
It might be this countdown timer;

Thanks a lot for the help, both of you

In reply to: List all posts by title on one pagehttps://www.edotistic.com/?page_id=329
Thanks a bunch, that was just what I was looking for. My mother emailed me, telling me that she had problems keeping track of all the posts, this should make it a bit easier to find older ones.
Took me a minute or two to figure out that I needed to get the “runPHP” plugin since I was calling the function from a page and then another five minutes to notice that I needed to tick of the option for PHP on the page in the little box thingy.
This is acctualy pretty neat as long as you don’t have too many posts, I can see that something like 8000 posts might make this worse – but so far I’m only up to something like 250.
Thanks again!

In reply to: ADMIN is toooo slow (last couple of days)This happened to me too. I disabled the ShortStat plug-in and now everything is back to normal.
How strange is this? Several installations of the same plug-in, failing at the same time?? Has anyone figured this one out?

In reply to: get_links_list is not styledI think I got it working, looks like the Photonical theme had no styles pre-made for li or ul in the sidebar.css – something I didn’t think of; I just copied the css from the default kubrick theme and pasted it into the sidebar .css of Photonical.

In reply to: get_links_list is not styledYes I read the documentation you’re linking to, played aorund with it for quite a while – without any results.
the “stitle” doesn’t realy do much, it styles the headline like this:
<br /><div class="stitle"><?php _e('Links'); ?></div>
and the “UL” is just something a was testing, doesn’t realy do anything, just changes the font, however it won’t change the size.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: New Theme PhotanicalI’ve installed this theme, but for some reason there is no styling on the blogroll in the sidebar – it seems to draw on the default template, since it looks rather like kubrick.
It’s forcing it to list [li] them instead of [br]; like it does the rest of the links on the page.Anyone notice this? I’ve been trying to figure out what part of the stylesheet [if any existing one] it’s trying to call, but no luck

In reply to: Sidebar different in IE and FFHmmm, I think I was trying way too complex things – dumbing down your bug hunting almost always seems to be the best way to go.
I think, as stated by podz, that the menu with for my sidebar was off by some 5 pixels and that cuased it to go bananas.
“margin-left: ” beneath was at 405, changed it to “400” and now it looks great (changed it in the stylesheet.php, not the sidebar.php, in case fightingfriends would be wondering)
/******** Begin Sidebar ********/
#sidebar {
padding: 14px 12px 0 0;
margin-left: 400px;
font: 1em Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
color: #888888;}
Awsome! Thanks alot!

In reply to: Sidebar different in IE and FFI came here for the exact same reason – Opera and Firefox look great, but IE shows the menu far down in the bottom of the page somewhere.
mine as at https://www.edotistic.com
check far down for the menu
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: garbled install.php in browserhmmmm, the host support group finaly came up with an answer…turns out I didn’t tick the PHP option when I signed up for the damned thing – now they want me to sign up a new one and yadda yadda yadda.
Well, thanks anyways, you guys are princes among men – sorry to have wasted your time.
