the more I think about this the worse it gets, say I get the comment script working correctly. When I impliment my archives page, and someone clicks on an entry thats an article or feature( 2 column) post, then they will be displayed again on the main index (3 col) as thats the url of the permalink… thats the same problem.

If I go with pages, then there is no rss support and the only archives I can get with pages, is to get pages which will not make any differentiation of the post whether its an article or a feature as pages have no categories. only way around that is to give each article post and feature post specific titles “article-blah blah” “feature-blah blah” then when the pages archive is listed that will appear to show the difference.

Last resort is 3 wordpress installs. 1) main 2) features 3) articles.
which will require 3 rss feeds, 3 versions of wp to upgrade, no site wide searches, and no site wide archives, or anything else sitewide for that manner. what I gain is more control over content management, but thats it…

I have been giving it my all to go with wordpress on this project and basically refuse to give up, but its not looking good..

thought i’d NEVER say this but its times like this that i miss MT…this would not even be an issue

oy, still bangin away at a solution for this…if someone could lend me a hand id be real thankful, if you want to see it in “inaction” you can email me and I’ll send you the link.. thanks alot…

ok thanks dave, pop ups are not something I want to use,

this site is not something ready for the public, so its not something i’ll post here…

for the two column indexes as I mentioned above i’m using display by post id:

<?php
/* Don't remove this line. */
$blog = 1;
if (!isset($p)) {
$p = 7;
}
require('../../wp/wp-blog-header.php');
?>

the only other thing I can think of is that I am using a base href for the entire site, but removing that to test has no effect on this comment redirection, it does the same with or without the base href.

this is the action code on the form:
<form action="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">

and I havent touched my wp-comments-post.php from the strayhorn install….

but to reiterate, commenting on this index displays the entire post and comments on the main index (3 col) rather than the index in this directory.

resorting to a bump :/

Im in a rock and a hard place here, as I need the sections of the site to be included in my rss, so I wanted to go with categories, but this redirect is keeping me from setting up my site that way.

If i do pages then none of it gets into my rss, (i know of the way of adding a page to the rss feed, but the restrictions on naming and the lack of it updating on new pages keeps me from going this route https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic.php?id=25678) and thats a major shot in my foot, as these sections will contain articles and features that are actually more important than anything on the main index.

The last dreadful scenario is to install wordpress in each of those sections, which I cant bear doing…

This has stumped development on my site, Id really appreciate it if someone could help me out with the comment redirect script or anything else that could be of assistance….

thanks alot…

hey moshu, thanks I figured that was what was doing it, I just dont know how to write it to do what I need…

yeah man welcome, and major congratz moving forward with wp.

excellent music reviews as well, I bkmarked ya.

ref karma hasnt done a thing to help my recent refs, the logs say it blocked attempts yet they all show up in my recent refs stats..

why tables?

you can do this with divs, give stylegala a visit and check how he did the 4col bit….

man thanks so much kafkaesqui and ryan, in my situation in the 1.3 alphas I was showing particular categories on different indexes to control sections of my site, the big problem came in with commenting on those entries, upon making the comment and hitting send it you would be redirected to the main index and the entry with the comment displayed there rather than on the page that the comment was made on…

* which is bad because the main index has a 3 col layout and the index’s i’m displaying specific categories have 2 col layouts.

throwing a hail mary bump~

what host are you using? that name looks like a lunarpages server name…

if you are on lunarpages please let me know as I was about to start an online magazine using them, and with those statistics and getting booted I certainly wont stay with them (my site is in dev stage atm)

i’m looking to do this as well, I’m about to set up a site using alot of Pages, and if there is no way to get rss on those, that blows my whole site strategy

could this be a plugin?

in light of what kafkaesqui said about the loop it may be difficult, but what would the alternative be? to roll your page feeds by hand?

seems a shame to have pages but no integrated rss

woot.. fixed that….just had the wrong file path this time….

thanks again dew!

u rock… do the dew!

well we are getting somewhere now…. the other commenters gravs are showing correctly in addition to mine, however now we arent getting the default to show up…
