Not using many plugins…
Akismet
Exec-PHP
Feed List
No WWW

Disabled Akismet and No WWW – Comments Worked
Reactivated Akismet – Comments still worked

Appears that Matt Mullenweg’s No WWW plugin is the culprit!

Some additional info…
I don’t have the wp-cache plugin.
I have tried changing themes, with no luck either.
I’m just in the process of testing with plugins disabled.

I upgrade with no problems…these are the steps I used, of course, ymmv ;^):

1. deactivated all the plugins
2. changed theme to default
3. uploaded ALL 2.01 files
4. opened upgrade.php file in browser
5. reactivated plugins & set theme back

If you have a custom theme that incorporates any specific plugin code, its crucial that you set your theme to default prior to uploading the 2.01 files and runnng upgrade.php

Nice work squish! Took a while finding it, but the combination of the usermeta and userextra plugins is awesome! It is *so close* to what I’ve been looking for.

I am encountering a couple undesireable behaviours however:

* I have one author set up to post to one category, but the one containing the apostrophe still appears when logged in (and it’s checked by default). What if the category slug, or category id was used instead of the name?

* Also, is there a way that authors can still be able to view all categories while just browsing the blog? I am trying to just designate which categories various authors can post to…not limit what they see when browsing. Currently, if they are logged in, they can only browse content in the categories they can post to. To browse the whole site, they need to logout.

problem resolved after upgrading php and reinstalling mysql. Part of the problem was the mysql user accounts… had to create a username@localhost acct, not just username

thanks for the reply…I did check the php.ini, and the mysql my.ini, and all looks good there.

I did come across a reference to the old_password() function in mysql, and I applied this function to the user that I am using for the wordpress database.

Now, instead of the connection error, I recieve a page full of errors similar to this:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in \path\to\wordpress\wp-includes\functions.php

WordPress database error: [Table ‘my_database.wp_options’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = ‘permalink_structure’

I’m running into this ‘Error establishing a database connection’ problem as well.

-Win2K
-MySQL 4.1.11
-php 4.3.10

The wp-config settings should be fine. I’ve set up wordpress on a few other systems (however this is the first Windows installation I’ve attempted)

Using MySQL Admin I can connect to the service as localhost.
Tried substituting 127.0.0.1 in place of localhost, as well as a couple other IP’s bound to the system, and the actual machine name. None of these worked. I also tried adding enable-named-pipes to my.ini, and restarted mysql, but it wouldn’t start after that.

I’ve also ensured that my username is able to connect from localhost, as well as remotely. Seems to work using mysql admin tools, but not in WordPress.

Any other things that I should look at?

I found it in template_functions_post.php – line 314
echo '<li id="pagenav">' . $r['title_li'] . '<ul>';

removed the bold section and the themes now behave in both IE & FF now. I just hope that this doesn’t break other themes.

I’ve been playing around with the wp_list_pages function as well, and have found it really annoying that it insists on adding that outside <li id=”pagenav”>. I’m modifying the Connections theme, and in IE the Pages section doesn’t display properly because of the pagenav li. In Firefox it’s fine….but a few friends insist on using IE despite my incessant preaching.

I would like to keep my blog as ‘compatible’ as possible, to simplify future upgrades etc. Is there anyway possible to exclude that bit within the function?
