Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Top Level Categories with WP 2.5This plugin is really important for my site as well! I can’t suddenly change back to having /category/eaxmple, as Search engines have spidered my whole site without it.
Does anyone know a fix for this plugin?
Thanks!

In reply to: Export vs Database Backup?Thanks for the reply. So as a regular thing you would suggest exporting the xml, rather than actually backing up the tables etc… through myphpadmin?
While some of my themes rely on id’s, these can obviously be edited.

In reply to: WP Latest Posts in non-wordpress siteHi,
I got over this hurdle the other day. Here’s what I did:
Create a php file in your themes i.e. latest.php and put the below code in it:
———–
<?php /* Template Name: Latest */ ?> <?php global $post; $myposts = get_posts('numberposts=4&category=8'); foreach($myposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> <?php endforeach; ?>
———–
numberposts=4&category=8
Is simply what it says, how many posts you want displayed and from which category.Then create a page with no content in and call that i.e. latest-posts. Assign your latest.php as the template to be used.
Then just create a PHP include on the page you want i.e.
———–
<? include ("https://www.yourdomain.com/wordpress/latest-posts/");?>
———–
Then it’s done!

In reply to: Will Upgrade ‘Kill’ My post.php??Hi mfields, thanks for your reply to!
So based on that page you linked, if I download and JUST upload the below files, then the update will be done?
wp-admin\admin.php
wp-admin\includes\file.php
wp-admin\install.php
wp-admin\setup-config.php
wp-app.php
wp-content\plugins\akismet\akismet.php
wp-includes\formatting.php
wp-includes\functions.php
wp-includes\pluggable.php
wp-includes\post.php
wp-includes\query.php
wp-includes\taxonomy.php
wp-includes\version.php
wp-includes\wp-db.php
wp-mail.php
wp-settings.php
xmlrpc.phpAs it’s not a massive amount of files, this seems to potentially be the fastest option!
Thanks!

In reply to: Will Upgrade ‘Kill’ My post.php??Thanks for the quick reply Michael.
Hopefully I’ll remember which files I’ve changed and do what you suggest!!
If it was to be the case that they update a file I’ve customised, is it just a case of going through it and changing it again afterwards?
Also, where can I see a list of which files have been updated in the latest version?
Finally, would you suggest I use this plugin:
