It may not necessarily be the plugin’s fault. Many people have got this to work just fine, myself included. Do you have any other plugins this might conflict with? Try disabling all your plugins and starting them again one at a time to find the culprit and make sure you have the latest version of SMF and WordPress.

I’ve noticed this too, but the only thing I’ve been able to figure out is to go and update the post manually (IE, go into the dashboard after it has been posted, go to the post, and click update).

I’m looking at the code now, but I can’t seem to figure out how to get it to post when there’s a scheduled update.

I have a preexisting website with it’s own CSS, look, images, etc.

What I want to do is have wordpress handle my articles/blog, but maintain the look of my website. I tried this before and got it to work… a bit… but certain things, like categories, the archive, etc, disappeared and I couldn’t figure out how to get them to work.

Is there a “How to” regarding how to do this? Or could someone direct me to the (no doubt) many articles I’ll need to read in order to do this?

My PHP coding skills barely involve knowing how to call something (like my header, side bar, and footer, for example. XD), so please bare with me.

I’m planning on including the Comic Planner add-on as well with this, and hope to have the comic in a separate directory from the blog itself. So, site.com/comic-page/1 and site.com/blog/2008/08/Title.

Is it possible to do this in the same WordPress install, or would I actually have to have two separate WordPress installs?

And finally, I’d like to have a dynamic blog post on my non-wordpress index page, so the first 1-3 blog posts appear on the homepage. Thought I’d throw that in, rather than make another topic. (This was suppose to be a short post! ><)

Hmm… I tried, but I can’t get anything to work! >< All it comes up with is:

“Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.” ><

Alright. I figured it out. Since the PHP is calling for each piece speratlely, it loads them all with the tags, so I only have DOCTYPE and such in the header, and /html tag at the footer. I also messed up and just needed to check my code.

The problem was I accidentally pasted the command to get the footer and sidebar at the end of the header. After removing it, everything worked fine. I discovered it using W3.org ‘s validation system, when it said I had the html closing tag before my main content began. Thanks for helping me out, Mercime, though I feel rather foolish now. XD

Do I mark this as resolved, or does a mod? >.>

Edit: Whoops. I’m not sure what happened. (My post disappeared when I tried to edit it.)

EDIT 2: Well, that’s done. Still having trouble though… hmm… what would a validator say….

EDIT 3: D’oh! I have DOCTYPES everywhere. ??; Gotta go change those….

Ah. Well, that would be a problem. I’ll go do that.
