Basically, I just created a variable equal to the same text you appended, then checked to see if was already there before appending it.

By the way, I also ran into a conflict between co-authors-plus and collapsing-archives, but that problem looks like its not in your code or implementation. I think your implementation is fine, I just mention this in case someone else brings it up.

Hmmm… On reflection, I was worried what the new SQL would do if a post wasn’t in a category, but on testing, it appears, that at least in 3.0.1, every post is in at least one category, even if it’s in the category named “uncategorized”.

The second problem turned out to be rather easy to fix. Just add “AND taxonomy = ‘category’ to the SQL. So line 87 in collapsArchList.php becomes:

$inExcludeCatQuery =”AND $wpdb->terms.slug $in ($inExclusionsCat) AND taxonomy = ‘category'”

Since problem one has a work-around (just use one category per post if you want to exclude that category from your archives), I think I’m done.

Mike here, answering my own question. The answer turned out to be in the hostname. I was using ‘localhost’ as the form suggested. The correct answer for my environment was ‘127.0.0.1’. I’m using EasyPHP on a Vista computer, if that means anything. Obviously, “localhost” and “127.0.0.1” should be equivalent, but they’re not on my system, and I’m not in a real hurry to find out why. Still, you’d think the install program would come up with an error instead of the mysterious blank screen.

Any other ideas? I have the exact same problem. The first install page works fine, but after a long time the address bar says: https://127.0.0.1/wp-admin/setup-config.php?step=2
but the screen is blank.
Curiously, the file wp-config.php is not created, which it seems it should be at this point.
