I’m seeing the same odd save-and-kick stuff. I haven’t done an exhaustive test, but I do edit posts that have already been published, so maybe that’s where I am seeing it. I find it very discombobulating (ching! $10!). My thoughts:
1. IMHO, I believe the Save button should *always* leave you in the editor. All it should do is Save. It shouldn’t assume I want to start a new post. It shouldn’t assume I want to see the post I just saved. The interface already has choices for both of those.
2. The Save button should perform an AJAX autosave, without reloading the page. Why does it have to reload the page? Is it doing something that autosave doesn’t? If so, what?
My 2 cents.

In reply to: Feedburner Validation ProblemI had the same exact problem, but in my case it was a plugin, Genki Announcement 1.3. The plugin author has been alerted.

In reply to: Google Sitemap Generator not notifying Google and YahooThat was it in my case. curl is not enabled by default. I enabled it, and voila, the sitemap was submitted successfully to all services.

In reply to: next_post_link broken in 2.3, codex not updatedI figured out my problem. I thought it was a result of the tag and cat changes in 2.3, but it was a result of exporting and importing my posts to a new install. The categories were added to the new install in alpha order, instead of their previous order, so their cat_ids were all different.
My bad, again.

In reply to: Google Sitemap Generator not notifying Google and YahooJust bumping this up because I have the same problem. WordPress 2.3, Sitemap Generator v. 3.0 (no beta that I can see). It announces that it had a problem while notifying Google and while notifying Ask.com.
Any movement on this problem?

In reply to: wp_footer() code insertion does not work for meOkay, so I’m a dumbass. For the betterment of other dumbasses out there, I will point out just in what way I am a dumbass.
Every plugin I have chosen to try, which professes to insert code using wp_footer, also offers the option to not do so if the visiting user is logged in to the blog and of a certain user level (e.g., Administrator).
I only ever (Ever!) checked the code while I was, you guessed it, logged in as an administrator.
It took two things happening for me to realize what was going on. Firefox crashed on me, so I fired up Safari (where I was not logged in), and it worked. And I tried the Ultimate Google Analytics plugin, which inserts a very helpful comment to the effect that the code was not inserted because you’re an Administrator. Dumbass!
My apologies to the good people of this board for wasting all y’all’s time.

In reply to: How do I stop pagination on search results?After hours (literally) trying to find the answer, I posted here and discovered what you just pointed out not five minutes later.
So, I am upping the “Show at most” posts in the Reading Options to a more reasonable number (like 10) and will instead use a custom query on the home page to display just two posts there, instead of using the Reading Options setting.
Thank you, moshu.

In reply to: Feeds there, but not in readersAn update. With some experimentation, I have discovered this: going to the full feed address, ie blogurl/wordpress/wp-rss2.php does work, both in the browser straight up, and in the readers I have tried. Using autodiscovery does not work in the readers, and putting in blogurl/feed/ does not work.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

In reply to: Admin needs to authorize a user registrationI am also really interested in this. I have a family blog, and I’d like people to be able to register themselves, if they know me and my family. But in case I don’t know them, I’d like to approve this self-registration first.
I haven’t found a plugin to do this, and I am exploring writing one, but have never done it before (and I’m only a wee beginner with php).
In case there’s an enterprising plugin writer just looking for a challenge, here’s what I’d spec out if I were doing this:
Using the ac_authentication.php plugin, I already can prevent people who are not logged in from seeing content. Instead, they get bumped to the wp-login page.
I’d like them to be able to register from the login page, but I’d like that registration process to make their membership provisional on my approval.
Whatdo you out there think? Easy plugin to write? Would you? ??
