  • anyone? Thanks! (sorry for a “bump” post but these forum are getting pretty crowded… ?? )

    Hi!
    I’m using a slightly modified version of narchives @ https://www.mrxsss.com/blog/find.php
    Was wondering if there’s a way to add a MONTH pulldown menu to this really cool hack?
    And also to make the initial page default to the last year (and the last month if there’s a way to add that menu…)
    Thanks for any help! ??

    I guess you talking about the one with the two ” big symbols right?
    Pretty easy -> I just added a background img to a div tag and another one to the nested paragraph tag. If you need full code. Just let me know ??
    Thanks for the feedback!

    very nice pictures! ??
    For the links page, you meant to keep the bullet thing at the beginning of each li? ’cause with the links centered, it looks a little funky to me. You could use a list-style-type: none; CSS kinda thing to get rid of them. Just in case… ??

    wazzat for?

    loks to me that get_links_list is buggy… If you use get_links instead with something like that <?php get_links(2, '

    • ', '

      • ', '
      ', 0, 'updated', 1, 0, -1, -1)?> you’ll get your line break, nice and clean. But if you use -1 for the first option, it won’t display the categories, just all the links one after the other.
      So you have to set one get_links for each category and hard code the Cat name if you want the same functionality as get_links_list. Not so great solution either…
      If I’m wrong and there’s no bug, I’d love to be corrected! ??

    what would you want the badge to say exactly?

    If the spaces are indeed your problem, you could use eregi_replace to strip the spaces from the style name, so The style I Like becomes The-style-I-Like
    Not sure if that helps…

    The reason why I do it like that is because I want both categories displayed separately on the main page (two different <div> tags). If you just need a list of both cat combined, then TG’s technic is the way to go ??

    Actually, I just did that. But instead of using the index.php directly, I used php include inside another file I called “home.php” so, the code on home.php looks something like that:
    <?php include 'https://www.your_site.com/path/to/blog/index.php?cat=3';?>
    Just change the 3 to whatever category id you want. I works great with 2 includes but I’m assuming you could include some more if you wanted to…
    You might also want to use a stripped down copy of your index.php for the includes so you don’t get the <head>, <body>, etc… included each time.

    Thx TG! Actually, to do what I wanted (totally separated sections in the design for each cat), the solution was slightly different from your suggestion but you totally put me back into the right track. Instead of trying to include 2 different files with the $cat = x embedded on top, all I had to do was to use a scheme like that for each PHP include: <?php include 'https://www.blablabla.net/path/to/blog/index.php?cat=x';?>
    For some reason, it doesn’t work with relative URLs, I have to put in the absolute one for it to work. If someone knows why, I’d love to die slightly more intelligent/less stupid than I am now… ??

    site loads fine in Safari OS X. I had like a 1 sec delay at first load but I’m on pretty fast cable so… Didn’t observe any delay @ refresh ??

    OK, I didn’t think I was asking “The forbidden question.” I know they’re other scripts out there, bla bla bla… I like WP for its ease of use, and its PHP/MySQL back-end, and I’m used to customizing it since I use it for my blog. I think that not publishing stuff until today’s date is a cool feature, but I just wanted to know if there’s a simple way to override it since I believe this feature was added later on in the development. That’s all.
    On a side note, I think that if it was left as an on/off option in the admin area, it would open WP to a whole new world of possibilities. If the developers don’t want that, I’m no one to criticize their decision, it’s their baby, but I think mtanner and philor’s answers I got here are on the patronizing and useless side…

    I have mine set w/ 644 Is that a potential security issue?

    what’s a “reciprocal Link Checker”? Sounds way cool.
