Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: weird 404Same problem; after the upgrade the server didn’t throw up 404s anymore but instead redirected to some sort of broken index page. Example: https://six-by-nine.org/nothere (usually those posts appear in different categories, not on the same page). I think this poster is having the same problem.
My permalink structure:
/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/Category base:
/blogSame .htaccess as above. Any ideas?

In reply to: Stuck at Step 2 of installationThe same thing happened to me (and I was going to make a post in the Troubleshooting section, oops). Step 2 kept loading and loading, but even though the tables were created it didn’t move to step 3. Changing the password solved the problem. Thank you!
FYI: Windows XP, Apache 1.3.27, PHP4.2.3, MySQL 4

In reply to: Control the number of posts displayed on the main page?Yay, that did the trick. Usually I love trying out new plugins, but somehow I really wanted to mess with the file itself this time. Bad me. Thanks a lot!

In reply to: Different category posts on different pages?Try this tutorial: Faking it: WordPress as CMS pt. 1:
<?php
$cat="1 2 3 4 5 6 7";
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>“What we have just done is tell the index page to load any content it finds in categories 1 -7, but to absolutely, positively ignore 8 – 10.”

In reply to: Control the number of posts displayed on the main page?I want only a small number of posts on the main page (maybe 5), but a larger number of excerpts (since that’s what I display otherwise) on category and search pages. I can control the latter through the options, and would now like to know how to limit the number for the index page. It’s possible, right?
Whoops, I forgot. I’m using WP 1.5.

In reply to: Classic Theme ModifiedVery clean and pretty. I don’t really see how it’s just “some modifications to the classic theme”, but I guess you mean it works with the default markup? Anyway, love that shade of red.

In reply to: Can’t login as admin?I’m not familiar with SSL, and can only recommend a forum search for “https”, through which I found a few posts that might help you, for example this one:

In reply to: Can’t login as admin?If you have access to PHPMyAdmin, can you go to the WordPress database that was created, and then to wp-options? Check if the siteurl value points to the correct URL. I seem to recall this as the cause for my own problems with installing WP.

In reply to: Custom fields: limited number of keys in drop-down menu?Found it. Should have looked there earlier.
In wp-admin/admin-functions.php, I changed the LIMIT value in this bit:
function meta_form() {
global $wpdb, $tablepostmeta;
$keys = $wpdb->get_col("
SELECT meta_key
FROM $tablepostmeta
GROUP BY meta_key
ORDER BY meta_id DESC
LIMIT 10");Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: A better search?@brak, not sure if you’ll see this, but I’m currently looking for a search function that does what you’re describing (esp. AND searches), and I was just wondering if you’re still thinking of working on this. Or anyone else, for that matter.

In reply to: Custom fields: limited number of keys in drop-down menu?Trying to bump this up on the list of threads (only this one time, promise). If someone could just tell me if the limited number of keymenu items is a feature, not a bug, I could maybe issue a request to change that. Otherwise, any ideas to the solution of this problem would be greatly appreciated. I had a look at the post.php file, but couldn’t find anything. Thanks for any help.

In reply to: Problem with AdhesiveTry checking the box again?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Problem with AdhesiveIf nothing works, you could also try backdating your most current post to Jan 05 or predating the sticky to Jan 07, so that the sticky post doesn’t share a date with any other entry. Don’t know if that changes anything, but it would be worth a try?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Problem with AdhesiveI can’t see any indication in your source code that the post in question is even marked as sticky. I’m using the plugin on my blog, and it works just fine.
Two questions. Have you downloaded the right zip file for the WordPress version you are using (i.e. adhesive15.zip if you’re using WP1.2.x)? Can you check again if the “sticky” checkbox in the ‘Publish, Draft, Private’ menu is checked?

In reply to: Inline Comment WidthThere’s a line in your wp-layout.css that says:
textarea {
width: 80%;
}and also a reference to the textarea size in wp-comments.php:
<textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="200" rows="15" tabindex="4"></textarea>
Try playing around with these.
