I also want to know how to add a list of all my blog entries. My old wordpress blog template listed all my blog entries in the sidebar. If that hd didn’t die I’d swipe the instructions from there.

Looks like the answer may lie in this documentation:

I finally found how to remove “lowercase” from the css files (after more than six months of searching using the wrong keywords)…

I’m still looking for ways to change /a href/ links to look like normal clickable blue links. I want to get rid of the dashed mouseover effects on links.

If you can help me with that i’d be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Thank you very very much! Removing <?php comments_popup_link(__(‘Comments (0)’), __(‘Comments (1)’), __(‘Comments (%)’)); ?>

from index.php did the trick just nicely. Now I’m off to narchives to find out how to do the same there i.e. remove the words/phrases…

“Comments”
“No comments yet.”
“Leave a comment”
“Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.”

…from the bottom of each blog entry (this seems caused by narchives, not wordpress).

Thanks again!

Andre

Thanks, narchives.php was exactly what I was looking for for creating an index.

Thank you very very much!!!! Manually chaning password via phpmyadmin worked perfectly!

Now I can log into my blog and remove comment checkmarks from old messages, so spammer-bots stop trying to post poker and porn comments and trackback spam on my messages posted before disabling comments.

thanks again!

Ok, reading through the threads on spam and spamassassin and spamkitty I guess what I want is to disable all comments so no one can even try posting spam, and disable moderation so i don’t have to read their dirty messages either (if that is possible).

Thanks

Stinkin’ blog spammers!!!!

They’ve added an unnecessary extra daily administration headache for me.

I removed comments from index.php so that comments are not available from a web browser. However, the comments option still appears as an action when reading the feed with an rss client.

That’s how spammers are still sending comments (that get trapped in blog admin approval) to my blog.

How do I remove the comments options completely so rss clients can’t see comments option and so i don’t have to have daily administration headaches of having to manually delete these porn and casino spam messages?

Thanks!

Andre
p.s. I hope what i said was clear(?). If not please ask. Thank in advance!!!

Thanks a bunch ryoken!

I upgraded to version 1.22 without a hitch and made the changes above as suggested

Also made the changes to remove comments. Also went smoothly. Nothing seems broken because everything is working fine. I think blog looks better without that comments field hanging after every message. My opinion though…

I will search more on how to create an index of my archives later (so people can pick and choose which posts they want to read without scrolling the whole page because my blog is gonna get huge).

I’ll fix the htaccess problem later. I think it may be a permission issue but not yet sure. I’ll know once i scroll through my server logs for errors //yuck//

Thanks again for the help.

fyi for anyone who’s following this thread. index.php in v 1.2.1 is a little different than example above. So if you are doing a cut and paste ‘find’ then look for these:

comments_popup_link(__(‘Comments (0)’), __(‘Comments (1)’), __(‘Comments (%)’));

include(ABSPATH . ‘wp-comments.php’);
