p.s. it does actually post the thumbnail properly so it does work..BUT i dont want that error!

tried with drupal for a while but just didnt click with it – same with joomla, didnt take long to understand the WP templates/plug ins etc so prefer WP. Forum is also great place for quick advice.

thanks, the db server needed a total restart im monitering it over the next few days

further clues to help advise me are that, ive recently upgraded from 2.7.1 to 2.8, one of the signed ADMIN USERS reckon its happens when they try to add a post etc

ah sorry i should have said its to run outside of the loop, can i run a separate loop to deal with this?

I use firefox with the web developer plugin to see whats going on, you can use it to see what your DIVs id, classes etc are up to, im afraid it a lot of trail end error. It adds some cool tools into you toolbar including validation etc.

I usually take a step back if there are alot of issues and work through one css command at a time to see if any changes make things better or worse, obviously start with the id’s or classes that may apply to the problem, margins and paddings can often through things out and look at your float and display CSS as well. Measure all widths, paddings, margins and make sure they add up and so on..

ah i see you have already used browser shots (alot!), try this youll see in ie6 its gets worse im afraid:

Def some issues in CSS:
see results here

you need to view in multiple browsers on PC and MAC, this sort of thing used to drive me crazy, try making sure your CSS and HTML is valid as well.

To view in other browsers try this: Browser Shots i just go for ie6, 7, 8, firefox and Safari.

Ive got the same problem but get archives doesnt support a cat exclude function, this is supposed to solve it but i cant get it to work

thanks mike

Thanks, just had a quick look sound like the thing. I guess its beyond the normal functionality of the get archives tag?

.. sorry i ment more than one category, if its just one its not a problem!

hi, further to this idea i have the problem if the post is in one or more category it displays a list within a list, ideally i just want to show all the catagories the post is in but ONLY the other posts in the catagory it was selected…hope that makes sense!

<?php global $post; $categories = get_the_category();foreach ($categories as $category) : ?>
<h2>&raquo; <?php echo $category->name; ?></h2>
<p><?php _e('Category: ', 'blank'); ?><?php the_category(', ') ?></p>
<ul class="rightcol">
<?php $posts = get_posts('numberposts=20&amp;category='. $category->term_id);foreach($posts as $post) :?>
<li><span class="threecolsmall"><?php the_time('j M y') ?></span><br />
<a href='<?php the_permalink() ?>'><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<!--<li><strong><a href="<?php echo get_category_link($category->term_id);?>" title="View all posts filed under <?php echo $category->name; ?>">ARCHIVE FOR '<?php echo $category->name; ?>' CATEGORY &raquo;</a></strong></li>-->
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

also i want to apply this idea to is_page im guessing itll be the same solution?

instead of this:
<?php } elseif ( is_page(array ('71', '73', '75', '77', '81', '61','83', '85', '87', '89', '91', '69', '93', '95', '97', '99', '67', '101'))) { ?>

these are all children i would just like to say apply this statement to all children (sub pages) of this page

..hope that makes sense!
