MichaelH,

Any ideas on how to show categories by archives? I’m on the hunt to find a way to show only categories in a given archive that have any posts.

Found the problem which as well could be a small bug that I hope was addressed with 2.7. Seems the action filter ‘posts_where’ is used both with posts and images being called for both. To fix the problem, for now, created a global var counter and have the function below work only at the value of 0.

function archive_where( $where ) {
global $arcWhere;
if (is_category()) {
$_SESSION[‘SavedWhere’] = $where;
$varWhere = $_SESSION[‘ArchiveYear’];
if ( intval($varWhere) <> 0 && intval($arcWhere) == 0 ) {
$where .= ” AND YEAR(wp_posts.post_date)=’$varWhere'”;
}
}
$arcWhere++;
return $where;

what’s the url of your site??

yes, this happens a lot. what I do to get around this problem is to change to html view at the end and add your code. Then save the post from there. Else if you go back to the Visual editor, it will be so very nice to auto format for you taking out all the code you just added.

Again, not putting you down or anything…it would be best to use a theme that you like and then work with it to change it to your likings. This way you can learn what others did with their theme and php and all.

It would be best to use a theme that you can work with. Use one that’s close to what you want so you can learn all about HTML/PHP/CSS. If you don’t.. then a great source to learn all this would be:

Google

Yes, with the use of this plugin:

Redirection

Second, why are there no categories of any kind possible with the new Media library? I’d like to be able to segregate my images according to their intended usage.

Have you ran into any problems with your upgrade and images? With my latest project hitting 6,456 images (main images) and not seeing an end in sight, I hope that there will not be any problems with the upgrade. Also I would have loved to have image categories as well instead of having to use the image name being used as the category name.

Also, did they add the option to search by file name?

url??

Thanks for your comment. At the end I know there is going to be some massive category cleanup. I hope that I can reduce the 105 category count, but as I go along, I just may need a bit more…

Right now, the category list is a static placeholder until I figure out how to get something more manageable without using a lot of CPU to process each page.

Do you like how I have placed the categories??

Thanks for the feed back!

I would really like to hear all the dislikes about the site and/or problems you found.

janeforshort,

I hear you all the way. I need to first get my hand on what you are doing with the Media Library and any database management that is being used. What I’m asking for is one simple modification of an SQL statement to add an AND operator. Right now you have it only searching the title field and not the filename field.

I guess you could call it a bug. You have OpenOffice and you need to find a document. But OpenOffice only supports searching for files by document titles and not filename. See a problem here??

janeforshort,

As many people ask for many things to a point were it gets to be an overload, there is just one small item I would like added which shouldn’t take all that much coding and would help many who use images day to day. This would be to expand the searching of images by filename. It would be a great help to be able to search by file name and not just custom media name.

I can’t help you, but maybe you can help me. What did you use to cycle through the images in the gallery??

It’s good to hear!! I am in need of some type of management with the 4,500+ images I have uploaded.
