i’ll check those out. Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply!

The .htaccess is writable.

moshu — thanks for the tip. However i did that in another version of the template with no luck. doing so just lists the date then nothing else. the_title(); just returns “newsroom” not the title of the post (returns the title of the page).

I am going to try and hack a version of wp_get_archives(); so see if that is the best way to go about this. I can’t seem to get things to loop right. super frustrating I tell ya.

omanno – thank you for the help.

There has to be something really simple that I am not grasping here because when I edit a copy of the “archive.php” (named archive-news.php) and select it as the template page I can’t get more than the date and page title displayed — not the info from the posts in the system (all newsroom items).

I have a category called “news” setup as well as an archive page called “newsroom”. If I go to “website.com/content/news/” the category listing shows perfectly but only shows one post at a time. No biggie. When I try “website.com/content/newsroom/” (the page setup in WP with the archive-news template page) I am unable to get the info to display.

My “archives-new.php” file contains:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Archives - News
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<h1><span class="blue">New Day Trust</span> Newsroom</h1>

<div class="contentListing">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_time('Y.m.d'); ?></a> -- <?php the_title(); ?> -- <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Avenir — Thank you for your quick reply. I is much appreciated!

Did you want me to add that code to the “page.php” in “/WP/themes/theme/page.php? Or place the code in a new “Page” within WordPress?

I have a few other pages in the system so I am hesitant to edit “page.php”. I did place the code into the new page I created (via WP) and was not able to get any output.

Thanks for the tip about seraching google and using the cache.

The file upload is really nice. The code display just seems to be lacking (for those who don’t know HTML). It would be almost perfect it if provided the thumbnail (if the option to generate one was chosen during upload) as the default image in the image tag generated. Also the complete code to display the thumb with a link to the original image would be nice.

A built-in file broswer where a user can select a file in the list and provide the code snippet for copying/pasting in the entry would be a godsend in this situation.

Don’t get me wrong WP is great, especially for a free easy to install and use light CMS/Blog tool. I am digging the new version and can’t wait to get my hands on the docs so I can get rolling with it.

Thanks for the quick reply! Even though that is what i did not want to hear ??

WP is great and I was really hoping to use it for a “friends-only” type site. I will see if I can hack away at it and get it to work. If not I will look into something else. If anyone has any other ideas I am all ears…
