Duh, I neglected to remove the default seperator ie wp_title(”) instead of wp_title()

:/

I ended up using a plugin (TinyMCE Advanced) that stops the majority of <p>
tags being added when switching between html and visual modes

The issue has been resolved.

The upgrade of WordPress went and changed my custom post type of ‘For_Sale’ to ‘for_sale’. Any of the existing posts with the post_type of For_Sale then became unavailable to edit or view (though would still list in the admin gui and still could be queried).

Creating a new post would set Post_Type to for_sale and would be able to be edited/viewed/etc.

I ran an SQL query to change the case to all lower case on the affected posts, which has fixed the problem.

Checked https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-31-master-list, nothing there has changed anything

Setup a new copy of the site on a fresh install of WordPress. Problem followed – I suspect the issue is within the SQL DB.

Ah, I didnt even notice that – thank you for pointing it out.

Glad the feature is being copied over

You need the data stored in the SQL database, the files themselves wont contain the data you need.

Found this:

(query_posts cannot exclude taxonomies that aren’t built-in taxonomies, it’s simply beyond the “current scope” of that function).

So it looks like its not possible with query_posts

Thank you esmi

Edit: Esme beat me to it

Looks like you need to modify this in style.ccs:

#head{ /*head area, which contains main menu and logo*/
z-index: 100;
position:relative;
}

Try adding height:100px; (replace 100 with the height of your image)?

The ccs on that site is rather extensive (for me anyway), so it may require more tweaking.

#wrap {
background: transparent url(img/light6.jpg);
padding:20px 0;
background-repeat:repeat-x;
}

I switched over to the other javascript example on the wp_dropdown_categories page and it works fine.

<?php wp_dropdown_categories('show_option_none=Select category&show_count=1&orderby=name&child_of=5'); ?>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
    var dropdown = document.getElementById("cat");
    function onCatChange() {
		if ( dropdown.options[dropdown.selectedIndex].value > 0 ) {
			location.href = "<?php echo get_option('home');
?>/?page_id=22&cat="+dropdown.options[dropdown.selectedIndex].value;
		}
    }
    dropdown.onchange = onCatChange;
--></script>

Not to worry – that side of the code works, albeit only if you manually type the address in (?page_id=Y&cat=X).

The issue is the form code taking the user to the main page, rather than the page the dropdown is on. More of an html issue than wordpress I’m guessing.

This page is using a template to list posts with a specific category. On said page is the dropdown that lists the children of the specific category – the intention being you can use the drop down to filter the results shown on the page.

I’m certain I’ve worked around it before, but for the life of me cannot remember how I did it.

errant code in the post was causing it ??
