Same problem here. Having Facebook Comments is great, but it’s completely disabled all previous comments made through the WordPress system. There’s got to be a way for them to coexist.
Thanks so much for the speedy reply. Worked like a charm! Funny, I’d never even seen the “user.css” file before — great override option.

In reply to: WP won’t let me post this articleI just had the same problem. It showed up on one site, and I did backflips trying to work around it. Nothing worked.
Then it popped up on two other sites — both with the same host — and I got to thinking it was a problem on the host’s end. One tech support call later, I found out I was right.
I don’t understand a lot of server speak, but for those who might find it useful, here’s the lingo from the fix ticket my agent submitted:
Call Issue Description: Having issue posting to WordPress sites. Need to submit ticket for SRX routing exclusion. Our Intrusion Detection Product looks for activity that could be considered malicious. Some remote updates/posts via a CMS can simulate a SQL injection attack (the product also looks for keywords that could be part of a query such as Select, From).

In reply to: Can't edit posts, WordPress hangs, diesFunny you should say that. About ten minutes after I posted that last message, I called my host, and indeed, it was a problem on their end. Thankfully, they’re great at customer service (CrystalTech, if anyone’s interested), and they put in a ticket to fix all the affected sites. I’m not a server guy, so I don’t understand all the lingo, but for what it’s worth, here’s how the ticket read:

Maybe that’ll help others who find themselves shut out like that.
Thanks, Esmi, for your help.

In reply to: Can't edit posts, WordPress hangs, diesI have sites on other servers, though they’re all with the same host.
This is REALLY weird, though — the same issue is starting to affect two other sites that have NEVER had this problem. I though it might’ve been in the upgrade to WordPress 3.0.1, so I rolled back, but that didn’t change anything.
In some cases, the problem seems to concern post length. I’ve tried adding this phrase to the config file, as per elsewhere in the forum:
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);
But that doesn’t seem to help.
In one case, though, I ran a very short post — maybe 50 words — but with two large-ish pics. That one gave me trouble, too. I took out one of the photos, and it saved just fine.
Ideas?

In reply to: Can't edit posts, WordPress hangs, diesUnfortunately, the db is really small — I’ve only run about 7 or 8 posts, and they’re all less than 1000 words.

In reply to: Can't edit posts, WordPress hangs, diesI haven’t, but I can create new posts, and I can edit existing ones — except on very weird, random occasions. If it were a bad DB, I’d think it would affect all my posts….
