Have you found anything? I need this exact thing as well.

I would left align the columns on the front page. The justified columns is giving you HUGE gaps between words. Other than that it looks really nice.

I would suggest working on the typography a bit more. It’s not bad but it could be better.

Some suggestions:

1. More hierarchy in the header
2. Tighten up individual posts (less space between paragraphs and other elements)
3. More space between individual posts.

I think the biggest thing you are lacking is hierarchy. With such a minimal design (and I love minimal design) you need to work a bit harder to structure your content without the big graphics.

Hey everybody,

Thanks for the feedback. No solutions yet it seems but here is link to a page on my site with comments at the bottom. I am meeting with my advisor tomorrow (i’m a student doing a WP independent study) so if he has any answers I’ll post them.

Thanks!

anyone?

I have two categories, 3 and 157. Some posts are only in 3 while others are in 3 and 157. On the landing page I am pulling all category 3 posts including those that also have category 157.

On another page I only want to pull posts that are exclusively in category 3 and not the ones that are also in category 157.

I tried to solve this with the following code:

query_posts(‘cat=3&cat-157’)

My thought was that I could pull only category 3 while specifically excluding category 157 and thus filter out the posts that are in both 3 and 157.

I hope this makes a bit more sense.

No luck with the @import changes.

This is the code form teh functions.php file that the error refers to starting at line 3596:

function get_file_data( $file, $default_headers, $context = '' ) {
	// We don't need to write to the file, so just open for reading.
	$fp = fopen( $file, 'r' );

	// Pull only the first 8kiB of the file in.
	$file_data = fread( $fp, 8192 );

	// PHP will close file handle, but we are good citizens.
	fclose( $fp );

I write all my code in Coda by hand. The only thing different I’m doing is using @import in my style.css to import a reset.css and a main.css as well as the css for a jquery plugin.

I’ll try removing the @import and see if that fixes anything…

My css file is present. I had not placed the meta information comments at top but doing so did not solve the problem.

I found this plugin authors comments regarding the same error under different circumstances.

A lot of you have commented and e-mailed me regarding an fopen PHP error that occurs during the usage of one of my plugins. The reason for this is because of your PHP configurations, editted by your web host. Your web host must have disabled URL file-access, which is the method I use to retrieve the plugin support link which is displayed on my plugins, which you have an option to enable/disable.

It took a while, but I’ve released an update to every plugin I’ve released. In this update, I no longer use the fopen command. I use cURL instead, which should solve the problem for the users which have this issue.

If this is a problem with my host (bluehost) do I need to worry about it?

Would this have had anything to do with my DB problems mentioned above?

Thanks for any help.

Thanks, works like a charm!
