In reply to: Children Links in NavigationAdd the exclude code to your current coding:
<?php $pages = wp_list_pages('exclude=17,38&title_li=0'); ?>
Just change and add the ID’s to suit your particular situation.

In reply to: Children Links in NavigationNo need to apologise – that’s why we have forums like this – to learn ??
what page do I put that in?
It will go into your header.php file and you should already see it in place – just change the bit between the brackets to include the relevant ID’s
('exclude=17,38' )

In reply to: Children Links in Navigation2. Just another WordPress weblog
can be changed via your Admin panel – Options. Second text box.
3. This will be code written into your theme in a file called footer.php – editable either using an offline text editor – which you change and save file and then upload via ftp
Or online via Presentataion – Theme editor – if you have permissions on those files which allow you to edit online.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Children Links in NavigationSomething like this should help:

In reply to: Restoring a backup – do you lose more recent posts?No not really. You have 2 backups.
The older one which I am assuming contains the bulk of your posts until a week ago?
A newer one which will only contain the last 7 days posts?
Whichever one you import back into your database, will be the one that is in place.
So, I would:
1. Manually copy the past 7 days post to a text files [with comments info]
2. Restore old backup
3. Copy/paste the last 7 days back into new posts [time stamped if necessary]
4. Make a new backup
The other option is to wait until some much more intelligent soul than me tells you how to add the posts/comments from the past 7 days via a database query.

In reply to: Restoring a backup – do you lose more recent posts?Restoring the backup will put back in place exactly what was in the backup at the time, so if you did it last week, it only has the content up until that time. Restoring it will override anything you now have in place. If you do not want to lose the last week of posts [depending on how many you have] perhaps save them to text files and repost. When finished – backup the whole lot so you have it all.
And there are NO ‘dumb’ questions ??

In reply to: WordPress Not Showing UpIf your installation did not include an index.php file, something has gone wrong somewhere.
I would delete all your current files and try your installation again with a fresh download of WP 2.3.1
Failing that, get in touch with Install4Free for some help.
