Weird. It usually does it for me. Anyway, I tried it out, and it seems to be working fine. Sorry for a waste of a thread.

Hi Moshu,

I’m aware of that. However, even my own comment-replies (which do have a URL) are not displayed as links.

Hi there,

You’ve deleted the meta tag that indicates what version of WP you’re using, but if you upgrade to the latest version the feature you want is built in. See https://www.fictionfelicis.com/fiction and click any authors name. That’s automatic – I didn’t do anything.

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h2 class="articleTitle"><a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php the_content(''); ?>
/* The other stuff you wanted */
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
/* Something here if no posts found */
<?php endif; ?>

That should work.

<div class="articleTitle">" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</div>

should be

<div class="articleTitle" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</div>

I don’t know if that’s the problem with your site, but it’s a problem nonetheless.

Hi Marc ??

I think I have a pretty good idea of what ‘trendy’ is – but perhaps no better than you or anyone else. “It won’t be next week.”? Interesting! What have you heard?

Boing, your nav doesn’t need Javascript. Turn off style, and you’ll notice the nav is at the very bottom of the page. It should be nearer to the top for usability.

Your header image is still displayed. If I turn off style (a.k.a. “presentation”), I shouldn’t see your presentational header… but I do… because you have the image in the HTML instead of the CSS. The H1 exists for the purpose of displaying the most fundamental header information. That is your page title.

It’s not bad looking – pretty trendy with the colors, too. I think you’ll get a great response.

I think the javascript nav is unnecessary and really kills the goal of semantic and usable markup. It’s pushing your nav list to the bottom of the page, too.

The header image is presentational content. I think you should be displaying a standard h1 at the top of the page instead.

And the copyright is very conspicuous in the bottom left corner, since your page is center-aligned.

But like I said, it’s a very trendy design and I think your visitors will be very happy.

I agree with boing. Unless you have a great reason to redirect them to the home page, it’s contrary to usability to not give them a 404 page. Tell them some possible causes of the error, some advice on how to resolve the issue, and provide a search box – perhaps filled in with the tail of their requested path.

Remove the inlcude for the header from your error page template file. Then stick this where that was:

<?php header("Location: https://www.yourblogindex.com/");
exit;
?>

Be careful when editing, but the files you’re looking for are /wp-admin/edit-form.php and /wp-admin/edit-form-advanced.php.

Just look for the text of the buttons. If you have other questions, well… you know where to ask ??

When viewing a post, there would never be a situation where neither a preview post nor a future post would be displayed.

The page you linked to with the bad example is a category page, which has no need for a post-to-post navigation. Just remove the navigation HTML from the archives/categories template file.

You don’t need the category id. https://www.davidarussell.co.uk/category/blogging/feed is the URI for your RSS feed for the category.

Just put this somewhere in your template file for archives/categories:

<a href="feed/" title="This Category's RSS Feed">Subscribe to RSS Feed</a>

That should work – does for me.

Thanks podz, I’m looking into that now. I’ll post my findings.

Do you know anyone who could help me with this, podz?
