In reply to: Schedule a post to be published at a future date: Does not workUpdate:
I installed a test blog using 2.2.1 in a separate directory on the same host, timestamp doesn’t work.
I installed another test blog in another test directory on the same host using version 2.0.3 and the timestamp DOES work.
Any ideas what changed and what I can do to fix it (or get my host to tweak)?
Edit Update:
Just tested 2.1.3 and it does not work, so it’s something between 2.0 and 2.1 that changed and it’s affecting some of us for some reason.

In reply to: Schedule a post to be published at a future date: Does not workjonlandrum did it work for you before on the same host?
I was wondering since it worked perfectly fine on my old host (version 2.2) and didn’t have a problem until I moved to the new host (same version 2.2–but fresh install), if it’s something to do with the server I’m on?
Edit: typo

In reply to: Schedule a post to be published at a future date: Does not workA few days ago I moved to a new host, used a fresh wp-install, uploaded my blog database and now the timestamp is not working for me. Future posts are not being published.
The problem is just like mentioned above: you can see the future post in the dashboard ready to be published in 20 minutes (example). When that time comes, it doesn’t get posted and the dashboard now displays the amount of time since the scheduled time (say the post was to be published 10 minutes ago, the dashboard time display shows “10 minutes”).
I tried hitting the wp-cron.php directly and I get a blank white page–post is not published.
It’s a busy blog and I can’t do that database brute force thing, my host will kill me I’m sure ;).
What can I do to fix this and get the timestamp feature going again?
I also upgraded to 2.2.1 tonight–timestamp still no-worky for me.
To solve this in my “home” server i set up bind9 and set it to answer to the internal requests of my domain with 127.0.0.1. Now it work like a charm.
What do we do for blogs hosted elsewhere?
Edit: sorry, fixed the cron file mention (ack–twice lol)

In reply to: Post Count With a Twist – Help Please :)Ok I did something a little different on my end, but I still need help with one little thing :).
I changed the categories so that they all fall under a certain parent category. This helped achieve a few things I was looking to do. But here’s what I need help with in regards to post count:
Parent Category (500)
Child Category #1 (220)
Child Category #2 (260)
Child Category #3 (100)The parent category count is perfect, it only counts a post once even if it’s in 2 or 3 different child categories. What I’m wanting to do is take the Parent Category count (500) and place it elsewhere on the sidebar.
What is the code I can use to grab that number (500)? I’d prefer it to show without brackets as well, I just want the number displayed, nothing else. I did try a plugin that shows the count for one category, but it just gave me a ‘0’ since the posts are all actually filed under child categories and not the parent. (plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/10321?replies=16)
Does anyone know? TIA if it’s possible :).

In reply to: get_links in WP 2.1?Sainty try this, it worked for me:
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>
If you need to adjust the variables, see if the same ones from the get_links work:

In reply to: New Page template and new CSS in existing themeQuick note to say I’ve been feverishly working on this myself (different page backgrounds for certain pages) and KatGirl is right on the money, this works fantastic.
However, for some oddball reason I had a problem getting the different css file to load on older versions of IE. The solution for me:
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”/wp-content/themes/yourthemefolder/yourdifferent.css” type=”text/css” media=”screen” />
Try changing the css call in the page template header to that if you’re experiencing probs too.

In reply to: I don’t know what to call it – fake url’s?Yes talk to your host craiger9er, I can’t duplicate your google results for your domain, but I did a search for: hacso.net.html
https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=com.microsoft%3Aen-us&as_qdr=all&q=hacso.net.html
Yahoo shows more:
https://search.yahoo.com/search?p=hacso.net.html&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&vc=&fp_ip=CA
It looks to be some sort of hacker/cracker stuff. Are you *sure* there’s nothing suspicious in any of your folders? I’d guess there’s something on your server.
You definitely have a problem IMO.

In reply to: Do comment links help boost or syphon away pagerank?Netdetective I don’t think the nofollow depends on themes, it’s built into wordpress itself.
rel=’external nofollow’
rel=”nofollow”More info from google:

In reply to: Do comment links help boost or syphon away pagerank?“Does Google completely ignore such a link, or figure in points towards ranking based on relevancy of the links?”
I think google probably follows the link, but doesn’t give it any sort of ‘vote value’ from your blog. This helps protect your blog from ‘voting’ for spammy or bad neighborhood sites that show up in your comments.

In reply to: Do comment links help boost or syphon away pagerank?Having outbound links on your blog helps (targeted), but having them specifically in your comments posts doesn’t give more seo power. My opinion of course, no scientific data at my finger tips ;).
