I got notified by my dashboard of the release.. but don’t know what the security issue was, if that is what you mean?

No probs.. let us know how it goes! ??

Hey have you tried selecting “summary” for the syndication feeds in the reading options of the wp dashboard? I’m not sure but this may generate the excerpt and not the full feed. (apologies if you have already tried this)

??

[Edit: I’ve just had a quick mess with my feed settings as I described above and it appears to work as you describe you want yours to! ?? Good Luck!]

I’ll try and explain what I have done… I can’t promise that I can solve the problem but here goes!

In my sidebar I have the following code:

‘<form name=”categoryform” id=”categoryform” action=””>
<select name=”menu” onchange=”MM_jumpMenu(‘parent’,this,0)”>
<option>select category</option>
<?php dropdown_cats_exclude(); ?>
</select>
</form>’

(which no doubt is what you have from this plugin too)

in my stylesheet the styling for this jump menu is done with:

‘.categoryform { margin:2px 0 0 0; }

.categoryform select {
border: 1px solid #cdc3c6;
padding: 1px;
font-size: 11px;
width: 165px;
}’

So I’ve basically told the menu how wide to be.

The other thing to consider is shortening your category names. Without seeing your site I don’t think I can suggest anything else and I don’t know if I have helped at all… but figured I would share! ??

Thanks ??

Hmm I don’t know quite what I did differently but I managed to get my blog to load everything in the wp-content folder now. keep your fingers crossed it plays nicely..

I can’t select any themes ?? none of them or my plugins appear on the appropriate screens..

(THANK YOU for responding!!)

Ok I guess no one can tell me. I’m guessing I should do a clean install and then upload the database I backed up this morning then? Before the MT import?

I have nearly 1000 entries and pages so I am really nervous about losing this data..

Thank you so much bob ?? it fixed everything! I’ve taught myself everything about css through customizing default templates for previous blog scripts I have used so sometimes I miss something that might seem obvious to others!

Hope it helps Leroy.. ?? If not I am sure there are wiser souls than me out there that can point you in the right direction ??

Yeah that is what I meant ?? what have you put under wordpress address and blog address in the general options?

Leroy, did you install the blog into it’s own directory? (eg:https://www.yoursite.com/wordpress) as if you didn’t then that may be what the problem is (sorry, trying to clarify)

I might be wrong, but I have had a look around the Kubrick theme in the past and I think that does something similar to what you are describing..?

Just to clarify, I’m not including the text output link description, as I just want my links to appear as a series of images.

Am I making sense? I apologise if I seem a bit backward, I do understand how to make xhtml and css valid BUT my knowledge of php is scant.

Thanks Michael ??
