In reply to: 404 errors due to a subscription serviceI haven’t seen anything like that in mine. Can you download your raw access logs? You should be able to search through those for the IP address and user-agent of the person who made the requests.

In reply to: is there a better way to make photo captions?You should probably be using
class="captionalignright"
rather thanid="captionalignright"
, for one thing. ID selectors are supposed to define unique elements, but the same class can appear multiple times per page.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: add author’s name into title tag in header.phpI’ve found it much less frustrating to ignore the title() function, instead of trying to fix it; it’s not tremendously flexible. You could try something like:
<title>
<?php if (is_single() ) {
placeholder_author_function; echo ": "; single_post_title(); echo "»"; bloginfo('name');
} else { wp_title(,true); }
?>
</title>… and add in additional is_* functions for any other cases where you’re dissatisfied with the default title. (This is how I’ve done mine.)
However, I’m not sure how to get at the identity of the post’s author outside the Loop.

In reply to: two lines of text in headerYou should be able to use the max-width property for whatever element contains your title. It’s not perfectly supported by all browsers though.
Or you could just edit your theme’s header.php file directly, and just type in your title with
<br/>
tags as appropriate. It’s not as elegant as using bloginfo(), but it sure works.Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: PHP Mysql on Mac OS X?I’ve also been thinking about this, but haven’t tried yet – however, there are a couple of guides to setting up WordPress on OS X that I have bookmarked, which might be useful:

In reply to: Font on BlogInstead of having 2 unordered lists within your “details” section, try just having one, with list items for both the image and the text. If that doesn’t work, style the image with

In reply to: Font on BlogIncrease the right padding of your sidebar, or of your lists and list items.
I would also recommend shrinking the font a little, or widening the sidebar so you can fit more characters per line in your description – but that’s purely a matter of personal preference ??

In reply to: Font on BlogOn perusal of your CSS: Yup. You undo the text transform for
#left ul ul li
; without the extra list item tags, the things in all caps are governed by#left ul ul

In reply to: Font on BlogThe stuff in your “podcast” and “details” lists need to be marked up as list items within the unordered list – i.e.:
[li id="podcast"]
[ul]
[li]Audio Bits[/li]
[/ul]
[/li]
Dunno how you’ve set up your CSS but it looks like an inheritance problem.Forum: Plugins

In reply to: Please check something for meJust FYI, I’m running Firefox on a Mac with Adblock configured to block all AdSense ads – everything is fine. But I can duplicate the glitch by turning off Adblock and reloading your page. So, yeah, it’s the Google ads. Not that I have any idea what they’re doing to cause this…
Does your autopost software have a place to enter a username/password for your blog? Can you successfully log in and post from the WP web interface?
