In reply to: [Comments - wpDiscuz] Is it possible to turn off CSS entirely?I’m sorry to hear that; it seems to be a good plugin otherwise. I don’t understand why developers insist on styling their output rather than making it an option.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Blank screen during installationWell, I think I know what the problem was…not WHY it was a problem, though. I attempted to save down-time on the site by uploading everything — themes, plugins, etc. — before going through the installation. Something about that was stopping WordPress in its tracks. I deleted everything and started over with a fresh install, without uploading my custom theme or any plugins besides the default two, and the installation came off without a hitch.

In reply to: [Fast Secure Contact Form] Submit causes Error 404Actually, I solved the problem. I still don’t know why it happened, but it doesn’t happen anymore.
This whole thing started because the default fields display with a colon after the label, and I didn’t want one; so I disabled the default fields and set up duplicates with the labels I wanted. Pointless, I know now, because you can simply rewrite the labels, but I didn’t know that then.
With the default fields activated, the form works flawlessly. Without them, it gives that weird 404 error. I solved that by setting a redirect to a thank you page and setting the time to 0, so the 404 never showed, but it was still trying to execute that way. When I went back to the default name and email fields, and simply rewrote the labels, the form works perfectly.

In reply to: Getting 404s for my custom post typeWell, that was easy. Any idea of why that worked?
As for getting the article to show up on the home page, it was a matter of making a custom loop
<?php query_posts(array( 'post_type' => 'article', 'showposts' => 1, 'category_name' => 'featured-article' ) ); if( have_posts() ):?>Not being a programmer, I don’t know if this is the “proper” or the most elegant way of doing it, but it works.

In reply to: Comment editor using wp_editor won't submitIn the form, I replaced this:
<textarea name="comment" id="comment" rows="10" cols="" class="textbox"></textarea>…with this:
<?php wp_editor( $listing->post_content, 'listingeditor', $settings = array('textarea_name' => post_content, 'textarea_rows' => 8) ); ?>That displays the TinyMCE editor, and it works while typing but it won’t submit.
