In reply to: [Plugin: Maintenance Mode] MM 5.1 won’t installI’m getting the same error. Installed okay with the “download, unzip, upload” process.
However, I’m getting a conflict with the Role Scoper plugin when I try to go to the settings page, so can’t tell you (yet) if it’s actually working.

In reply to: [Plugin: Contact Form 7] Generating invalid HTMLSorry — it looks as if something else is going on.
I’d still rather not have the “<p>”s inserted, I guess, but it does appear that they are closed correctly within the form and I understand why it makes sense to have them as the default.

In reply to: [plugin Contact Form 7] styling text areasIf you “view source” on the generated page, you’ll see HTML “input” tags.
In your site, there are the lines:
<input type="text" name="your-subject" value="" class="wpcf7-validates-as-required" size="33" maxlength="100" /> <textarea name="your-message" cols="29" rows="10"></textarea>The first is generated using the 33/100. The second with the 29×10.
Is that what you were asking?

In reply to: Display posts on a pageYou may have changed something since posting, but it looks as if you’re using a tag-based classification scheme, rather than one based on categories.
On the other hand, the link
http://deepbluetrees.com/category/images
does now look like it’s working.Finally, WordPress doesn’t have a good way to assign categories to pages — just to posts. Is that what you were asking?
Is this resolved?

In reply to: How do I reorder my comments?In WordPress 2.9.1, if you go to the Admin screen for Settings > Discussion Settings (wp-admin/options-discussion.php) there’s an option to show the comments with the newer first (instead of the default older first).

In reply to: My website is dissapeared, all in whiteAre there any clues in the server logs — the error log, in particular? Sorry if I’m off base in asking, but every time my site has looked like that, it’s been a PHP error.

In reply to: Change order of pages in menuFor others who might find this thread, each Page has an “order” parameter that can be set in the Edit or Quick Edit screen. Simply “order” the pages from lowest to highest using some convenient scheme (say 1,2,3,4 if things are fixed or 10,20,30… to allow for inserting pages later).
In the wp_list_pages mentioned above, this “order” maps to “menu_order” (which is the default, followed by alphabetical by post title), so a theme using the defaults here should show you the Pages in the order that you want.

In reply to: File access only for logged usersI think the Role Scoperr plugin, http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/role-scoper/, is supposed to provide this functionality. However, I’m having trouble with it. If you get it working, please post!

In reply to: Restricting access to files as well as posts/pagesIt’s possible that role-scoper will do what I want. See this thread:

In reply to: WordPress -> Facebook, Multi-author blogI pull things from WordPress into Facebook using the Facebook Notes application — no plugins or changes to WordPress needed. It’s been working like a champ for months to pull posts from several blogs — some where I’m the only author and some where I’m one of many.
In Facebook –
- Click the notes application icon in the lower left (or click on Applications and select “Notes” from that list)
- Click on “My Notes”
- In the “Notes Settings” box over on the right, click on “Import a blog”
-
In the text box, enter the RSS feed that’s associated with just your posts:
http://the-site-address/author/your-username/feed
and click the “Start Importing” button
If you post to more than one blog, you can use Yahoo pipes to combine all the feeds into one RSS feed that you can then give to Facebook as your “import this blog” address.

In reply to: Display posts on a pageI’m not sure what you’re asking, but I’ve made three guesses.
1. Show the category(ies) associated with a particular post — for example just below the title?
Inside the loop, the template tag the_category will do that for you.2. Show all the posts in a particular category on on page of your site?
While it doesn’t appear anywhere in the list of WordPress “pages”, the address http://yoursite/category/your-category-name will show the posts in that category. The exact layout of the page in the browser will depend on which theme file is used to display the category. See the Template Hierarchy for a discussion of whether index.php, archive.php, category.php or a more specific file from the theme will be used.3. Show all the posts in a particular category on one specific WordPress page
While you can create a custom page template to do this, it’s likely that you can get by with a category page as described in #2. The question then may be how to put such a page into your site navigation (since normally it is the WordPress pages that go there). If that’s what you’re wondering, please ask again because it can be done. Giving a link to which theme you are using may help people be more specific in answering this.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Preview and Front Page Edit problemsThere’s not enough information to help you with the first question, but please do review “Giving WordPress Its Own Directory“. Is it possible you didn’t fully undo the steps that you tried there.
It’s usually not a good idea to put two questions in one post — but have you checked what things look like when you are logged out of WordPress? Often that edit link is implemented with the edit_post_link template tag — which doesn’t display anything unless the viewer is logged in and has permission to edit that particular post. If you really don’t want that showing up for any of the users, then look for that template tag in the corresponding theme file and remove it or comment it out. For instance, your index.php may have a line that looks like:
<?php edit_post_link('Edit','',' | '); ?>Either remove that (or if you think you might want to put it back) change it to:
<?php /* edit_post_link('Edit','',' | '); */?>A link to your installation might provide additional clues for both problems.
