Forum: Developing with WordPress
In reply to: Changing category count in widgetshucks thanks bc. i didn’t swear i was going to write custom code…just considering it. but benefit of the doubt is better than saying, ‘how dare u post this you noob!’
and i just realized there was a typo above and i meant to say, hard-core developer, not hard-code dev. in some circles, that alone would get sent to banished beginner forum for life. #hardcoreforlife 😉Forum: Developing with WordPress
In reply to: Changing category count in widgetThanks t-p! I think I glanced at this in an original search but probably shied away b/c it either offers the dropdown solution which is not what I want OR, go ahead, make yourself a custom widget. This is the good & bad thing about WP…so many options but there’s a widget for everything. Let’s see what else comes up here on the forum or maybe I’ll hack out a widget for myself when I’m not darning my socks or sumpin. 🙂

In reply to: Weird stray code appearing in admin screenhmm…maybe the reason i didn’t get any response was b/c the images i posted didn’t make any sense:

In reply to: Weird stray code appearing in admin screenbtw, i’m running MAMP for the local server; don’t think this could be a product of that as nothing’s changed in that code base

In reply to: Editing code on iPadOkay Mika, Michael Mariart above said:
program your own plugin that can list the files, read them in, allow you to edit them, then save them again. This is one of the few times that I’ll say that it’s actually easier then it sounds.
so maybe i hack at it in whatever spare time i have, you and michael guide me whatever plug-in writing support you can offer, and we make millions (thousands? hundreds? a few shekels?) selling it but more likely giving it away?
well, that is unless someone wants to start hacking since i dunno what the $(@# i’m doing. 😉

In reply to: Editing code on iPadOdal,
From cPanel’s Code Editor, can you get to edit the WP files as in Dashboard?? My host has cPanel too. But I see your point: it’s a editor inside a browser inside of cPanel inside of a … well u get the idea. 😉

In reply to: Editing code on iPadmay have to check it out…thanks chris & mika.
forgot to thank @michael.m — that may be easier than it sounds to you, but my ears hear tougher, not having written a plugin or nothin.

In reply to: Editing code on iPadHmm…have to look into that. Although not being familiar with it, I thought maybe you were joking.
Can you do what I was talking about in Coda: Access what would otherwise be presented but not editable in Dashboard on iOS and edit away? Or is it just a really nifty coding app. (not that there’s anything wrong w/dat.) 🙂
thanks mika!

In reply to: Editing code on iPadthanks Christine, but none of those apps will do.
what is needed is either some way to present the PHP or CSS code in text fields in a browser (or in the WordPress for iOS) so that the code could be selected and edited. i’m not talking about just editing source, which some of these apps do, but the files within the WP admin dashboard. that requires some other magic methinks.

In reply to: moving WP from nested directory to root & something stupidoh kay! we are back in business. i swear i read that page 27 times, but i re-read it and knew what to do. my question remains:
Site is currently at http://thecatsquad.com/test/
Would like to move it to http://thecatsquad.com/Do I…
– go through the “When Your Domain Name or URLs Change on this page:
http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Moving_WordPress and use the Search and Replace tool?
OR
– follow the sequence here: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory
Reason I ask this is b/c not only do I want to have WP be the CMS for my entire site from the root, but I want to nest a blog somewhere off the home page (http://thecatsquad.com/blog/Hope that makes sense!

Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Do I really need to run WP locally (using MAMP?)I can imagine it would help. I’m just having enough trouble with the code and everything else, for the moment, no local server is the least of my worries.
Thanks esmi!

In reply to: Making wordpress my entire domainWow…I think you understood me perfectly. Thanks! I wish everybody else understood me like you do. 🙂
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Making wordpress my entire domainIn revisiting this idea…I’m thinking of something a little different. I would like to have a home page, presented in the WordPress environment, but then have links to blogs and various other content within that home page. The actual home page wouldn’t be presented as a blog explicitly. But linking off that would be a link to a the blog, and lots of other content. I sorta wanna use it like a very simple content mgmt system.
Or another way to look at it, is it’s like inverting the idea of a blog and the blog’s about page. Where usually, you go to a home page for a blog and it’s the blog and the entires, etc. and then there’s a link to an “About” page for the blog, the blogger, etc. This would sort of be the reverse. The home page would be more like “About” (the site, the blogger, whatever) and then a link to the blog.
Hope that makes sense. It seems like it should work, assuming you can have a blog nested under another blog.
Thanks in advance all!
