    Why has this not become a default functionality in WordPress? A simple checkbox somewhere, like, “Let registered (or logged in?) users see private posts” would be a godsend.

    I miss the old lightbox. I’ve just upgraded to WP2.1 and the latest LightboxJS, and I don’t have a close graphic. I can see the graphic I need sitting in /wp-content/plugins/lightbox/images, but it doesn’t seem to want to work.

    Prior to upgrading, I’d add an image to my post using the handy image button in the WYSIWYG window (where the heck did that button go?), and Lightbox would automatically recognize that code and do it’s thing, no manually adding rel=”lightbox”. Seems those days are gone, for now.

    I can close my lightboxed image by clicking in the lower right of the image once it pops, but there’s no visual cue. For example: http://nicheplayer.net/wordpress/?p=719

    I have private videos hosted on YouTube that I want to be able to display embedded on my blog. I’m using the wpvideo plugin, which works great. Thing is, *I* can play a private video in the blog, but when someone else tries it from another machine, the video image comes up, but it only says “loading…” when they click on the play button. I don’t suppose there’s a way around this?

    I managed to get AdSense displayed on my blog, but it’s not updating. At all.

    I have my adsense code just inside the <div id=”menu”> on my index.php, which must be wrong. Though I’m at a loss to explain why the ads that are displaying are clearly tied to one of the posts on the blog…. It must have worked at least once.

    Per another thread here, I copied and pasted the text of my wordpress.sql file (using TextWrangler in OS X) into the SQL window in phpmyadmin and was able to restore my database that way. When I did so, though, I deleted this portion of the text:

    — phpMyAdmin SQL Dump
    — version 2.6.0-pl3
    http://www.phpmyadmin.net

    — Host: palmberg.homeunix.net
    — Generation Time: May 02, 2005 at 05:08 PM
    — Server version: 4.0.23
    — PHP Version: 5.0.2

    — Database: wordpress

    — ——————————————————–

    — Table structure for table wp_categories

    And everything appears to have worked fine.

    Here’s more of the error text from the error window:

    — Table structure for table wp_categories

    Actually, the error text that appears in my post above is all there was…?

    So, if I read your reply correctly, all I need to do is get my wordpress database imported back into MySQL (changing the “home” and “site_url” values in the option table), copy my WP files from the original install into my preferred subdirectory in Web root, then hit http://nicheplayer.net/wordpress and see what it looks like?

    Thank you for your reply!
