    Yes, of course. I agree. But the data is in the ww.wp.xz.cn plugin database as shown at the plugin pages. If that data isn’t accurate and uptodate then what is the point of it? All I’m suggesting is that data also show up in a place where it is easy to find rather than a user having to search down that data for each and every plugin. Presentation.

    I think you may have miss-understood what I was suggestion. In the Extend-Plugins on ww.wp.xz.cn it has the info. For example GTranslate says:

    Requires WordPress Version: 2.3 or higher
    Compatible up to: 3.0.5
    Last Updated: 2010-12-3

    This information, perhaps in a more condensed form like:

    WP 2.3-3.0.5 2010-12-3

    could be on the Admin-Plugin screen next to the plugin so that a administrator of a WP install could quickly see the status of the plugins rather than having to hunt them all down. This is the sort of easy thing computers are good at doing. Looking up each plugin takes a lot of human time.

    Many thanks! I thought it must be in there somewhere but I wasn’t finding it. Not that it was a big bite of my time, I had debated not even posting this question, but it became a point of curiosity…

    And I love bacon too, as you might guess since I have 300 pigs. 🙂 🙂 🙂 Yes, for real! We raise pastured pigs. Some of the big breeders are 800 lbs or even a lot larger than that.

    I have been spot checking through my old posts (the vanished one was old) and have not found any other blank posts. If anyone knows of a way to “find all posts of length less than X characters” that would be most appreciated. That would find the if there are any other blanks.

    I’m behind by 0.01 (1%) on the version but this hasn’t happened for two months before that during which I’ve been running that version so I have a hard time believing that is an issue. I haven’t changed that.

    I haven’t been installing new plugins and the ones I have were documented as compatible and installed through WordPress.

    I’m using TwentyTen so that’s a reputable theme and it was installed with WordPress at the time of install so that is a reputable source.

    I do backup, praise the chron and my paranoia.

    Any other ideas?

    Any ideas on how to find all blank posts? I would like to look somehow to see if this has happened to any others.

    Thanks!

    I use redirects for doing things like #3. CPanel handles this as an interface or edit .htaccess directly.

    Hmm… I have mod_rewrite enabled so that isn’t it. This is all on the same server in a reseller WHM account using different CPanel accounts. Any other ideas before I ask the host? They are glacial to respond so I only want to submit one query a century. 🙂

    First of May. It will definitely be out then. 🙂

    Actually, I’ve been using the beta 2 since it came out and it seems pretty stable. Keep backups though.

    Drat. This problem just got worse. I renamed the second blog from ‘blog’ to ‘blog2’ ins the Super Admin. Going to http://flashweb.com still works fine except my custom header photo is missing (2010 theme). It had been fine before. I verified that it is in the appropriate directory. But it is worse. Now when I got to a post, such as

    http://flashweb.com/blog/2010/05/apple-blossoms/

    I get:

    Not Found
    The requested URL /blog/2010/05/apple-blossoms/ was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    and:

    http://flashweb.com/2010/05/apple-blossoms/

    gives the same result.

    If I change the Settings-Permalinks to the default (I had the year/month/post) so the links are like this:

    http://flashweb.com/?p=1500

    then it works except the header photo is still missing in action.

    I tried changing the name of that second errant ‘blog2’ back to ‘blog’ but that does not help.

    All plugins are deactivated.

    Ideas?

    Thank you, Ipstenu. That was it. I changed blog to blog2 to fix it too. My that has a nice ring to it. Poetry aside. This explains another problem I had had on another install. Thanks.

    Follow Andrea’s tutorial at:

    http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Create_A_Network

    The special coding is here:

    define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, true );

    That is in the code it gives you back if it doesn’t have direct access to modify your files. But it will ask you which you want and then give you that code to install in your wp-config.php so follow the directions. I have gotten it to work, sometimes. I screwed up some other things. Five out of seven installs worked for me. :}

    Yes. But the question is, which is better. I think I like the directories better. I am no expert on this topic. Thoughts and reasons one way or the other?

    Beware that I exported from WordPress and when I reimported I had lost a lot of my formatting. Specifically center and i which apparently the WP censorbody has dismissed since it is not part of the new HTML. A gotcha ouch. 🙁 It means my reimported blog looks very different than my old blog.

    Agreed. This needs to be made into a push button. I have now done six installs of WP3.0 for multi-user and not all of them have worked. It should take a couple of minutes and it has taken days. I keep very careful notes and follow them but it does not always work. Time for a button.

    I’m getting the same thing. I had previously done an install with WP3.0b1 and it worked fine. I just tried doing exactly the same install procedure (from careful notes) but on a different account using WP3.0b2 but when I create a second test blog under the WP MU Super User I get 404’s. Racking my brains against the screen here…
