In reply to: WordPress 3.0 – Assign Domain to PostIn:
.htaccess
Kind of like this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^noboartaint.org$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.noboartaint.org$
RewriteRule ^.*$ “http\:\/\/NoNAIS\.org\/2009\/04\/09\/big\-pharma\-taint\/” [R=301,L]Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WP3 Multi Blogs QuestionsUnfortunately they are making it so that it changes from http://sugarmtnfarm.com/blog to http://blog.sugarmtnfarm.com/ and I must host on their system. I have a lot of other stuff already on my established web hosted system. The html files are already stored on my server. But, the good news I suppose is they are pushing me to finally make the jump to WP with all my family’s blogs. Currently I have one on WP and the others are on blogspot. I just wish I had more time so the WP3 would be fully ready. Life is. Thanks for the help.

In reply to: WP3 Multi Blogs QuestionsThank you. I’ll play with the Alpha. I wish that Google were allowing a little more time so WP3 were ready. *sigh*

In reply to: WP3 Multi Blogs QuestionsThere’s one codebase, one database. If you want separate domains, you’ll need a plugin. you have one plugin directory, one theme directory – all blogs/sites see them all. (with exceptions – you can lock down theme selection.
Can you explain the plugin / directory / multiple domains issue further.
I have blogs at:
http://SugarMtnFarm.com/blog
http://NoNAIS.organd several on blogger.com / blogspot.com which I would love to administer all on WordPress 3.0 but each with its own domain name.
Maintaining my current google rankings and URLs is important.
Google’s blogspot.com is closing down FTP blogs May 1st so this is becoming somewhat of a pressing issue.
Many thanks,

In reply to: Spam? Read this.It is almost like people have stock in these. No, I’m not seriously suggesting that… SK2, BB and Akismet may be favorites but after installing them I found they were blocking a lot of my real readers in addition to possibly blocking spammers. False positives are not acceptable. Captchas and math have been more effective for me. I also don’t like the central server design.

In reply to: Comment Time Repost Limit?Could this time limit be added to the options? That would be helpful.

In reply to: Captcha plugin suddenly letting spam through…I’ve found Bad Behavior to be a real problem because it blocks many valid users. I finally stopped using it after getting more complaints than I had gotten spam before. Bad Behavior congratulates itself on doing so many kills but many were friendly fire. Bad Bad Behavior.
Challenge (math) works pretty well but chokes on decimals and spaces causing some users to get rejected.
did_you_pass_math seems to work fairly well and I’ve gotten no spam past it yet.

In reply to: Rin IE Alignment ErrorGlad to help. Now I just wish I could find the problem on some of my articles that pops up occasionally… Since I don’t have a Windows computer it is hard to nail.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Rin IE Alignment ErrorI have this same problem. It seems to be that when there is an object within a column that does not fit within the bounding of the column Windows Internet Explorer 6 in particular chokes and incorrectly displays the page putting the middle column down below the side columns. I usually find that a user left a link that was long. I encapsulate it in proper HTML with just the word link showing as the hyper-linked text and the problem usually goes away. Very annoying

In reply to: My wordpress doesn’t look right in Internet explorerI found that using Internet Explorer on a Mac fixes the problem. 🙂 Or just get the whole world to dump Explorer (or Microsoft) and go with FireFox or something – that seems like the better solution. 🙂
Seriously though, I’ve had lots of problems with Explorer, especially on Windows. It always seems it is because Microsoft doesn’t follow the standards. They also have PNG transparency messed up.
The most common problem is when people post long URL’s in comments. These break the bounding boxes for the post area shifting stuff around. Bad, Billy, Bad!
