In reply to: Turning off the auto savePLEASE WOULD SOMEONE AT WORDPRESS ANSWER THIS?
This feature sucks and I really want to turn it off. All it does is create duplicate posts.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Will not post after auto saveyes, I am seeing that, too. Mine causes the post to be added again, so creating duplicate posts (the post plug is different). I am seeing issues with adding custom fields, too… and sometimes, a published post is set to private.
I am not doing that, wp is. and it all relates to this new “are you sure” page.
How can someone turn OFF auto save?

In reply to: WordPress with Yahoo, Should I move Hosts?There are plenty of cheap hosts that offer 1-click installs of WordPress and make things extremely easy to do…
I use midphase.com and anhosting.com (same company)… they have 24/7 phone support, which is much better than dreamhost.com, who make you pay for phone support and even then take a day to call you back (you can’t call them).
For $6.95 per month, you can host at anhosting.com… with huge disk space and TBs of bandwidth. […]

In reply to: add class to wp_list_cats?well, it would have to be <li class=”menuitem”> to be valid. Did you try adding the quotes?

In reply to: WYSIWYG editor messing up div tags in 2.1yeah, turn it off. nice um, “feature”… an editor that makes invalid markup of your valid markup. How original.

In reply to: Post editor inserts paragraph tagit will even delete div tags and put in unterminated paragraph tags.. frankly, the new editor sucks.
Turn it off in your user profile page.

In reply to: add class to wp_list_cats?put that function call inside a div with an id or class assigned. Then, in your css, you can target the list items or list inside that id or class, as in
my markup:
<div id="menuitems"><?php wp_list_cats('child_of=25','<li>','</li>'); ?></div>my css:
#menuitems ul {…}
#menuitems ul li {…}does that work for you? You don’t have to apply class to each li tag… just create a wrapper that identifies that particular list to apply styles.

In reply to: WTF? divs are getting hosed by wp2.1 code windowI don’t know how to post the bug there. It IS reproducible time after time. Have you TRIED it?
THAt said, I just unchecked that box and … thank you jesus… the editor is back to normal.
AND the post window lines function is working (another option).
New features should be thoroughly tested before unleashing on the unsuspecting public.

In reply to: WTF? divs are getting hosed by wp2.1 code windowI didn’t log it there or anywhere. I am just surprised to see that major hosting companies are using this version (no choice) and that no one seems to be worried about it.
I know my markup and I can SEE this corruption occurring every time.

In reply to: WTF? divs are getting hosed by wp2.1 code windowit may be FREE software, but it is still software that should be tested before making public! Did no one think to see how divs and paragraphs were being altered in that nifty new code window for pages (and posts)??
basic beta testing would have been *A GOOD THING*

<p class=”two-col”><!–LEFT COLUMN–>

it pretty much is stripping out the ending </p> tags and changing <div> to <p> AND removing the ending tags (for the div and not replacing with ending p tag!)
THAT’S JUST WRONG and whomever made this new “feature” really had his/her head up their ass.
I can’t believe my hosting company forced me to use this version!

In reply to: WordPress 2.1 always format my codeI am finding that the code editor for posts is changing divs to p tags! WTF? Even if I paste the correct stuff back in, any edit to the page/post causes this freaking corruption again…
what the hell is that all about?

In reply to: Using the same database of another blogwell, I’d still like to know how to do this… because nothing above explains the differences between what I read and see in tutorials for moving the db of a wp install to another wp install…
When I go to pma, the SQL screen shows the first part (where you can copy and paste the content in the sql, assuming you’ve figured out a way to open the db backup and not see garbage…
but the bottom part, where you browse to a file, isn’t displayed… I see something similar in a tab named IMPORT (so not in SQL) but when I browse to the file (which downloaded from updater as a .gz file) and click go, it always comes back with a lengthy error…
Granted, the imported wp db was in v2.0.4 and the new wp install is 2.0.5
How to do this? The tutorials don’t match what I see…
using: phpMyAdmin v2.9.0.2 with MySQL client version 4.1.10basic steps is what I need. Here’s what I’ve done, so far:
1) backed up db and files for install#1, installed on install1.clientsdomain.com
2) created subdomain install2.mydomain.com
3) installed WP, v2.0.5 (no other option)Now I want to move the saved db from install#1 to the new wp db at install#2… I know how to move the files (theme, others…) via FTP, but getting the db data and matching up the logins, pwords, etc is what I’m missing – or, my version of the db admin doesn’t match the tutorial’s
TIA
Caseyis anyone else seeing this?
