Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Remember Me doesn’t remember meMaybe this is an “old theme vs. new theme” issue.
I *did* create a ‘hotbutton’ that got me to the editor faster, but notice that it only remembered my login when I used an ‘admin’ login, or “yoursite.com/wp-admin/” instead of “yoursite.com/wp-login.php”.
By switching the link from /wp-login.php (the file) to /wp-admin/ (the directory), now everything seems to work. Can anyone back this up with official documentation or anything?

In reply to: Remember Me doesn’t remember meIs it possible that WordPress 2.0 stores cookies differently than previous versions (which clearing cookies should fix) or isn’t looking in the right place for that cookie?

In reply to: All-new WP1.5 powered MovieCrypt.comWhat effect would removing the rel=”bookmark” and title have on the RSS feed or anything else? And that code line doesn’t even have link to the full article archive.

In reply to: Making Money With WordPress BlogI’ll chime in on this; text ads or targeted ads aren’t a bad thing. Like Google’s text ads, when they’re integrated into a sites design (instead of hijacking it over, under, and dancing across it), people are more likely to give something interesting and relevant a click.
And for the time people put into their blogs, sites, whatever, how many of us out here are actually making cash equal to the efforts they put in? Yeah, it’s a hobby, or you like to share, or whatever, but isn’t it nice to know your two cents worth might actually earn you two cents? While my site doesn’t make tonnes of greenbacks for reviewing films, I do enjoy screeners and swag from every studio pitching their latest blockbuster, and that ain’t nothin’!
Of course, there’s a special hell reserved for people still spamming comments with gambling sites, the same one reserved for child molesters and people who talk during movies.

In reply to: New use of WordPressThe “bathroom” sign for slayers and demons is the funniest thing I’ve seen in week! Nice to see someone else using WordPress primarily as a content manager while taking advantage of the blogging aspects it affords.
Oh, and just so you know, I’m linking you, and there’s nothing you can do about. 😀

In reply to: All-new WP1.5 powered MovieCrypt.comMaxT: Seems you’ll have to reread my previous reply to your reply, or I’ll just have to explain it better 😛
This is the actual, unparsed source code for the offending line:
<h2 id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>”>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
As you can see, I can’t make the changes you mention because WordPress is actually generating the code you’re basing your solution from; otherwise, you’d be right. “< i >Legend of Zorro< /i > Teaser” is the data itself in the “the_title” field, which is why the XHTML validator keeps mentioning that this is data, not source code. The only way to omit the <i> </i> tags is not to include them in the title, which I would very much prefer to include but don’t think WordPress was ever designed for.
My question is thus: how can I rewrite this line of code to allow “the_title” to include italics tags without showing them in the bookmark mouseover?

In reply to: All-new WP1.5 powered MovieCrypt.comMaxT: 7 years ago when I started critiquing film, I was chastised for listing film titles “In Quotes” instead of italisizing them; for my industry, it’s the correct syntax. It’s true that the validator warns for designating those tags in the title (but not the body; why shouldn’t that matter?) but it does look correct even if it technically isn’t (it occurs as data). Is there a way to create an italics tag for part of a title without using something tagged as a delimiter?

In reply to: All-new WP1.5 powered MovieCrypt.comMaxT: I took your “suggestions” to heart (in the form of a quick kick in the backside). I’m happy to report that after spending all day pouring over the speghetti coding, MovieCrypt.com is now Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

In reply to: All-new WP1.5 powered MovieCrypt.comJinsan: where can I look to find the correct syntax/coding to correct those errors? I’m an old, old school programmer (“Code is Speghetti”) where if it works, great! Fix this and fix that won’t do it; any good tutorial sites that can tell me WHY the old tags have been changed so I’ll stop using them? I don’t wanna start “fixing” things and everything stops working.

In reply to: Binary Moon – new blog in townThe colors you’re using are both off the wall and wholly unique. Very nice! I’d never imagined anyone in a million years thinking up that color scheme, but you’ve made it work.
