In reply to: Possible to include, not exclude, certain Pages?🙁
I can hack the code to create an “include” feature, but when future upgrades to WP arrive I will always need to to tweak. If the developers are watching this thread, it would be great to have this feature in future versions.
The reason this is important is that if you “include”, you don’t have to worry about adding more info to the tag in the future when you add more pages. However if you only use “exclude”, each time you create a page you must remember to make changes to the code to exclude it (if you want) from being seen by users.
tks! 🙂
Try putting spaces between the characters in each smilie.

In reply to: New page returning 404hmmm… but why would “blog” make any difference? Is there something I am missing on why this works without “blog”?

In reply to: URGENT!! Please Help!!!These are very very simple HTML things that can be corrected in about 90 seconds. If you plan on being online for the rest of your life, now’s the time to start learning basic HTML. If you don’t learn now, things will only get tougher in the future. 😉
Here’s a hint: use HTML comments to remove the menu items in #2. Commenting the HTML is important so if you want it in the future, you can just remove the comments.
And, no, I do not mean comments on a blog… I mean HTML comments. See this link: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

In reply to: Summary Problem when PostingThis is a good fix, but I already have hundreds of posts. Do you I need to manually place the <!–more–> tag in each one, or is it possible to do it at a macro level?

In reply to: Can I UNDO case-sensitive URLS?Basically, Linux/Unix servers are case-sensitive and Windows servers are not case-sensitive. It is possible to change this, but it is really not suggested for Linux servers and is a pain in the butt. If you are on virtual hosting, then your hosting folks probably will not make this change for you and you will instead need to make the change either in your htaccess or within your own URLs.
It is a best-practice to try to always use lower-case for everything from filenames of images to filenames of files to directory names. Note that email addresses are never case-sensitive…

In reply to: OurTake.net, my first wordpress theme and new site.Wow! Great theme! If you add new categories, does the theme automatically add boxes on the frontpage, or do you manually need to add that?

In reply to: Exclude one category from RSS feed in WP2.0Check this post here: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/56824
To me it doesn’t seem like a really graceful solution, as I would rather not see commas and such in the URL and thereby show users that they can add their own numbers (and omit numbers) to show/notshow certain categories. But it works.

In reply to: Smart quotes and other characters converted wronglyYes!! Worked for me too! 🙂
Now, is there a way to get mysql_query(“SET NAMES ‘utf8′”); added to future releases of the software? I think this is a critical cosmetic fix for some of us on our blogs… I am unsure of the protocol at WP on how to request this–any idea to which guru I need to kowtow to in order to get this added? ;-p

In reply to: How to remove magic quotes?Hmmm, actually I am using the plugin here:
http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/TextControlBut maybe I am not using it correctly… it seems like all the settings I use for it still make it come out magic_quotes. Any idea what set of features on the plugin I should utilize to ensure it works well?
Tks!

In reply to: Smart quotes and other characters converted wronglyis there a chance your pages are encoded not in utf-8? For example, did you make a change to how your blog is displayed? Your phpMyAdmin should be displaying in utf-8, and therefore all the characters seem fine, but your blog might not be like that.
I just posted a related (though different) problem, btw, a few moments ago.
