I’m using the wikimap plugin which utilizes geopress as part of the plugin. I’m having a similar problem with IE 6-7, that I think could be related. Unfortunately the developer of wikimap no longer supports the plugin, so I couldn’t get any help there but I think the problem my be in my RSS feed. In my feed I don’t have any of the georss data.
If you look on our site, all of the map points show up fine on firefox but on IE 6-7 the map shows up but without any points.

I’m actually having the same problem.
I’ve been upgrading my site to WordPress 2.5 from ver 2.1.3 and in my old site I have a page listing of all “authors”. When you click on one, it brings up the author template whether they’ve posted anything or not. Using the Role manager plugin, they are allowed to register, change their profile, and post to a wikimap (again a plugin) on the site. In 2.5, it seems that something from the wordpress core is overriding my request for an author page. I’ve disabled all plugins, switched to the default theme, and it still does it. I call the authors’ pages by using this ‘https://www.mywebsite.com/?author=10’. I’ve also tried ‘/author/bob’ with the same results. As long as the author has made a post, the author page will show up using the author template, otherwise it tells me that what I’ve been searching for can not be found.
Any help on this would be super. I’m totally fine with editing the wordpress core, if that’s what is needed. I’m just not sure where to begin and what to look for.
thanks!

This kind of stuff has been driving me crazy with my wordpress site.
Why isn’t this a built in function with wordpress???!
here’s a plugin that works
https://goudendouche.com/comments_by_author_plugin/

Hey everybody! I have wordpress 2.1.3 and I took Xenuan’s suggestion and edited both my user-edit.php and profile.php . (I don’t mind getting down and dirty in the wordpress core. That’s what backup copies are for!) It works great… except for the fact that I have a plugin that is dependent on the profiles being called by author ID number instead of by username. This is the profile pics plugin I’m using. Basically this plugin allows for author profile pics. It names the pics with the Author ID number, so when you call the author profile by ID# it works fine, but when you call the author profile by username (as the Xenuan fix suggests) then the author picture doesn’t show up because it needs the ID number.
I imagine I could go in and edit the plugin to name the images differently and look for the username rather than the ID. (Well I’ve actually tried this and can’t really figure out what I need to do to get it flowing). Because I am such an amateur at this, I have a few questions.
First: What do I look for / change to edit the plugin?

Second: Is there nothing that would call the comment author’s ID number? It seems like there should be something super simple to get this working like….

‘< a href=”<?php bloginfo(‘wpurl’); ?>/?author=<?php the_author_ID(); ?>”><?php comment_author(); ?>’
(of course, as it is now it calls the post’s author ID rather than the comment author’s ID)

If there was something that would let you call the comment author id (like say the_comment_author_id), it would really fix all of this without having to go in and edit the wordpress core. Somehow I have a feeling that it’s not going to be possible….
Is this possible in 2.2 maybe? It might be worth an overhaul for that!

Thanks for any help !
