In reply to: gallery, shortcode, imagesI agree, often I want a headline image at the top of a post with a gallery at the end… but the headline image is always repeated in the gallery…
I also haven’t figured out how to un-link a photo from a post once linked…

In reply to: URL Rewrite for Query in URLThe problem is that WP no longer uses .htaccess and mod_rewrite for permalinks – everything is rewritten to index.php, and the code examines the URL and finds the appropriate content.
You may need a plugin to get what you want.

In reply to: filtering short permalinksOtto42: That would be ideal – but it doesn’t happen.
Kafkaesqui: Thanks for that!

In reply to: Google will not index my posts or pagesOk, first thing – PLEASE don’t auto-play music on your website… I beg you.
Your sitemap looks fine… your robots beta tags look fine… the googlebot hasn’t been to your site since November 19th, so you may just have to wait for it to come around again… when did you submit the sitemap?

In reply to: filtering short permalinksmanaged to cludge this together… (in the theme header)
`
if (ereg(‘^/post/[1-9]*/?$’, $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’])) {
echo “<meta name=\”robots\” content=\”noindex\” />”;

Is there a better way?just make sure you have 301 redirects in your .htaccess from the /oldpage.php to /newpage
That will ensure that your PR follows to the new pages.

In reply to: Sharing users in a WP Network (not MU)After much reading and more thought, it seems MU is probably the way to go – as long as I can do the same custom-domain thing that they do… having trouble finding out how that’s done…

In reply to: redirecting old query-string requestsfor everyone else’s benefit, it just occured to me that it’s probably better not to 301 to the error page, just rewrite – if an SE gets a 301 to a 404, it might just ignore the 301 not un-index the orig. page…
So the last line would then be:
RewriteRule ^.*$ /index.php?error=404 [L]Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: redirecting old query-string requestsI’m more worried about dupe-content than pagerank at this point, but thanks for the heads-up…
I’m not actually sure what the clean way would be…
I can’t 301 to the appropriate post/page because the querystring is by ID and my permalinks are by postname…
also, the SE’s already have all the permalink versions indexed, so I really just need to clean out the old pages that still work but I don’t want them indexed…

In reply to: redirecting old query-string requestsI think I sorted it out… so far, this has the intended results:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (msnbot|slurp|Googlebot|gigablast) [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (p=[0-9]+|page_id=[0-9]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ /index.php?error=404 [R=301,L]

In reply to: Assigning posts to pages?page.php is part of your theme, so it need not ‘pull in’ a theme…
I would suggest reverting to the Kubrick theme until you get plugin and default functionality sorted out. Then enable your theme and see if anything breaks.
