In reply to: Media Library QuestionWell, no – you don’t (and shouldn’t) clear the media library. But you don’t need to either, because… it’s your library!
If you select the option to
Organize uploads into month- and year-based folders
the folders to sort all the files will created as you upload new images, so the uploads folder is quite organized.On my site I now have 485 images in my media library, but I don’t really need quick access to images I’ve posted months ago. Although I can still find anything by browsing a single month at a time or by searching.
Hope this makes it clearer? Good luck.

In reply to: How can I create twwo types of taggingYou can use Categories instead of Tags.
Categories can have a hierarchy, tags cannot.

In reply to: Making a theme like this2) I’d create a page template for your front page and
use this Page as the Front Page. Then create a category for the “use this post on the front page” and revise The Loop for just showing post from this category. The category can be assigned to posts in the admin-interface.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Post displaying in customizable orderSorry for not quite answering your question here, but if you don’t need the published date for other posts on your site, I recommend having a look at this plug-in
The Future Is Now.I used it for this site and found it really good for being able to customize a lot using the functions that are already present in the Loop. You can query for posts and sort the order ASC, make lists of past events and so on.

In reply to: Theme playing upOh, and your HTML is seriously messed up with somehow double up of HTML, HEAD and BODY elements on the same page.

In reply to: Theme playing upThis looks like an issue with your CSS.

In reply to: Gallery button is missing when uploading imagesIf I’m not mistaken, the gallery tab first appears when there are image files attached to the post. The media library shows if a file is attached to a post, right between author and comments. AND, as solarcrash writes, the post also has to be saved as a draft first.
- save your new post as a draft
- add an image with the upload/insert inside the post (not directly in the media library) and fresh from computer
- press “save all changes”
And the gallery tab should appear then. This does the trick on the site I’m working on at the moment.

In reply to: How Come Code Doesn’t Work Properly in WP?Remove the arrow, like this:
p { padding: 5px 0; line-height: 1.5em; }
WordPress is great for publishing content without needing to know HTML and CSS, but you can’t do web design without learning it.

In reply to: Can You Put PHP Code In Custom Field?You’re probably thinking of widgets, plugins are fine outside a sidebar.

In reply to: Pretty much cluelessWho do you mean by “them”?
If you have not innstalled WordPress yourself, ask the person who did to help you.

In reply to: Critical IE6 (and IE 5.5) Login ProblemHi, I just tested now and I am able to log on to my blog with both IE5.5 and two different builds of IE6.
I’m using Internet Explorer Collection.
The layout of the administration panel breaks in IE5.5, but otherwise it all looks surprisingly ok.
Good luck!

In reply to: Use WordPress as News Page of WebsiteSure it’s possible, you need to develop a theme. You should also look in to using WordPress for the entire site.
