I finally figured out why some of my posts aren’t tweeted. The title is too long. It’d be nice to have the URL’s automatically shortened using tinyurl or bit.ly. Or as others said, just truncate them. I hope this gets fixed soon.

That page was made a year ago and probably isn’t using the new WordPress 3.0 menu feature. I’m not trying to order the items in the menu, that’s easy cause it’s drag & drop. I’m trying to order the top level menus. that’s not drag & drop unfortunately.

jkovis – I can’t show it on my blog because I manually click on each image and put it at 60% to make it fit on the page.

The media options you mention, I don’t want my images to be resized permantently. I just want them resized to fit on the web page. If I do what you say and then later change my theme the images will be sized to incorrect sizes.

I found a plugin to do what I want. It’s called hungred image fit. It works great. I don’t have to resize anything now.

now if I can just get my images to be centered automatically it’d be perfect. It seems the uploader window doesn’t really center it even though i select “center”.

I’m searching for this right now, so any info on how to do it would be appreciated.

No ideas?

I think I put it in /blog so that I can reserve the top level for non-wordpress stuff..

I opened a bug with firefox, waiting to see what they say. either it’s a bug firefox or it’s just a loophole in the spec. The solution is to put all my divs on the right side in a containing div and float the containing div.

I figured out the problem, I submitted a bug for firefox but I’m not sure if it’s a bug or just not specified in the css specs.

the solution was to put all my divs that float right inside a containing div and float that one.

hope this helps someone..

I forgot the relevant part of the stylesheet:

img.left {
float:left;
border: 0px;
margin: 5px 10px 0px 5px;
}

I’m using this technique on my blog and it works fine for IE but for Firefox it doesn’t work. It puts my image way down on the page. I can’t figure out why. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I’m using Firefox 2.0b2 so it’s possible it’s a bug.

in my blog entry:

<img class=”left” id=”image12″ src=”https://www.michaelmattox.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/la-banque-postale-logo.png&#8221; alt=”La Banque Postale Logo”/>Well it is in France at least. I kind of forget this fact….

and in my css:

img.left {
float:left;
border: 0px;
margin: 5px 10px 0px 5px;
}

I just found the <!–more–> tag which seems to do what I want better than the_excerpt, but I’m still curious if there is a solution to my problem with excerpt. Hopefully this will help others as well.
