cynics

what i did was to change this line:

.sociable img {
	float: left; <-- change to LEFT
	width: 16px;
	height: 16px;
	border: 0;
	margin: 0 3px 0 0; <-- changed to 0 3px 0 0 to include some space
	padding: 0;
}

to get it into a horizontal line.

Had to dig this old thread out as I’m not having any luck writing chinese on my WP 2.51 blog.

I’ve used https://g30rg3x.com/utf8-database-converter/ to convert the database to utf8_general_ci … on WP configuration its UTF-8 …

but when I type my posts, on a Mac, using Safari with the build-in language input system, I still get garbage although in the admin page, the copy appears correctly.

please advise.

Thanks

Hi, is there a way to extend the code above to grab the permalink to the parent page?

oh pardon me. i saw wrongly. ?? its past bed-time…

is_paged() only will give value if the page is a Page … note the cap “P” …

argh. on second thought, yes it did help to resolve the problem on my main page, but it made all individual pages missing. and i think the plugin author is not providing any support for this, i’ll have to look for alternatives. thanks anyway.

thanks alphaoide.

hi davedot, i’ve implemented something similar to what you wanted. try it and see whether it works.

<?php if (have_posts()) { ?>
<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
<?php query_posts("cat=-1"); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
...

then for the sidebar, i’m using the customizable post listing plugin to display that category you are using, which in my code above, is cat 1. and the entries in the sidebar won’t “eat” into the numbers being displayed on the main content.

macmanx, yeah i already went thru every step proposed in the Codex but it’s only becoz WP is reading the wrong path given by Dreamhost, that’s why it can’t edit ( since it can’t find the file )…

jalenack – its not the site on my profile, but i’m doing manual cut/paste now. just that when i update/add Pages, i’ve to manually do the updates. jus some hassle i guess.

so i suppose mabbe it’s just “lira” … the server my sites are on.

What do you need to use it for?

if i’m not wrong that’s how WP locates where to find the .htaccess file. since it is not showing the correct path, it’ll not allow auto-generation/updating.

jalenack – thanks for the link to the kbase. will look into it. trying not to change to PHP as an apache.

if you are installing on the Mac, did you put the files in ~/Sites/whatever-you-call-it or /Library/WebServers/Documents/whatever-you-call-it

If its the former, ur installation URL is https://localhost/~yourusername/whatever-you-call-it/wp-admin/install.php

If its the latter, ur installation URL is https://localhost/whatever-you-call-it/wp-admin/install.php

Thanks Kafkaesqui,

used the query_posts("cat=-3"); solution and using Customizable Post Listings to do the asides instead.
