If you do not want a bullet, you can always use the following code for the particular LI. I am just assuming the structure, so edit it to your site’s requirements.

sidebar.ul li {
list-style-type: none;
}

I also encountered this problem in the past.

Based on my observations, it is because you are attempting to refresh the page when your style.css is not fully transferred or in the midst of updating.

I don’t see any indented list.

Highly probable that your style sheet is not displaying the bullets.

See, clearly we use tags differently. Because I always type in tags. It’s faster and simpler than any other way. I can’t actually think of any easier way to do it. I mean, do you select from a big list or something? That sounds more like categories to me. Typing in tags sort of defines what a tag is, to me. They’re very specific keywords about your post. If you don’t type them in, then that sort of misses the point.

I’ve got thousands of tags, I don’t even want to imagine having to find and select them from a huge list of them. Typing them is the easier way and it lets me make them up as I go along. You’re not supposed to have to “manage” them, as I see it, as they’re basically just keywords.

But that’s how I use tags. How do other people do it?

The way I deal with tags, I write a post then I would type it. And as I do that, there would be a list of tags which I have tagged with showing. The problem with just typing them, you would have 2 variations of a tag with the same idea. For e.g. national service and ns, sometimes I just lose track of what I define them as.

With regards to tag management, what we should be able to do is rename the tags, delete them … etc, that is the kind of tag management I am talking about. But I do understand the constrains of adding so many new stuff in WordPress 2.3, I hope it will be considered in the next release.

2.3 is a little unrealistic with regards to coming up with everything we would expect of a perfect tagging system. Just having tags and being able to display a tag cloud is sufficient for me until the next release. Maybe some additional documentation on the tag cloud would serve well.

I suppose we have all been unclear of what kind of tag management is needed in WordPress 2.3. To put in simple, we hope WordPress would make tagging as simple as plugins like UTW and Simple Tagging.

I think KirkM has pointed the basic functions of the kind of tag management system we are looking at. I think tag management is pretty realistic for the developers, but with regards to formatting a tag cloud, I do think we can use the generic tag cloud function for the time being. That can be hold off to the next release. What we should do right now is to ensure tagging is available to the users in the most friendly format, and typing out each tag as I have seen in Beta 2 is hardly going to convince a user to like tags.

Did you put your ID when you inserted the GA Code?

I suppose the closest to tag management would through the use of the tag cloud.

When we are writing a new post, we should also have a way to select an already present tag instead of typing it ourselves.

I hope this can be considered for WordPress 2.3 though because these are the basic functions. I have got my current theme to work with using WordPress 2.3 tags.

Manage tags, so we can rename, delete them whatever, just as we did with UTW and Simple Tagging.

It works fine when I imported the Simple Tagging tags, but there should be somewhere to manage it. And how do I create a tag cloud?

I am using GA on my site and it is working fine. I am using the year/month/day/post-name permalinks though

Looks like in WordPress 2.3 Beta 2, there are importers for simple tagging and jerome’s keywords. Do check it out! I shall be installing it on my local installation.

Based on what I seen, you should go through the structure again. The UL LI are misplaced and on top of that, some deprecated attributes like align and size … etc, go through that. Those errors are listed when you validate it, very simple really.

@root: I don’t agree with you, being validated helps in SEO. I have had a couple of searches linked to my site, and I owe part of it it to the good markup I have on my site.

The listings is too many, it would be a pain for any of us to go through it. Like I said before, solve the simple markups before heading down to why your polls are not valid.

I need to know what are the errors before I can advise you.
