In reply to: [Theme] Final Release of the MX4 ThemeOh, one other note. When used with the Coppermine Integration plugin, the archives page sidebar gets all frelled up. For some reason, it’s calling for comments from the coppermine database. I have no idea why or where that’s coming from. I’ve combed over the archives.php and the BX_functions.php files but can’t find the reference.
You can see this in action here: https://www.electrolund.com/archives/
Strange, huh?

In reply to: [Theme] Final Release of the MX4 ThemeI’m using this theme now with WP2. It’s very nice, you’ve done a great job! Instead of your photo gallery, I’m using Coppermine with the CPG Integration plugin. What mail form are you using? I was using PXS with an old theme before for its anti-spam features.
Also, I found a bug with the comment ID numbers. It was apparent when Get Recent Comments plugin was turned on. It points to the absolute comment ID number, not the relative number you have in your comments.php. Change this line in the comments.php file:
<li id="comment-<?php echo $commentcount ?>" class="<?php comment_type('comment','trackback','pingback'); ?>">
to:
<li id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>" class="<?php comment_type('comment','trackback','pingback'); ?>">
…and all will work fine. Cool!

In reply to: mx4 theme with stats pluginGuys, I’m using the MX4 theme but settled with Gamerz’ WP-Stats. It’s not so much a plugin as it is a WordPress mod. But very simple to edit and use; you just can’t configure it directly within the plugin API of WP.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: WP-Stats For WP 2.0Also, what would it take to turn this into an actual plugin that can be turned on/off in the plugins panel or configured from there as well?

In reply to: WP-Stats For WP 2.0Is there a way to run this “plugin” (not really a plugin, is it?) with RunPHP inside a page with other stuff?

In reply to: transparent pngsI’m trying to use this PHP fix as well, and am really confused.
Nowhere in the replacePngTags.php file is any mention of needing to tack on a “-trans” to existing PNG files. Neither is there any mention of this on .
Nevertheless, I’ve appended that text to one PNG file and updated the blog post. No luck.
I’m confused how replacePngTags.php knows where my image is located. On line 179 of replacePngTags.php, I’ve tried a couple variations:
1)$replace_src_with=$quote.$img_path.'..imagesspacer.png'
2)$replace_src_with=$quote.$img_path.'<?php bloginfo ('url'); ?>imagesspacer.png'
I’ve written to the dev, Justin, and he was talking about an include file that I’m missing, and a bunch of things I didn’t quite understand.

In reply to: Video Blogging ToolAB1, I forgot to add that my code works after what Avenir said. Upload your movie first, start a new post, and then past all that code.

In reply to: Video Blogging ToolFor Quicktime movies, here’s what you want:
<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" width="320" height="256" standby="Data is loading..." codebase="https://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
</param><param name="controller" value="true">
<embed src="https://yourblog.com/where_your_movie_is/movie.mov" width="320" height="256" autoplay="true" controller="true" type="video/quicktime" pluginspage="https://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</embed>
</param></object>Some important notes about the above code:
1) This is set for autoplay and controller both ON. That is, the little controller bar with the play button and progress indicator is enabled. Once the download is reached a certain percentage (I think something like 10%), the movie will begin to play. Those both can be turned off in the code.
2) If you leave the controller bar ON, then you have to adjust for the new larger height of your movie. For instance, if you movie were 320 x 240, then the overall height of the displayed movie will need to be 16 pixels larger for the bar. In the above code, I’ve already compensated for this. The new dimensions are 320 x 256. To find out the dimensions of your movie, open it up in QuickTime and go to Windows | Show Movie Info.
3) If you want to center the movie or right justify or something, just wrap the whole thing in paragraph tags with inline style editing:
<p style="text-align:center;"> ALL THE ABOVE CODE HERE </p>

In reply to: Completely overwhelmed by the plug in list. Please help…healthgurl, I’m a bit of a plugin junkie! I find that I have an “itch” every so often for a good new one.
of your list I’m using (or have used):
SecureImage — I’m using CaptCha! instead, similar, easy to install
Subscribe to Comments 2.0
Email Notification v2.2
WYSI-Wordpress — I used this for a while but it was a tad clunkyYou might want to consider adding a couple to your list:
Link Truncator — this is nice when newbs post a comment with a huge (non-TinyURL) link.
PXS Mail Form v2 — this is the easiest and most robust mail form I’ve found
Vipera€?s Plugins Used — this is a nifty plugin that displays all your activated plugins on a page or post. very handy for people like us to see how the site was built! check out mineForum: Everything else WordPress

In reply to: javascript plugin text wrappingViper, you were basically right. Got a fix from the developer. Inserted this after the ELA call:
<div style="clear: both;"> </div>

In reply to: CSS for images–help neededMmm, I see moshu. So, moral of the story, stick with absolutes? I’m not all that worried about it, except for what Lorelle said about some browsers having trouble with super long link names.

In reply to: <center> tag not allowed? Causing problems…Oops, sorry about that. But I really did find this info helpful. And hey, at least I didn’t post a brand new thread with the same question. I found the info I needed! ??

Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: CSS for images–help neededThis is a great thread! Thanks for the great info. Incidentally, I seem to have trouble using relative links like this
src="image.gif"
. I have to specify an absolute (full) path or it doesn’t work.This has got to be a setup issue somewhere, right? Where does the relative path point to by default?
