    I like the Journalized-Winter theme, I’ve considered using it on my site for a 3 column design.

    More importantly, however, I have a question about your content. It seems that you’re just reprinting copyrighted material without regard to crediting the original source. Good way to find yourself in hot water, IMO. Not trying to flame you, I’m just saying…

    BTW, when I installed the WordSpew Live Shoutbox plugin on my site, it increased load time by a factor of 5. I promptly uninstalled it ??

    Thank you for the responses.

    vkaryl:
    Yes, I tried searching for about 30 minutes.

    jonimueller:
    To make things a bit more clear: I’m using a modified version of the fmulti theme, which has no “single.php”, . I guess I could create a “single.php”, and just include the Bunny Tags & Posted To meta there, and remove it entirely from “index.php”. I guess I was just hoping there was an easier solution than having to create a page and figure out how to include it in the loop.

    estjohn:
    Yes, that’s what my code looks like, as well. When I was using the Crimson Milk theme, it worked perfectly. I’m guessing that this is because CM has a “single.php” in the heirarchy.

    Again, I appreciate each of you taking the time to try and help me out.

    If anyone knows of a solution other than creating a “single.php” page, please let me know!

    Thanks,

    Thank you for the quick response!

    Unfortunately, replacing line 51 with the code you provided didn’t strip the images ?? so i tried this:

    echo strip_tags($content, ‘<img’);

    And I’ll be damned…it worked!! It also stripped out the Adsense ads.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Lester,

    I already had the last version of WP-Print running on my site, so I didn’t have to add the print code or change my .htaccess. It does exactly what you said it does ??

    I renamed the old version wp-print.old, extracted the new WP-Print to the root folder, refreshed my site, and clicked the print link. All of the inline links in the article displayed in an ordered list at the bottom of the print page.

    One question, though. Is it possible to include a function that will strip out images and <!–Adsense–> code? That would make this absolutely PERFECT!! Not that it isn’t already awesome, but you know what I mean.

    Thanks again,

    GG

    Well, I couldn’t resist my urge to leave Crimson Milk behind, and I switched themes last night. CM is a wonderful layout, but the sidebar boxes and rounded content div’s were a bit restrictive.

    I still need to tweak the CSS a little bit, but I really love the colorscheme of the new theme.

    Sorry to do this to you after all your hard work, especially planetthogutful…I really appreciated the fact that you took the time to dig so deeply. Hopefully, you’re up to the challenge again ??

    I’m still very interested to hear what you guys think.

    With sincere gratitude,

    Shoutbox and Ad box are gone. It should shave a second or two off of the load time. I tested it 10 straight times, flushing cache between each, and the average was 2.27 seconds. Not bad, I guess.

    Thanks for the help, keep it coming!

    Well, it’s the internet…

    If people can read it, they can copy it. I don’t think there’s any way around that. At least they’re including the copyright notice ??

    If your site is getting harvested by a splog, try reporting it at this site: https://www.splogreporter.com/ . I’m not sure how they go about getting rid of splogs, but it’s a step in the right direction.

    Try using .htaccess hacks to disable hotlinking. Information here https://altlab.com/htaccess_tutorial.html

    Good luck!

    Yeah, viewing in Firefox, your sidebars are displayed inline at the bottom of the content column. Maybe needs some “div” help…

    I think first I’ll probably scrap the Ad box…it gets no action anyway. That should pare the sidebar down quite a bit. Then I’ll set to work on getting it to work with a new theme. I’m currently working on the CSS for https://zed1.com/wp-themes/journalized-winter.png, but as a novice, it’s slooooow going ??

    Thanks again!

    Thank you very much for taking the time to look in on it. A couple of things, though.

    Your point about the ads is well taken; obviously, they won’t scale at different resolutions, so I’ll just have to use a smaller ad format. As for the alignment of that stupid banner ad at the top, I’ve got to come up with another place to display it. (Perhaps in the loop, under the first post?).

    I, too, have viewed the site under IE6. I usually pull the site up under IE, Opera, Firefox, and Lynx after an editing session to ensure that everything renders properly. After reading your comment about IE, I panicked and tried it out. It seems to render OK here. Perhaps you caught me in the middle of an edit? I was trying to get an Awstats plugin working last night/this morning, and it was trashing my whole layout until I deactivated it.

    As for the sidebars: with this template, it’s challenging to present all of the information I’d like to have in the sidebar, due to the space between the boxes, and the dragbar portion of the boxes themselves that take up so much room.

    I guess maybe it is time to start thinking about a different theme. I’ve been thinking about a 3 column design for awhile anyway. Any suggestions in that regard?

    Thanks again for your feedback, I really appreciate it.
