Ah, category hierarchy helps. Thanks Mo!

Thanks for the link. After reading, I think I’ve got a way:

A customized category.php that pulls that category name into an if/then condition. If the category is a parent category, then display the loop using html template “A”.
Else, the category must be a child-category, in which case, display the loop using html template “B”.

What do you think?

Kool, thanks Otto

Nice! Got a question though – did you tailor the update to work with the plugin, or did you tailor the plugin to work with the update?

Sweet, thanks Otto

It’s just got to be anywhere above the code for the corresponding “subscribe” form.

He suggests the header template file because that file gets run on every page on your blog, thus ensuring that the function is active.

Perhaps you just haven’t included the code for the actual subscribe form? You need that function call in the header, AND you also need this stuff:


<form method="post" action="maillist/index.php">
Enter your e-mail address to receive notifications when there are new posts

<input type="text" name="email" size="12" maxlength="36" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="sign up" />
</form>

Thanks Jane

You might find some means of editing the admin pages, but in the meantime, here is an alternative:

There’s a lot of free, advanced find-and-replace text file utilities out there, where you can designate a whole series of files to do a mass find and replace operation.

Visit downloads.com and search for “find and replace”

Noone but a search engine technician can tell you that for certain – search engine algorithms aren’t typically made public, otherwise everybody would game the system (even moreso than now).

But to address your larger question, which is whether or not title first or site first matters… it is better to do title first.

Reason is, results on a search page do not show the entirety of each webpage’s title – instead they just show the first x amount of words. So rather than a potential visitor seeing a whole list where each entry is your site’s name followed by the first word or two of the webpage’s title, it’s better to have the first words of your webpage’s title shown first, so there’s more of a chance that the catchy title will attract a click.

Did that make sense?

The sticky post plugin would do that.

Well, you might need to be a little more specific as to what you’re trying to do.

But to answer your question, yes it’s possible. You can edit the page.php template and take out the calls to the sidebar and footer, and then hard-code something else in there.

You know what everybody? It is a conflict.

I deactivated each plugin one by one, and it turns out the Text-Control plugin is what’s stopping it from showing up.

Thanks everybody!

yeah, got the css in there. Maybe it is a conflict, I’ll investigate that angle.

And Sam, you mean by browsing to the page, and looking at the source code, right? I have – it just shows that function call (the <!-- ddfm1 --> thing)

It thinks it’s a comment, when instead it should be swapping in a form.

Yeah, I saw that about the html button, but that’s not it.

I’ve been to that page, but support is spotty. Was hoping someone here had an idea.

Do you know what else could be wrong?

Thanks

sweet, thanks piz
