Did anyone ever try to add a “months” dropdown box to this plugin (which is highly useful as-is, by the way)? I asked about this some time ago, and I have seen others ask, so I was just curious
Thanks,

Sorry for the repeated posts, but I think I’ve got one started.
function show_month_select() {
global $wpdb, $tableposts, $y;
$months = $wpdb->get_col("SELECT DISTINCT MONTH(post_date) as month FROM $tableposts ORDER BY month ASC");
$output .= '<option value="">All Months</option>'.NL;
foreach($months as $mo) { $output .= '<option value="'.$mo.'"';
if ($mo == $y) {
$output .= ' selected="selected"';
}
$output .= '>'.$mo.'</option>';
}
$output = '<select name="m">'.NL.$output.'</select>'.NL;
echo $output;
}
It displays the drop-down box with the numbers of the months, but doesn’t do anything. I would like it to display the month names, and actually do something. ??
Here’s a test if you’re interested.

I too would like to know how to include a dropdown box for months.
Great plug-in, though.

I had this problem too. It’s some weird character encoding thing. If you delete and re-type the offending characters and then publish, it should be fixed.

That doesn’t work.
Still a handy plug-in, though.

What happened to your CSS?

I think it looks good.
What were you planning to add to it?

It’s a plug-in, but I forget whose.
A search of the forums ought to turn it up.

Are you referring to the number of posts visible on the front page? If so, that’s an option set in the admin area.
That also controls the number of posts visible on the admin “Edit” screen. For example: I have mine set to show the last 15 posts. Say I have 30 for July and 17 for June. On the admin “Edit” screen, I’ll see only the last 15 for each month (kind of a pain, I admit). If I want to see a specific post not shown, I either temporarily bump up the number to something huge (say, 50) or do a search for words I know are contained in the post.
Not sure I follow you exactly, but hope this helps.

It only shows up on posts that have been commented on. If the posts have no comments, it won’t show up.

Have you given any thought to the “show/hide” plugin?
I forget where to find it, but a search of the support forum should easily turn that up.

It should be as simple as downloading the new style sheet and giving it the same name as the default style sheet.
The style switcher, on the other hand, allows the reader to switch, at will, between two or more style sheets. You shouldn’t need that at all.

What exactly do you mean?
Archives are automatically generated from the database. If you’ve included the wp_get_archives() tag in your index page, all of your archives should show up.
A link to your page would help immensely.

It’s a graphic – the exact width of the (fixed-width) main column.

In the admin section, check Options -> Discussion.
You should find the configuration options you seek.
