I have had this issue since WordPress 2.0. I use the Benevolence theme, and I just assumed it was a bug or error in the theme itself. As a sort of workaround, I created a new page (not an about me page, those never showed up) and removed the ability to comment.

Found it. Some kind of bug in the custom fields option at the bottom of the post (in edit mode). If I delete all these and remove the plugin, it works. Thanks for your help.

I didn’t notice the comment thing, but I a million thanks to you. I disabled all my plugins and it still does that. Any idea how to fix a search once the plugin has been disabled? Again, thank you very much for you reply.

I’m not sure what is incorrect with your Postie setup. Don’t bother filling out wp-mail.php because it’s not used by Postie. Login to your Dashboard and Click the Options tab, then Confugre Postie. Make sure that you setup your email address and password here, and that your email account supports POP. Once that’s done, send and email to the address you setup with Postie and try manually running Postie from within the config. See if that works first. If it does, then you just need to setup a cron job on your server to check for mail every few minutes or so.

Are you using Postie or WP’s built in email program? Because wp-mail.php has nothing to do with Postie. I do not use wp-mail.php with my blog.

I ended up getting it to work, but only by having a friend in Australia (who is better at cron jobs than I am) login and set it up. Now it works very well.

What email are you using? (Gmail? Your own?) It sounds like you have not enabled POP email access for your email, which prevents Postie from logging in. This may or may not be an option, depending on who you use for email.

The good news is that you can always setup a new account at a free email place so that it will work ?? Post back and I will try and help you more if I can.

Oh, sorry, I misread your reply. Currently, my index.php is:

<?php get_header(); ?>

    <div id="content">

	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

        <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
		  <div class="date"><span><?php the_time('M') ?></span> <?php the_time('d') ?></div>
		  <div class="title">
          <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
          <div class="postdata"><SPAN class="category"><?php the_category(', ') ?></SPAN> <span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></span></div>
		  </div>
          <div class="entry">
            <?php the_content('Continue reading &raquo;'); ?>
          </div><!--/entry -->
        </div><!--/post -->

		<?php endwhile; ?>

        <div class="page-nav"> <span class="previous-entries"><?php next_posts_link('Previous Entries') ?></span> <span class="next-entries"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries') ?></span></div><!-- /page nav -->

	<?php else : ?>

		<h2>Not Found</h2>
		<p>Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>

	<?php endif; ?>

      </div><!--/content -->

      <div id="footer">
	  <a href="https://www.ndesign-studio.com/resources/wp-themes/">WP Theme</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.ndesign-studio.com/stock-icons/">Icons</a> by <a href="https://www.ndesign-studio.com">N.Design Studio</a>
	  <span id="mangoorange">, columnized by <a href="https://www.mangoorange.com/">MangoOrange</a></span>
	  </div>
    </div><!--/left-col -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

So how would I enter this correctly? After I do, it gives me an error message.

Thank for the fast reply. Where do I post this code parameter and on which file in the WordPress theme?

Setting up a cron job with help from my hosting company to check “https://oldfishandlemonade.com/iphone/wp-content/plugins/postie/get_mail.php” every 5 minutes does not work.

Does this plugin not work with WordPress 2.2? All the documentation references WordPress 2.0 and 2.1 and the WP-CRON plugin which (apparently) does not work with 2.2.1. What the heck is WP-CRON? Is it built into WP 2.2.1? How do I set it up? Has ANYONE on the entire planet ever gotten Postie to work with WP 2.2?

NM, removing “<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>” solves this issue. Figured it out (I think).

I’ve implemented this on my blog but have a troubleshooting question.

https://www.oldfishandlemonade.com

I like to have the search bar in my header, but this causes a problem when someone looks at a blog entry directly and tries to use the Category option.

When someone visits a direct link and tries to switch categories, the code places “?cat=18&submit=Go+Fish” at the end of the blog entry’s URL. Is it possible to change the code someone so that it always starts from the domain itself, as it normally would if you try to switch categories from the main page? This would be a great help to me. Thank you.
