Same problem here and also found that disabling plugins didn’t help. Have latest versions of WordPress and theme installed. As the OP suggests it’s astonishing that this hasn’t been addressed – are we seeing the end of WordPress as a reliable and trusted platform? Am adding links by hand at present but many will drop WordPress is basic problems bugs this are allowed to develop and then are not addressed.

Resolved by upgrading the theme to the latest version.

Have just tried this plugin and it isn’t working with 2.91.1 – can’t drag the widget into the sidebar.

Does anyone know of any alternatives which do work?

Great, many thanks!

PS – works perfectly!

Great, many thanks.

I’m getting the same problem since switching to 2.9 – get it with one theme but not others. I haven’t changed the theme that causes the error. Here’s the error message:

Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in /home/mindwor1/public_html/wp-content/themes/agent_20/tools/post_templates.php on line 23

The theme in question seems to function properly, but this makes a real mess of my dashboard and I’m concerned that there are other problems lurking in there somewhere that I haven’t discovered yet.

Smartsort – at least the freeware version – seems to be working now, at least on a test sit on which I installed it. It previously didn’t work on the same site. I don’t think the code has been updated so does anyone have any idea what has changed? Could a change to Mysql have affected it?

Pulling my hair out too, Rubiqube!

Am trying to sort posts using a ‘size’ custom field which shows values in square feet. Currently my code looks like this:

<?php query_posts($query_string . ‘&meta_key=size&orderby=meta_value’); if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

but it’s not sorting the posts.

I’d be very grateful if you could show me what the code should look like if it incorporated your revisio. Incidentally, should ‘order by’ in your post by ‘orderby’?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried it and it didn’t. Any other ideas would be very welcome indeed!

OK thanks again, is there anything I can do about that? So far as I can see there’s no option in the custom fields part of a post to specify the type of data that’s in the field.

Up till now I used the WP Smart Sort plugin to sort the posts. It no longer works with 2.8 but it included an option to specify the type of data.

Many thanks for that. I’ve tried inserting the revised code on my archive.php template and it changes the order, but isn’t sorting them by the numerical value of the custom key (see ‘size’ below). Any thoughts on where I’m going wrong?

It now looks like this:

<div id="contentleft">

		<div class="postarea">

<?php query_posts($query_string . 'meta_key=size&orderby=meta_value');  if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

            <?php the_content(__('Read more'));?><div style="clear:both;margin-bottom:30px;"></div>

			<?php endwhile; else: ?>

Update – just had a long chat with tech support at my host and they say that [email protected] isn’t being generated by their mailserver. Odd that it has ‘wordpress’ as the prefix.

OK, many thanks.

I’m able to log in via the temporary URL at the site, but tt turned out that the problem is due to the ISP which controls the URL pointing it at the site (which is hosted by another ISP) but not, it seems, changing the nameservers. We want the URL to remain under control of the current provider while the hosting is provided elsewhere AND for the current ISP to retain control over the organisation’s email.

I have a couple of sites (including a WordPress.com one) which have URL/domain name control and actual hosting at different providers so I know that that’s possible. Does anyone know whether it’s also possible to keep the mailserver/email control with one provider while hosting the site elsewhere?

I appreciate that this isn’t a WordPress issue but I’d be very grateful for any help with this.
