    Are you offering to take the job on?

    What does me personally have to do with critiques of an application? This forum exists so users can make suggestions. It would chill suggestions if the answer is “fix it yourself”. www.remarpro.com is a funded independently-developed product, not a community-built application.

    Besides, A certification process should be automated. Then it would not matter how many there are. Ideally, Plugin Developers would be able to run their plugin through the automated cert process during development, to ensure compatibility.

    Then you’re using poor plugins & themes…. There is no certification process for plugins at present.

    Exactly.

    The plugin system was created by www.remarpro.com. Therefor, www.remarpro.com has an interest in, if not a responsibility, to ensure the reliability of that system.

    Separate from what? Naturally each plugin is one idea, one vote, what else?

    If Matt was suggesting a “nomination” layer separate from a voting phase, I don’t see the advantage of the extra layer.?My suggestion was to put a vote widget on every plugin page.?

    My new suggestion is to track the actual install base (separate from downloads).?

    Votes tells you how many people like the idea of it.?Downloads (or attempted-installs) tells you how many actual WP admins want it.??Install-base tells you how many like that particular implementation by that plugin developer.?

    Then the WP core developers would consider votes, downloads, install-base, and their own roadmap, before choosing which plugins to integrate.?

    I imagine they do something like this already. But I wonder if they track install base.?

    Install-base is different from attempted-installs, cuz admins may install it but then remove it if they don’t like it. So a more accurate measure of popularity of that particular implementation is “how many WP installs have this plugin at this moment”, rather than incrementing a counter every time someone installs it.?

    Plus if you only count new installs, then you won’t get the bulk of existing blogs already using the plugin, which is the most important data.?

    Is that your interpretation, or he told you? Who submits? Who votes?

    Thanks a lot, Mike. You’re great!

    Seems to work ok without those closing tags… is there a possible drawback to the missing tags, aside from poor form?

    this plugin is broken by “Inline Editor” plugin.

    which sucks, because “Inline Editor” is one of the best plugins i’ve ever seen.

    what’s the conflict?

    problem with delete post for admin code– after it deletes, it tries to redirect browser to same post, which no longer exists.

    is there a way to specify which page to redirect to after delete?

    thanks!

    my bad. i figured out the problem. my images are links in custom fields, displayed by custom code in single.php. i needed to copy that custom code into index.php to get the images on the blog frontpage!

    wordpest, this link should work (but not for long, i’m changing my frontpage from static to recent posts in a minute)

    my index.php contains the_content, but i’m still getting just the excerpts.

    i tried adding the following inside the loop, which i found in the codex:

    global $more;    // Declare global $more (before the loop).
    $more = 1;       // Set (inside the loop) to display all content, including text below more.
    the_content();

    now i am getting the text content of the posts, but not the images in the posts.

    my goal is very simple: to display 1 sticky post on my homepage. i don’t care whether the homepage is:

    • a Page, with a function or tag which displays 1 post (which should be the sticky automatically)
    • or, the standard blog homepage, set to show just 1 post (which should be the sticky automatically)
    • or, the standard blog set to show stickies only. I tried inserted this into the loop:
      <?php query_posts(array('post__in'=>get_option('sticky_posts'))); ?>
      which actually works great, but still no images.
    • or, a Page, with a function or tag which explicitly displays 1 sticky

    what if my theme lacks a home.php? can i add one?

    i want to display summaries on archive pages, but full-text on the home page. currently, i get summaries on both.

    my theme has archivepage.php and archive.php

    then what are the blogroll category slugs for?

    Thread Starter johnywhy

    (@johnywhy)

    well this is weird, i changed the permalinks to “default”, and then back to ‘/%category%/%postname%/’. now pages are loading ok.

    except for pages created with TDO Miniforms.

    somehow, removing and re-adding the htaccess has wreaked havoc on my permalinks.
