In reply to: Pingbacks and pretty permalinks – continuedForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Pingbacks not using permalink structure (with solution)Argh! It’s doing it again! Starting May 27… the day of the 1.5.1.2 update.
It looks like I need to redefine the permalink structure every time I upgrade?

In reply to: RSS Feeds keep returning 304 Not Modified, even when they have.Sorry, I thought I was searching. And those other threads… no mention of the 304 status, which is what I was searching on.
Obviously these boards aren’t for support. It must have been the word “support” in the URL or maybe “Troubleshooting” in the title that confused me. I’ll be sure not to make the same mistake again.
While you’re at it… check the date on the original post by admiraljustin. It predates the bug (which, incidentally, I found in my second round of searching… before coming back here to helpfully post the info) by 2.5 weeks. I hope you’re not admonishing him for not searching as well.

In reply to: Technorati?It looks like Technorati lists the time that they indexed the post, not the time the post was made.

In reply to: Question on Technorati tags and code in my postUpdate: I reported the spider problem to technorati, and they apparently made some changes in the last couple of days. They fixed the problem, and my tags have started showing up. Try pinging Technorati to make sure they re-fetch your site, and see if the tags start showing up.
Oh, to clarify the original issue (of what code to use) — use
<a href="..." rel="tag">...</a>
. The<category>...</category>
code only works in the RSS feed and is generated automatically by WordPress. Or use a plugin.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Question on Technorati tags and code in my postI think I found my problem… Technoratibot hasn’t pulled my feeds — or my journal — since Monday (despite standard pingomatic hits *and* manual pinging). For some reason they’re polling the root page of my website instead.
But again, as of a few weeks ago, what you were trying to do seemed to work.

In reply to: Question on Technorati tags and code in my postIt should be possible, but I think something’s broken. I just don’t know whether it’s in WP or Technorati!
FWIW, I was able to get this to work earlier this month (I made a post about April 1 pranks with the tag “April Fools” and it showed up), but posts in the last couple of days haven’t shown up in either href-labeled tags or category-based tags.

In reply to: Using the word ” “I don’t know about the compress problem, but the curl issue sounds like it might be related to mod_security rules. Some of the example rules block anything that looks like an attempt to fire up curl via a malicious web request.
Ask your host whether they’re using Apache with mod_security, and if so, whether they have any rules with curl or compress in them.
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: 403 Forbidden ErrorThis sounds like it might be related to mod_security rules. Some of the example rules block anything that looks like an attempt to fire up a common downloader called curl via a malicious web request.
Ask your host whether they’re using mod_security, and if so, whether they have any (overly-simplistic) rules that look for curl.

In reply to: Change rss_languageThat’s bad enough for those of us who want to make things more specific, but what about people who blog in another language? That ends up producing feeds with bad metadata.
I know it was a fight to get the feature back into WP 1.5, but without a UI to set it, it’s almost worse.
Adding a field on the Reading>Options page, under Character Encoding, should do the trick without causing too much clutter.

In reply to: Over 300 hits from Inktomi/Yahoo User Agent in 1 hrI don’t have problems with excessive hits from Slurp. That honor is reserved for Ask Jeeves/Teoma, which has managed to hit, as near as I can tell, every single page on my site an average of three times this week. It barely registers on the site as a whole, but if you look at just my blog, it chews up 16% of that chunk of bandwidth. Slurp manages about a third of that, Googlebot even less.
No, my problem with Slurp is that they keep hitting long-dead links. You’d think a year’s worth of “301 moved permanently” responses would clue the robot in…

In reply to: how to block comment spammermacmanx, I guess this didn’t come out right (chalk one up to incomplete revision), but I’m on your side. FAQs, searches — they save everyone time. The idea that saying “you can find this by searching for xyz” or “this is in the FAQ at xyz” is somehow unhelpful and even rude (in and of itself) seems shortsighted at best.
But then we do live in the era of instant gratification.
