In reply to: banned?When you get the banned message, view source to see why, that’ll give you a clue as to why. The logged in commenting thing hasn’t been fully tested w/ Spaminator.

In reply to: Discussion Options changed by plugin?Well, with a cross-site-scripting cookie hijack, and a matching HTTP post the settings could be changed.
That would entail you clicking on a link that was posted to your site, so that your login cookie could be read. Have you followed any of the spammer’s links “just to see” what was there?
But this seems a bit much work for a spammer to do, for one site. But if this was wide-spread, I could see a market for a list of “open blogs” for use by spammers.

In reply to: WP 1.5 show/hide categoriesBasically, the trick w/ 1.5 is to use the
is_category( $num )
function in anif
statement to wrap your main loop. You can also negate it to exclude a category.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [ANN] WP-ContactForm for WP V1.5You’ve trusted some user input, won’t really harm the site using this, but could lead to some funky stuff sent via email.

In reply to: WP 1.5: Spoiler hack needed.CSS2 adds :hover support to any element
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: WP 1.5: Spoiler hack needed.Actually, a pure CSS way to do this would be to have .spoiler class as above but to also add:
.spoiler:hover
{
color: red;
}Which would make the text red when the pointer is over the span.

In reply to: How do I add images to posts?It’s all relative, literally.
If your WP install is in
wordpress/
and you do thebase
as above, then you can specifywp-content/image.jpg
and have it work as it should. If you don’t hang thewordpress/
on there, then you’ll have to find your images aswordpress/wp-content/image.jpg
Oh, and my mistake above, the
base
tag should be in thehead
section. Validation would point that out.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Apostrophes in blockquotes not properly displayedMost likely the font that you’re displaying the page in doen’t have proper support for the character.

In reply to: Importing MT-like data problemClose, but your 3rd field would end right before the letter ‘r’ (after the ‘=’) since that quote is not escaped.
More like:
INSERT INTO wp-posts (post_author, post_date, post_content, post_title, post_excerpt)
VALUES ("1", "2005-1-14", "<p class=\"red\">Something in \"red\" here.
<p id=\"fred\">blah blah</p>","Post Title", "This is the excerpt blah blah")Notice that the quotes enclose all the data, anytime a quote appears in the data it needs to be escaped. Here’s a trick to finding out if your data’s correctly formatted:
Import it.
If you get errors, note the line number, then go look at it, fix it. Wash, rinse, repeat, until it imports without error.

In reply to: How do I add images to posts?Also, it should be below the DOCTYPE or your page won’t validate.

In reply to: Importing MT-like data problemNon-escaped data:
this is "something" that screws up my "importing"
Escaped data:
this is \"something\" that screws up my \"importing\"
the second you can stick between double quotes and import it just fine.
