OK, thanks.

Now, does this work with Google Custom Search (linked to my Adsense account) or would that be a separate search box?

My site is here, by the way.

Thanks, that’s almost what I’m trying to do. I’ll take a closer look and see if I can tweak it, though I am a total newbie at coding and php….

I’d like to get it to look something like the search box at the top of this page

Go figure, it suddenly started displaying correctly….

EDIT: I take that back, it’s disappeared again!

Any ideas what is going on?

Yes, but can I combine a “search this site” with the Google Search box? I’ve seen these on other websites, and you have two buttons beneath the box allowing you to choose one type of search or the other….

OK, I’ve solved this by changing the permalink structure from the custom structure indicated above to “month and name”. I also deactivated the All in one SEO plugin, just in case.

Comments are now working and permalinks look normal.

Maybe someone else will find this useful.

I am beginning to wonder if this might not be a conflict between All in One SEO and WP Permalink settings, at least as far as post permalinks are concerned.

Anyone have any suggestions on what to try?

Another clue – I just noticed that when I click on the “change permalinks” button when editing a post, I get redirected to the permalinks setting page (where the default option is set), whereas, when editing a page, I have an option editing the page permalink right then and there…

I have the exact same situation as presented here, i.e. when you click on the post title, you don’t get a separate page for just that post, and no comment box appears. The only difference is that I DO have a single.php file in my theme. Any ideas on what could be causing it not to work properly?

I just noticed my post permalinks are weird, i.e. I only have two posts so far and they both end like this “/archives/%post%20name%/”
Could this be the issue?

In my permalink settings, it’s set to custom structure : /archives/%post name%;
I’ve also got All in One SEO plugin installed.

I already have many pages on the site, and with pages, the permalinks are working fine, i.e. the permalink ends with the name of the page.

I’m having the same problem.
Any ideas, anyone?

The problem was due to having unncessarily customised some of my sidebar widgets in TS Custom Widgets; the ones I want to display all the time should just be left uncustomised. I just deleted and recreated them.

Problem solved.

Just to clarify, I’d like to be able to set the widgets to display on the front page when it’s set to display latest posts instead of a static page; I don’t need to customize widgets for each individual post.

Here’s the code in the function.php file, which I haven’t changed at all:

<?php
if ( function_exists(‘register_sidebar’) )
register_sidebars(2);
function widget_mytheme_search() {
?>
<div>
<form method=”get” id=”searchform” action=”<?php echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]; ?>”><p><input type=”text” value=”Search…” name=”s” id=”s” onfocus=”if (this.value == ‘Search…’) {this.value = ”;}” onblur=”if (this.value == ”) {this.value = ‘Search…’;}” /></p></form>
</div>
</form>
<?php
}
if ( function_exists(‘register_sidebar_widget’) )
register_sidebar_widget(__(‘Search’), ‘widget_mytheme_search’);

?>

Well, it looks like it’s a bug in WordPress so I’m not going to try to fix it at this point as long as I can log out through the dashboard..

Thanks again for helping me solve the comments problem. That made my day!

This problem just arose after I inserted that line of code to fix the comment box…
