    *slaps forehead* Of course!
    Thanks, David!
    As silly as this sounds, I sometimes forget the templates are really just PHP files. ??

    LaughingLizard, thank you! This is just what I was looking for.
    Question: Is it possible to include both a “post” and a “preview” button, so the user can choose if he/she wants to go through the extra preview step?

    I hate to bump–but does anyone know how to do this?

    Well, CD was just an example. ??
    allusion, I’m using Acronym Replacer 2.0 by Joel Bennett (https://www.HuddledMasses.org).

    Agreed! I posted a thread about this earlier, but didn’t hear of an official solution. I might make a plugin to customize the link output when I have the time–unless someone does it first. ??

    Both Textile and SmartyPants can handle this case, so there shouldn’t be any reason that Texturize can’t.

    Actually, there’s one more–sorry about all the complaints, I just really want to use this plugin. ??
    Some acronyms are nouns and can be made plural (such as “CDs”). Unfortunately the replacer doesn’t seem to recognise this.

    I hate to bump this, but does anyone have some information on this issue? That is–has anyone been successfully using the Markdown plugin, or have I configured something incorrectly?

    Sadly, it’s not currently possible to apply filters on a per-post basis, although I have no doubt this will be in a future release.
    I switched anyway and just spent a bit of spare time this week to convert all my posts to the same format. Unfortunately the Markdown plugin has some serious (read: showstopping) issues right now, so you might want to hold off until it’s fixed.

    I’ve recently switched from MT, and I won’t be switching back. ??
    The biggest reason why I think you should use WP is the community. If WP doesn’t do what you want it to “out of the box,” experts on this forum almost always come up with a solution. There are a lot of active and enthusiastic community members here determined to improve WP–and, unlike MT, the community can improve the product; WP is open-source, which means that any developer can make suggestions and contribute improvements. While WP is still relatively young, I have no doubt it will surpass MT in every capability. ??

    I don’t care if Google finds it; in fact, I plan on manually linking these pages on my site. ??
    The reason I don’t want them indexed on the front page or in the archives is because they’re going to be used as “content” pages. For example, my about page, etc. By managing it with WP I can enable comments and trackbacks, etc. But right now I can’t seem to prevent a category from appearing on the front page and archives.

    No, I didn’t. I just typed it. ??

    Just what I was looking for! Marvellous; thank you! ??

    Clever, but my trolls used to leave fake (and often obscene) names. The disemvoweler works wonders, though. If anyone has a troll problem, I strongly recommend it over banning them. ??
    Anyway, I made one more modification to the disemvowel function. Sometimes you may want to disemvowel a single comment without affecting past and future posts from the same IP address. With this modification, if you edit the comment to include [troll] as the first word in that comment, the comment will be disemvoweled.
    function disemvowel($content) {
    global $comment, $disemvowelIPs;
    $troll = ereg("^\[troll\]", $content);
    if (in_array($comment->comment_author_IP, $disemvowelIPs) || $troll) {
    if($troll)
    $content = substr($content, 7);
    $content = preg_replace("/[aeiou]/i", '', $content);
    $comment->comment_author = "troll";
    $comment->comment_author_url = "";
    }
    return $content;
    }

    Sorry, I should have clarified. I’m not referring to actual posts, but rather the comments that guests can attach to my posts.
