In reply to: [Review Ratings] [Plugin: Review Ratings] half-star reviews?CSS is no substitute for content. As a poor man’s solution, you could use U+00BD (vulgar fraction one half), thus: ★★★?

In reply to: HTML 5 theme for WordPress, good idea?I agree with @bradyjfrey. Older, less capable browsers will still have to be supported in the future, so we may as well figure out how to do it now. Don’t worry about promoting it to non-technical people. Those of us who would like to see it now already know who we are.
And keep in mind that WordPress’s default theme is XHTML, so it should already be valid HTML5, but the exercise is to improve it by incorporating new HTML5 features.
I do hope you continue to update it as the HTML5 spec is tweaked, or open-source your code so that someone else would be able to take up the torch. Good luck.

In reply to: Admin page missing/ page cannot be found?The files are there, because the same URLs work without the parameters added.
I would do as you suggested anyway, but I can’t get the settings for some of my plugins without access to their settings pages! Right now the organization can’t afford to have the website down or disrupted while I muddle around. I’m stuck tight.

In reply to: Plugin Options redirect to 404 NOTFound pageMe too. Any admin page with a URL parameter like the following returns a 404 (although user pages work). The Dashboard, menu items added by plugins under Plugins or Settings, and any pages with confirmation messages don’t work. This is a real showstopper, and I can’t even upgrade unless I first access some of this.

In reply to: Admin page missing/ page cannot be found?Sounds like I have the same problem as Ordained, in WordPress 2.6.x
The regular admin pages work fine, like the options page:
https://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php
But any Settings or Plugins link requiring a URL parameter returns 404 not found. Even the main Dashboard page is broken.
https://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=maintenance-mode.php
Fresh install of 2.3, in site root, but weblog is on a sub-page. Set up the weblog, added posts, and pages, and edited theme. No problem.
Browser locked up (Safari), so I started a new session, and this problem comes up. Deleting cookies and restarting doesn’t help. Tried Firefox, and the same problem.
Downloaded the patch. Works now. Whew!
