alchymyth,

Thank you so much for this!!!

This is a great plugin, but it’s doing the duplicate post thing in my 2.7.1. install.

I think the author should fix this, but to be fair, WP keeps churning out releases so frequently that I think it’s hard for authors to keep up and make sure that their plugins work with latest releases.

Thanks for this great tip. Strange, tho, I got this to write out the version:

<?php echo 'version is ' . $wp_version; ?>

…but not this:

<?php echo 'version is ' . $wpmu_version; ?>

MichealH,

I upgraded from 2.3. I was able to just change the post status from post to page in the tables, but there are other things in 2.5 that don’t seem to work, like the image insert tool. The Flash upload doesn’t work at all, and once I’m able to upload using the browser option, it doesn’t actually insert the image into my post…it just hangs.

But the thing about changing pages to post worries me the most. I mean, you can’t tell which things were posts to begin with and which were pages, unless you know the blog really well. It seems like a lot of people are having issues with 2.5.

I do have a full db and file back up.

Thanks.

Is “Keep this page private” selected on the edit page for the affected page? If so, deselect it.

Is the page still showing as published on its edit page, or is it showing as Publish Status Unpublished?

Nope, the page is published. What I did was just copy the content from that one page and pasted into a new page, which worked just fine. Still don’t know what happened, but all is good. Thanks.

perfect. thanks again!

jeremyclark13, it worked! thanks so much. i see that you took out <?php if(is_home()) {?>, but can you tell me what else you removed?

thanks a ton!!

Ah, now my question is spam. You just love to bully newbies, don’t you. It makes you feel powerful and smart and in control. How sad.

I’m sure banning me will be the biggest thrill of all. Enjoy.

I know exactly where I am, my friend. If you do some research, you’ll see that this issue applies to both MU and stand alone versions of WP, and I have posted in MU as well.

I respect the role of moderators on any forum, but badgering people and foisting your opinions upon them shouldn’t be part of your role.

I simply want to have the option of opening *some* links in new windows, as do many of our users on our WP MU sites. This is not a crime as far as I know. But if it does constitute a violation of some kind of usability guideline, why is the option to open links in new windows part of the WP application in the first place?

I just want to know how to do this. I don’t need a lecture on the ethics of “forcing users” to open links in new windows.

Thanks.

Sorry about that. Thanks for the link.

Well I feel dumb. All that was required was re-setting the admin password via PHPMyAdmin, which I did but neglected to set the encryption to MD5. Once I did that, the login worked.

Thanks for all the replies.
