good plan. i’ve done as you suggest. cheers

nah – it doesnt like that. the whole code segment is:

<?php
}

if ( $recentposts = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT ID, post_title, post_content FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = ‘publish’ AND post_date_gmt < ‘$today’ ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 5”) )
{
?>
<div style=”float:right;width:33%;”>
<h3><?php _e(‘Recent Posts’); echo ” »“; ?></h3>

<?php
foreach ($recentposts as $post)
{
if ($post->post_title == ”)
$post->post_title = sprintf(__(‘Post #%s’), $post->ID);
echo ”
• ID’>”;
  the_title();
  echo ‘
  ‘.substr(strip_tags($post->post_content),0,150).’ […]

‘;
}
?>

sorry wrong category – i blame the mouse roller

Xavic, in forum admin I’m getting:

WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax near ‘ENGINE=MyISAM’ at line 13]
CREATE TABLE wp_xdforum_forums ( xf_id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, xf_xg_id int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’, xf_position int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’, xf_name varchar(150) NOT NULL default ”, xf_description varchar(255) NOT NULL default ”, xf_status enum(‘active’,’inactive’,’readonly’) NOT NULL default ‘active’, xf_threads int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’, xf_posts int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’, xf_views int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’, PRIMARY KEY (xf_id), KEY xf_id (xf_id) ) ENGINE=MyISAM

I know what you mean! cos I want to do that too. Did you find a way?

ah that’ll be it – level 2. the pre-upgrade members are still at level 1.

Thanks Michael!

couldnt quite follow the instructions for configuring xdforum.php.

sorted it, miraculously. if anyone else has the same problem:

insert

session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION[‘JOE_VISITOR_ID’]))
$_SESSION[‘JOE_VISITOR_ID’] = md5(time());

into wp settings

actually they didnt. I didn’t really understand what I needed to do. I tried putting

<?php include(ABSPATH . ‘/jvisitors.php’); ?>

into my ‘template’ (which I assume to be another name for the ‘index.php’ file that resides in my themes/carrots folder?)

and it resulted in my uri leading straight to jvisitors.php

so…I need some kind of idiots guide

opaz

yep, looks like they could help, cheers

opaz

sure thing podz

btw your upgrade instructions are excellent, thanks

just upgraded from 1.2 to 1.5. jvisitors is broke. someone said earlier its easily fixed by changing a couple of lines, can anyone tell me what lines to change??

cheers
