I tend to get the “cannot add header information” errors after editing a wordpress php file I shouldn’t be messing with lol. It has always been solved by checking that there aren’t any extra blank lines at the end of the file. Go back and check any of the files you changed and see if there are extra blank lines at the end and delete them. Hope that helps.

Well, that was indeed very helpful. Unfortunately, I’ve now noticed that pingomatic isn’t being pinged at all from my blog. And that’s without actually making any modifications yet.

I had originally deleted the url from my sites to ping list in options. After putting it back in, pingomatic doesn’t get pinged at all. It used to work fine. But I removed it because I didn’t want the main blog to get listed and was having everyone ping manually with their URLs.

Ah thanks! You are the man… or woman, as the case may be. I was mistaking all of the lines that followed the //comment about debugging as pertaining to debugging. Doh!

Not sure exactly what you mean to do. If you want to list posts on the “front page” and group them by category, I think the example code from the codex about get_posts might point you in the right direction. Hope that helps.

For anyone else who happens to run in to this limitation while running an install of the multiblog hack, I have found a crude work-around by simply replaceing the contents of the default folder in your themes directory with whichever theme you would like to use. A little bit of php scripting is needed to avoid displaying any content you don’t wish to be shown on the root blog page, but a few if statements do the trick nicely. If someone else has found a more elegant solution I’d be very interested in hearing it.

Thought I’d clarify what I’m trying to do. Right now, when somebody visits https://www.mysite.com/wp/, index.php loads up the default blog page. That default blog is unalterable because of the way the multiblog hack works. What I’m looking for is a way to stop index.php from loading that default blog whenever somebody visits the wp directory, without interfering with the functioning of the index.php. Hope that makes a bit more sense.
