Hello again…I finally finished my upgrade to 1.0.1. I tried this hack many times, and wasn’t able to get it to work.
my-hacks.ph *is* enabled already
I tried the template-functions code with, and without the – and +
I tried it one line at a time, with all the code, then with only the + codes, deleting the – code
I’m missing something…thanks

The Wiki on this hack states: “This modification is against WordPress 1.0.1-RC1.” I guess that means that it won’t work on WP 1.0, right?

Gordon…this is exactly what I’ve been wanting…Thank YOU!
But I’m not doing very well with the code you posted. I’m thinking the reasons are that I modified my template-functions.php file, so I probably put your code in the wrong place.
Would it be possible for you to include the function name in addition to the line number?
Thanks again
Sherri

@sg: Nice to meet you 8^)
I linked three of them in my smilies post. I learned from my MT days that it’s a good thing to post how things were done, so if I botched something, I’d be able to find how I did it. And if someone happened to surf my site, wanting to implement a hack, they wouldn’t have to search for it (or email me after I’d forgotten where I found it LOL).

@laughinglizard: I think that would be great!
I’ll admit it confused and frustrated me, until I read through enough of the thread to realize I’d been using the incorrect code for what I wanted. It almost gave me a MT headache ROFL

Thanks to Laughing Lizard and SouthernGal, I finally have smilies!
Once I figured out that this thread had three different variations of smilies, I was able to choose the correct ones, it was easy pie using the txt files (so I wouldn’t have to worry about the board changing backslashes thing).

@allusion … BOINKS myself on the head…I kept thinking it was a coding mistake on my part, but it worked in my browser (FB 0.7) before posting it to my WP, so I thought it was OK. I only use anchors every once in a while.
That explains how my “normal” text was hyperlinking LOL…..Thanks Allusion
@alex …But I’d still like the option to turn off WP auto-formatting in the future, cuz sometimes I don’t make mistakes 8^)
@NMoose thanks for the comments here, and on my site. I’ve got your acronym script open in another tab, and will probably give it a whirl shortly.

Hi Craig…MY html that I did in my text editor was like this (using parenthesis as brackets since I ran into code problems in my initial post):
(a href=”#2″)2(/a)
(a name=”2″)(li)a link(/li)
Hi Alex, thanks for considering this in future developments. I’ll move the credit links to the insides of the blockquotes in the meanwhile.

I changed my smilies path to /wp-images/smilies, and have General Blog settings set to use_smilies TRUE (1 is not an option in the dropdown).
So how do I get the smilies to show? I haven’t seen any clickable smilie things, or a keyword list though. What am I missing?

Quoting Alex: “Scott, you can pass in a cat value (category ID) to the rss files to have a feed of each category. Actually, you can pass in pretty much any of the values you can pass in to the index.php page.”
Hi Alex, how would I be able to have my category list come out so the RSS link would be right next to the html link… like this:
CATEGORIES:
Personal (RSS)
Politics (RSS)

Ok, got mine fixed up the way I want it. I copied the_category function, pasted it after itself, named it the_category2, and took out the echo ul stuff, and the li stuff. Then I made the changes to the index, Category: <?php the_category2() ?>
This unlisted one is still linked, that’s how I wanted it. I’m still using the listed one in my sidebar.
Thanks

woops the (li) tags didnt’ come out right, I’m not used to this forum software, sorry

I’m new to WordPress, so I don’t know how the previous versions worked. But I do like having the category made into a link to show all posts posted to that category.
But I also wish there was a way to have it with, and without, the list tags ‹li›,
I am currently using it as it’s written for one of my side sections; it’s nice how it is, I’m thinking I’d eventually like to try the dropdown hack, and am wondering if the ‹li›’s will interfere with that.
Additionally, I’d like to place a PLAIN , (no list tags) “Posted to XXX Category” on the same line as my author/date/comments line that’s under the entry. Since it has the ‹li› tags autogenerated, its dropping down under that line.
So I put it back under the title…but now it’s picking up my ‹li› styles, and looks strange 8^)
Is there some code I can add to the template-functions.php that I could have it both ways?
Thanks,
Sherri

(I’m still struggling with my styles, but only a few things are off at this time)

donnie’s link fixed my blank page problem (I chose the 2nd choice since I’d had problems with that referrers script in the past). Thanks again Donnie!
Sherri

THANKS donnie!!
I would have NEVER thought to connect those two things together *S*
I did the 2nd choice, since I’d removed the referrer stuff from my MT blog a while back, since it (or a mistake I’d made) generated SO many errors in my logs.
