It was due to a lightbox plugin.

anyone?

After examining the default K2 page.php template and messing around a bit I have found what appears to work. It’s as simple as adding this one line to blog.php:

<?php get_header(); ?>

The CSS works fine and the page still displays properly if I do this. I’m not sure why, but I’m not complaining. Can a moderator update the WordPress help files to include that line in the blog.php template? Or do you think this is only a K2 specific problem?

Is there really no fix for this?

When I select a default template for the “Blog” page, the CSS works fine, but the blog posts of course don’t show. I have to somehow add what’s missing to this blog.php code in order to make the template work:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/

// Which page of the blog are we on?
$paged = get_query_var(‘paged’);
query_posts(‘cat=-0&paged=’.$paged);

// make posts print only the first part with a link to rest of the post.
global $more;
$more = 0;

//load index to show blog
load_template(TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/index.php’);
?>

I am not having trouble with the front page… I am having trouble with the blog page.

anyone?

I will take another look at the tutorial to see if I can extract anything more out of it. I am also reading up on the Bad Behavior plugin to see how it works. In any case, this thread is now resolved. Thank you very much for the help everyone.

haha, wow, well that explains a lot. I linked to my about page from my first post and the time of the pingback corresponds to the same time that I added the link. Thanks! Is there any documentation that explains the process of trackback / pingback generation? Am I correct in stating that all someone has to do is link to my site in order for me to receive notification of a trackback / pingback?

Is there anything that explains this a little better. I have read about trackbacks in the wordpress documentation, but it doesn’t go into how it works technically. i.e. generating comments and approving them and such. The test comment is different form the “trackback” I am talking about. I was trying to replicate this mysterious “trackback” with no success. This is what my comment admin page looks like:

As it turns out, you are correct. This IP address is in fact the IP address of my site (I wasn’t convinced since the whois info has nothing to do with hostgator, my actual hosting providor, until it traced back to this IP address… very strange).

All I really want to know is how the that link got there, why it got there, and how to replicate it. Thanks again for the help.

But the thing is that the IP address listed in the comment is not mine, and the trackback does not show up anywhere on my site except the comments management admin screen. So if it was in fact me who sent the trackback (unlikely since I have now idea how) the IP address should be mine.
