What was the URL of the order by custom field thread? I’m in a very similar situation as you: need to display events in chronological order, with start and end date, hide but archive old events.

Event Calendar seems to have the infrastructure for that (at least the entering data part, and the archiving, as events are normal posts), but I don’t really know where to start to (a) change the display order and (b) hide posts where the event end date is past.

Right, problem solved. I deactivated a bunch of plugins I wasn’t really using anymore (or which weren’t really working), so the culprit is probably among them:

– CG-Archives by year
– Next/Previous archive date
– Plugins Used
– Twitter Updater
– OpenID Registration

Deactivating all plugins by renaming the directory allows me to log back in. So possibly, the problem is due to a plugin (I have TONS). Unfortunately, I didn’t make any changes to any plugin recently… so it’s a mystery for me why things suddenly “stopped working”.

Should ask Dreamhost…

My bad, I didn’t give my blog address for kind souls who might want to go and have a look:

Will try to “fix” it before upgrading, though (worst case scenario: I can deactivate plugins by wiping the right field in the database).

Has anybody found a way to do this? I need an “upcoming events” page, which we would like to manage with posts having a future date. I’ve installed EventCalendar but it doesn’t seem to be totally adapted to what we need.

I have the same problem. Already solved it once, but can’t remember how. The solution in the other thread removes the warning, but when I log into the admin area, I still have “no rights”.

I couldn’t disable plugins before database import because my initial server crashed badly.

Easy, in fact: at the mysql prompt (or in the SQL area of PhpMyAdmin, if it lets you) type

REPAIR TABLE wp_comments

??

Any idea how tech support fixed it? I have the same problem now and I’m my own tech support ??

Found the solution: in my index.php, the comments template was included with <?php comments_template( is_single() ); // Get wp-comments.php template ?> — because I wrote the theme when I was using nightlies, and had some trouble with comments appearing in my home page.

just removed the is_single and all is fine now!!

Good idea!

No error with “classic”, the comment form appears. I do get this error though, where the Pages are listed:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/steph/www/wp-includes/template-functions-post.php on line 368

With the default theme, no errors, but the comment form is not visible.

is_month() and is_yearly() (or is_year(), not certain off the top of my head)

maybe is_month() and is_yearly() is what you’re looking for? (could be is_year() too, not certain).
