@summaartis, can you please share the way you did it or plan to achieve this? I am also trying to achieve this for one of my clients but don’t have good PHP skills.
TIA

I will love to even do that can you give me some incite into it or a little details about how to add an extra area?

I was facing the same problem, and did copy the .htaccess code from here and it worked for me fine .. should work for you as well.

I did try AllowOverride Fileinfo Options All, but caused 500 error.

nope, here is the .htaccess file

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

@samateo, probably you have not got what I am asking? let me say it again, it is already changed now I want to restore the default?

Thanks for your response but don’t want to use any plugin and the other thing is I want to restrict it only for specif users and not all of the users belonging to Admin Group .. will be hiding few menu options and then want to make sure that the users don’t have access to those hidden options even if they enter a direct URL.

I have just uploaded the WordPress files once again, and am able to get rid of this ridiculous problem. Thanks all

Yes, the code will work and server your purpose you need to put this code in the head section [header.php]. You need to replace .page-item-7 for all the top level items you don’t need to be click-able [Not really, will reference to current page].

Just for knowledge sharing may be it proves helpful for someone else I did this by adding a JQuery Script

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('.page-item-7 a:first').attr('href', '#');
});
</script>

Obviously by adding reference to all the menu-items [pages in my case], I did find this code from somewhere but don’t remember now. I know it can be improved to dynamically skipping the menu items having some ‘chile nodes’ but with my limited knowledge of JS I could not accomplish the same and would appreciate if someone can go a step even further to achieve this.
I am using a child theme of Twenteyten 1.2 [the version build with WP 3.1]

I did sort this out myself, it started to happen when I tried to overload to index.php [as guided in the comments section] by placing a file loop-index.php in the root folder of the Child Theme [based on TwentyTen v1.2].
It is given here for the benefit of may be someone else suffers through the same problem.

No, it just keeps on trying to load the page. The site is running on localhost currently.

Yes, have seen qtranslate and it presents a very good way out for the translation [provides a short codes like ([:en] for english and [:fr] for Francais) of TEXT widget, which is working like a charm.

Now the challenge being faced is to translate the things like Month and Day Names and the Plugin appears to check
Automatically check for .mo-Database Updates of installed languages.

But even then the entries are appearing in English only any pointer to sort this out will be appreciated?

No, I don’t have any plugin installed and will code the functionality myself. Yes, will have to write the code to write the posts data from the text [DELIMITED] or XML file as may be appropriate. I have done almost a similar project for WP 2.8+ using the table prefix for the different domains.
Now have to do almost the same for a 3.1+ installation with 180+ sub-domains and nothing like table prefix sort of thing available – but blogid. I am not sure how the the ‘Domain Mapping’ plugin arranges the different domains under a main site.
One other option could be to place the listings in a single main site and share it across the domains? any comments on this will be appreciated.

I wonder if there is some tutorial or an article to describe this in a bit more detail. I have been trying myself for quite some time but without any success.
TIA

@thulefoth: I did try to use that faux columns approach to my advantage but could not make it to work for me .. may be too dumb for that, anyway good luck to you.
