I modified the plugin I mentioned slightly!

So when an image was uploaded it would rename it and place it in the correct folder!

The image in question was hard coded or placed in a widget with the correct file name and hey presto the end-user could change the image in the admin.

I’m glad you found what you were after!

I used this plugin to do what you’re after

Old style upload

Anyone eles?

If anyone wants the code I used…

## USER IP BANNING
<Limit GET POST>
 order allow,deny
 deny from 11.111.1.11
 allow from all
</Limit>

Just replace 11.111.1.11 with the IP

Thanks! There really shouldn’t be anyone who says no! As the IP was very specific, I just want to check.

This is what the host said…

Thanks for the ticket. Although the bandwidth usage is not particularly large, the amount of hits is likely to be an issue with any shared hosting account. Revenue from sites with 8 million page views a month should be more than enough to pay for a dedicated hosting service which I would have to recommend for a site of this calibre. If you do choose to transfer this site to ********** we cannot promise that it will remain up. If the terms and conditions are breached then we would have no choice but to disable the site. Unfortunately we don’t currently offer any dedicated servers.

Can anyone personally recommend any hosts that sell dedicated servers?

I’ve got it hooked up with wp-cache and my server is based in the UK, was it the home page that was slow? Thanks!

I’m UK based and I run an international site for illustrators completely in WordPress.

The Little Chimp Society or LCSV4.

I hope it helps!

I was using old $curauth calls

OK there’s this for getting something like an email address and so on.

<?php $curauth = get_userdata(intval(2));
echo $curauth->user_email;
?>

Doe anyone know how to call yim and aim from the profile?

<?php
if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
$curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
else :
$curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
endif;
?>

Does anyone know how to manually set the author using the above code?

sorry! i upgraded from 2.2

Is the share this link showing on static pages normal behaviour? If so does anyone know how to stop it without hardcoding it into the template.

Thank you, I’ll look into it ??

Hold on does 2.2 automatically turn off all the plugins when you hit upgrade?

I was going to do that untill I found out the site is now 4.5 gb in size ??

What about if I copy the old DB into a new install. Is there a way to disable all the plugins in the DB SQL text file before running the upgrade? As I said it’s a live site so I don’t want to disable any plugin through the admin, just in the copied DB.
