As well, setting my uploads folder on a test install to 700 fails to allow display of graphics previously uploaded by ftp, stored in specific folders, and called by a normal link in a post.

Too bad too, because that would have been really nice.

Not that it has anything to do with me, but in response to vkaryl’s reply I say: So what, it works doesn’t it? Personally I think that’s a pretty good thought.

Er…. yes, I thought that was what I meant when I posted. Not sure why you’d be offended….

Just back…. I believe so, I haven’t myself done that sort of thing, but there’s nothing to stop you trying – just backup the database first, using the Export function….

This might be in the database, instead of in the code. I haven’t looked myself (and haven’t time right now, just posting before heading to town), but you might check there first: wp_categories would be the table I think, and then you’d need to look at the structure to see how the text fields are set up.

If it’s set as “longint” or something, with a 255 char limit, then you know the problem IS in the code, and you’ll at that point have to consider whether you want to hack core code every time wp gets upgraded….

Now that’s one I would NEVER have thought of! Creativity is a true blessing…. and I will file this one away to hopefully remember should the problem ever occur for either me or my clients!

Thanks for posting!

There’s a lengthy page of “how-to” on Kafkaesquí’s site where you got the plugin. I’m sure it addresses that situation there somewhere…. For one thing, the plugin defaults to “the_excerpt” – so you’re going to have to read the documentation on the page thoroughly, so that you can “undefault” the stuff you want changed.

Start here: Conditional_Tags. That should give you the basics of what you need. After you read it over, then post back with what you tried if it didn’t work.

[I *think* you might need to do something like if (!is_home()), though at the moment my head is fuzzy from a cold and the wrong allergy med, so I’m most likely wrong – Handy Solo or Otto42 will be able to offer more “real” help probably….]

Oh, VERY good! How fun, clever, and evocative of personality…. Kudos to you, and happy blogging!

No discussion tab, but I don’t care about that anyway….

Well, sorry so slow, finally looked at the error page on w3…. Take out the two breaks (<br /><br />) following the closing li/ul/li series after View all posts filed under Humor. If you need extra space there, use some padding in the appropriate element in style.css.

I have a setup like this using 2.0.9, on a normal host provider online. It works perfectly, so it may be something specific to xampp?

[Edit: more specifically, I have myself and another person set as admins, with different logins, and the entire write page loads and works just fine for either of us.]

Your host is running php in safe mode. Some plugins and such won’t work properly (or sometimes at all) in safe mode.

Well, that’s great information, thanks! Don’t know if the original poster will ever see it, but at least the next person who’s looking for the same will find a solution!

Be SURE once you’re through editing that you change the file permissions back to 644 and the folder permissions back to 755. It’s very dangerous to leave them set looser than that.

Post bunches of code to https://wordpress.pastebin.ca/ then post the resulting link back here.

How I see where the line numbers really are: view and copy source on the page in question, paste into notepad2 (set to show line numbers), find the line number referenced in the validator, check the part of the page the line appears in (header, main, sidebar, footer, whatever), find the error in the appropriate file. Latest version of FF seems to have line numbering as well when viewing source (unless it’s one of my 30 extensions…. always possible….)
