Yes, I too have been experiencing the same thing. Recently… all of a sudden… I’ve been getting a surge in user registrations from shady folks. And if I search on the offending userid or email I get Google popping up MANY brand new registrations for the same “indivudal” over the course of two or three days (game forums, jazz portals, weight loss discussion boards, blogs, chatrooms, social networking, etc)… and all profiles are completely empty… all activity is zero.

Every thread you join here seems to turn to poison. I have a picture for you, though.

I’m experiencing the same problem.

With WP2.5.1 and the latest version of Simple Tags I should be able to auto-tag all my blog content… but I get 0 tags added after 300 posts of attempts.

Actually I got thinking about this post again. Web 2.0 is an ethereal and subjective notion at best… and even as organizations hold conferences and try and define it it is nothing that could be captured in a theme. For sure, pastel palettes and rounded corners with the word “beta” after the site title does NOT make a Web 2.0 site.

I would be scared of where my family and friends wondered off to once they got to MySpace. Why don’t you have them meet you in the red light district for dinner while you’re at it. ??

Seriously, put links to your WordPress blog all over your MySpace account profile and then never log in again. That’s what I did (sorta).

That’s right, I forgot you are an SEO Enchantress. Flash is a search engines enemy. It may be that in the future this will not be the case so much but for now it is. ??

I made a little Flash business card page (https://www.stevemooradian.com), but I put the content of my text fields in XML files in the application folder. Would the SE find them?

Hmm… probably not. Perhaps if I had a set of links to that content that showed up if someone didn’t have the Flash plugin.

I dunno… you’re the SE expert. ??

My Lady, you cut me deep! ?? I love Flash. Granted, I’m not the best but I have a little knowledge (enough to be dangerous).

Granted, many places use Flash detrimentally and not to enhance their actual web content… for instance, when you go to those sites that offer these complex highly-polished sites for $150 done mostly in Flash, what comes of it that your content is obscured by a lot of graphic nonsense.

BUT, when used well, Flash can be superior to any other presentation. We all know some sites that are gorgeous in Flash.

However, to agree with you… Flash, like AJAX, has limited use for a blog, with the possible exception of the photoblog. Just my opinion.

Yeah, I agree with the lovely LadyDeluna. Not everyone espouses the delicate rounded pastels of what you speak… it might sound good around Easter, but will fail come Autumn. ??

Really, style can’t be put in a box like that… and the AJAX is a bit of a fad, too. There are afew uses for a blog, but classically AJAX is better suited for more of a web application which has different mechanics from a simple blog.

Nevermind… I figured this out on my own.

If you go to https://www.stevemooradian.com it will take you to a different place than https://www.negative99.com but they are actually both the exact same site, just finessed based on the URL used.

I’m assuming since noone originally replied that there’s no interest, but if someone new sees this and wants to know the code I used just holler.

Try positioniseverything.net for tutroials on how to do 3 columns with liquid content (like on my site). There are several examples.

phu, you’re right. There’s no AJAX on the page. I didn’t check the source… I just assumed. ??

However, if I’m talking about XMLHTTPRequest() you should know that I realize Javascript doesn’t necessarily equal AJAX.

But, you are a moderator so perhaps I better just let you wack on me…

The simple way is to learn CSS so you can make the changes you desire. ?? I’m not trying to be a wise cracker… but the question you ask leads me to believe you don’t know how to do it, and therefore someone would have to do it for you.

Try reading some simple layout tutorials. Check w3schools.com.

matt :: philisophically I’ve always wondered about the AJAX sidebar items. I think (and this is just mho) that people wouldn’t notice the content of those unless they were already expanded. I know it sounds stupid, but people don’t like to click more than they have to… not even once.

I dig XMLHTTPRequest()s, don’t get me wrong… but for their relative lightweight content compared with the rest of the your index page I’d expand them out by default.

Great blog, though! ??

Ok, I did a search of theme sites I know and of collections of themes on the WordPress wiki codex and I haven’ seen a Greenery theme, so I declare mine the first and best! ??

I have cleaned up some style, but I would REALLY REALLY appreciate any thoughts, because I am thinking about making other versions of this same theme… like instead of a green color scheme and plants maybe red and lava, or blue and sky, etc. But I don’t want to waste teh time if the structure of the hteme itself isn’t what many people are looking for.

ladydeluna :: Yeah, your way is definitely more than workable. I think the mess I was referring to would be having twenty little php files running around my theme folder (I know it woulc be cleaned up… but). For me it was just easier to put conditionals in a larger file.

Oh, and don’t forget, since the conditionals are php the entire sidebar file doesn’t get sent to the browser… just what was conditionally included. ?? (I think)

I may be a little late on this topic, but for my site I have one “big” sidebar with conditional statements for when to include whatever. This works better for me because there may be things I may want on more than one page, but not all (like an archive calendar). If I made seperate templates for each page I’d be duplicating this code (unwise), unless I want to make EVERY item in my sidebar its own little file and include them as necessray in the multiple templates (sounds like a mess).
