Hi there, and thank you for the Custom image sizes plugin :)

I would just like to offer a slight modification to the plugin code:

replace line 31 with

$size_name = is_array($size_name) ? implode("x", $size_name) : trim($size_name);

because image size can be input as array too.

thanks for listening ;)

Thanks for your answer!

Hello SetiH,

You should be able use the default Gravatar functionality of your theme, so you probably don't need this plugin.

This plugin is meant mainly for theme developers, so it requires some familiarity with theme coding.

Hello,
first of all, I come from france, please excuse my english...
;)

I'm just starting to use Gravatar and have downloaded it. I went on my Plugins menu and activated it but i dunno where to add
'<?php do_action('gravatar') ?>'
in my comments.php template.
In fact, I openned the template but didn't find where to add the code in :(

Please help me !

Thanks

I am going to write my own WordPress Plugin (from scratch).

I am wondering if anyone here has had any experience doing this and if they can offer any suggestions.

I have been looking for some sort of comprehensive list of all the "hooks", "Filters" and "actions" and what they are used for.

As I mentioned in my email reply and on the bbPress forums, I didn't mean for this plugin to be used yet. It's still being developed.

I also forgot to note that, if you are logged in using the Login Free Posting plug-in, it still display all fields (name/email/website/comment).

If you are logged in, it seems like you should only display the "comment" field since the user name/email/website should already been known for logged in users.

On my v1.0.2 bbPress forum, I'm using the Login Free Posting plugin

http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/login-free-posting/

It works great if you are not logged in.

But if you are logged in, it does not allow you to post a comment.

I receive the following error when logged in and I try to submit a forum post

Error: "Your attempt to submit this post has failed."

Hi Austin,

I was just wondering if there was a way to show the tags as a list (like the categories) and not as the cloud?

Thanks,
Roy

Hello,

It is common experience that wordpress rich editor system adds or removes <p> tags at will, inserts <br class="spacer_" /> tags, get rids of <div>'s and changes formatting by itself. Overall this makes for very frustrating editing experience.

I tried to use Tiny MCE Advanced plugin, disable wpautop and other methods, but it didn't help much. HTML seems to quickly "self destruct" as soon as it is saved a few times.

I wonder if you could suggest comprehensive way for Wordpress editing system to stop changing HTML in rich editing mode?

Could you elaborate on the error message that you received? What version of WordPress and what version of the plugin are you using? What browser?

I can't get the plugin to write to the backup folder despite following the instructions provided.

Hi,

Thanks for the fast reply.

I tried everything. In mysql I tried to upload the backup as utf8, latin and more or less all the rest.

I tried to change the mysql connection collation to latin, utf, whatever.

Did the same with charset.

Tried to use iconv to convert the backup online.

The settings in Wordpress positively did not change. But just to exclude it, I tried changing the wp-config.php.

The problem is not the Danish charecters, but the Chinese ones in all the posts. They are turned into ???? and no matter what I change whatever setting to I now can not publish them either.

My guess is that one of either the WordPress or MySQL character encodings were different prior to restoring the database.

Try changing the various character encodings, such as changing WordPress's to utf8_danish_ci.

Also, there are also tools that let you convert one encoding to another, such as iconv. You could using such a tool on a copy of the database backup.

I have a Danish blog, where I often also write in Chinese.

Until recently that was not a problem. However, I had to use a backup of the database, and now all the Chinese characters – in all three years of my articles – are converted into questionmarks.

Plus, now I can’t publish Chinese characters either. I can write them, but once they are published, there’s just a line of ?????.

As far as I can tell, none of the settings in Wordpress, MySql or Mars Edit have changed.

In Mars Edit the encoding is set to UTF-8 (which I need for special Danish characters æ, ø and å).

In the Wordpress dashboard it is also set to UTF-8.

And in Php Admin MySql it is utf8_danish_ci.

What to do? I really hope there’s help out there.

You're right. I've fixed the problem, and I apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi. I just wanted to mention that it is standard practice to make archives (tarballs, zips, etc.) with subdirectories inside. It is considered not just bad form, but actually somewhat rude to dump many files into the root of an archive.

Someone unpacking the archive into, say, wp-content/plugin/ will have files spewed all over their pristine plugin/ dir instead of in a nice, self-contained wp-backup/ dir or some such.

99 out of 100 Wordpress plugins follow this convention; indeed, it is a UNIX convention in general. You would do well to follow it in the interest of positive user experience.

Just a suggestion. :) Have a nice day!

The opening <?php and closing ?> are already in your functions.php file, so you shouldn't be adding them. functions.php is not a template file like the other theme files, so you don't want it to be printing, as it will do with that code.

Also, be sure that all that actually is on one line; if you break it up onto multiple lines, it has to be done correctly or else it won't work.

Wordpress version: 2.7

Hi

I tried implementing your Wordpress, single post, template code suggested to Nathan Rice,
http://www.nathanrice.net/blog/wordpress-single-post-templates/

I have added this line to my functions.php

<?php add_filter('single_template', create_function('$t', 'foreach( (array) get_the_category() as $cat ) { if ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php") ) return TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php"; } return $t;' ));?>

And created a template called "single-31.php" and placed it in the same directory as single.php (31 being the id number of the category I want to apply the different template to).

I have created a post with only that category applied to it.

Unfortunately nothing is happening and it is still using the default single.php template.

Can anyone help?

Thanks very much

Hmm. Sorry you had trouble, but I can't seem to reproduce the problem.

I'm running the development version of WordPress on this site, so sometimes things get a little buggy.

I've been trying to post a comment to your "a good enough addEvent" article. I enter the comment, and click "preview", and the page simply refreshes to the same page again and my comment is gone.

What do I need to do to get my comment in? :)

Thanks!

Hi ;)

I'm using your plugin "remove dashboard" and I find it useful.

However, it leaves an
UL opened, so without any LI inside it.

That gives some layout problems with many admin styles.

I tryed to look at your php code but it's too complicated for me.

Can you help me a bit?

When I changed the title in admin > Manage > Pages the title/link still appears the old name that I change on the page along with the new one. Thanks in advance for your help.

how would i go about emoving plugin access and design tabs to administrators, is it a case of removing the files, but i want to also remove the actual links too thanks

Dear Filosofo,

please give me some enlightmen how to modify the remove-dashboard plugin so that it redirects to "Write Page" instead of "Write Article". I could not find any hint at the plugin code/comments how to do this.

Thanks in advance.
Daniel.

No matter what theme I select, I am unable to access the theme options under the presentation tab. When I click on theme options, it just takes me to a white screen. Any help out there? Thanks!!!!

Yup that worked. Thanks for the link!

I don't know about Yahoo specifically, but just about every host offers PHPMyAdmin, which you can use to restore your database following these instructions.

Recently I had to reinstall my WP blog at Yahoo (I did something stupid and boogered it). Fortunately I had a backup of the data in the form of a .sql file.

So I repeated the Yahoo install of WP (version 2.0.2 still!) but when I use the Yahoo c-panel it only gives me the option of restoring files into WP from other blog-management databases. No way to restore a WP database.

How do I go about restoring my comments and posts and pages I backed up into my fresh install of WP?
