WordPress help - Ask your questions

Hi OriginalEXE. I'm after a little help with choosing the right theme for a site I want to develop. I have the domain name and the idea all laid out, but need a suitable theme.

What I'm after is a failblog.org style layout. It needs to be user submitted pictures, videos and memes, with the ability to share with facebook and twitter and reply to each post through facebook, 9gag style.

I'm not sure if wordpress is up to this or if I should be looking at creating a bespoke website, but I thought if anyone knew you'd be the man to ask.

Cheers.

OriginalEXE I have another Question.

On the Theme Geoplaces v3 I have a Sign In Page. This page is Customized to fit the theme.
What I have done is I have Blocked so that you have to be Registered to Comment or in this case Review.

So what wordpress say is : You must be logged in to post a comment.

Can this text be changed ? also the "logged in" link links to the standard Wordpress login page. Is there any way I can change this link ?

I notice that the Thread where I downloaded the Theme is deleted or missing for some reason.
But I uploaded to my rapidshare account and will send you the link in PM.

Thank you.

Open your template directory, and then open comments.php

On line 73, you have the message that is displayed inside the <p></p> tags. Change that to whatever you want do display to the user (do you know basic html ?).
 
Great to see this thread is still alive. Some great advice here :) Keep up the good work OP.

Hi Original.

Yeah I do know html. The Script on line 73 is a lot of php, so i could not find the actual line that reads " You must be logged in to post a comment. "

But I did notice the link the original was this : /wp-login.php?redirect_to= all I did was change that to /?ptype=login&page1=sign_in

And walla it still shows the same You must be logged in to post a comment, but now when click goes to the correct Sign in page!!! Thx man!!

Your nothing short from being a Wordpress Genius!!!
 
I just wanted to add something regarding my complain regarding my wordpress site speed.

I installed the w3 total cache plugin basically without noticing from there my site was very very slow.

So after contacting the host several time's and asking questions here, I was not ready to move host's because of all the
problems with my client's and their email that will go offline for a day.

Yesterday I decided wait let me go g**gle how to configure w3 total cache. Found a thread regarding the configuration and the first words from the
author was : " If your on shared hosting, then don't bother with w3 total cache as this might slow your site down and you won't be able to use the
plugin to it's fullest. I suggest uninstall the plugin and go for wp super cache as that will give you the most advantage to speed up your site. "

Well I did just that ( uninstalled w3 total cache and installed wp super cache ). I g**gled for the best settings for wp super cache, configured wp super cache. AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW!!!!

My site suddenly from the irritating 22 seconds to load went down to a little over 2 seconds. the slowest that I found it loads now is 4 seconds.

SO JIPPYYYY!!! my site at-last feels like a normal website again.
 
OriginalEXE, I have another thing that I can't get to the bottom of it.

With the Geoplaces theme that I send you, when you go to a Listing page, on the right sidebar there is 2 options : " Send Inquiry | Send to Friend " Going to either one of them,
and filling in the options there is some type of Captha at the bottom, Every time I fill these in and it is correct. an error come's up telling me that " Enter Correct verification Code " I don't know why or what or where. hate it when this happens. Would appreciate any help. Thank you!!

Try this:

Go to your theme folder /library/includes

Open files email_friend_frm.php and send_inquiry_frm.php and change line 4 to look like this:

PHP: 
if(!function_exists('pt_check_captch_cond'))

Tell me if that worked.

Once saved, look at the directory where you saved the .po file. You should also get .mo file. You wil need both .po and .mo file, so upload them both to your lang folder (the one you downloaded original .po file from).

I can't test the theme locally because it does not work on latest WP, but by looking at the code, I see you need to enter the email in the field when posting a new listing. Do you have email entered in the listing post?
 
Great posts.. Quick question. I have a site with lots of pages, not posts. I want to categorize them but you can only use categories on posts..any way around this? I want to use the widget Azon Click Magnet but without categories its useless and cannot be specific.

Having many pages is not very good for WordPress as it can cause slow-down.

Why don't you convert your pages to post's? Try using this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ptypeconverter/
 
Just found the answer to my above question..lol....a plugin called n.i.n.j.a. Pages works a treat ( had to put the dots in the word because it would not let me display it otherwise)

Yes, I have entered an email, also with the send to friend option it ask the senders email as well as the person you want to send it to. I enter all these details and get a Successfully send message.
but both emails is my email accounts for testing but I don't receive any email on any of the.

My contact us page does work and I do receive those email.

Strange Im using the latest version of WP too and theme seems to work fine except for the issues that I have mentioned in this thread.

Hope you can help, thx O
