More Useful Privatizing in Wordpress

Wednesday, March 22, 2006 8:41 No Comments

As I get this user levels thing situated, I am making many posts from the past few weeks private. If, over to the right, you are not greeted by name and you see a statement saying you are not logged in, you will need to log in to see those posts.

Please let me know if you have difficulty logging in.

If you are using a URL other than /blog/wp, it will tell you you are not logged in but when you click login, you will be logged in. I’ll be moving the blog soon to /blog so this shouldnt be such an issue then. Sorry. I figure if you really want to read it, it’s worth the extra click.

As long as I actually call it like http://www.ponderethereal.com/asperger/index.php, it works ok.. but if you go to http://www.ponderethereal.com/asperger/, it gives the following message :
“The requested URL /cgi-sys/php-fastcgi/test/index.php was not found on this server.”

Wordpress Edit Interface - Search by Category

Saturday, February 19, 2005 21:42 1 Comment

It has always been useful for me to be able to search by category in the edit interface. For instance, if I add a sub category and need to sort all of the main category posts into the new sub category, I need to be able to upull up all of the posts in the main category. So 1 day into the new version and I’m already hacking it! :)

Sooo… in the new version of Wordpres (1.5) it is super easy to do. The following hack is applied to the edit.php file.
