^^These are called blockquotes as you see in mags

Every wordpress theme has one, but you may need to apply some css to get the desired one

I am unable to insert images using imageshack uploader plugin. It says something missing on line blah blah blah..

And so I tried using the inbuilt image uploader of wordpress. I have images uploaded on imageshack, so I selected upload from URL.

Now what should I input under the Source field? which is above the URl field? :confused:

Turbo Charge Your Wordpress Dashboard!



*img79.imageshack.us/img79/882/gearcf1.png

This small tip is for “people who are not aware of Turbo feature in wordpress dashboard” only.

Turbo is a feature that lets you to store your entire wordpress dashboard aka the admin panel’s CSS/PHP and other core files locally on your computer, which enables faster navigation inside your wordpress dashboard. All this is done by using Google Gears. And (un)fortunately, Google Gears is only available for Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. Just keep in mind that Turbo is available only from Wordpress 2.5 or so.

Friends, I need help. Got some queries:

1. With reference to the screenshot below, how to put these About, Privacy and Disclaimer Pages in the Footer of the Blog?

2. How to put categories in place of Pages location as shown in screenshot below:

Re: Wordpress Bloggers Please Help

1) create separate pages in wordpress, one each for 'privacy policy' etc and set them as 'private' so that they don't show-up anywhere.

next there will be 'footer.php' file in your theme files. open that file and just create links as you want (in this case near the copyright text) and link them to the wordpress pages.


2) DISCLAIMER: This step needs more info and explanation :p


open 'header.php' file from your theme files. find where this code is:

PHP:
<?php wp_list_pages(' '); ?>

and replace it with

PHP:
<?php wp_list_categories(' '); ?>


the theme you have might have diff. arguments in the function (stuff inside the single quotes ' '). for more info about the code refer these pages

*codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages

*codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories


I guess you can get more elegant step by step instructions on the web if you search properly :D

Hi plz help me.....

I recently moved into a new host and the procedure i used to transfer my blog is

I had taken a backup of wpcontent and transferred that into my new host.
After that i installed a fresh copy of wordpress from Fantastico and then replaced the new content folder from the old backup one.

Took database backup from Wp dbmanager and restored that on the new host

everything looked fine but now when i post i cant upload any thing.
nor image nor any file or cant install a plugin. The error i get it
The uploaded file could not be moved to /home/xxxxxx/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2009/02.

Added this code also which i found while searching

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

but still it didnt work

What Wrong did i do while backup and whats the solution for that??

Operation timed out means the Server is load so its taking long time to respond, better contact your webhosting support:)


ask them to transfer files on your behalf
if you are moving from Cpanel to Cpanel, you can also use 1-click Backup & Restore feature;)

Did you check the file permissions? looks like your permissions are messed up
