Something else to be aware of, or at least that I ran into over the course of the past week, is related to how WP 2.1 now handles/treats “static” pages.
I ran into major problems when I created a new page (after upgrading), as the new page wouldn’t work right with Sideblog (404 errors would get displayed).
I think that it was caused by my having ‘asides’ as the default category, and this was somehow getting attached to the new pages I created. Once I changed the default category to something other than my ‘asides’ category (which is what Sideblog is set to use/filter/display), things started working again.
There’s still something that needs to be tweaked in the plugin, but at least now there is (I think) a reasonable workaround…
Hey Kate - Thanks for the update to Sideblog, it’s a great plugin. Have a question about a minor adjustment. I’d like to create some space between my sideblog entries, they’re too tight right now. What code do I need to tweak for that?
Thanks Katie, that worked. However, now I’m getting this on a post not in the main page:
WordPress database error: [Not unique table/alias: 'newnmk_post2cat']
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS DISTINCT newnmk_posts.* FROM newnmk_posts LEFT JOIN newnmk_post2cat ON (newnmk_posts.ID = newnmk_post2cat.post_id) LEFT JOIN newnmk_categories ON (newnmk_post2cat.category_id = newnmk_categories.cat_ID) LEFT JOIN newnmk_post2cat ON ( newnmk_posts.ID = newnmk_post2cat.post_id) WHERE 1=1 AND (((post_title LIKE ‘%press%’) OR (post_content LIKE ‘%press%’))) AND category_id IN (0) AND (post_type = ‘post’ AND (post_status = ‘publish’ OR post_status = ‘future’ OR post_status = ‘draft’ OR post_status = ‘private’)) AND category_id NOT IN (19,1) GROUP BY newnmk_posts.ID ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 0, 20
A couple of my friends want to setup a forum for our little hobby. Looked at some free and open source forum softwares but went with Drupal in the end. I know drupal isn't a forum software but it has one as a module.
