WordPress Tips :: Are Your Permalinks Dead in V 2.6?

Becky — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 02:51:29 +0000

If you recently upgraded to WordPress 2.6 and suddenly your pretty permalinks don't work properly, or at all... and if your "more" or "page" features aren't working (usually a related problem), there is a temporary fix you can put in place.

Wordpress Tips :: Beating the <!–more–> Tag into Submission

Becky — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 18:09:03 +0000

When you don't want to have long articles displayed in full on multi-post pages, like the index page, Wordpress has a nifty little "tool" you can invoke by inserting a special tag into your post content called the "more" tag.

I never thought I would say this, but DO NOT UPGRADE TO OPERA 9.5.x of any version or flavor.

If I wanted a dumbed down browser for the masses, there are two that pop to mind (Firefox for the wanna-be-geeks, and IE for the typical apathetic mass user). Why did you have to ruin Opera for the rest of us????
