Yes, that's perfectly the way it's supposed to be.

Bruce, you could try using s9y in embedded mode and/or setting a special variable inside index.php: $_GET['categoryid'] = 4; $_REQUEST['categoryid'] = 4; Though you'd have to find the right place to set this and make some if-conditions to only set this category if none has been defined. Personally I...

I just tried this plugin, and I can see how it would be quite useful to me. Is there any reason why you neither you don't "use nor encourage the use of" this plugin? Are there security issues or is it just "better practice" to write one's own plugin? cheers; sol It's both of the...

Hi Sol! Thanks so much for your kind words, I really appreciate this! Sad to hear that you like my blog but can't access it; I would've done it in english, but I felt more "honest" my keeping it in my mother tongue; however I have a google-translation link at the bottom of my page, if you ...

Hi! You can see the comments + entry by clicking on the title link (vossi.at/archives/XX_.html. The comments page will always only display the comments because that's a de-facto standard on blogging applications. If you only want to have the title link available you could hide the "comment"...

Hm, sorry - I don't personally use opera so I don't know what's causing trouble; on mozilla and IE it works good.

If you are somewhat familar with CSS, please play around with the templates/mt-trendy/style.css file and see if you can make tweaks so it works in Opera?

Thanks,
Garvin.

Hi Sol! What you seem to need is what's described as 'embedded blog' in our Wiki-Documentation on www.s9y.org. The basic idea is described there, so you can create a php script DOC_ROOT/index.html which calls and gathers the content from DOC_ROOT/news/index.php and displays the content. The links th...

Hi have you really got a feed directory? I don´t. I just remember a different output eg of the 2.0 rss link. Has something essential changed? Well, if I look in the page source all seems well..... The feed directory does not need to exist. The right output is generated by the 404 apache errorhandle...

Hi Bruce! I'm delighted to hear your issues are resolved! Great! Regarding the image upload stuff: All the files dealign with this are: * serendipity_admin_image_selector.php (the popup window to select an image) * serendipity_admin_images.inc.php (image upload and maintaining) * serendipity_functio...

Hi Bruce! 4: New ie window with code in it only opens, copied code. This should never happen, how does the window look like exactly? Can you provide a screenshot? If possible, can you please try the same thing in Mozilla browser and open the JavaScript console and log any errors than occur, if any? ...

The same here....if something newer than RC1 installed.... I'm waiting for the new full release. 0.6-RC2 works here for me for inserting images. The 0.6.1/0.7/latest CVS snapshot had an error in the image insertion which has just been fixed. Bruce's troubles with uploading images do not exist here,...

Thanks for the quick reply. Since you don't recommend this plugin is there another better way to get PHP output in the sidebars? Yes, of course there is! That's what plugins are usually meant to - you create a plugin for everything you want, and NOT use a general plugin like the PHP one. Just take ...

This has been added as a new feature to the current CVS version and not been backported to the 0.6 branch. If you want to patch it manually, it's easy and can be seen on http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/php-blog/serendipity/serendipity_functions.inc.php?r1=1.255&r2=1.256 But as that is a po...

I guess that you entered a "%" character into the shout?

The plugin uses a printf() function in line 193. Please replace that with echo() and everything should work fine. I also put this fix into CVS now, but that may take a while to propagate.

No, there currently is no way to only print portions of it. There are some proof-of-concept methods found on our s9y.org wiki, section Plugins to split a template up into parts and use other template preprocessors. If you need more flexible tuning you should conside editing the layout.php of your ch...
