I didn't write the code for it, but in general, allowing users to get sloppy with the configuration is a Bad Idea. Checking code and emiting warnings is one thing, but altering configuration data is a whole other...I think it may be more important that the notice to include the trailing slash was in ...

Hi Francisco,

General questions do indeed go in this forum. I think questions about using plugins would fit well in the plugins forum...

Brett

It may be wise, but the admin page does say explicitly "Do not forget trailing slashes for directories!" and it even gives examples...At least if you're using the English localization...

Make sure you have a trailing / in the paths section. Ex:

/var/www/blog should be /var/www/blog/

IIRC, there's not a way to export all entries through livejournal...
You can import XML files through s9y, but it won't help if you can only grab one month at a time...

You could write a script to parse the livejournal pages, strip out the non-entry content, and then stuff it into the database ...

One possibility I could see for this would be the ability to make "private" entries...eg, entries for a personal journal that isn't world readable. These entries would be better suited to be in a hidden category than to be saved as drafts...

Just my thoughts

But when you configure the plugin where is the data stored?

puzzled!

In the SQL database
(Hint, check out your (prefix)_config table)

I shouldn't have said that they don't have it configured properly...that's a bit of my bad experiences speaking...;)

What you are experiencing is very common, but there are steps the provider could take to help avoid it. Basically the problem is that apache, the httpd server, is running as user ...

"There is no other solution for this, than to let us know, and we will fix the ownership of files."

This may be an issue with virtual hosting, which is so common these days and at the price-point for blogging.

i have to admit at $2.95/mth for one domain and $4.95 for ~10 domains ...

After having the guide reviewed by a lot of folks at a certain Mac forum, however, it had been pointed out that one should have the permissions set at 750 / 640 after the ownership of the folders is given to the webserver user, not 755 / 644. I think s9y install guide also mentions pretty much the ...

Hrm...

Do your apache error logs provide any insight?
When you say "every page," do you mean just if you try to access a page in s9y, or every single page on your server?

Brett

Hi,

First, are you aware of the security flaw in the version of s9y you're currently running? You should upgrade immediately if you haven't taken precautions...See blog.s9y.org for more info..

And secondly, you should be able to grab the full entries by installing the Syndication Sidebar Plugin ...

No problem...And call me Brett ;)

I was thinking, though, that this may cause problems when trying to upgrade. One of the lead developers may want to say something about that.

I think that as long as you extract the package you're trying to upgrade as root, and make sure it has the right ...

Hi,

You will want to keep the directories at 755 (because they need to be executable) and the files at 644. This is, of course, if you have then owned by your web-server users, which is recommended. You could also look into suphp, which will allow PHP to run with "normal" users privileges...

S9y ...

It would be nice if there was a hook that allowed displaying of additional information on plugin configuration pages. I know I can add such a hook myself (and I have done so), but when I upgrade I will have to remember to do so again so that my custom plugins don't crap out.

Thanks.

Hi,

Why not ...
