IE issue when using Wordpress 2.7 (IE 6, 7, 8) troubleshooting

March 9th, 2010
IE issue when using Wordpress 2.7 (IE 6, 7, 8)

I was running this live blog with thousands of visitors for a gaming site, the issue I noticed was that none of IE version was loading sidebar and footer when tried to visit this blog. I had rolled back all my svn changes. When I run that blog on local with empty db on local it doesn’t produce issue. When I tried using live db downloading on local I could produce the issue. Now I tried removing contents of elements as well as indented elements and made sure every tag has closing tag but did not work. I also tried Tidy an Add-on for Firefox that currently only supports Windows platform. My frustration was increasing finally I decided to go out and take an hour walk despite it was very windy and cold that my eyes were tearing and then I got back. I thought may be it’s number of posts which are so many if I reduce them and test how it reacts and finally it worked. I logged in to blog admin, clicked to Settings, Reading and changed 10 to 5 posts by the label “Blog pages show at most”. Thought people out there should not face 2 days on this type of issue and use this post to save time.

Wordpress Highlight comments by multiple Authors.

March 8th, 2010

<![CDATA

IN Comments.php ADD FOLLOWING RIGHT BEFORE FIRST <ol element that contains comment_author_link():

<?php

$users = get_users_of_blog();

foreach( $users as $user ) {

$role = array_pop( array_keys( unserialize($user->meta_value) ) ); // yeah, I know, looks awkward :)

$user_id = $user->user_id;

if ( $role != 'subscriber' ) // collect id of anyone whose role is greater than 'subscriber'

$roles[ $user_id ] = $role;

}

?>

<style>

#commentlist li { border:2px solid white; } /* not logged or subscriber */

#commentlist li.administrator { border:2px solid red } /* blog admin */

#commentlist li.author { border:2px solid blue } /* author */

#commentlist li.editor { border:2px solid yellow } /* editor */

</style>

NOW EDIT THE FIRST <ol ELEMENT WHICH SHOULD LOOK SIMILAR TO:

<ol id=”commentlist”>

<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>

<li>

<p>By <?php comment_author_link() ?> – <?php comment_date() ?></p>

<?php comment_text() ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ol>

AFTER ADDING FOLLOWING:

<?php // The extra stuff to get commenter’s role

$user_id = $comment->user_id;

$role = ( isset( $roles[$user_id] ) ? $roles[$user_id] : ” );

?>

class=”<?php echo $role; ?>”

SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS:

<ol id=”commentlist”>

<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>

<?php // The extra stuff to get commenter’s role

$user_id = $comment->user_id;

$role = ( isset( $roles[$user_id] ) ? $roles[$user_id] : ” );

?>

<li>

<p>By <?php comment_author_link() ?> – <?php comment_date() ?></p>

<?php comment_text() ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ol>

CREATE AUTHOR AND SUSBCRIBER USERS IN WORDPRESS ADMIN, WRITE DUMMY COMMENTS AND TEST THAT.
