WordPress Formatting

Rant, WordPress 1 Comment »

I need to confirm this, but I think WordPress has a couple “bugs”, which are getting on my nerves. First, I explicitly set the paragraph formatting to justified. Meaning, I highlight each paragraph and apply the justify property as needed.

Why does WordPress assume that any and all text after the justified paragraph is justified too? How does Word handle this? I copied the text from a post, explicitly justified some of the paragraphs and inserted new text. The new text does not inherit the justified format.

Second, I have noticed that a justified paragraph after a list does not justify the text. The justify property is set, so what is the problem? Is this a bug? It may not be WordPress, but something is wrong here. Is the CSS hosed? Arggh!

Post Rating Plugin

Note that I have installed a new AJAX-enabled post rating plugin. Both registered users and guests can rate the posts, so go ahead and rate the posts and tell us what you think about the content.

The plugin required editing of the index.php page, so I took the opportunity to rewrite the PHP code. The previous version was whacked, so I added the plugin code and re-formatted the page monk-style. Enjoy.

WordPress 2.3.3

Blog, WordPress No Comments »

WassupJose.com has been upgraded to WordPress 2.3.3. I will enable the plugins as soon as I finish upgrading a couple of other sites to version 2.3.3. Also, I found a bug in the current template that I need to fix. The broken formatting when previewing is burning my eyes.

WordPress Code Tag Sucks!

I am trying to post WTF worthy code snippets, but WordPress keeps modifying the code. I assume WordPress is parsing the code or rendering the HTML or JavaScript. This is stupid, now I have to look for an alternate method to post the coding horrors.

WordPress 2.3.3

As much as I like the WordPress platform it has its share of security problems. The 2.3.3 is an URGENT security release, which addresses a flaw in the XML-RPC implementation. What does this mean? I have to upgrade seven copies of WordPress! Argggh!
